Detection and Genetic Diversity of Heritable Bacterial Symbionts in Human Lice Based on 16S‐rRNA Gene

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 1, February 2026.
Candidatus Riesia pediculicola and Wolbachia were found in 79.6% and 95.2% of head lice, and 81.8% and 100% of body lice. Candidatus Riesia pthiripubis and Wolbachia appeared in 41.7% and 75% of pubic lice. Maximum‐likelihood 16S‐rRNA phylogeny revealed substantial heterogeneity within symbiont populations. ABSTRACT Human lice are obligate bloodsucking
