Host species heterogeneity in the epidemiology of Nesopora caninum

Abstract: Pathogen transmission across species drives disease emergence; however, mechanisms by which multi-host pathogens cross species boundaries are not well identified. This knowledge gap prevents integrated and targeted control in an epidemiologically continuous ecosystem. Our goal is to describe the impact of host species heterogeneity on the epidemiology of Neospora caninum circulating between livestock and wildlife in southeastern Ohio. We collected biological samples from Père David’s deer (Elaphurus davidianus… Show more

“…Beyond a lack of parameters for quantifying livestock-wildlife contact, even defining what constitutes an epidemiological relevant contact was the primary hurdle of 3 models ( 29 , 64 , 69 ). Balancing model complexity with utility was the main hurdle in 4 models.…”

“…The likelihood estimations were performed using the "optim" function in R [21]. The catalytic and reverse catalytic model fitting was determined as described in Pomeroy et al, [14] and Moreno-Torres et al, [22]. The chi-square test was used to compare the seroprevalence with hosts related health parameters like age and sex as well as study sites.…”

“…Today, more than 8000 Père David’s deer are raised in parts of China [ 8 ], especially on our nature reserves. According to the report, bacteria [ 2 , 9 – 11 ], viruses [ 12 , 13 ] and parasites such as helminth [ 14 , 15 ] and protozoa [ 16 20 ] are a potential threat to the survival of the Père David’s deer. In order to better protect Père David’s deer, we collected some feces of Père David’s deer for examination, and found an Eimeria that had never been described.…”
