Sentenac H, Schmeller DS, Caubet S et al. · The ISME journal · 2024-01 · open access
Introduction Emerging infectious diseases threaten human health, food security, and biodiversity. A good understanding of pathogen ecology is thus essential to elucidate the determinants of infection and diseases and provide effective mitigation strategies. However, the impacts of biotic…
