Dissemination of bloodmeal acquired Rickettsia felis in cat fleas, Ctenocephalides felis [PDF]
Parasites & Vectors, 2013 Cat fleas, Ctenocephalides felis, are known biological vectors for Rickettsia felis. Rickettsial transmission can be vertical via transovarial transmission within a flea population, as well as horizontal between fleas through a bloodmeal. The previously undescribed infection kinetics of bloodmeal-acquired R. felis in cat fleas provides insight into the
