Cryptic Genes for Interbacterial Antagonism distinguish <i>Rickettsia</i> species Infecting Blacklegged Tick from other <i>Rickettsia</i> pathogens

2022-02-22

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Genus Rickettsia ( Alphaproteobacteria : Rickettsiales) encompasses numerous obligate intracellular species with predominantly ciliate and arthropod hosts. Notable species are pathogens transmitted to mammals by blood-feeding arthropods. Mammalian pathogenicity evolved from basal, non-pathogenic host-associations; however, some non-pathogens are closely related to pathogens. One such species...
