Rickettsia amblyommii infecting Amblyomma sculptum in endemic spotted fever area from southeastern Brazil
The Rickettsia bacteria include the aetiological agents for the human spotted fever (SF) disease. In the present study, a SF groupRickettsia amblyommii related bacterium was detected in a field collected Amblyomma sculptum (Amblyomma cajennense species complex) tick from a Brazilian SF endemic site...
