Despite the efforts invested in the eradication of bovine tuberculosis in Spain, herd prevalence has remained constant in the country during the last 15 years (~1.5–1.9%) due to a combination of epidemiological factors impairing disease control ...

A69 Phylodynamics of language evolution [PDF]
Abstract We used Bayesian evolutionary analysis to study linguistic data and infer phylogenetic trees of language evolution. Languages were encoded as binary strings indicating the presence or absence of members of cognate classes, the equivalence of classes of words with similar meaning, and shared ancestry.

Phylodynamics of deer tick virus in North America
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.

The HIV-1 epidemic in the Amazonas state, as in most of Brazil, is dominated by subtype B. The state, nonetheless, is singular for its significant co-circulation of the variants BCAR, which can mostly be found in the Caribbean region, and BPAN, a clade ...

Phylodynamics of the Brazilian feline immunodeficiency virus
Feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV), like other retroviruses, displays large genomic divergence when different isolates are compared. In this study, 31 FIV positive samples of domestic cats from Porto Alegre, RS, Brazil were used aiming at a detailed genomic characterization and a better understanding of the molecular epidemiology of the virus in ...

Phylodynamic approaches to studying avian influenza virus
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 ...

A systematic review of avian influenza virus transmission models: Gaps and opportunities
Abstract Highly pathogenic avian influenza virus (HPAIV) increasingly threatens wild birds, poultry, non‐human mammals and humans, yet gaps and opportunities in avian influenza virus (AIV) transmission modelling have not been comprehensively synthesized.

A genomic analysis of 853 Southeast Asian Acinetobacter baumannii isolates reveals the regional dominance of the highly resistant Global Clone 2 (GC2) lineage. Characterised by diverse mobile elements and distinct phage defenses, these findings establish a critical baseline to guide future surveillance and broader regional sampling.

The phylodynamics of the rabies virus in the Russian Federation
Near complete rabies virus N gene sequences (1,110 nt) were determined for 82 isolates obtained from different regions of Russia between 2008 and 2016. These sequences were analyzed together with 108 representative GenBank sequences from 1977-2016 using the Bayesian coalescent approach. The timing of the major evolutionary events was estimated. Most of

Comprehensive phylogeographic and phylodynamic analyses of global Senecavirus A
Senecavirus A (SVA) is a member of the genus Senecavirus in the family Picornaviridae that infects pigs and shows symptoms similar to foot and mouth diseases and other vesicular diseases. It is difficult to prevent, thus, causing tremendous economic loss to the pig industry.
