Abstract
<i>Neorickettsia helminthoeca</i>in Dog, Brazil
Highlights
Specificity of N. helminthoeca– specific primers was shown by amplification studies of genomic DNA of A. phagocytophilum, Ehrlichia chaffeensis, E. canis, N. risticii, N. sennetsu, and N. helminthoeca
Two dogs (N40–05, mesenteric lymph node, Maringá 1 and N20–04, Peyer’s patch, Maringá 2) contained Neorickettsia spp. rrs, RNA polymerase β-subunit (rpoB), or groESL genes. Both samples produced partial sequences for Neorickettsia spp. rrs gene; a similarity of 99% was observed for the 2 Maringá dog rrs sequences with N. sennetsu, N. risticii, and the Stellantchasmus falcatus (SF) agent
DNA identities of 100%, 82%, and 81% were observed between Maringá dog 1 sequences and N. helminthoeca, N. risticii, and N. sennetsu for the rpoB genes, respectively
