The Release of Non‐Native Gamebirds Is Associated With Amplified Zoonotic Disease Risk
Ecology Letters, Volume 28, Issue 4, April 2025.Spillback is potentially an important mechanism by which non‐natives contribute to zoonotic disease emergence. We capitalise on quasi‐experimental releases of non‐native pheasants (Phasianus colchicus) to compare native pathogen prevalence between sites with similar local conditions but different non‐native densities. Prevalence of Borrelia sp.

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.In mammals, detection of Wolbachia bacteria can be used to diagnose filarial infection, while antibiotic treatment to eliminate Wolbachia can assist in eliminating filarial infections. Because Wolbachia are necessary for survival of several filarioids and closely related to Anaplasma and Ehrlichia, we analyzed Wolbachia DNA amplification by Anaplasma ...

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.Leishmania spp. is an intracellular obligate protozoan that causes the zoonotic disease leishmaniosis. Although the dog has always been considered the main reservoir, the number of species involved in transmission of the parasite is increasingly numerous and includes both domestic species, such as cats or horses, wildlife species, and livestock such as

Does Baylisascaris procyonis Impact Raccoon (Procyon lotor) Genetics? [PDF]
, 2014 Raccoons (Procyon lotor) are the final host for raccoon roundworms (Baylisascaris procyonis). Raccoon roundworm is the leading cause of a dangerous neurological disease, known as larva migrans encephalopathy. Phylogenetic trees illustrate co-evolutionary
