      Background: In an era of unprecedented socio-ecological changes, managing wildlife health demands high-quality data collection and the engagement of local communities. Blastocerus dichotomus, the largest South American ...
    • Evidence of Ehrlichia chaffeensis in Argentina through molecular detection in marsh deer (Blastocerus dichotomus) 

      Guillemi, Eliana Carolina; Orozco, Maria Marcela; Argibay, Hernán Darío; Farber, Marisa Diana (Elsevier, 2019-04)
      Vector-borne pathogens are responsible for serious emerging diseases and have been widely described in wildlife. Ehrlichia chaffeensis causes the zoonotic “monocytic ehrlichiosis” in humans, is transmitted by the tick ...
    • First characterization of a canine parvovirus causing fatal disease in coatis (Nasua nasua) 

      Bucafusco, Danilo; Argibay, Hernán Darío; Diaz, Leandro; Vega, Celina Guadalupe; Minatel, Leonardo; Postma, Gabriela C.; Rinas, Miguel; Bratanich, Ana Cristi (Springer, 2019-12)
      A canine parvovirus (CPV)-like virus was detected by PCR and isolated from dead coatis in Argentina. Analysis of the full-length genome sequence revealed that it resembled CPV-but also contained a mutation in the VP2 protein ...
