The first section introduces both the role of biological community interactions and the impact of biodiversity on infectious disease. In turn, the second section considers those diseases directly affecting humans, with a focus on waterborne and foodborne illnesses, while also examining the critical aspect of microbial biofilms. Lastly, the third section presents the ecology of infectious diseases from the perspective of their impact on mammalian livestock and wildlife as well as on humans. ..Given its | 出版日期 | Book 2018 | 关键词 | Bacterial foodborne diseases; Disease ecology; Opportunistic pathogens; Rodent-borne zoonotic viruses; V | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-92373-4 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-030-06419-8 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-92373-4Series ISSN 2366-3324 Series E-ISSN 2366-3332 | issn_series | 2366-3324 | copyright | Springer International Publishing AG, part of Springer Nature 2018 |
