First molecular diagnosis of the human pathogen Rickettsia raoultii and other spotted fever group rickettsiae in Sudanese ixodid ticks from domestic ruminants. [PDF]

Vet Med Sci
In this manuscript, the authors collected ixodid ticks and examined the presence of Rickettsia species by PCR. By performing sequencing and phylogenetic analysis, the authors identified the presence of four different Rickettsia species in three tick species found on three mammalian hosts.

Isolation and Characterization of Rickettsia finnyi, Novel Pathogenic Spotted Fever Group Rickettsia in Dogs, United States [PDF]

Emerging Infectious Diseases
In 2020, a novel spotted fever group Rickettsia was described in 3 clinically ill dogs in the United States. Using naturally infected canine blood, the novel Rickettsia sp. was isolated in epithelial (Vero E6) and mononuclear (DH82 and 030D) cell lines.

Molecular Profiling of Ticks and Associated Pathogens: First Report of <i>Rickettsia sibirica</i>, <i>Rickettsia slovaca</i>, and <i>Babesia microti</i> in Ticks From Pakistan. [PDF]

Transbound Emerg Dis
Global distribution of ticks and their associated tick‐borne pathogens (TBPs) presents substantial health concerns for both humans and animals. The present study aimed to investigate the distribution, morpho‐molecular identification, and associated TBPs of diverse tick species collected from Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Punjab provinces of Pakistan ...
