Putting Rodents at the Center of One Health Programs: A Narrative Synthesis

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Rodents link human, animal, and environmental health across diverse ecosystems. Rodent diversity underpins both zoonotic disease risk and ecosystem function. Environmental change reshapes rodent communities and spillover dynamics. Rodents act as reservoirs, amplifiers, and sentinels of emerging pathogens.

Francisella orientalis in Aquacultured Tilapia (Oreochromis spp.): A Case Work‐Up of Diagnostics and Pathologic Findings in the North Central Region (USA)

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tilapia (Oreochromis spp.) is an increasingly popular aquacultured fish worldwide. While tilapia enjoy a ‘hardy‐fish’ reputation among fish farmers, they are susceptible to a variety of infectious diseases that can be difficult to recognize pondside and have similarities in their gross presentations. This report describes gross and microscopic

Invasion of Erythrocytes by Francisella tularensis [PDF]

The Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2011
Francisella tularensis is the causative agent of tularemia and is classified as a category A biodefense agent by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention because of its highly infectious nature. F. tularensis infects leukocytes and exhibits an extracellular phase in the blood of the host. It is unknown, however, whether F.

Atomic Structure of IglD Demonstrates Its Role as a Component of the Baseplate Complex of the Francisella Type VI Secretion System

mBio, 2022
Francisella tularensis, a Tier 1 select agent of bioterrorism, contains a type VI secretion system (T6SS) encoded within the Francisella pathogenicity island (FPI), which is critical for its pathogenesis.

Structure‐Based Annotation by AlphaFold3 Predictions of the Francisella halioticida T6SS Encoded in the Francisella Pathogenicity Island

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Francisella halioticida has emerged as a significant pathogen of cultured molluscs, causing substantial economic losses due to mass mortalities. The Francisella Pathogenicity Island encodes a Type VI secretion system essential for virulence and intracellular persistence. However, the F.

Environmental adaptation of Francisella tularensis [PDF]

Microbes and Infection, 2009
Concerns over weaponizable bacteria have recently prompted considerable interest in Francisella tularensis (Ft). In addition to its potential illicit use, Ft occurs naturally in diverse ecological niches including mammals, arthropods, and fresh water protozoans.

Genome characterisation of the genus Francisella reveals insight into similar evolutionary paths in pathogens of mammals and fish

BMC Genomics, 2012
Background Prior to this study, relatively few strains of Francisella had been genome-sequenced. Previously published Francisella genome sequences were largely restricted to the zoonotic agent F. tularensis.
