Are all hosts created equal? Partitioning host species contributions to parasite persistence in multihost communities [PDF]

, 2015
Many parasites circulate endemically within communities of multiple host species. To understand disease persistence within these communities, it is essential to know the contribution each host species makes to parasite transmission and maintenance ...

Species-specific transmission of novel picornaviruses in lemurs [PDF]

, 2015
The roles of host genetics versus exposure and contact frequency in driving cross-species transmission remain the subject of debate. Here, we used a multitaxon lemur collection at the Saint Louis Zoo in the United States as a model to gain insight into ...
