Show abstract
We report the first case of Rickettsia japonica in Haemaphysalis hystricis ticks collected from a Burmese ferret-badger in Loei province, northeastern Thailand. Phylogenetic analyses of ompA and ompB genes clearly showed that it was almost identical to R. japonica found in ticks and Japanese spotted fever (JSF) patients previously reported.
