An imputed ancestral reference genome for the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex better captures structural genomic diversity for reference-based alignment workflows

L. B. Harrison, V. Kapur, M. A. Behr

The paper introduces an imputed ancestral reference genome (MTBC0) for the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex that improves read mapping and SNP calling compared to existing references.

Multiple spillovers and onward transmission of SARS-Cov-2 in free-living and captive White-tailed deer

S. V. Kuchipudi, M. Surendran-Nair, R. M. Ruden, M. Yon, R. H. Nissly, R. K. Nelli, L. Li, B. M. Jayarao, K. Vandegrift, C. D. Maranas, N. Levine, K. Willgert, A. J. K. Conlan, R. J. Olsen, J. Davis, , V. Kapur

SARS-CoV-2 was detected in one-third of sampled white-tailed deer in Iowa between September 2020 and January of 2021 that likely resulted from multiple human-to-deer spillover and deer-to-deer transmission events.

Relationship between Anti-Spike Protein Antibody Titers and SARS-CoV-2 In Vitro Virus Neutralization in Convalescent Plasma

E. Salazar, S. V. Kuchipudi, P. A. Christensen, T. N. Eagar, X. Yi, P. Zhao, Z. Jin, S. W. Long, R. J. Olsen, J. Chen, B. Castillo, C. Leveque, D. M. Towers, J. Lavinder, J. D. Gollihar, , J. M. Musser

This study finds a strong correlation between anti-RBD and anti-ECD IgG titers and in vitro virus neutralization titers in convalescent plasma, suggesting these titers can serve as surrogates for neutralizing activity.

Identifying age cohorts responsible for Peste des petits ruminants virus transmission among sheep, goats, and cattle in northern Tanzania

C. M. Herzog, W. A. de Glanville, B. J. Willett, I. M. Cattadori, V. Kapur, P. J. Hudson, J. Buza, E. S. Swai, S. Cleaveland, O. N. Bjornstad

This study estimates age-specific force of infection for Peste des petits ruminants virus in Tanzanian livestock using seroprevalence data, finding weak age heterogeneity and suggesting management systems, not age, should guide control efforts.
