Bartonella vinsonii explained

Bartonella vinsonii is a gram-negative bacteria from the genus Bartonella which was isolated from dogs.[1] [2] Rochalimaea vinsonii was reclassified to Bartonella vinsonii.[1] B. vinsonii contains three validly published subspecies B. vinsonii subsp. arupensis, B. vinsonii subsp. berkhoffii, and B. vinsonii subsp. vinsonii, and one effectively published B. vinsonii subsp. yucatanensis.[3] [4] B. vinsonii subsp. vinsonii has been isolated from voles and B. vinsonii subsp. berkhofli was isolated from a dog with endocarditis.[1] B. vinsonii subsp. berkhoffii can cause diseases in humans.[5] Those two subspecies are named after J. William Vinson and Herman A. Berkhoff.[1]
