Isolation and Molecular Analysis of a Novel <italic toggle="yes">Neorickettsia</italic> Species That Causes Potomac Horse Fever

ABSTRACT Potomac horse fever (PHF), a severe and frequently fatal febrile diarrheal disease, has been known to be caused only by Neorickettsia risticii, an endosymbiont of digenean trematodes. Here, we report the cell culture isolation of a new Neorickettsia species found in two locations in eastern...
