Increasing sophistication of population viability analysis has broadened our capacity to model population change while accounting for system complexit...

The causative bacterium of Lyme disease, Borrelia burgdorferi, expanded from an undetected human pathogen into the etiologic agent of the most common ...

Root and butt rot caused by pathogenic fungi in the genera Heterobasidion and Armillaria is a pressing issue in managed Norway spruce forests. The dis...

Non-invasive techniques have long been used to estimate wildlife population abundance and density. However, recent technological breakthroughs have fa...

The role and influence of exotic species in indigenous vector-borne diseases are important but remain understudied. Ascertaining whether disease vecto...

1. A stochastic individual-based model for simulating the dynamics of an infectious disease in sympatric red and grey squirrel populations is describe...

In recent years bovine tuberculosis (TB) incidence in cattle has been increasing in south-west England. The European badger Meles meles is implicated ...

A computer model is described which simulates the spread of barley yellow dwarf luteovirus (BYDV) by aphids in winter cereals in SW England. The model...

Disease prevalence in wildlife is governed by epidemiological parameters (infection and recovery rates) and response to infection, both of which vary ...
