Ehrlichia chaffeensis infections in Drosophila melanogaster.
Ehrlichia chaffeensis is an obligate, intracellular bacterium, transmitted by the tick Amblyomma americanum, and is the causative agent of human monocytic ehrlichiosis infections. We previously demonstrated that E. chaffeensis is capable of growing in Drosophila S2 cells. Therefore, we tested the hypothesis that E. chaffeensis can infect adult Drosophila melanogaster. Adult Drosophila organisms...

متن کاملInfection rate of Ehrlichia risticii, the agent of Potomac horse fever, in freshwater stream snails (Juga yrekaensis) from northern California.
Juga yrekaensis freshwater snails were tested for trematode stages and for Ehrlichia risticii DNA using a nested PCR assay. Snails were collected monthly from two Potomac horse fever (PHF) endemic locations in northern California (Montague and Weed). The trematode infection rate varied between 40 and 93.3% in large snails (shell size >15mm) and between 0 and 13.3% in small snails (<15mm). The h...
متن کاملIntrahepatic ramifications of the portal vein in the horse
The ramifications of the portal vein in the liver of horses were studied by using corrosion casting and gross dissection. The portal vein in the horse supplies the hepatic lobes by six major branches. The right lobe is supplied by three main branches, namely the dorsal diaphragmatic, the right caudodorsal and the right intermediate branches. The left branch supplies the left lateral and medial ...
