Thirty\u2010five specimens (3.7%) tested positive for either<jats:italic>B. henselae<\/jats:italic>(14 positive fleas) or<jats:italic>B. clarridgeiae<\/jats:italic>(21 positive fleas). DNA of other<jats:italic>Bartonella<\/jats:italic>spp. were not detected.<jats:italic>Bartonella clarridgeiae<\/jats:italic>was the dominating species in samples from France (19 out of 22 positive fleas), whereas<jats:italic>B. henselae<\/jats:italic>was more frequent in Germany (11 out of 13 positive fleas). With 3.5% (22 out of 632 fleas) in France and 4.1% (13 out of 320 fleas) in Germany, the overall prevalences of pathogen did not vary significantly between the flea populations of both countries. 5.4% of cats in France versus 16.1% of cats from Germany were infested by fleas carrying<jats:italic>Bartonella<\/jats:italic>, whereas 9.5% of dogs in France but none of the examined dogs from Germany were infested by<jats:italic>Bartonella<\/jats:italic>positive fleas. The molecular evidence of<jats:italic>Bartonella<\/jats:italic>infections reveals that agents of zoonotic potential are established in flea populations in Germany and France and that the spectrum of species can vary significantly from country to country.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1863-2378.2008.01131.x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2008,5,16]],"date-time":"2008-05-16T14:08:31Z","timestamp":1210946911000},"page":"514-520","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":29,"title":["Molecular Evidence for<i>Bartonella<\/i>spp. in Cat and Dog Fleas from Germany and France"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"55","author":[{"given":"F.
