The vector competence of ticks is tightly linked with their immune system. Despite its importance, our knowledge of tick innate immunity is rather limited and lags behind other blood-feeding vectors. This chapter summarizes and provides an overview of the up-to date achievements in the research of cellular immune reactions and immune molecules in numerous tick species.
