INTERSPECIES TRANSMISSION AND HOST RESTRICTION OF INFLUENZA A VIRUSES
… A viruses shows host range restrictions, interspecies transmission have been documented at many occasions. Swine have been proposed as an intermediate hosts for influenza viruses since they are susceptible to both avian and human influenza viruses and genetic reassortment up on …

Genomic insights into the host range and interspecies transmission dynamics of Staphylococcus aureus
… between different species, with some of these transmissions resulting in successful adaptation and ongoing transmission in a new species. Given an ever-increasing risk of zoonotic disease emergence due to changes in the humananimal interface, it is increasingly important that we understand the …

Reverse Zoonosis of Pandemic A(H1N1)pdm09 Influenza Viruses at the Swine/Human Interface
… surveillance program to look for evidence of interspecies transmission of H1N1pdm09 viruses in the US. We found phylogenetic evidence for multiple human to swine transmission events, all of which were transient suggesting that the human adapted viruses of swine origin had lost some fitness for …

SARS-COV-2 EVOLUTION AND TRANSMISSION: WITHIN-HOST, BETWEEN-HOST, AND BETWEEN-SPECIES
… vaccinated and unvaccinated hosts, and explore interspecies transmission between humans and animals. We found that SARS-CoV-2 evolution rates are increased during prolonged immunocompromised infection, with dominant drug resistant substitutions arising within weeks of treatment. In a …

Demographics and Transfer of Escherichia coli Within Bos taurus Populations
… between individuals of the same species and if interspecies transmission is possible. Proximity of cattle was also studied as a contributing factor to the transfer of <em>E. coli</em>. To accomplish this goal, <em>E. coli</em> isolates from cattle and cohabitating ground squirrels were compared …

Mechanisms of Emerging RNA Virus Adaptation to Hosts
… increase. Viral adaptation enabling intra- or interspecies transmission can cause outbreaks on the scale of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) during the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic. Understanding the mechanisms by which emerging RNA viruses adapt to hosts can …

Molecular investigation of bovine leukemia virus in selected wildlife in Zambia.
… in Zambian wildlife species. This study suggests interspecies transmission of BLV between wildlife and cattle in the country. There is therefore need to limit interaction between cattle and wildlife especially on farms that may be keeping both to avoid disease spill over. While risk factors for …

Soils, Symbiosis, and Succession: Eco-centric Care in Eastern Ontario
… species lines, by understanding the mode of interspecies living together as mutually constitutive. The thesis develops the entanglements of interspecies living together as symbiosis. Symbiosis involves relatedness through living together in which each entity is shaped in interaction with each …

Pandemic Potential of Reassortant Swine Influenza A Viruses
… of factors. Swine play a pivotal role in the interspecies transmission of influenza A viruses, as they are susceptible to infection with both human and avian strains and have been implicated as a “mixing vessel” for the reassortment of influenza A viruses from different species. The …

Understanding host, pathogen, environment dynamics in the marine environment with a particular focus on the Pacific oyster crassostrea gigas and its pathogens
… present study identified for the first time, the transmission of this virus from both Mytilus edulis and Mytilus spp. to naïve C. gigas, which occurred in the laboratory under an increased and increasing temperature regime. This study confirms that these pathogens are capable of maintaining …

Characterization of a novel bioluminescent reporter protein for the non-invasive preclinical imaging of viral infection
… originate from animals, facilitating zoonotic transmission and the potential for pandemics. RNA viruses exhibit a wide range of hosts, leading to interspecies transmission and the emergence of novel diseases. Treatment options are often limited, and vaccine development can be challenging due to …

Characterization of the 37-kDa/67-kDa laminin receptor as the cell surface receptor for the cellular prion protein
… conversion process and might be involved in PrP interspecies transmission. Recently, crystallization of the prion protein in a dimeric form was reported. Size exclusion chromatography showed that native soluble homogeneous FLAG tagged prion proteins from hamster, man and cattle expressed in the …
