A novel circulating tamiami mammarenavirus shows potential for zoonotic spillover [PDF]
PLOS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2020 A detailed understanding of the mechanisms underlying the capacity of a virus to break the species barrier is crucial for pathogen surveillance and control. New World (NW) mammarenaviruses constitute a diverse group of rodent-borne pathogens that includes several causative agents of severe viral hemorrhagic fever in humans.
