“…The role of vertebrate reservoirs in the natural life-cycle of rickettsiae has not been thoroughly examined and the competence of birds as a reservoir of rickettsiosis is not fully understood. Birds become rickettsemic (Lundgren et al, 1966;Mukherjee et al, 2014), which allow non-infected ticks to be infected, but they do not seem to serve as reservoir hosts for these agents (Elfving et al, 2010) and the serological response is weak in several species (Lundgren et al, 1966;Maciel et al, 2013). Elfving et al (2010) did not support the hypothesis that the bird could be the source of Rickettsia infection for ticks.…”

“…While chicken DNA has been found in blood meal of fleas collected on rodents in the same area [46] other Rickettsia spp. antibodies have been found in poultry in Brazil [47] , whether or not R. felis and R. typhi infects poultry or if poultry can act as a source of infection to human is unknown. Furthermore, no data on the potential vertical transmission of R. felis in E. gallinacea , or on the vectorial transmission of R. felis by E. gallinacea males (females are semi-sessile) between rodents and birds, are available.…”

“…This experiment shows that in the same conditions of infection, R. parkeri was able to amplify in cotton-rats but not in quail. Maciel et al (2013) tested 300 chickens that were maintained freely on an endemic area for rickettsial infected ticks, and only 1.33% of the animals yielded seropositive outcome. however, some studies show that ticks collected from wild birds are infected with some rickettsial agents.…”
