TRANSCRIPT

Order: Acarina (Tick)

Introduction

Blood sucking arthopods Most important vectors of human and animal diseases Life threatening vector (rank second; 1st Mosquitos)Transmit greater variety of infections agentsPest of man, animal and wildlife Server toxic condition (Tick Parasysis, Tick Toxicosis)Economic lossesTick-borne diseases major threat to livestock industry Costs billions of dollars annually to protect livestock from

ticks and tick-borne diseases

Life cycle of One Host tickEach stage feeds and developed on One Host

14

Complete Metamophosis

Oviposition

Tick: A presentation by MAAlim, CVASU

Life cycle of two Host tickLarva and Nymph feed on one host and adult ticks on a second host

15Tick: A presentation by MAAlim, CVASU

Life cycle of three Host tickEach stage feeds and developed on different Host

16Tick: A presentation by MAAlim, CVASU

17

Life cycle of soft tick (Multi host L/C) Several oviposition

7 nymphal stages

Tick: A presentation by MAAlim, CVASU

1. Trans-stadial : (stage to stage/One life stage to Next)

2. Trans-ovarian (Parent to progeny/ one generation to Next)

Vector Competency:

Strategies for Questing (seek) the host1. Hunter

2. Ambush (Waiter)

18

Diapauses

1. Morphogenetic diapasue

2. Behavioural diapause (most common)

Water balance by unfed tick

In adverse condition, Life cycle of Tick fall in tow dilemmas :How to maintain their energyHow maintain water balance

Have to counteract Overhydration (during feeding)(reinjection water into salivary secretion by Fcell of Type III Acini)

Have to counteract with dehydration (during fasting)

Prevention of dehydration:

Physical barriers

Physiological adaption

Behavioural Mechanisms

Can call some restore mechanisms for rehydration:

Passive water vapour absorption though cuticle

Catabolic and Anabolic water production

Active absorption of water (Type I salivary acini)
