Avian Reservoirs of Newcastle Disease

1976
Newcastle disease is a major infection of poultry in most countries of the world. Among chickens it appears to be transmitted primarily by aerosol and consequently spreads rapidly through large flocks. Disease manifestations range from simple respiratory signs, to complications involving the nervous and digestive systems.

Animal genomics in natural reservoirs of infectious diseases.

Revue scientifique et technique (International Office of Epizootics), 2016
Natural virus reservoirs such as wild bats, birds, rodents and non-human primates are generally non-model organisms that have, until recently, presented limited opportunities for in-depth study. Next-generation sequencing provides a way to partially circumvent this limitation, since the methods required for data acquisition and analysis are largely ...

[Ixodes ricinus, transmitted diseases and reservoirs].

Parassitologia, 2004
The tick Ixodes ricinus has been recorded in most Italian regions especially in thermo-mesophilous woods and shrubby habitats where the relative humidity allow the tick to complete its 3 year developmental cycle, as predicted for the European climatic ranges.

Wildlife, Livestock and Animal Disease Reservoirs

2000
The perceived risk of disease transmission from wildlife to livestock has led to massive eradication of wildlife in Africa, especially during the first half of this century. There is no evidence in East Africa that this reduction in wildlife has decreased the incidence of livestock disease or the costs of livestock disease control.

Animal as Reservoir of Fungal Diseases (Zoonoses?)

2010
Considering the term zoonoses in a wide sense, it should include not only the traditional concept of diseases transmitted from vertebrate animals to humans, but also the concept of diseases that are common to both animals and humans. In the first case, animals are essential to the transmission of the disease to humans, while in the second animals are ...

Reservoir Competence of White-Footed Mice for Lyme Disease Spirochetes

The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1987
Using the vector tick, Ixodes dammini, we described the reservoir competence of the white-footed mouse, Peromyscus leucopus, for the Lyme disease spirochete, Borrelia burgdorferi. Nymphal I. dammini were used to infect mammals, and larval ticks were used to diagnose infection (a form of xenodiagnosis). One tick was nearly as efficient as more than 1 in

Soil as an Environmental Reservoir of Prion Diseases

2018
Prions are recognized as misfolded, pathologic isoforms of the normal mammalian prion protein, which can uniquely cause infectious inherited or spontaneous disease. They are agents of transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs). The normal, benign, host-encoded forms of PrP are denoted PrPC, and the infectious disease-associated, misfolded ...

Canine Reservoirs and Leishmaniasis: Epidemiology and Disease

2002
Leishmaniasis is a group of diseases caused by infection with intracellular protozoa of the family Trypanosomatidae, genus Leishmania Ross, 1903, which are transmitted to the host by phlebotomine sand flies. One subset, human visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is caused by parasites of the L. donovani complex.
