Parasitisme des tiques (Ixodidae) des bovins à Tiaret, Algérie

Abstract: Afin de mieux cerner le problème des nuisances et des maladies transmises par les tiques (Ixodidae) aux bovins en Algérie, l’auteur a étudié les caractères saisonniers de leur activité parasitaire dans la région de Tiaret (Algérie). De janvier à décembre, sur un échantillon de 1 240 bovins examinés, 368 étaient infestés par des tiques, d’où un taux d’infestation globale d’environ 30 p. 100. La charge parasitaire mensuelle maximale a été de cinq tiques par animal. Parmi 3 975 tiques collectées, 13 espèces ont é… Show more

“…This is based on the premise that optimal climate is needed for the completion of tick life cycles (Ogden et al ., ). In the case of H. truncatum, it has been noted that adult activity in the genus is more prevalent during the warmer months (South Africa: Londt et al ., ; Algeria: Boulkaboul, ), a finding also supported by the higher prevalence of Crimean‐Congo haemorrhagic fever during these times (Bente et al ., ). Given that the two clades of H. truncatum occur predominantly in two different hemispheres with different climate regimes, it is possible that the different breeding cycles could act as a premating isolation mechanism between these clades.…”

“…Indeed, the data suggest that the most recent range expansions for H. truncatum coincides with 100 ka wet and dry cycles documented for the continent (deMenocal, , ; Maslin & Christensen, ; Campisano, ). During periods of unfavourable climate changes, the climatically sensitive H. truncatum (Londt et al ., ; Yousfi‐Monod & Aeschlimann, ; Boulkaboul, ) experiences population declines where they persisted in single refugia (several in the north and one in the south). When the habitat became more favourable they expanded throughout the host ranges, providing a pattern of shared haplotypes throughout southern Africa and also to a lesser extent throughout west Africa (where stronger contemporary biogeographical barriers exist among populations).…”

“…No infestation was observed throughout the study period in goats. This may be due to the immunity of these hosts (Boulkaboul, 2003), or the biotic (climate and environment) and abiotic (age, sex, race and immunity) factors that influence tick infestation prevalence (Dantas-Torres, 2010; Domșa et al, 2016).…”

“…In Algeria, few studies have addressed the pathogenic role, biodiversity and dynamics of tick populations (Boulkaboul, 2003). In this sense, such studies are rare in the arid regions of Algeria.…”

“…Hyalomma detritum ), is also present in this area. This species has been the most frequently recorded from several surveys conducted in Algeria [3, 4]. Many approaches have been used for tick management such as biological control using pathogens or predators, pheromone-assisted control, herbal pour-on or dip preparations including green manufactured nanoparticles [5], and vaccination [6].…”
