Faecal virome of the Australian grey-headed flying fox from urban/suburban environments contains novel coronaviruses, retroviruses and sapoviruses

Kate Van Brussel et al.

Summary: This study characterized the virome of greyheaded flying foxes in Australia using metatranscriptomic sequencing and identified novel viruses, including a bat betacoronavirus and a bat sapovirus, which were the first of their kind found in Australian bats.

Estimating flying-fox mortality associated with abandonments of pups and extreme heat events during the austral summer of 2019-20

Matthew Mo et al.

Summary: This study examines mass mortalities in Australian flying-fox camps in the 2019-20 summer, caused by pup abandonments and extreme heat events. The results show that pup mortalities were recorded in 10 camps in New South Wales, with the majority occurring in one camp in Bomaderry. Die-offs from extreme heat events were recorded in 40 camps associated with eight separate heat events in south-eastern Australia. The minimum estimated mortality represents the highest recorded mortality of Australian flying-foxes within a single summer.

Skin manifestations of Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections

Nikolaos Spernovasilis et al.

Summary: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen that can lead to skin infections with significant morbidity and mortality. Recent evidence has shed light on the epidemiology and diagnosis of these infections, which often require systemic antibiotics in order to effectively treat them. Different types of P. aeruginosa skin infections, such as Green nail syndrome and hot tub folliculitis, may require specialized treatment approaches and a multidisciplinary team.

The Epidemiology and Pathogenesis and Treatment of Pseudomonas aeruginosa Infections: An Update

Dan Reynolds et al.

Summary: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a Gram-negative bacterial pathogen commonly causing nosocomial infections, with increasing trends of antimicrobial resistance. It has various virulence mechanisms like toxin secretion and biofilm formation. Management includes prevention, obtaining cultures, and prompt antimicrobial therapy, sometimes requiring combination therapy.

Lessons from the host defences of bats, a unique viral reservoir

Aaron T. Irving et al.

Summary: Recent outbreaks of emerging viral diseases have been linked to suspected zoonotic transmission of bat-borne viruses. Bats display unique biological characteristics shaped by millions of years of adaptive evolution. Understanding the mechanisms of immune tolerance in bats could help improve human health.

Ecology and impacts of white-nose syndrome on bats

Joseph R. Hoyt et al.

Summary: This review discusses the impact of Pseudogymnoascus destructans on bat populations and communities in North America, emphasizing the importance of understanding host life history in uncovering the ecology of the pathogen. It also delves into the patterns of P. destructans spread, pathogenesis of white-nose syndrome, and the cross-scale impact from individual hosts to ecosystems. The research highlights how early pathogen detection and quantification of host impacts have accelerated the understanding of this newly emerging infectious disease.

Current challenges to virus discovery by metatranscriptomics

Joanna C. A. Cobbin et al.

Summary: Meta-transcriptomic next-generation sequencing has revolutionized virus discovery by expanding our knowledge of the virosphere, but faces challenges such as errors and limitations in viral sequences in public databases, as well as the lack of bioinformatic tools to identify novel viruses accurately.

The scope and severity of white-nose syndrome on hibernating bats in North America

Tina L. Cheng et al.

Summary: The study evaluated the threat impact of white-nose syndrome on bat populations by analyzing winter bat count data. Declines of more than 90% were observed in three bat species, classifying the severity of the WNS threat as extreme. Data-sharing allowed for a comprehensive evaluation of the scope and severity of the threat.

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.

Metagenomic analysis of fecal and tissue samples from 18 endemic bat species in Switzerland revealed a diverse virus composition including potentially zoonotic viruses

Isabelle Hardmeier et al.

Summary: Recent studies have shown that bats in Switzerland carry a variety of viruses, including some with potential zoonotic risks. Metagenomic analysis of non-invasive samples like ground stool can support effective surveillance and early detection of viral zoonoses.
