Different but Not Unique: Deciphering the Immunity of the Jamaican Fruit Bat by Studying Its Viriome [PDF]

Viruses, 2022
A specialized and fine-tuned immune response of bats upon infection with viruses is believed to provide the basis for a “friendly” coexistence with these pathogens, which are often lethal for humans and other mammals.

High local diversity of Trypanosoma in a common bat species, and implications for the biogeography and taxonomy of the T. cruzi clade. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
The Trypanosoma cruzi clade is a group of parasites that comprises T. cruzi sensu lato and its closest relatives. Although several species have been confirmed phylogenetically to belong to this clade, it is uncertain how many more species can be expected

Differential performance of aqueous- and ethylic-Lugol's iodine stain to visualize anatomy in μCT-scanned vertebrates. [PDF]

J Anat
We compared the performance of two common diceCT scan stains, ethylic‐Lugol's iodine solution with aqueous‐Lugol's, across several vertebrate orders to assess differential imaging outcomes. We found that ethylic‐Lugol's is better for visualizing muscle attachment to bone but provides overall lower contrast between soft tissue types.

Host-Driven Genetic Diversity of <i>Leptospira</i> in the Americas: A Continental Perspective. [PDF]

Transbound Emerg Dis
Leptospira is a genetically diverse genus of spirochetes comprising over 68 species, including several pathogenic taxa such as L. interrogans, L. santarosai, L. noguchii, and L. weilii. These bacteria infect a wide range of vertebrates, especially mammals, with infected animals serving as renal carriers that excrete the pathogen through urine.
