摘要

Ixodes ticks are obligate parasites that show host preferences and differentiation during each of their 3 active life stages and may obtain or transmit pathogens during feeding that pose threats to human health. These ticks are responsible for the transmission of Borrelia burgdorferi, causative agent of Lyme Disease. Historically, ticks and B. burgdoferi have been well studied due to this human threat. However, wildlife hosts other than mice or deer that may serve as reservoirs for tick species are often overlooked as a part of this web. In this study, we surveyed 40,000+ manuscripts and identified those that considered wildlife hosts when studying Ixodes scapularis(Blacklegged Tick). We found that there appears to be a taxonomic bias in research on wildlife hosts and that this may be contributing to a continued lack of knowledge about potential transmission and management of Blacklegged Ticks or Lyme Disease. Collectively, these findings suggest that more information is needed on wildlife hosts and tick-host ecology, particularly that of birds, meso-mammals and reptiles. Finally, we propose a list of potential research questions that could help further elucidate the importance of wildlife and tick-host ecology.

Burgdoferi已经很好地研究过。然而，除了蜱型物种的垃圾桶之外的小鼠或鹿以外的野生动物宿主通常被视为本网站的一部分。在这项研究中，我们调查了40,000多种手稿，并确定了学习Ixodes Scapularis（Blacklegged Tick）时被视为野生动物主持人的手稿。我们发现野生动物主机的研究似乎是一个分类偏见，这可能导致持续缺乏关于潜在的蜱虫或莱姆病的传播和管理的知识。总的来说，这些调查结果表明，在野生动物宿主和蜱主体生态学中需要更多信息，特别是鸟类，中间哺乳动物和爬行动物的更多信息。最后，我们提出了一个潜在的研究问题清单，有助于进一步阐明野生动物和蜱主体生态的重要性。
