Genomic Analysis of Human-infecting Leptospira borgpetersenii isolates in Sri Lanka expanded PF07598 gene family repertoire, less overall genome reduction than bovine isolates

Indika Senavirathna, Dinesha Jayasundara, Janith Niwanthaka Warnasekara…·Joseph Michael Vinetz

This paper reports the complete genomes of seven human-infecting Leptospira borgpetersenii isolates from Sri Lanka, showing less genome decay and expanded PF07598 gene family compared to bovine isolates.

Time series models for prediction of Leptospirosis in different climate zones in Sri LankaTime series models for prediction of Leptospirosis in different climate zones in Sri Lanka

Janith Niwanthaka Warnasekara, Suneth Buddhika Agampodi, N. R. Abeynayake

This study uses time series models to predict leptospirosis incidence in Sri Lanka based on meteorological data, finding varying associations between climate variables and disease rates across different zones.
