Unveiling the impacts of land use on the phylogeography of zoonotic New World Hantaviruses
Billions of genomic sequences and records of species occurrence are available in public repositories (e.g. National Center for Biotechnology Information, NCBI and the Global Biodiversity Information Facility, GBIF). By implementing analytical tools from different scientific disciplines, data mining these databases can aid in the global surveillance of ...

Orthohantaviruses in Misiones Province, Northeastern Argentina [PDF]
Few cases of hantavirus pulmonary syndrome have been reported in northeastern Argentina. However, neighboring areas show a higher incidence, suggesting underreporting.

Abstract Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) and hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) usually have different infection routes, and coinfection is relatively rare. This study examines the clinical and etiological characteristics of coinfection by these two pathogens to provide important references for clinical diagnosis and ...

Tick‐borne encephalitis is endemic throughout central Europe, ticks and rodents determine its maintenance in small, difficult‐to‐assess, natural foci. In long‐term TBEV foci bank vole populations show extraordinary genetic constitutions, leading to a particular population structure, whereas ticks revealed a panmictic genetic structure over all sampling

Estimating pathogen‐spillover risk using host–ectoparasite interactions
Understanding the interacting factors that lead to pathogen transmission in a zoonotic cycle could help identify novel hosts of pathogens and the patterns that lead to disease emergence. We use parasite ecology, phylogenetics, and geography to predict known and unknown hosts of hantavirus.

Physiological strategies in wild rodents: immune defenses of commensal rats
Abstract The importance of issues associated with urban/commensal rats and mice (property damage, management costs, and health risks) press upon research on these animals. While the demography of commensal rodents is mostly studied, the need for understanding factors influencing their natural morbidity/mortality is also stressed. In this respect, more

Genomic signatures of climate adaptation in bank voles
We investigated adaptive differences in 12 bank vole populations across Europe in conjunction with geographic climate variation. We used multiple genotype‐environment associations, found that mean annual temperature was a shaping factor, and identified signatures of selection in candidate genes related to lipid metabolism and the immune system.

Spatial risk of Haemaphysalis longicornis borne Dabieshan tick virus (DBTV) in China
Abstract The uncertainty and unknowability of emerging infectious diseases have caused many major public health and security incidents in recent years. As a new tick‐borne disease, Dabieshan tick virus (DBTV) necessitate systematic epidemiological and spatial distribution analysis.
