Diversity within Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato genospecies in Switzerland by recA gene sequence.

FEMS microbiology letters - 1 Sept 2004

Casati Simona, Bernasconi Marco V, Gern Lise, Piffaretti Jean-Claude

Abstract excerpt

A total of 874 Ixodes ricinus ticks were collected in Switzerland to investigate the genetic diversity of the Borrelia population. We integrated to the RT-PCR method the DNA sequence analysis of a 162-bp fragment of the recA gene. Five genospecies were detected: Borrelia afzelii, Borrelia burgdorferi s.s., Borrelia garinii, Borrelia valaisiana, and Borrelia lusitaniae. A heterogeneous distribution was observed...
