摘要: Ticks affect human and animal health both directly by their blood feeding indirectly transmission of many disease-causing bacteria, such as Rickettsia, Ehrlichia, Borrelia, Coxiella, Cowdria, Anaplasma, Aegyptionella, Tularemia, well viruses (Piesman Gage, 1996). In addition to these infectious agents, ticks harbor bacterial endosymbionts, Wolbachia persica, which was first isolated from the soft tick now classified Argus arboreus (Suitor Weiss, 1961).
