RICKETTSIA DETECTED IN IXODES GRANULATUS (IXODIDAE: ACARI) FROM

Abstract. A unique Rickettsia species (Rickettsia thailandii sp. nov.) was identified in an Ixodes granulatus by use of polymerase chain reaction heteroduplex mobility assay by use of segments of the citrate synthase gene. This tick was collected from Rattus rattus from Nakhon Ratchasima province in...
