Ecosystem services provided by spiders

Biological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 6, Page 2217-2236, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Spiders, ubiquitous and abundant predators in terrestrial ecosystems, often are the subjects of an unjust negative perception. However, these remarkable creatures stand as unsung heroes within our ecosystems, contributing a multitude of ecosystem services critical to human well‐being.

Pre-existing yellow fever immunity impairs and modulates the antibody response to tick-borne encephalitis vaccination

npj Vaccines, 2019
Flaviviruses have an increasing global impact as arthropod-transmitted human pathogens, exemplified by Zika, dengue, yellow fever (YF), West Nile, Japanese encephalitis, and tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) viruses.

Risk factors associated with sustained circulation of six zoonotic arboviruses: a systematic review for selection of surveillance sites in non-endemic areas

Parasites & Vectors, 2019
Arboviruses represent a significant burden to public health and local economies due to their ability to cause unpredictable and widespread epidemics. To maximize early detection of arbovirus emergence in non-endemic areas, surveillance efforts should ...

Serological survey of domestic animals for tick-borne encephalitis and Bhanja viruses in northeastern Hungary

Veterinary Microbiology, 2009
Blood sera collected from 400 domestic animals (260 cattle, 100 Merino sheep, and 40 Hutzul horses) in northeastern Hungary in 2005 were examined for antibodies against two tick-borne viruses, tick-borne encephalitis flavivirus (TBEV) and Bhanja bunyavirus (BHAV).

Modelling vector and host distributions to inform potential disease risk: A case study of West Nile virus in the United Kingdom

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 39, Issue 4, Page 842-862, December 2025.
Correlative modelling approaches can be used successfully to predict the distribution of vectors and hosts involved in vector‐borne diseases of concern. For West Nile virus in the United Kingdom, host distributions are unlikely to be a significant factor influencing change. Vector distributions and urbanisation will drive increasing risk. Projecting to

Molecular Basis of a Protective/Neutralizing Monoclonal Antibody Targeting Envelope Proteins of both Tick-Borne Encephalitis Virus and Louping Ill Virus

Journal of Virology, 2019
Understanding the mechanism of antibody neutralization/protection against a virus is crucial for antiviral countermeasure development. Tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV) and louping ill virus (LIV) are tick-borne flaviviruses (TBFVs) in the family ...
