C. title: Viral Host Jumps: Moving toward a Predictive Framework date: 2008-02-13 words: 6922 flesch: 32 summary: Though the relative rates of inactivation of different virus species depend on specific environmental conditions (such as temperature and relative humidity), requiring an envelope for successful cellular infection may generally decrease the ability of a virus to survive outside a host, since the phospholipid membrane will be sensitive to desiccation, ultraviolet radiation, changes in pH, and ozone toxicity (Cox, 1989) . Focusing on the appearance of viral pathogens in new host species, I outline a framework that uses specific molecular characteristics to rank virus families by their expected a priori ability to complete each of three steps in the emergence process (encounter, infection, and propagation). keywords: encounter; et al; host; host species; infection; potential; replication; species; virus; viruses cache: cord-276585-m1dkkbq7.txt plain text: cord-276585-m1dkkbq7.txt item: #35 of 49 id: cord-278195-1sle0d1j author: Castillo-Huitrón, Nathalia M. title: The Importance of Human Emotions for Wildlife Conservation date: 2020-06-24 words: 8076 flesch: 32 summary: The nature of emotions human emotions have deep evolutionary roots, a fact that may explain their complexity and provide tools for clinical practice Scary and nasty beasts: self-reported fear and disgust of common phobic animals Which emotions are basic?

Bearing in mind that, generally, pathogen dynamics are driven by the dynamics of the overall biological diversity of the community and not of one single reservoir or vector host species, then future research should concentrate on revisiting the idea of disease transmission using a broader community-scale perspective than the one generally applied. keywords: communities; disease; host; host species; pathogen; reservoir; species; transmission; vector cache: cord-312545-io2jmp7o.txt plain text: cord-312545-io2jmp7o.txt item: #43 of 49 id: cord-312555-qytl2vqt author: da Silva, Josivan Soares title: Use of game fauna by Fulni-ô people in Northeastern Brazil: implications for conservation date: 2020-04-17 words: 6743 flesch: 44 summary: Furthermore, we did not find any variation between the periods mentioned above in relation to the number of hunted species (R 2 = 0.13, F = 1.53, p > 0.05).

However, the identification of the contexts in which a dilution effect may occur is still highly debated in ecology, as it strongly depends on local host species diversity and on the interactions occurring between the species involved in the transmission cycle [30] . keywords: disease; health; host; ias; invasive; pathogens; risk; species cache: cord-316999-712rit8h.txt plain text: cord-316999-712rit8h.txt item: #45 of 49 id: cord-320295-k2i52wgs author: Woolhouse, Mark E.J. title: Host Range and Emerging and Reemerging Pathogens date: 2005-12-17 words: 3403 flesch: 39 summary: General definitions The global distribution and population at risk of malaria: past, present and future The growing burden of tuberculosis: global trends and interactions with the HIV epidemic Evolvability of emerging viruses Emerging pathogens: the epidemiology and evolution of species jumps Population biology of emerging and re-emerging pathogens Emerging infectious pathogens of wildlife We thank Louise Taylor and Sophie Latham for their work on the original database and Ben Evans for his contribution to the updated database.
