Tracking the increase of acaricide resistance in an invasive population of cattle fever ticks, Rhipicephalus microplus (Acari: Ixodidae), and implementation of real-time PCR assays to rapidly genotype resistance mutations
2020-07-01
Abstract excerpt
The invasive southern cattle fever tick, Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus, occurs in the U.S. only in the permanent quarantine zone along the international border in south Texas as incursions from Mexico. Intensive acaricide treatment of cattle herds in Mexico to reduce tick populations resulted in the development of resistance to an array of acaricides. Resistance to permethrin increased both in incidence and...
