No evidence for the involvement of the argasid tick Ornithodoros faini in the enzootic maintenance of marburgvirus within Egyptian rousette bats Rousettus aegyptiacus

Parasites & Vectors, 2016
BackgroundThe cave-dwelling Egyptian rousette bat (ERB; Rousettus aegyptiacus) was recently identified as a natural reservoir host of marburgviruses. However, the mechanisms of transmission for the enzootic maintenance of marburgviruses within ERBs are ...

Successful Transmission and Isolation of a Fungal Pathogen From Wild Frogs to a Captive Amphibian Model Species: Fine Scale Pathogen Genetic Diversity and Infection‐Induced Changes in Skin Bacteria

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 27, Issue 7, July 2025.
The isolation of Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd) from low‐load wild amphibians revealed multiple genotypes, including a potential hybrid, highlighting ongoing pathogen genetic mixing in natural environments. Additionally, Bd infection induced skin microbiome shifts in Hymenochirus boettgeri, demonstrating its utility as a model for studying ...

Economic Impacts of Salmonella Dublin in Dairy Farms: Panel Evidence From Denmark

Agricultural Economics, Volume 56, Issue 4, Page 666-693, July 2025.
ABSTRACT Salmonella Dublin (SDB) is a highly infectious, multidrug‐resistant strain of Salmonella prevalent in cattle, where it often remains asymptomatic but can lead to severe illness and high mortality rates in humans. Despite the significant public health challenges, its asymptomatic nature in cattle discourages farmers from implementing control ...

"Submergence" of Western equine encephalitis virus: Evidence of positive selection argues against genetic drift and fitness reductions.

PLoS Pathogens, 2020
Understanding the circumstances under which arboviruses emerge is critical for the development of targeted control and prevention strategies. This is highlighted by the emergence of chikungunya and Zika viruses in the New World.

Modelling Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis Presence and Intensity Using High Spatial and Temporal Resolution Weather Data

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 31, Issue 7, July 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim Species distribution models (SDMs) are an important tool for conservation efforts, and when constructed using high‐quality predictor and response data could be useful for identifying portions of a species' range that could serve as refugia from risks that are influenced by environmental conditions, such as pathogens.

Spatio‐temporal Usutu virus model explains Eurasian blackbird Turdus merula population trends

Ecography, Volume 2025, Issue 7, July 2025.
Emerging vector‐borne pathogens (VBPs) pose significant global health threats, occasionally causing widespread outbreaks with high wildlife mortality. Understanding climatic and anthropogenic drivers behind transmission dynamics in wildlife populations is key to mitigate health risks.

Prevalence of Cytauxzoon felis infection in healthy cats from enzootic areas in Arkansas, Missouri, and Oklahoma

Parasites & Vectors, 2015
BackgroundInfection with Cytauxzoon felis in domestic cats can cause fever, lethargy, depression, inappetence, icterus, and often death. With a high mortality rate, cytauxzoonosis was historically considered a fatal disease.
