The cytoplasmic 120 kDa antigen genes of 9 isolates of Rickettsia conorii (RC), 12 isolates of R. africae (RA), and 3 isolates of Israeli tick typhus rickettsiae (ISTT) were compared for restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLP) present in portions of the open reading frame amplified by po...
