Popis | A total of 151 bacterial isolates were recovered from different developmental stages of field-collected ticks. Microorganisms were identified by means of 16S rRNA gene sequencing. Almost 87 % of the strains belonged to G+ bacteria with predominantly occurring genera Bacillus and Paenibacillus. Other G+ strains included Arthrobacter, Corynebacterium, Frigoribacterium, Kocuria, Microbacterium, Micrococcus, Plantibacter, Rhodococcus, Rothia, and Staphylococcus. G-strains occurred less frequently, comprising genera Advenella, Pseudomonas, Rahnella, Stenotrophomonas, and Xanthomonas. Several strains of medical importance were found, namely Advenella incenata, Corynebacterium aurimucosum, Microbacterium oxydans, M. schleiferi, Staphylococcus spp., and Stenotrophomonas maltophilia. Data on cultivable microbial diversity in Eurasian tick species D. reticulatus and H. concinna are given, along with the extension of present knowledge concerning bacterial flora of I. ricinus. |
