Deciphering bartonella diversity, recombination, and host specificity in a rodent community. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Host-specificity is an intrinsic feature of many bacterial pathogens, resulting from a long history of co-adaptation between bacteria and their hosts.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.The object of this study is to evaluate and compare the changes of the small mammal assemblages between two lowland mesoregions in Hungary based on Western Barn Owl pellet analysis. Prey composition, diversity, and community dynamics differed markedly between the two lowland regions, indicating that local landscape characteristics and weather ...

Using DNA Metabarcoding and Citizen Science to Assess the Diet of Owned Domestic Cats
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.ABSTRACT Various methods have been attempted to quantify hunting and consumption of wild prey by domestic cats, but molecular analysis of their scat using DNA metabarcoding has rarely been attempted. In this study, we relied on owner‐collected scats (n = 32) from litterboxes and backyards to test whether this methodology could be used to detect ...

The genetic diversity of Borrelia afzelii is not maintained by the diversity of the rodent hosts
Parasites & Vectors, 2018 Background Small mammals are essential in the enzootic cycle of many tick-borne pathogens (TBP). To understand their contribution to the genetic diversity of Borrelia afzelii, the most prevalent TBP in questing Ixodes ricinus, we compared the genetic ...

Environmental change and disease dynamics: effects of intensive forest management on Puumala hantavirus infection in boreal bank vole populations. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Intensive management of Fennoscandian forests has led to a mosaic of woodlands in different stages of maturity. The main rodent host of the zoonotic Puumala hantavirus (PUUV) is the bank vole (Myodes glareolus), a species that can be found in all ...

Ecography, Volume 2026, Issue 9, September 2026.Ecosystem dynamics are shaped by interacting top‐down and bottom‐up processes, yet their relative importance may vary through time following disturbances such as disease outbreaks and changes in apex predator communities. Using a 52‐year time series in south‐central Sweden, we examined how disease, apex predators, and prey availability jointly impact a
