Published in 2021 at "Ecology and Evolution"

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.6910

Abstract: Abstract Habitat disturbance, a common consequence of anthropogenic land use practices, creates human–animal interfaces where humans, wildlife, and domestic species can interact. These altered habitats can influence host–microbe dynamics, leading to potential downstream effects on… read more here.
