Effects of Diversity on Emerging Infectious Diseases of Amphibians

Creator:: Snyder, Paul W.
Abstract:: Species declines and extinctions have been recorded across taxa as evidence of an ongoing global biodiversity crisis. Amphibians are at the forefront of these declines with nearly one third of amphibian species estimated to be at risk of extinction. While many factors contribute to population declines and extinctions, the role...

Host-pathogen dynamics in a changing environment : susceptibility of amphibians to an emerging infectious disease

Creator:: Searle, Catherine L.
Abstract:: Infectious diseases are a growing concern for both humans and wildlife. The negative effects of infectious disease have been exemplified by the recent global amphibian population declines associated with disease outbreaks. Although multiple pathogens and factors play a role in these declines, the aquatic fungal pathogen, Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd), has...

Emerging infectious disease in lentic environments : the ecology and biogeography of the amphibian chytrid fungus Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis, with perspectives on water quality, limnology, and chemical contaminants

Creator:: Chestnut, Tara
Abstract:: Biodiversity losses in terrestrial, freshwater, and marine systems are accelerating at a global scale and the most threatened vertebrate taxa are those associated with freshwater habitats. The causes of biodiversity losses are often complex and include synergistic effects of natural and human-induced stressors, such as habitat loss and fragmentation, urbanization,...

Coexistence of Avian Influenza Virus H10 and H9 Subtypes among Chickens in Live Poultry Markets during an Outbreak of Infection with a Novel H10N8 Virus in Humans in Nanchang, China

Creator:: Hu, Maohong, Li, Xiaodan, Ni, Xiansheng, Wu, Jingwen, Gao, Rongbao, Xia, Wen, Wang, Dayan, He, Fenglan, Chen, Shengen, Liu, Yangqing, Guo, Shuangli, Li, Hui, Shu, Yuelong, Bethel, Jeffrey W., Liu, Mingbin, Moore, Justin B., and Chen, Haiying
Abstract:: Infection with the novel H10N8 virus in humans has raised concerns about its pandemic potential worldwide. We report the results of a cross-sectional study of avian influenza viruses (AIVs) in live poultry markets (LPMs) in Nanchang, China, after the first human case of H10N8 virus infection was reported in the...

Disentangling the Biotic and Abiotic Drivers of the Amphibian Disease Chytridiomycosis

Creator:: Bradley, Paul W.
Abstract:: The ongoing worldwide loss of biodiversity has been described as a "biodiversity crisis," "the Anthropocene defaunation," and alternatively "an extinction spasm." More recently, many scientists have come to the conclusion that we are witnesses to Earth's sixth major mass extinction event, which has the potential to fundamentally alter basic ecological...

The Role of Emerging Pathogens in Amphibian Population Declines : Experimental Evidence

Creator:: Hambalek, Natalie M.
Abstract:: Rapid rates of biodiversity loss have supported the notion that Earth is experiencing a sixth major extinction event. The causes of worldwide biodiversity loss are multifaceted and context dependent. One of the most prominent groups experiencing population declines and extinctions are amphibians. Several pathogens and their associated diseases are especially...

Development and Infectious Disease in Hosts with Complex Life Cycles

Creator:: Searle, Catherine L., Xie, Gisselle Yang, and Blaustein, Andrew R.
Abstract:: Metamorphosis is often characterized by profound changes in morphology and physiology that can affect the dynamics of species interactions. For example, the interaction between a pathogen and its host may differ depending on the life stage of the host or pathogen. One pathogen that infects hosts with complex life cycles...

Disease models and infectious phenotypes of Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis

Creator:: Everman, Jamie L.
Abstract:: Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis (MAP) is the causative agent of Johne's disease, a chronic inflammatory bowel disease that affects ruminant populations worldwide. The characteristic stages of the disease make diagnosis difficult, resulting in silent transmission among animals in a herd for years before proper detection of the infection. The extensive...

Environmental and Community Exposures and Children’s Infectious Diseases in Bangladesh

Creator:: Ahmed, Sharia M.
Abstract:: Under-5 mortality has decreased globally, but millions of children still die every year. In Bangladesh, respiratory infection and diarrheal disease remain leading causes of morbidity and mortality for children under-5, despite incredible progress in the past three decades. Immune system development begins in utero and continues into adulthood. Toxic environmental...

Wildlife Health in Managed Forests : Immunity and Infectious Diseases in Wild Rodents of Oregon

Creator:: Hanselmann, Rhea
Abstract:: With continual and worldwide human population growth, our impact on the natural environment expands and intensifies every day. We consume natural resources, burn fossil fuels, and release toxic compounds into the air, water, and earth. We build roads that fragment the landscape, construct new settlements, and develop agricultural lands in...
