Coronavirus Detection in Bats Captured on the Deforestation Arc of Mato Grosso, Brazil

open access: yesZoonoses and Public Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Coronaviruses (CoV) are RNA viruses associated with enteric and respiratory diseases and known for their emergence potential in humans and other mammals. CoVs originate from zoonotic transmission, in which bats are natural reservoirs. Previous studies suggest that CoV diversity is positively correlated with bat diversity, whereas anthropogenic

The macroecology of immunity: predominant influence of climate on invertebrate immune response

open access: yesEcography, Volume 2026, Issue 4, April 2026.
The immune system is the primary defense against parasites. With the ever‐increasing rate of disease, epidemiologic models considering geographic variation in immune responses could prove useful. Despite increasing interest in the macroecology of parasitism and infectious diseases, we know little about the macroecology of immune responses (i.e ...
