Although Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus, the tropical/southern cattle tick, and Rhipicephalus sanguineus, the brown dog tick, are widespread in the Caribbean (24), they have not been implicated as vectors of R. After fully characterizing the protein in African cattle ticks, the researchers genetically engineered certain cells to produce it. Subsequently, numerous cases have been reported in tourists returning from southern Africa, where the cattle tick Amblyomma hebraeum is the vector (2,3). |
