Abstract
Background: Coxiellaburnetiiandnon-C.burnetiibacteriaorendosymbioticCoxiella-likewerereportedinvarious tickspecies.WeaimedtodetectC.burnetiiwithinsofttickspecies,ArgaspersicusandAlveonasuscanestrinii. Methods: Argasid ticks were collected from different counties of Lorestan province, west of Iran. Partial fragments of 16S rRNA, IS1111 insertion sequence, com1, htpB, and icd genes related to Coxiella genus were sequenced. Results: A partial 16S rRNA and com1 gene fragment as well as IS1111 was detected in four Ar. persicus and twelveAl.canestriniipools.Moreover,partialhtpBandicdgenewasonlydetectedinonepoolofAr.persicus. Conclusions: Detection of C. burnetii in tick samples was failed due to the occurrence of Coxiella-like endosymbiontsandleadstomisidentification.Thus,thehouse-keepinggenesshouldbedesignatedtodistinguish C.burnetiiwithinCoxiella-likeendosymbionts.
