Genotypes of <i>Coxiella burnetii</i> in wildlife: disentangling the molecular epidemiology of a multi‐host pathogen
23 Jun 2016
Abstract excerpt
Evidences point to a relevant role of wildlife in the ecology of Coxiella burnetii worldwide. The lack of information on C. burnetii genotypes in wildlife prevents tracing-back clinical animal and human Q fever cases with potential wildlife origin. To compare C. burnetii genotypes circulating in wildlife, livestock and humans, 107 samples from red deer, European wild rabbit, racoon, small mammals, goat and sheep...
