Emerging infectious disease: An underappreciated area of strategic concern for food security

Daniel R. Brooks et al.

Summary: Emerging infectious diseases pose a threat to global food security and public health, with rising treatment costs and production losses. The coevolution between pathogens and hosts leads to the emergence of new diseases, while factors like global climate change and globalization contribute to the frequent occurrence of EIDs. Adopting proactive measures to anticipate and mitigate the impacts of emerging infectious diseases is crucial in addressing this global challenge.

'Accidents waiting to happen'-Insights from a simple model on the emergence of infectious agents in new hosts

Sofia G. Feronato et al.

Summary: This study evaluates the effects of different parameters of pathogens on the colonization of new host species, finding that reproductive rate, rate of novelty emergence, and propagule size all have a positive impact on colonization success, with novelty emergence being the least important factor. The study supports the empirical observation that opportunity of encounter is a fundamental determinant for the emergence of new infectious diseases.

Liberating host-virus knowledge from biological dark data

Nathan S. Upham et al.

Summary: Lockdowns during the pandemic have highlighted the issue of biological dark data, where published data is disconnected from digital knowledge resources, limiting analysis. Building digitally connected knowledge graphs can help identify host-pathogen interactions quickly and strengthen human and planetary health systems.

Evolutionary Diversification in Insect Vector-Phytoplasma-Plant Associations

V Trivellone et al.

Summary: The association between insect herbivores and vascular plants plays a crucial role in terrestrial evolution, with microbes playing important roles in mediating these interactions. The study of plant-pathogenic bacteria and their insect vectors provides a new model for understanding how distantly related but ecologically associated groups of organisms can drive evolutionary diversification. The research highlights the functional ecology and phylogenetic components of these associations, shedding light on the evolutionary diversification of the system.

Historical contingency, geography and anthropogenic patterns of exposure drive the evolution of host switching in the Blastocystis species-complex

Justin J. S. Wilcox et al.

Summary: This study investigated the evolutionary patterns of host switching by parasites using big-data phylogenetic approach. Findings suggest that patterns of host usage were mainly determined by geographic location and shared environments of hosts, with propagule pressure playing a crucial role in the colonization of new hosts within the Blastocystis species-complex.

Screening potential insect vectors in a museum biorepository reveals undiscovered diversity of plant pathogens in natural areas

Valeria Trivellone et al.

Summary: This study revealed that museum collections of herbivorous insects can be a valuable resource for discovering new plant pathogens, unknown phytoplasma strains exist in natural habitats worldwide, posing a potential threat to agricultural systems.

Identification of novel bat coronaviruses sheds light on the evolutionary origins of SARS-CoV-2 and related viruses

Hong Zhou et al.

Summary: A study in Yunnan province, China, found the existence of bat coronaviruses related to both SARS-CoV-2 and SARS-CoV, with RpYN06 virus being the closest relative of SARS-CoV-2. Ecological modeling predicted the co-existence of up to 23 Rhinolophus bat species, with the largest hot-spots extending from South Laos and Vietnam to southern China. The study highlights the remarkable diversity of bat coronaviruses at the local scale.

The persistent threat of emerging plant disease pandemics to global food security

Jean B. Ristaino et al.

Summary: The global increase in plant disease outbreaks poses a threat to food security for vulnerable populations, while a human pandemic is also threatening the health of millions worldwide. To address these challenges, new tools such as disease surveillance and improved detection technologies are needed to prevent future outbreaks, as well as an integrated research agenda to mitigate future plant disease pandemics.

Leveraging natural history biorepositories as a global, decentralized, pathogen surveillance network

Jocelyn P. Colella et al.

Summary: The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic has exposed a lack of publicly available biological samples representative across space, time, and taxonomic diversity, hindering the identification and monitoring of emerging pathogens. Developing a decentralized global network for zoonotic pathogen surveillance through natural history museum biorepositories is crucial for proactive detection and mitigation of emerging infectious diseases. The Museums and Emerging Pathogens in the Americas (MEPA) model demonstrates effective international collaboration and should be replicated in other biodiversity hotspots to maximize strategic growth and utility for EID research.
