Abstract
This study reports the occurrence of “ Bartonella rochalimae ” in Europe and the presence of Bartonella vinsonii subsp. berkhoffii genotypes II and III in dogs in southern Italy and provides DNA sequencing evidence of a potentially new Bartonella sp. infecting dogs in Greece and Italy.This publication has 16 references indexed in Scilit:
