‘Keeping the kids at home’ can limit the persistence of contagious pathogens in social animals

Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 90, Issue 11, Page 2523-2535, November 2021., 2021
Using a spatially implicit individual‐based susceptible‐infected‐recovered (SIR) model, the authors show that in host populations where juveniles are isolated from contact with individuals in other social groups, the transmission and persistence of contagious pathogens is reduced.

First report of porcine parainfluenza virus 1 (species Porcine respirovirus 1) in Europe

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 68, Issue 4, Page 1731-1735, July 2021., 2021
Abstract Porcine respirovirus 1, also known as Porcine parainfluenza virus 1 (PPIV‐1) was first identified in Hong Kong in 2013, later in the USA and most recently in Chile. Here, we report the first detection of PPIV‐1 outside these three regions. We screened 22 farms in Hungary by testing 15 nasal swab samples obtained from 3‐week‐old piglets (3 ...

Combining genomics and epidemiology to track mumps virus transmission in the United States. [PDF]

, 2020
Unusually large outbreaks of mumps across the United States in 2016 and 2017 raised questions about the extent of mumps circulation and the relationship between these and prior outbreaks.

Co-Circulation and Excretion Dynamics of Diverse Rubula- and Related Viruses in Egyptian Rousette Bats from South Africa

Viruses, 2019
The Egyptian rousette bat (Rousettus aegyptiacus) has previously been implicated as the natural host of a zoonotic rubulavirus; however, its association with rubulaviruses has been studied to a limited extent.

The Complete Sequence of a Human Parainfluenzavirus 4 Genome

Viruses, 2009
Although the human parainfluenza virus 4 (HPIV4) has been known for a long time, its genome, alone among the human paramyxoviruses, has not been completely sequenced to date.

From conifers to cognition: Microbes, brain and behavior

Genes, Brain and Behavior, Volume 19, Issue 8, November 2020., 2020
A century ago biologists were surprised to discover live microbes (endophytes) within healthy plant tissues. It is now apparent that this is also true of mammals where, in addition to the gut microbiome, a diversity of endogenous microbes (endozoites) are present in multiple tissues including the brain.
