Influence of age and body condition on astrovirus infection of bats in Singapore: An evolutionary and epidemiological analysis
Bats are unique mammals that are reservoirs of high levels of virus diversity. Although several of these viruses are zoonotic, the majority are not. Astroviruses, transmitted fecal-orally, are commonly detected in a wide diversity of bat species, are prevalent at high rates and are not thought to di...
