Novel Clade of Rickettsia spp. from Leeches

1 Feb 2002

Abstract excerpt

Intracellular rickettsia-like structures were found in the tissues of a glossiphoniid leech, Torix tagoi, by transmission electron microscopy. Diagnostic PCR analysis using specific primers suggested that of the nine glossiphoniid species examined, two species, T. tagoi and Hemicrepsis marginata, harbored bacteria of the genus Rickettsia. A 1.5-kb eubacterial 16S rRNA gene segment obtained from each of these...
