Factors influencing the selection of Rhipicephalus microplus resistance to acaricides

Key Points

• Resistance to acaricides is influenced by a variety of biological factors and environmental conditions.
• Indications show that both genetic and environmental factors significantly impact the selection of resistance.
• This observational analysis included multiple ecological factors affecting Rhipicephalus microplus populations over time.
• Improved understanding of these factors may support effective strategies to combat tick resistance.
