Quantitative study of Rickettsia massiliae in Rhipicephalus sanguineus organs [PDF]

Ticks and Tick-borne Diseases, 2014
Rickettsia massiliae, belonging to the spotted fever group of Rickettsia, is a human pathogen causing a similar course of disease to that caused by R. conorii, the originally recognized etiologic agent of Mediterranean spotted fever. In view of this similarity, we performed an ultrastructural study of R.
