Orthopoxvirus Genes That Mediate Disease Virulence and Host Tropism
Advances in Virology, 2012 In the course of evolution, viruses have developed various molecular mechanisms to evade the defense reactions of the host organism. When understanding the mechanisms used by viruses to overcome manifold defense systems of the animal organism ...

Microbial Ecology of Permafrost Soils: Populations, Processes, and Perspectives
Permafrost and Periglacial Processes, Volume 36, Issue 2, Page 245-258, April/June 2025.ABSTRACT Permafrost microbial research has flourished in the past decades, due in part to improvements in sampling and molecular techniques, but also the increased focus on the permafrost greenhouse gas feedback to climate change and other ecological processes in high latitude and alpine permafrost soils.

Smallpox in the Post-Eradication Era
Viruses, 2020 Widespread vaccination programmes led to the global eradication of smallpox, which was certified by the World Health Organisation (WHO), and, since 1978, there has been no case of smallpox anywhere in the world.

Pandemic Prevention Paradigms: Understanding Global Health Governance
Public Health Challenges, Volume 4, Issue 2, June 2025.One Health is an emerging area of integrative studies and interventions aimed at preventing zoonotic diseases by addressing human, animal, and environmental interactions. A fundamental aspect of the concept is understanding how these interactions influence health outcomes among humans, animals, and ecosystems. Developed initially to respond to the need

Time scale evolution of avipoxviruses [PDF]
, 1952 Avipoxviruses are divided into three clades: canarypox-like viruses, fowlpox-like viruses, and psittacinepox-like viruses. Several molecular clock and demographic models available in the BEAST package were compared on three avipoxvirus genes (P4b ...

Land Use Change and Infectious Disease Emergence
Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 63, Issue 2, June 2025.Abstract Major infectious diseases threatening human health are transmitted to people from animals or by arthropod vectors such as insects. In recent decades, disease outbreaks have become more common, especially in tropical regions, including new and emerging infections that were previously undetected or unknown. Even though there is growing awareness
