Feathers and flu: identifying data gaps in avian influenza host dynamics to prioritize wildlife conservation Plumas y gripe: identificación de datos faltantes en la dinámica de hospedadores de la influenza aviar para priorizar la conservación de la vida silvestre

Wildlife Monographs, Volume 225, Issue 1, September 2026.
We describe the host response continuum for highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses (HPAIV), including the continuum of host responses to HPAIV infection and exposure based on the primary axis of host competence, ability to infect other hosts, and host vulnerability.

Phylogeny, Evolution, and Transmission Dynamics of Canine and Feline Coronaviruses: A Retro-Prospective Study

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Canine coronavirus (CCoV) and feline coronavirus (FCoV) are endemic in companion animals. Due to their high mutation rates and tendencies of genome recombination, they pose potential threats to public health.

Epidemiology, Genomic Diversity, and Evolutionary Dynamics of Human Metapneumovirus Over 7 Years of Integrated Community‐ and Hospital‐Based Sentinel Surveillance in Senegal, 2018–2024

Influenza and Other Respiratory Viruses, Volume 20, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Background In late 2024, a major human metapneumovirus (HMPV) outbreak in China caused widespread pneumonia and thousands of hospitalizations, drawing global attention to this virus. In Senegal, a concomitant rise in HMPV detections was observed in both community and hospital settings.

Model diagnostics and refinement for phylodynamic models

PLOS Computational Biology, 2019
Phylodynamic modelling, which studies the joint dynamics of epidemiological and evolutionary processes, has made significant progress in recent years due to increasingly available genomic data and advances in statistical modelling. These advances have greatly improved our understanding of transmission dynamics of many important pathogens. Nevertheless,

Phylodynamic approaches to studying avian influenza virus

Avian Pathology, 2023
Avian influenza viruses can cause severe disease in domestic and wild birds and are a pandemic threat. Phylodynamics is the study of how epidemiological, evolutionary, and immunological processes can interact to shape viral phylogenies. This review summarizes how phylodynamic methods have and could contribute to the study of avian influenza viruses ...

Foodborne Risk to Human Health of Hepatitis E Virus in Pigs and Pigmeat in Ireland

Food Risk Assess Europe, Volume 4, Issue 3, July 2026.
Abstract Hepatitis E virus (HEV) is a major cause of acute viral hepatitis in people worldwide. In Ireland, evidence of past HEV exposure has been identified in approximately 5% of blood donors, while a small proportion have detectable viral RNA. HEV is also present in pigs and has been detected in pigmeat products, raising concerns about foodborne ...

Beyond birds: rethinking bird‐centered pathogen models in light of insect migration

Ecography, Volume 2026, Issue 6, June 2026.
Migration redistributes biomass, nutrients, and pathogens across ecosystems. For decades, migratory birds have been treated as the default long‐distance pathogen vectors, shaping both conceptual frameworks and empirical models of disease ecology.

Bayesian phylodynamic inference with complex models

PLOS Computational Biology, 2018
Abstract Population genetic modeling can enhance Bayesian phylogenetic inference by providing a realistic prior on the distribution of branch lengths and times of common ancestry.The parameters of a population genetic model may also have intrinsic importance, and simultaneous estimation of a phylogeny and model ...

Molecular characterization of the meq oncogene of Marek’s disease virus in vaccinated Brazilian poultry farms reveals selective pressure on prevalent strains

Veterinary Quarterly
Marek’s disease virus (MDV) has become an increasingly virulent pathogen in the poultry industry despite vaccination efforts to control it. Brazil has experienced a significant rise of Marek’s disease (MD) outbreaks in recent years.

Molecular epidemiology and pathogenicity of H5N1 and H9N2 avian influenza viruses in clinically affected chickens on farms in Bangladesh

Emerging Microbes and Infections, 2021
Avian influenza virus (AIV) subtypes H5N1 and H9N2 co-circulate in poultry in Bangladesh, causing significant bird morbidity and mortality. Despite their importance to the poultry value chain, the role of farms in spreading and maintaining AIV infections
