Maximum-likelihood phylogenetic tree for the partial 17kDa gene of Rickettsia spp. The phylogenetic tree was created using the Tamura-Nei model with a discrete Gamma-distribution (+G) and bootstrap analysis of 1000 replicates. Identification source (host) and is given after the names of species. Samples sequenced in the present study are marked. Sequence MF491772 is representative of six other samples sequenced in this study (all derived from I. ricinus of A. flavicolis). Sequence MF491779 is representative of two other samples sequenced in this study (derived from L. agilis of A. flavicolis). Abbreviations: A. fla – Apodemus flavicollis; M. min – Micromys minutus; M. gla – Myodes glareolus
