Desmodus rotundus and Artibeus spp. bats might present distinct rabies virus lineages
Brazilian Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2012 In Brazil, bats have been assigned an increasing importance in public health as they are important rabies reservoirs. Phylogenetic studies have shown that rabies virus (RABV) strains from frugivorous bats Artibeus spp.

One step closer to a transmissible vaccine for rabies virus.
PLoS Biology, 2022 A recent study in PLOS Biology shows that a betaherpesvirus circulating with the vampire bat, Desmodus rotundus, could serve as an effective vector for a transmissible vaccine capable of reducing the risk of rabies virus spillover in Peru.

Vampire bat reservoir and main transmitter of rabies, a public health problem in Mexico
Mexican Journal of Medical Research ICSA, 2020 Rabies is considered a re-emerging disease due to increased contact with the reservoir. The vampire bat Desmodus rotundus is the reservoir and main transmitter of this disease.

Audition in vampire bats, Desmodus rotundus [PDF]
Journal of Comparative Physiology A, 1991 1. Within the tonotopic organization of the inferior colliculus two frequency ranges are well represented: a frequency range within that of the echolocation signals from 50 to 100 kHz, and a frequency band below that of the echolocation sounds, from 10 to 35 kHz.

Virus-Dependent Geographic Structure of Co-Circulating Viruses in a Single Bat Species. [PDF]
Mol EcolABSTRACT Understanding the spatial spread of viruses within wildlife populations is often a key component of disease management efforts. Viral spread is likely constrained by host ecology, but inter‐virus differences in infection strategy might allow some viruses to overcome these constraints, leading to divergent population structures within a common ...
