Human-mediated foot-and-mouth disease epidemic dispersal: disease and vector clusters.
Disease clusters were retrospectively explored at national level using a geo-referenced dataset from the 2001 Uruguayan Foot-and-Mouth Disease (FMD) epidemic. Disease location and time (first 11 epidemic weeks) were analysed across 250 counties (of which 160 were infected), without and with control for human mobility related factors (human population and road densities). The null hypothesis of ...
متن کاملGlobal dispersal reduces local diversity.
Metapopulation models and stepping-stone models in genetics are based on very different underlying dispersal structures, yet it can be difficult to distinguish the behaviour of the two kinds of models. We demonstrate a striking qualitative difference in the equilibrium behaviour possible with these two kinds of dispersal. If, in a local patch, there are multiple stable equilibria (and consequen...
متن کاملThe chikungunya disease: modeling, vector and transmission global dynamics.
Models for the transmission of the chikungunya virus to human population are discussed. The chikungunya virus is an alpha arbovirus, first identified in 1953. It is transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes and is responsible for a little documented uncommon acute tropical disease. Models describing the mosquito population dynamics and the virus transmission to the human population are discussed. Global ...

متن کاملAerial dispersal of pathogens on the global and continental scales and its impact on plant disease.
Some of the most striking and extreme consequences of rapid, long-distance aerial dispersal involve pathogens of crop plants. Long-distance dispersal of fungal spores by the wind can spread plant diseases across and even between continents and reestablish diseases in areas where host plants are seasonally absent. For such epidemics to occur, hosts that are susceptible to the same pathogen genot...
