Asymmetric Biotic Interactions Cannot Be Inferred Without Accounting for Priority Effects
Ecology Letters, Volume 27, Issue 9, September 2024.This study explores the influential role of priority effects, that is, the order of habitat colonisation, in shaping our ability to detect asymmetric biotic interactions. Using a simple set of simulations, we demonstrate that common approaches to detect interactions from cross‐sectional binary co‐occurrence data alone cannot make reliable inferences ...

Borrelia burgdorferi Aggrecanase Activity: More Evidence for Persistent Infection in Lyme Disease.
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2013 Lyme disease is the most common tickborne illness in the world today. A recent study describes for the first time an enzyme produced by the spirochetal agent of Lyme disease, Borrelia burgdorferi, that cleaves aggrecan, a proteoglycan found in joints and

Infection of Mice with the Agent of Human Granulocytic Ehrlichiosis after Different Routes of Inoculation [PDF]
, 2017 Population kinetics of the agent of human granulocytic ehrlichiosis (aoHGE) were examined after needle and tickborne inoculation of C3H mice. Blood, skin, lung, spleen, liver, kidney, brain, lymph node, and bone marrow samples were analyzed by using real-
