Atypical brucellae show deviant phenotypes and/or genotypes. Besides Brucella inopinata, B. microti and B. vulpis, atypical strains have been described infecting humans, rodents, amphibians and fish. They represent potential zoonotic agents. Here, we provide evidence that reptiles as the remaining poikilothermic vertebrate class also represent susceptible hosts for atypical Brucella.

扩大宿主范围：非典型布鲁氏菌菌株感染爬虫类宿主（Furcifer pardalis）。

非典型布鲁氏菌表现出异常的表型和/或基因型。此外布鲁氏菌inopinata，B.，田鼠和B. vulpis，非典型菌株进行了说明感染人类，啮齿类动物，两栖动物和鱼类。它们代表潜在的人畜共患病原体。在这里，我们提供的证据表明，爬行动物作为剩余的poikilothermic脊椎动物，也代表了非典型布鲁氏菌的易感宿主。
