Assessing the inference of single-cell phylogenies and population dynamics from CRISPR lineage recordings. [PDF]
Multicellular organisms develop from a single cell by repeated rounds of cell division, differentiation, and death, which can be represented as a single-cell phylogenetic tree. Genetic lineage tracing allows us to investigate this development by tracking

Molecular Surveillance and Evolutionary Dynamics of Porcine Circovirus Types 2 and 3 in China, 2022-2025. [PDF]
Porcine circovirus types 2 (PCV2) and 3 (PCV3) are globally distributed pathogens associated with reproductive disorders, subclinical infections, and multifactorial disease complexes in swine. To elucidate their epidemiological and evolutionary patterns in China, we examined 8426 clinical samples collected from 28 provincial‐level regions between 2022 ...

Integrated Genomic and Epidemiological Surveillance to Monitor SARS-CoV-2 Variants in Italy: Insights From the JN.1 Case Study (2023-2024). [PDF]
ABSTRACT The epidemiology of SARS‐CoV‐2 is marked by the continuous emergence of new lineages. Early detection and assessment of their transmissibility can be challenging for surveillance systems that rely solely on case time series data. Genomic surveillance, focusing on identifying and characterizing circulating variants, can provide early insights ...

Phylogenetic and phylodynamic analyses of subtype-B metapneumovirus from chickens in Tunisia
: Swollen Head Syndrome (SHS) is an economically important viral disease of chickens caused by avian metapneumovirus (aMPV). The virus comprises 6 different subtypes (A,B,C,D, New-1 and New-2). To date, no information was available on the presence of the

Unraveling the Transmission Dynamics of a Novel Norovirus GII.17[P17] Lineage During Two Consecutive Outbreaks in a Spanish Hospital. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Norovirus outbreaks in healthcare settings pose significant challenges to infection prevention and control (IPC). To prevent and control such outbreaks efficiently, identifying sources and transmission clusters (TCs) is crucial but often limited by traditional outbreak investigations.

Host Species Contribution to the Spatiotemporal Dynamics of the 2024-2025 H5N1 Epidemic in Italy. [PDF]
ABSTRACT This study uses a phylodynamic approach to investigate host species contribution in the spatiotemporal dynamics of the highly pathogenic avian influenza A(H5N1) viruses of clade 2.3.4.4b identified during the 2024–2025 epidemic in Italy.
