Main Article

1The received sequences of the new rickettsial agents have been deposited in GenBank. Sequences of ompA were deposited as two parts under accession numbers: DnS28, AF120018 and AF120019; DnS14, AF120021, and AF120020; RpA4, AF120022, and AF120023. The 16S rRNA gene and gltA sequences have been deposited in GenBank under accession numbers DnS28, gltA - AF120027, 16S rRNA gene AF120024; DnS14, gltA AF120028, 16S rRNA gene AF120025; RpA4, gltA - AF120029, 16S rRNA gene AF120026.
