Rats of the Genus<i>Rattus</i>are Reservoir Hosts for Pathogenic<i>Bartonella</i>Species: An Old World Origin for a New World Disease?

1 Jul 1999

Abstract excerpt

Bartonella species were isolated from the blood of 63 of 325 Rattus norvegicus and 11 of 92 Rattus rattus from 13 sites in the United States and Portugal. Infection in both Rattus species ranged from 0% (e.g., 0/87) to approximately 60% (e.g., 35/62). A 337-bp fragment of the citrate synthase (gltA) gene amplified by polymerase chain reaction was sequenced from all 74 isolates. Isolates from R. norvegicus were...
