    Author: Spitalská E, Boldis V, Kostanová Z, Kocianová E, Stefanidesová K.
    Journal: Acta Virol; 2008; 52(3):175-9. PubMed ID: 18999892.
    Abstract:
    In this study, we detected Rickettsia helvetica, Candidatus Midichloria mitochondrii, Anaplasma phagocytophilum, Ehrlichia muris, Candidatus Neoehrlichia mikurensis, and Bartonella sp. infections in wild rodents and ticks collected from the vegetation of central Slovakia. The microorganisms were identified by PCR and sequencing. Yellow-necked mice (Apodemus flavicollis) were infected with E. muris and Bartonella sp., while ticks Ixodes ricinus collected from the vegetation were infected with R. helvetica, Candidatus M. mitochondrii, Candidatus N. mikurensis, A. phagocytophilum, and E. muris.
