Symbiosis of a lytic bacteriophage and and characteristics of plague in .

Surveillance for animal plague was conducted in the plague focus of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau from 2020 to 2023. A 22.89% positive rate of serum F1 antibody was detected in live-caught marmots, alongside a 43.

Relationship Between Climate Change and Marmot Plague of Plague Focus - the Altun Mountains of the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau, China, 2000-2022.

Introduction: Plague is a zoonotic disease that occurs naturally in specific geographic areas. Climate change can influence the populations of the plague host or vector, leading to variations in the occurrence and epidemiology of plague in animals.

Methods: In this study, we collected meteorological and plague epidemiological data from the plague focus in the Altun Mountains of the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau.

Pasteurella multocida strains of a novel capsular serotype and lethal to Marmota himalayana on Qinghai-Tibet plateau in China.

Pasteurella multocida is a zoonotic pathogen causing serious diseases in humans and animals. Here, we report P. multocida from wildlife on China's Qinghai-Tibet plateau with a novel capsular serotype, forming a single branch on the core-genome phylogenetic tree: four strains isolated from dead Himalayan marmot (Marmota himalayana) and one genome assembled from metagenomic sequencing of a dead Woolly hare (Lepus oiostolus).

Identification of Novel Sequence Type 22 in Jiuquan City, Gansu Province, China, 2021-2022.

What Is Already Known About This Topic?: The prevalence of rodent-adapted species has been increasing significantly. However, the specific species carried by (), a large rodent species, and the potential risk it poses to human populations remain unknown.

What Is Added By This Report?: (), associated with human endocarditis, was initially identified in , exhibiting a detection rate of approximately one-third and demonstrating a predilection for the heart and lungs.

A modified molecular beacons-based multiplex real-time PCR assay for simultaneous detection of eight foodborne pathogens in a single reaction and its application.

Foodborne disease outbreaks are often caused by one of the major pathogens. Early identification of the causal pathogen is crucial for disease control and prevention. We describe a real-time polymerase chain reaction (rtPCR) assay that can identify, in a single reaction, up to eight common foodborne bacterial pathogens, including Salmonella enterica subsp.
