Co-radiation of <i>Leptospira</i> and Tenrecidae (Afrotheria) on Madagascar

2021-12-09

Abstract excerpt

Leptospirosis is a bacterial zoonosis caused by pathogenic Leptospira that are maintained in the kidney lumen of infected animals acting as reservoirs and contaminating the environment via infected urine. The investigation of leptospirosis through a One Health framework has been stimulated by notable genetic diversity of pathogenic Leptospira together with a high infection prevalence in certain animal reservoir...
