Fruit-frugivore dependencies are important in Ebolavirus outbreaks in Sub-Saharan Africa. [PDF]
EcographyEbolaviruses have the ability to infect a wide variety of species, with many African mammals potentially serving either as primary reservoirs or secondary amplifying hosts. Previous work has shown that frugivorous bats and primates are often associated with spillover and outbreaks.
