Cross-species transmission of a novel bisegmented orfanplasmovirus in the phytopathogenic fungus Exserohilum rostratum

Frontiers in Microbiology
Mycoviruses have been found in various fungal species across different taxonomic groups, while no viruses have been reported yet in the fungus Exserohilum rostratum. In this study, a novel orfanplasmovirus, namely Exserohilum rostratum orfanplasmovirus 1

Primate malarias as a model for cross-species parasite transmission

eLife, 2022
Parasites regularly switch into new host species, representing a disease burden and conservation risk to the hosts. The distribution of these parasites also gives insight into characteristics of ecological networks and genetic mechanisms of host-parasite

Comparative Genomics of Zoonotic Pathogens: Genetic Determinants of Host Switching and Cross-Species Transmission [PDF]

Emerging infectious diseases of animals that spread to humans (zoonoses) continue to represent a major threat to public health throughout the world. Knowledge of genetic elements that enable pathogens to navigate host shifts and species jumps is crucial ...

Frequent Cross-Species Transmission of Parvoviruses among Diverse Carnivore Hosts [PDF]

, 2012
Although parvoviruses are commonly described in domestic carnivores, little is known about their biodiversity in nondomestic species. A phylogenetic analysis of VP2 gene sequences from puma, coyote, gray wolf, bobcat, raccoon, and striped skunk revealed ...

Implications of viral transmitted/founder (T/F) dynamics on vaccine development

Human Vaccines & Immunotherapeutics, 2021
Viral infection typically originates from a limited number of virions known as transmitted/founder (T/F) viruses. Studies of cross-species transmission, and intra-species transmission of antigenically variable viruses, indicates T/F variants may express ...

Cross-species transmission of canine distemper virus—an update

One Health, 2015
Canine distemper virus (CDV) is a pantropic morbillivirus with a worldwide distribution, which causes fatal disease in dogs. Affected animals develop dyspnea, diarrhea, neurological signs and profound immunosuppression. Systemic CDV infection, resembling

Feline APOBEC3s, Barriers to Cross-Species Transmission of FIV?

Viruses, 2018
The replication of lentiviruses highly depends on host cellular factors, which defines their species-specific tropism. Cellular restriction factors that can inhibit lentiviral replication were recently identified.
