Fig. 1

Origin of German wild boar sera analyzed utilizing the indirect antibody ELISA against salivary gland extract of O. erraticus ticks. Sampled areas are highlighted in grey and positive results are indicated by category in the adjacent table. Categorization of sera is done according to the sample to positive ratio (SP). The categories reflect the potential presence of Ornithodoros ticks in the respective regions from “negligible (0)” to “very likely (+++)” as defined in Table 1. NRW = North Rhine-Westphalia; RP = Rhineland-Palatinate; MWP = Mecklenburg-Western Pomarania; BB = Brandenburg. Copyright for the map by Geobasis-DE / BKG / GeoNutzV
