Linking social and pathogen transmission networks using microbial genetics in giraffe (Giraffa cameJopardalis)
Atwill, Edward; Isabel, Lynne A.; McCowan, Brenda; VanderWaal, Kimberly L. (British Ecological Society, 2013)Although network analysis has drawn considerable attention as a promising tool for disease ecology, empirical research has been hindered by limitations in detecting the occurrence of pathogen transmission (who transmitted ... -
Multilevel social organization and space use in reticulated giraffe (Giraffa Camelopardalis)
Isabel, Lynne A.; McCowan, Brenda; VanderWaal, Kimberly (2014)It is increasingly recognized that association patterns of most gregarious animals are nonrandom. However, nonrandom patterns can emerge in any population that exhibits spatial structure, even if individuals associate ... -
Quantifying microbe transmission networks for wild and domestic ungulates in Kenya
