Rickettsiales in South America: A Systematic Review of Their Molecular Detection and Distribution in Arthropods and Vertebrates

open access: yesPublic Health Challenges, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Bacteria of the order Rickettsiales comprise a diverse group of obligate intracellular microorganisms that are globally distributed and highly prevalent in tropical and subtropical regions. In South America, these bacteria have been associated with arthropod vectors, such as ticks, fleas, mites, lice, and certain dipterans, as well as with a ...

An epidemiological and serological study of Rickettsia in Western Australia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The study was aimed at investigating Western Australian rickettsiae, delving deeper into the epidemiology of a recently described rickettsia, Rickettsia gravesii, and any other rickettsiae lurking in the Western Australian bush. Prior to the discovery of

Data from: Horizontal transmission of Rickettsia felis between cat fleas, Ctenocephalides felis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Rickettsia felis is a rickettsial pathogen primarily associated with the cat flea, Ctenocephalides felis. Although laboratory studies have confirmed that R. felis is maintained by transstadial and transovarial transmission in C.

Molecular evidence for the presence of Rickettsia Felis in the feces of wild-living African apes. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Rickettsia felis is a common emerging pathogen detected in mosquitoes in sub-Saharan Africa. We hypothesized that, as with malaria, great apes may be exposed to the infectious bite of infected mosquitoes and release R.

Impacts of rodents in piggeries in Australia – review and pilot impact study

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 3, Page 2177-2189, March 2026.
Rodent impacts in Australian piggeries are under‐researched, with limited data on economic losses and control costs. A review and pilot study found average losses of AUD$100 000 annually. Key concerns include disease, damage, and control expenses.

Coevolution and Functional Effects of Endosymbiotic Rickettsia in Leptocybe invasa Fisher & LaSalle (Hymenoptera: Eulophidae) Across China

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
Two distinct lineages of L. invasa and the dominant endosymbiont, Rickettsia, was identified, followed by an analysis of its infection density across various developmental stages and tissues of L. invasa. Furthermore, two distinct strains of the Rickettsia endosymbiont were detected, and the phylogenetic relationships between these strains and their L.
