Vliv infekce klíšťat Ixodes ricinus virem klíšťové encefalitidy na jejich aktivitu / Effect of infection with the tick-borne encephalitis virus on Ixodes ricinus tick activity

The aim of this study was to examine the effect of tick infection with tick-borne encephalitis virus on its behaviour and development. The effect of infection on feeding performance, metamorphosis, locomotion or phototaxis was analysed. Despite the fact that we were not able to demonstrate any significant effect of infection on tick behaviour, the obtained results contribute to understanding transmission dynamics of the virus during tick life cycle including co-feeding and transovarial transmission.
