a longitudinal study of sin nombre virus prevalence in rodents, southeastern arizona.we determined the prevalence of sin nombre virus antibodies in small mammals in southeastern arizona. of 1,234 rodents (from 13 species) captured each month from may through december 1995, only mice in the genus peromyscus were seropositive. antibody prevalence was 14.3% in 21 white-footed mice (p. leucopus), 13.3% in 98 brush mice (p. boylii), 0.8% in 118 cactus mice (p. eremicus), and 0% in 2 deer mice (p. maniculatus). most antibody-positive mice were adult male peromyscus captured close to o ...199910081678
host and viral traits predict zoonotic spillover from mammals.the majority of human emerging infectious diseases are zoonotic, with viruses that originate in wild mammals of particular concern (for example, hiv, ebola and sars). understanding patterns of viral diversity in wildlife and determinants of successful cross-species transmission, or spillover, are therefore key goals for pandemic surveillance programs. however, few analytical tools exist to identify which host species are likely to harbour the next human virus, or which viruses can cross species ...201728636590
