dc.description.abstract | We demonstrated the presence of the agent of human granulocytic anaplasmosis (HGA), Anaplasma phagocytophilum, and the agent of Lyme borreliosis, Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato, in north-western Turkey. A total of 241 questing Ixodes ricinus adult ticks were sampled by flagging from recreational parks of the Asiatic and European sides of the heavily populated Istanbul metropolitan area and rural forests of Kirklareli located in the Thrace region in 2008. Both tick-borne pathogens were detected and identified by PCR and DNA sequencing analysis. A. phagocytophilum infection rates were 2.7% in Istanbul and 17.5% in the Kirklareli area. B. burgdorferi sensu lato infection rates were 38.7% in Istanbul and 11.4% in the Kirklareli area. Only 3 of 241 ticks were coinfected with A. phagocytophilum and B. burgdorferi sensu lato.
