Effect of rodent density on tick and tick-borne pathogen populations: consequences for infectious disease risk

BACKGROUND: Rodents are considered to contribute strongly to the risk of tick-borne diseases by feeding Ixodes ricinus larvae and by acting as amplifying hosts for pathogens. Here, we tested to what extent these two processes depend on rodent density, and for which pathogen species rodents synergist...
