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 ...

Background Swine influenza virus (SIV) is endemic in China, threatening the swine industry and public health. This meta‐analysis estimated the national pooled prevalence of SIV (2010–2025) and identified key sources of heterogeneity. Methods Following Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta‐Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines, six databases ...

Phylodynamics of viral infections
Phylodynamics is a recent field that aims at using genetic sequence data to estimate epidemiological parameters such as the viral population growth rate, the number of infections in the population or even their duration. Its main underlying assumption is that the way viruses spread leaves marks in their genome.

Phylodynamics and movement of Phycodnaviruses among aquatic environments [PDF]
Abstract Phycodnaviruses have a significant role in modulating the dynamics of phytoplankton, thereby influencing community structure and succession, nutrient cycles and potentially atmospheric composition because phytoplankton fix about half the carbon dioxide (CO2) on the planet, and some algae release dimethylsulphoniopropionate when ...

Infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) is one of the most impactful pathogens of poultry, with disease manifestations ranging from acute forms to subclinical but immunosuppressive infections. This heterogeneity, accompanied by a significant antigenic variability, is sustained by high mutation rates and frequent reassortments between the two genome ...

VirPhyKit: An Integrated Toolkit for Viral Phylogeographic Analysis
A new toolkit for phylogeographic analysis called VirPhyKit is developed. The toolkit integrates 12 specialized modules within an intuitive point‐and‐click interface, streamlining key tasks such as sequence curation, spatiotemporal subsampling, migration pattern analysis, and molecular dating. ABSTRACT The evolutionary, demographic, and phylogeographic

Parrot bornavirus (PaBV) is an RNA virus that causes Proventricular Dilatation Disease (PDD), neurological disorders, and death in Psittaciformes. Its diversity in South America is poorly known. We examined a Cacatua galerita presenting neuropathies, PDD,
