Population genetics, phylogeography and gene flow of mainland and island vampire bat (Desmodus rotundus) populations: an investigation into mainland-island bat movement

J. F. R. Seetahal, D. G. Streicker, P. Beerli, N. Sahadeo, P. Lemey, M. J. Sanchez-Vazquez, A. Broos, L. Bergner, V. Ramkissoon, R. Mahabir, P. Tihul, D. Hartley, A. Van Sauers, G. Karg, R. S. Mohammed, , C. V. F. Carrington

The paper investigates gene flow between mainland and island vampire bat populations in Trinidad, finding genetic distinctness and male-biased gene flow, with implications for rabies virus spread.

Incorporating environmental heterogeneity and observation effort to predict host distribution and viral spillover from a bat reservoir.

R. Ribeiro, J. Matthiopoulos, F. Lindgren, C. Tello, C. M. Zariquiey, W. Valderrama, T. E. Rocke, D. G. Streicker

The paper predicts the spatial distribution of vampire bat roosts and identifies undetected hotspots to improve rabies spillover risk assessment.

Variation in the ACE2 receptor has limited utility for SARS-CoV-2 host prediction

N. Mollentze, D. Keen, U. Munkhbayar, R. Biek, D. G. Streicker

The paper shows that ACE2 receptor variation is not a reliable predictor of SARS-CoV-2 host susceptibility due to its strong correlation with host phylogeny rather than viral binding mechanisms.

Respiratory disease in cats associated with human-to-cat transmission of SARS-CoV-2 in the UK

M. J. Hosie, I. Epifano, V. Herder, R. Orton, A. Stevenson, N. Johnson, E. MacDonald, D. Dunbar, M. McDonald, F. Howie, B. Tennant, D. Herrity, A. C. Filipe, D. G. Streicker, B. J. Willett, , COVID-19 Genomics UK Consortium

This study reports two cases of SARS-CoV-2 infection in UK cats linked to human-to-cat transmission, showing mild to severe respiratory disease and genetic variation in the viral genome.
