Currently, specific animal species play an important role as reservoirs for particular Leptospira serovars, although recent investigations have highlighted new host-pathogen interactions involved in Leptospira epidemiology. Furthermore, the constant modification of ecosystems and wildlife habitats and the constantly increasing number of animal species moving towards urban or peri-urban areas are increasing the possibility of direct or indirect contact between wildlife and domestic animals; furthermore, the constant modification of animal leptospirosis also causes problems for human health. The studies published in this book have evidenced and confirmed the hidden role of a large variety of animal species, domestic and wild, in leptospirosis epidemiology. They highlighted the necessity for continuous monitoring and large-scale surveillance studies to better understand this neglected and re-emerging zoonosis.Biology, life sciencesbicsscResearch & information: generalbicsscabortionAfrican green monkeyAfrican green monkeysAustralisbovinecanine leptospirosisCaribbeancattleChlorocebus sabeusclimate changedogdogsepidemiologygenotypingIcterohaemorrhagiaeinfectious diseaseintermediate LeptospiraLeptospiraLeptospira faineiLeptospira spp.leptospirosisLeptospirosislfb1-phylogenyMATMaxEntMLSTmulti-locus sequence typingmultilocus sequence typingmultilocus sequence typing (MLST)multiple loci variable-number tandem repeat analysisnew Pomona serovarsnon-maintenance serovarspathologyPCRpigreal-time PCRrenal lesionsRepublic of Sakha (Yakutia)risk mapSus scrofavaccineVNTRwild boarwildlifezoonosisBiology, life sciencesResearch & information: generalCilia Giovanniedt1278718Bertelloni FabrizioedtFratini FilippoedtCilia GiovanniothBertelloni FabrizioothFratini FilippoothBOOK9910557294703321Leptospira infections in Domestic and Wild Animal3030247UNINA
