RickA expression is not sufficient to promote actin-based motility of Rickettsia raoultii. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2008 BACKGROUND: Rickettsia raoultii is a novel Rickettsia species recently isolated from Dermacentor ticks and classified within the spotted fever group (SFG). The inability of R. raoultii to spread within L929 cells suggests that this bacterium is unable to

Rickettsia raoultii in Haemaphysalis erinacei from marbled polecats, China–Kazakhstan border [PDF]
Parasites & Vectors, 2015 We found Rickettsia raoultii DNA in 2 out of 32 (6.25 %) Haemaphysalis erinacei ticks. Result showed that the sequences of five genes (17-kDa, gltA, ompA, rrs, and ompB) were 100 % identity with that of R. Raoultii in GenBank.
