Acta Trop . 2024 Sep; 260:107401. PMID: 39277155
Fleas and ticks serve as vectors of multiple pathogens in the genera Rickettsia and Bartonella that cause diseases in humans and other animals. Although human rickettsiosis and bartonellosis have been...

Infect Immun . 2023 Dec; 92(1):e0024423. PMID: 38099660
Interactions among pathogen genotypes that vary in host specificity may affect overall transmission dynamics in multi-host systems. , a bacterium that causes Lyme disease, is typically transmitted among wildlife by...

Seidl C, Ferreira F, Parise K, Paxton K, Paxton E, Atkinson C, et al.
Int J Parasitol . 2023 Nov; 54(2):123-130. PMID: 37922977
Plasmodium parasites infect thousands of species and provide an exceptional system for studying host-pathogen dynamics, especially for multi-host pathogens. However, understanding these interactions requires an accurate assay of infection. Assessing...

Herb H, Gonzalez J, Ferreira F, Fonseca D
Parasitology . 2023 Oct; 150(11):1063-1069. PMID: 37791496
Piroplasms, which include the agents of cattle fever and human and dog babesiosis, are a diverse group of blood parasites of significant veterinary and medical importance. The invasive Asian longhorned...

Vieira L, Pereira P, Vilela D, Landau I, Pacheco M, Escalante A, et al.
Parasitology . 2023 Sep; 150(14):1296-1306. PMID: 37655743
The distribution of avian haemosporidians of the genus in the Neotropics remains poorly understood. Recent studies confirmed their presence in the region using molecular techniques alone, but evidence for gametocytes...

Parasitology . 2023 May; 150(14):1277-1285. PMID: 37246557
The relationships between host phylogenetics, functional traits and parasites in wildlife remain poorly understood in the Neotropics, especially in habitats with marked seasonal variation. Here, we examined the effect of...

Parasitology . 2022 Oct; 149(13):1667-1678. PMID: 36200511
Transmission mode is a key factor that influences host–parasite coevolution. Vector-borne pathogens are among the most important disease agents for humans and wildlife due to their broad distribution, high diversity,...
