Mutualistic interactions with microbes have facilitated the adaptation of major eukaryotic lineages to restricted diet niches. Hence, ticks their strictly blood-feeding lifestyle are associated intracellular bacterial symbionts through an essential B vitamin supplementation. In this study, examination diversity in 25 tick species genus Amblyomma showed that three bacteria, Coxiella-like endosymbionts (LE), Francisella-LE and Rickettsia, remarkably common. No other bacterium is as uniformly...
Abstract Rickettsia are obligate intracellular bacteria often associated with ticks and best known for causing human diseases (rickettsiosis), including typhus fever sporadic cases of serious infection. In this study, we conducted a large survey in French Guiana to understand the overall diversity remote area largely covered by dense rainforests. Out 819 individuals (22 tick species six genera), 252 (30.8%) samples were positive Multilocus typing phylogenetic analysis identified 19...
