Phylodynamics of deer tick virus in North America

open access: yesVirus Evolution, 2023
AbstractThe burden of ticks and the pathogens they carry is increasing worldwide. Powassan virus (POWV; Flaviviridae: Flavivirus), the only known North American tick-borne flavivirus, is of particular concern due to rising cases and the severe morbidity of POWV encephalitis.

What can phylodynamics bring to animal health research?

open access: yesTrends in Ecology and Evolution, 2021
International audienceInfectious diseases are a major burden to global economies, and public and animal health. To date, quantifying the spread of infectious diseases to inform policy making has traditionally relied on epidemiological data collected ...

Update on the Phylodynamics of SADS-CoV [PDF]

open access: yesLife, 2021
Coronaviruses are known to be harmful and heterogeneous viruses, able to infect a large number of hosts. Among them, SADS-CoV (Swine Acute Diarrhea Syndrome Coronavirus), also known as PEAV (Porcine Enteric Alphacoronavirus), or SeA-CoV (Swine Enteric Alphacoronavirus), is the most recent Alphacoronavirus discovered, and caused several outbreaks ...

Phylodynamics for cell biologists

Science, 2021
Ancestry and evolution in cell biology Advances in experimental approaches for single-cell analysis allow in situ sequencing, genomic barcoding, and mapping of cell lineages within tissues and organisms. Large amounts of data have thus accumulated and present an analytical challenge.

Development of Phylodynamic Methods for Bacterial Pathogens

Trends in Microbiology, 2021
Phylodynamic methods have been essential to understand the interplay between the evolution and epidemiology of infectious diseases. To date, the field has centered on viruses. Bacterial pathogens are seldom analyzed under such phylodynamic frameworks, due to their complex genome evolution and, until recently, a paucity of whole-genome sequence data ...

Inferring the global phylodynamics of influenza A/H3N2 viruses in Taiwan

open access: yesJournal of the Formosan Medical Association, 2019
Background/Purpose: Influenza A/H3N2 viruses are characterized by highly mutated RNA genomes. In this study, we focused on tracing the phylodynamics of Taiwanese strains over the past four decades. Methods: All Taiwanese H3N2 HA1 sequences and references

Modelling tree shape and structure in viral phylodynamics [PDF]

open access: yesPhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2013
Abstract Epidemiological models have highlighted the importance of population structure in the transmission dynamics of infectious diseases. Using HIV-1 as an example of a model evolutionary system, we consider how population structure affects the shape and the structure of a viral phylogeny in the absence of strong selection at the ...

Maximum Likelihood Phylodynamic Analysis

2018
Die Anzahl der verfügbaren Genomsequenzen für verschiedene Pathogene hat in den letzten Jahren ausserordentlich zugenommen. Bestehende tradi- tionelle Methoden für die phylodynamische Analyse sind nicht effizient für eine große Anzahl von Sequenzen. Um mit den heute verfügbaren Daten- sätzen umzugehen, sind effiziente Heuristiken notwendig.

Phylodynamics of Human Coxsackievirus B5

Future Virology, 2014
ABSTRACT:  Aim: Coxsackievirus B5 is recognized as an important pathogen in aseptic meningitis and hand, foot and mouth disease of children. A new distinctive sublineage of Coxsackievirus B5 associated with outbreak of neurological hand, foot and mouth disease in China was recently reported. Materials & methods: We employed a molecular evolution method

Phylodynamics of Influenza A Viruses

2015
Human populations are constantly exposed to emerging pathogens such as influenza A viruses that result from cross-species transmissions. Generally these sporadic events are evolutionary dead-ends, but occasionally, viruses establish themselves in a new host that offers a novel genomic context to which the virus must adjust to avoid attenuation. However,
