Francisella tularensis Subspecies holarctica and Tularemia in Germany

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2020
Tularemia is a zoonotic disease caused by Francisella tularensis a small, pleomorphic, facultative intracellular bacterium. In Europe, infections in animals and humans are caused mainly by Francisella tularensis subspecies holarctica.

Metapopulation structure for perpetuation of Francisella tularensis tularensis [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Microbiology, 2009
AbstractBackgroundOutbreaks of Type A tularemia due toFrancisella tularensis tularensisare typically sporadic and unstable, greatly hindering identification of the determinants of perpetuation and human risk. Martha's Vineyard, Massachusetts has experienced an outbreak of Type A tularemia which has persisted for 9 years.

Francisella tularensis,Portugal

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2007
To the Editor: Tularemia is a zoonosis caused by Francisella tularensis. Recently, tularemia has emerged in new locations, populations, and settings (1). After an outbreak in Spain in 1997 (2), it was expected that the disease would spread toward Portugal, a country with an extended area that borders the affected areas.

Putting the Jigsaw Together - A Brief Insight Into the Tularemia

open access: yesOpen Life Sciences, 2015
Tularemia is a debilitating febrile and potentially fatal zoonotic disease of humans and other vertebrates caused by the Gram-negative bacterium Francisella tularensis. The natural reservoirs are small rodents, hares, and possibly amoebas in water.
