Newcastle disease virus transmission dynamics in wild peridomestic birds in the United Arab Emirates

Abstract To understand the dynamics of a pathogen in an animal population, one must assess how the infection status of individuals changes over time. With wild animals, this can be very challenging because individuals can be difficult to trap and sample, even more so since they are tested with imper...
