    • Antibiotic resistance genes as landscape anthropization indicators: Using a wild felid as sentinel in Chile 
      Sacristán, Irene; Esperón, Fernando; Acuña, Francisca; Aguilar, Emilio; García, Sebastián; López, María José; Cevidanes, Aitor; Neves, Elena; Cabello, Javier; Hidalgo Hermoso, Ezequiel; Poulin, Elie; Millán, Javier; Napolitano, Constanza (Elsevier, 2020)
      Antimicrobial resistance is a global emerging public health issue whose presence and impact in wildlife are widely unknown. Antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs) are considered environmental contaminants, suitable to ...
    • Domestic dog origin of Carnivore Protoparvovirus 1 infection in a rescued free-ranging guiña (Leopardus ... 
      Ortega, René; Mena Vásquez, Juan; Grecco, Sofía; Pérez, Rubén; Panzera, Yanina; Napolitano, Constanza; Zegpi, Nhur-Aischa; Sandoval, Alberto; Sandoval, Daniel; González Acuña, Daniel; Cofré, Sergio; Neira Ramírez, Víctor; Castillo Aliaga, Cristóbal (Wiley, 2020)
      Carnivore protoparvovirus 1is one of the most important pathogens affecting both wild and domestic carnivores. Here, we reported the genetic characterization of canine parvovirus (CPV-2) strains from a rescued guina ...
    • Ecological and biogeographical inferences on two sympatric and enigmatic Andean cat species using genetic ... 
      Napolitano, Constanza; Bennett, Magdalena; Johnson, Warren E.; O'Brien, Stephen J.; Marquet, Pablo A.; Barría, Iván; Poulin, Elie; Iriarte, Agustín (2008)
      The carnivore community of the altiplano ecosystem of the high Andes, including the Andean mountain cat (Leopardus jacobita) and pampas cat (Leopardus colocolo), is one of the least studied in the world. We determined the ...
    • Epidemiology and molecular characterization of Carnivore protoparvovirus-1 infection in the wild felid ... 
      Sacristán, Irene; Esperón, Fernando; Valera Pérez, Rubén; Acuña, Francisca; Aguilar, Emilio; García, Sebastián; Gatica López, María José; Neves, Elena; Cabello, Javier; Hidalgo Hermoso, Ezequiel; Terio, Karen A.; Muñoz Millán, Javier Andrés; Poulin, Elie; Napolitano, Constanza (Wiley, 2020)
      Landscape anthropization has been identified as one of the main drivers of pathogen emergence worldwide, facilitating pathogen spillover between domestic species and wildlife. The present study investigated Carnivore ...
    • Extreme Competence: Keystone Hosts of Infections 
      Martin, Lynn B.; Addison, Bri Anne; Bean, Andrew G.D.; Buchanan, Katherine L.; Crino, Ondi L.; Eastwood, Justin R.; Flies, Andrew S.; Hamede, Rodrigo; Hill, Geoffrey E.; Klaassen, Marcel; Koch, Rebecca E.; Martens, Johanne M.; Napolitano, Constanza; Narayan, Edward J. (Elsevier Ltd, 2019)
      Individual hosts differ extensively in their competence for parasites, but traditional research has discounted this variation, partly because modeling such heterogeneity is difficult. This discounting has diminished as ...
    • Gastrointestinal and cardiorespiratory endoparasites in the wild felid guigna (Leopardus guigna) in Chile: ... 
      Acuña Olea, Francisca; Sacristán, Irene; Aguilar, Emilio; García, Sebastián; Gatica López, María José; Oyarzún Ruiz, Pablo; Brito, José Luis; Fredes Martínez, Fernando; Napolitano, Constanza (Elsevier, 2020)
      Guignas (Leopardus guigna) are small felids closely associated with native forest habitats. In fragmented landscapes, they use vegetation corridors and forest remnants to move across the landscape. In these contexts, guignas ...
    • Identification of novel feline paramyxoviruses in guignas (Leopardus guigna) from Chile 
      Sieg, Michael; Sacristán, Irene; Busch, Johannes; Terio, Karen A.; Cabello, Javier; Hidalgo-Hermoso, Ezequiel; Millán, Javier; Boettcher, Denny; Heenemann, Kristin; Vahlenkamp, Thomas W.; Napolitano, Constanza (MDPI, 2020)
      The family of paramyxoviruses has received growing attention as several new species have been identified recently, notably two different clusters in domestic cats, designated as feline morbillivirus (FeMV) and feline ...
    • Molecular and serologic survey of pathogens in an endangered andean cat (Leopardus jacobita) of the high ... 
      Napolitano, Constanza; Sacristán, Irene; Beltrán-Saavedra, L. Fabián; Limachi-Quiñajo, Rolando; Poulin, Elie (Wildlife Disease Association, Inc., 2019)
      The Andean cat (Leopardus jacobita) is one of the most threatened and least known wild felids in the world. Using molecular and serologic tests, we screened a free-ranging Andean cat for 17 pathogens of conservation concern. ...
    • Sarcoptic mange: An emerging threat to Chilean wild mammals? 
      Montecino Latorre, Diego; Napolitano, Constanza; Briceño, Cristóbal; Uhart, Marcela M. (Elsevier, 2020)
      Sarcoptic mange has been anecdotally reported in Chilean wildlife during the last decade. Although thisdisease can have devastating outcomes for biodiversity, there is no comprehensive assessment of thispotential threat ...
