Comparative Analysis of Mitochondrial Genomes and Phylogeny of Barbastelle Bats Across China. [PDF]
Barbastelle bats are characterized by their distinct approximately square‐shaped outer ears, which converge at the forehead. In China, three species have been documented, and we present two mitochondrial genomes for Barbastella beijingensis and B. darjelingensis.

Geographic and Molecular Insights Into Bat Diversity and Virus Distribution in China: Implications for Public Health. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Bats are key reservoirs of zoonotic viruses, yet comprehensive data on their diversity and viral carriage across China remain limited. This study compiled national‐level data on bat taxonomy, distribution, and associated viruses by integrating information from peer‐reviewed publications (PubMed), the ZOVER database, and cytochrome oxidase I ...

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