detection of dna of 'candidatus mycoplasma haemominutum' and spiroplasma sp. in unfed ticks collected from vegetation in japan.dna fragments of 'candidatus mycoplasma haemominutum', a feline heamobartonella pathogen, were detected from unfed ixodes ovatus collected from vegetation in hokkaido, fukushima and yamaguchi prefectures, and unfed haemaphysalis flava in yamaguchi prefecture. this finding suggests that ixodid tick is a possible vector of 'c. mycoplasma haemominutum'. spiroplasma dna was also detected from unfed i. ovatus in hokkaido, fukushima and yamaguchi prefectures. the analysis of nucleotides sequence sugge ...200516397391
prevalence of lyme borreliosis spirochetes in ixodid ticks of japan, with special reference to a new potential vector, ixodes ovatus (acari: ixodidae).to determine the vectors of lyme borreliosis in japan, the ixodid ticks taken in hokkaido, fukushima, nagano, ehime, and kochi prefectures were examined individually for spirochetal infections by culturing their midgut tissues in bsk medium. the cultivable spirochetes identified as borrelia burgdorferi were detected in ixodes persulcatus schulze adults (15.5% of 634), nymph (6.7% of 15) and ixodes ovatus neumann adult (9.6% of 188) from hokkaido, i. ovatus adults (25.5% of 47) from fukushima, an ...19921495032
