Insect-transmitted

rickettsiales diseases are significant sources of morbidity and

mortality all over the world. Their incidence has been increasing in

recent years in large

part due to climate change and the movement of animals carrying the

insect vectors. Currently there are no effective vaccines against

diseases caused by members of the order Rickettsiales. Rickettsiales

diseases are often misdiagnosed; this book is intended

to serve as a tool for their understanding and diagnosis.

Rickettsiales

covers the seven main genera: Anaplasma, Ehrlichia, Midichloria,

Neorickettsia, Orientia, Rickettsia and Wolbachia. Discussion of each

genus includes immunology

and molecular biology of host-pathogen interactions, epidemiology and

diagnosis, and vaccination strategies and therapies.
