Combining hydrology and mosquito population models to identify the drivers of Rift Valley fever emergence in semi-arid regions of West Africa [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
BACKGROUND: Rift Valley fever (RVF) is a vector-borne viral zoonosis of increasing global importance. RVF virus (RVFV) is transmitted either through exposure to infected animals or through bites from different species of infected mosquitoes, mainly of ...

THE SPECIFIC FEATURES OF CANICOLA FEVER IN THE VOLGOGRAD REGION: BIOTIC STRUCTURE, EPIZOOTIC ACTIVITY, EPIDEMIC MANIFESTATIONS

open access: yesEpidemiology and Infectious Diseases, 2012
Leptospirosis was studied in the natural and anthropurgic foci in the Volgograd Region. The etiological structure of Leptospira was established in wild and farm animals. Retrospective analysis of human morbidity identified three main periods associated with the change of Leptospira serogroups that cause the disease.

Vector Potential Index: Bridging Competence and Contribution as an Integrative Measure of Relative Transmission Capability

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
The Vector Potential Index (VPI) is a novel metric for evaluating and comparing the potential of blood‐feeding arthropod vectors to contribute to zoonotic vector‐borne disease transmission. Taking a meta‐analysis approach, the VPI combines vector competence and host use data obtained from scientific literature to assign relative and absolute VPI ranks ...

Haul‐Out Site Use and Connectivity of Harbour Seals Between Management Units in Southern Scandinavia

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
Effective management of wild populations requires knowledge of their movement patterns and connectivity across administrative borders. Using telemetry data from harbour seals in southern Scandinavia, we show that individuals routinely move across national and regional jurisdictions, creating an integrated network of haul‐out sites.

Host Genetics and the Skin Microbiome Independently Predict Parasite Resistance

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
Host genetic selection and skin microbiome independently predict infection severity of ectoparasites. Furthermore, both factors together explain infection significantly better than either alone. ABSTRACT Host responses to parasite infection involve several interacting systems.

Challenges and opportunities in mitigating sarcoptic mange in wild South American camelids

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 1, January 2026.
Wild South American camelids—vicuña and guanaco—face threats from sarcoptic mange, a contagious skin disease linked to severe population declines. Despite its impact, major gaps remain in understanding disease dynamics. This review summarizes current knowledge, identifies key data and management gaps, and outlines urgent actions for effective ...
