Gene gain and loss events in Rickettsia and Orientia species

open access: yesBiology Direct, 2011
Background Genome degradation is an ongoing process in all members of the Rickettsiales order, which makes these bacterial species an excellent model for studying reductive evolution through interspecies variation in genome size and gene content. In this

Acidification increases abundances of Vibrionales and Planctomycetia associated to a seaweed-grazer system: potential consequences for disease and prey digestion efficiency [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Ocean acidification significantly affects marine organisms in several ways, with complex interactions. Seaweeds might benefit from rising CO2 through increased photosynthesis and carbon acquisition, with subsequent higher growth rates.

Growth of Cowdria ruminantium, the causative agent of heartwater, in a tick cell line [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
The tick-borne rickettsia Cowdria ruminantium has been propagated continuously for over 500 days in the Ixodes scapularis tick cell line IDE8 by using the Gardel isolate from bovine endothelial cells as an inoculum.

An automated approach for the identification of horizontal gene transfers from complete genomes reveals the rhizome of Rickettsiales

open access: yesBMC Evolutionary Biology, 2012
Background Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) is considered to be a major force driving the evolutionary history of prokaryotes. HGT is widespread in prokaryotes, contributing to the genomic repertoire of prokaryotic organisms, and is particularly apparent ...

Cells within cells: Rickettsiales and the obligate intracellular bacterial lifestyle [PDF]

open access: yesNature Reviews Microbiology, 2021
The Rickettsiales are a group of obligate intracellular vector-borne Gram-negative bacteria that include many organisms of clinical and agricultural importance, including Anaplasma spp., Ehrlichia chaffeensis, Wolbachia, Rickettsia spp. and Orientia tsutsugamushi.

Two intracellular and cell type-specific bacterial symbionts in the placozoan Trichoplax H2

open access: yes, 2019
Placozoa is an enigmatic phylum of simple, microscopic, marine metazoans(1,2). Although intracellular bacteria have been found in all members of this phylum, almost nothing is known about their identity, location and interactions with their host(3-6). We

Functional and Immunological Relevance of Anaplasma marginale Major Surface Protein 1a Sequence and Structural Analysis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Bovine anaplasmosis is caused by cattle infection with the tick-borne bacterium, Anaplasma marginale. The major surface protein 1a (MSP1a) has been used as a genetic marker for identifying A.

Extensive genetic diversity of Rickettsiales bacteria in multiple mosquito species [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2016
AbstractRickettsiales are important zoonotic pathogens, causing severe disease in humans globally. Although mosquitoes are an important vector for diverse pathogens, with the exception of members of the genusWolbachialittle is known about their role in the transmission of Rickettsiales.
