Estimating pathogen‐spillover risk using host–ectoparasite interactions

Reilly N. Brennan,
Sally L. Paulson,
Luis E. Escobar

Abstract: Pathogen spillover corresponds to the transmission of a pathogen or parasite from an original host species to a novel host species, preluding disease emergence. Understanding the interacting factors that lead to pathogen transmission in a zoonotic cycle could help identify novel hosts of pathogens and the patterns that lead to disease emergence. We hypothesize that ecological and biogeographic factors drive host encounters, infection susceptibility, and cross‐species spillover transmission. Using a rodent–ecto… Show more
