Plant phenology supports the multi-emergence hypothesis for ebola spillover events [PDF]

, 2017
Ebola virus disease outbreaks in animals (including humans and great apes) start with sporadic host switches from unknown reservoir species. The factors leading to such spillover events are little explored.
