Journal ArticleDOI

Ehrlichia chaffeensis, a new species associated with human ehrlichiosis.

TL;DR: The sequence comparisons indicate that the human ehrlichiosis agent is a new species most closely related to E. canis and more distantly related to other Ehrlichia spp, and it is proposed that this species be named EHRlichia chaffeensis sp.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bartonella spp. as emerging human pathogens.

TL;DR: Members of the genus Bartonella (formerly Rochalimaea) were virtually unknown to modern-day clinicians and microbiologists until they were associated with opportunistic infections in AIDS patients about 6 years ago, and the current status of laboratory diagnosis and identification of these organisms is reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization of a novel Rochalimaea species, R. henselae sp. nov., isolated from blood of a febrile, human immunodeficiency virus-positive patient.

TL;DR: Analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences demonstrated that the agent is closely related to members of the genus Rochalimaea and that the isolate is genotypically identical to the presumptive etiologic agent of bacillary angiomatosis.
