Modern building structures are a landscape‐level driver of bat–human exposure risk in Kenya

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and the Environment, Volume 23, Issue 1, February 2025.
Identifying the locations and drivers of high‐risk interfaces between humans and wildlife is crucial for managing zoonotic disease risk. We suggest that continent‐wide improvements to residential housing in Africa are inadvertently creating artificial roosting habitat for synanthropic free‐tailed bats (family Molossidae), and that improved buildings ...

Domestic European Rabbits Oryctolagus cuniculus: A Super‐Highway for the Spread of Emergent Viral Diseases to Other Lagomorphs?

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
We propose that the worldwide spread of several viral diseases in European rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) is facilitated by domestic rabbit meat production and associated international trade. This view is based on published records of the transfer of rabbit haemorrhagic disease viruses (RHDV/RHDV2) between countries and supported by data from the Food

Complexity of Diarrhea‐Associated Viruses in Stunted Pigs Identified by Viral Metagenomics

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Viral diarrhea poses a severe threat to the health and growth of piglets, especially when caused by co‐infection with multiple diarrhea‐associated viruses. In this study anal swabs were collected from pigs older than 3 months from a farm in Gansu province, China, and subjected to viral metagenomic analysis.

Structure and Antigenicity of the Porcine Astrovirus 4 Capsid Spike

open access: yesViruses
Porcine astrovirus 4 (PoAstV4) has been recently associated with respiratory disease in pigs. In order to understand the scope of PoAstV4 infections and to support the development of a vaccine to combat PoAstV4 disease in pigs, we designed and produced a

Prevalence, Genetics, and Evolution of Porcine Astrovirus 3 in China

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Porcine astrovirus 3 (PAstV3) is an emerging virus associated with porcine polioencephalomyelitis outbreaks and is frequently detected in the feces of both healthy and diarrheal pigs. Despite its significance, the prevalence, genetic characteristics, and evolutionary features of PAstV3 in China remain poorly understood.

Gut Virome of Tibetan Pigs Reveals the Diversity, Composition, and Distribution of Potential Novel Viruses/Variants

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
As a local breed adapted to the extreme environment of the Tibetan Plateau, Tibetan pigs have not yet been systematically characterized in terms of their gut viral communities. In this study, we applied viral metagenomics to sequence fecal samples from 191 Tibetan pigs (including both healthy and diarrheal individuals) across four farms in Nyingchi ...

Molecular detection of novel astroviruses in wild and laboratory mice

open access: yes, 2012
Pooled fecal specimens collected from striped field mice (Apodemus agrarius), yellow-necked mice (Apodemus flavicollis), and bank voles (Myodes glareolus) and individual stool samples collected from laboratory mice were tested for the presence of ...

Whole Genome Sequence Analysis of Porcine Astroviruses Reveals Novel Genetically Diverse Strains Circulating in East African Smallholder Pig Farms

open access: yesViruses, 2020
Astroviruses (AstVs) are widely distributed and are associated with gastroenteritis in human and animals. The knowledge of the genetic diversity and epidemiology of AstVs in Africa is limited. This study aimed to characterize astroviruses in asymptomatic
