Abstract:
... We describe a case of interspecies transmission of toxigenic Clostridioides difficile involving a female and her dog, both with diarrhea without another diagnosis. Genomic analysis showed that isolates were grouped into MLST clade I, closely related to ribotype 020 and shared identical genotypes. ...

Abstract:
... Rotaviruses species A (RVA) are etiological agents of diarrhoea and are considered zoonotic viruses; yet the epidemiology of RVA among pet animals is largely unknown. RVA was detected in 38 of 308 faecal samples (12.3%) from pet, sheltered, or stray dogs and cats in 2 municipalities of Rio de Janeiro state, Brazil. The results indicated that these viruses are common in canine and feline population ...

Abstract:
... Disease (re)emergence appears to be driven by biodiversity decline and environmental change. As a result, it is increasingly important to study host–pathogen interactions within the context of their ecology and evolution. The dilution effect is the concept that higher biodiversity decreases pathogen transmission. It has been observed especially in zoonotic vector‐borne pathosystems, yet evidence a ...

Abstract:
... COVID-19 has forced government and health agencies to take measures to mitigate the spread of the disease and thus safeguard as many lives as possible. These measures have initially impacted the economy of many countries, and therefore they have been forced to gradually return to a new normalcy, in what they have called reopening. For reopening policies to be effective, it is necessary that the pe ...

Abstract:
... Mass mortality of the sea urchin Strongylocentrotus intermedius and consequent economic losses occur in the aquaculture industry due to the outbreak of black mouth disease. Decreasing the physical contact between the healthy and diseased sea urchins is proposed to be an effective approach to preventing the disease transmission. Laboratory experiments were designed to investigate whether different ...

Abstract:
... Avian influenza viruses (AIVs) circulating in wild ducks are rarely transmitted directly to chickens. Previous studies demonstrated that chickens possess fucosylated and/or sulfated α2,3 sialosides on their tracheal epithelia, whereas intestinal epithelia of ducks express canonical α2,3 sialosides. Turkeys, the third major poultry species in the world, are known to show broad susceptibility to var ...
