Salmon poisoning disease (SPD), a febrile infectious disease of canids and rarely other species, is caused by the agent Neorickettsia helminthoeca, an alphaproteobacterium within the order Rickettsiales. Several major changes regarding classification of organisms within this order occurred recently, ...
The digenetic trematode Nanophyetus salmincola (Chapin) is the vector for Neorickettsia helminthoeca, a rickettsia-like organism that causes “salmon poisoning” disease (SPD). The disease is usually fatal for dogs, foxes, and coyotes. Nanophyetus s. salmincola (N.s. salmincola) requires ...

Upon ingestion of salmonid fish parasitized with infected trematodes, canids develop salmon poisoning disease (SPD), an acute febrile illness that is particularly severe and often fatal in dogs without adequate treatment. We determined and analysed the complete genome sequence ofN. helminthoeca: a...
