Ecologic Traits Analysis for Identifying Rodent Hosts for Arenavirus and Hepacivirus in the Americas
Biotropica, Volume 57, Issue 6, November 2025.Over half of emerging human pathogens originate from wildlife, with rodents serving as key zoonotic hosts. This study used ecological trait‐based models to identify rodent traits associated with arenavirus and hepacivirus infections and detect potential host species across the Americas, our models achieve high predictive accuracy (AUC = 0.92–0.96).

Vertebrate diversity revealed by metabarcoding of bulk arthropod samples from tropical forests
Environmental DNA, Volume 1, Issue 4, Page 329-341, November 2019., 2019 This study demonstrates that vertebrate DNA can be detected through metabarcoding of bulk arthropod samples. This method can supplement vertebrate monitoring such as camera trapping, visual surveys, and iDNA studies. Abstract Background Thousands of bulk arthropod samples are collected globally every year for monitoring programs, conservation efforts ...

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 3, Issue 2, Page 71-81, May 2017., 2017 The expanding international wildlife trade, combined with a lack of surveillance for key animal diseases in most countries, represents a potential pathway for transboundary disease movement. We reviewed peer‐reviewed literature for reports of 73 OIE‐Listed terrestrial animal diseases in wild animals and found 528 possible wild animal hosts using our ...
