The network level reproduction number for infectious diseases with both vertical and horizontal transmission [PDF]
Mathematical Biosciences, 2013 A wide range of infectious diseases are both vertically and horizontally transmitted. Such diseases are spatially transmitted via multiple species in heterogeneous environments, typically described by complex meta-population models. The reproduction number is a critical metric predicting whether the disease can invade the meta-population system.

The Dynamics of Epidemic Model with Two Types of Infectious Diseases and Vertical Transmission [PDF]
Journal of Applied Mathematics, 2016 An epidemic model that describes the dynamics of the spread of infectious diseases is proposed. Two different types of infectious diseases that spread through both horizontal and vertical transmission in the host population are considered. The basic reproduction numberR0is determined.
