2008 journal article

Vector transmission of Bartonella species with emphasis on the potential for tick transmission

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, 22(1), 1–15.

By: S. Billeter n, M. Levy n, B. Chomel  n & E. Breitschwerdt n 

author keywords: Bartonella species; arthropods; DNA; PCR; ticks; vector competence; vector potential
MeSH headings : Animals; Arachnid Vectors / microbiology; Bartonella / isolation & purification; Bartonella Infections / transmission; Bartonella Infections / veterinary; DNA, Bacterial / chemistry; DNA, Bacterial / genetics; Disease Reservoirs; Humans; Insect Vectors / microbiology; Phthiraptera / microbiology; Siphonaptera / microbiology; Ticks / microbiology; Zoonoses
TL;DR: A review of Bartonella transmission by sandflies, lice and fleas, the potential for transmission by other vectors, and data supporting transmission by ticks suggests there is substantial opportunity for the potential uptake of these blood‐borne bacteria by a variety of arthropod vectors that feed on animals and people.
