Eco-physiological Drivers of Horseshoe Bat Virome Diversity

This research focuses on horseshoe bats as viral reservoirs to address infection dynamics, biogeography, and behavioral effects on viral spread. It emphasizes physiological traits, immune system adaptations, and bat-specific viromes to comprehend their role in disease ecology. Utilizing a systematic review, field sampling in Southeast Asia, and metagenomics, the study aims to uncover insights into viral maintenance and pathogen interactions. Outcomes target pandemic prevention and apply One...
