However, we do not expect sex differences in infection probability to influence our results in relation to the dilution effect. Dis. Keesing, F., Holt, R. D. & Ostfeld, R. S. Effects of species diversity on disease risk. Hörnfeldt, B. Ecol. We found evidence for the dilution effect by a competitor (field vole) that conditionally regulated bank vole density indices thereby indirectly reducing PUUV infection and a nest predator (common shrew) that directly influenced bank vole infection probability. We used nest box occupancy data in 1980–2013. Only in core field vole habitats - where field voles are more abundant than in other habitat types70 - bank vole density index declined as that of the field vole increased (Fig. La viscosité réduite η sp /c des solutions diluées de carboxyméthylcelluloses (CMC) a été étudiée en gardant constante la force ionique totale de la solution; la variation de η sp /c avec la concentration est alors souvent linéaire et la constante de Huggins k′ est d'autant plus élevée que la force ionique est faible. Scientific Reports Vector-Borne Zoonotic Dis. Tengmalm’s owl (Aegolius funereus) is a predator specializing on small mammals and field and bank voles constitute approximately 85% of its diet57. State-dependent foraging: lactating voles adjust their foraging behavior according to the presence of a potential nest predator and season. Dilution. collected the data.

But we found no evidence for dilution through “encounter reduction” (Table S1, models 1 and 2). Bank voles weighing <14.4 g may carry maternal antibodies41,84 and were excluded (n = 866) from further analyses since their sero-positivity may not reflect genuine infection. Within a 100 ×100 km area, trapping of small mammals takes place twice a year in 58 systematically placed 1-ha plots of at least 2.5 km inter-distance. The common shrew (Sorex araneus) is a competitor and nest predator of bank voles54. As a response to risk, bank voles may avoid common shrews and increase time spent protecting nestlings.

In addition, the field vole affected PUUV prevalence indirectly by suppressing bank vole density index in fall in meadows and clear-cuts. Tersago, K. et al. The common shrew is found in a wide range of habitats55. R. Soc. J. Anim. Anderson, R. M. & May, R. M. Population biology of infectious diseases: Part I. For vector-borne pathogens with multiple hosts, complexities may arise if an increase in vector density associated with high species diversity counteracts the dilution effect18. 3eme, 8). Parasitology 139, 847–863 (2012). The negative relationship between field vole and bank vole density indices in meadows and clear-cuts in fall despite the synchronizing forces acting on the different species strengthens the evidence for “susceptible host regulation” hypothesis. Henttonen, H., Kaikusalo, A., Tast, J. For each species, a density index was calculated as number of individuals per 100 trap nights. To confirm that bank voles have increased in proportion relative to other small mammals, we calculated the percentage of bank voles relative to total number of small mammals (% bank voles) in spring and fall. Rev. 77). Olsson, G. E., Hjertqvist, M., Lundkvist, Å. Chimie TP : Comment préparer une solution normale diluée - Duration: 5:49. proportion of infected bank voles in a population, has often been found to be density-dependent, e.g.31,40,41, so reduction in host density reduces PUUV transmission and prevalence among bank voles. Salkeld, D. J., Padgett, K. A. All models were checked for violations of assumptions and correlation among explanatory variables. Sci. 23, 35–49 (2013). We hypothesize that both field voles and common shrews will dilute PUUV infection in bank voles through changing their movement patterns and reducing contact rates, i.e. Cornulier, T. et al. Also, the simple system with directly transmitted pathogen and few non-host small mammal species enabled us to include density indices of non-host species rather than species richness. Vertical black marks on the x-axis (rug plots) show how predictor values are distributed across predictor range, denser marks indicate a concentration of predictor values.

Owls nest box occupancy (%) decreased in 1980–2013 (Fig. The dilution effect hypothesis suggests that diverse ecological communities limit disease spread via several mechanisms. 1 in ref. pH et effet d'une dilution.

Although areas of owl nest box monitoring and small mammal trapping only partially overlap, we discuss how long-term decline of Tengmalm’s owls may have affected PUUV infection and host density in 2003–2013. The probability of infection in a bank vole decreased with increasing common shrew density index (Figs 2 and 3). To evaluate the validity of the dilution effect (see Fig. Adler, F.

A. Parasitology 140, 1196–1198 (2013). l’inverse. Dis. Tengmalm’s owl reproduction is largely dependent on vole density57 and is reflected in annual variation in box occupancy by breeding owls. The infection data from 1979–1986 covered two vole cycles whereas 2003–2013 infection data covered three cycles. & Jones, J. H. A meta-analysis suggesting that the relationship between biodiversity and risk of zoonotic pathogen transmission is idiosyncratic. Overall PUUV prevalence in spring (47%) was higher than in fall (17%). PUUV prevalence and infected bank vole density index in spring were higher in 2003–2013 compared to 1979–1986 (Fig. We thus did not formally test the relationship between nest box occupancy (%) and PUUV infection in bank voles. PUUV is directly and horizontally transmitted within bank vole populations and viral particles are shed in the saliva, feces and urine30. 14, 537–551 (2014). 5eme, > 5eme, 4a,b). In chemistry and biology, the dilution ratio is the ratio of solute to solvent. R. Soc. The potential of other species to dilute PUUV infection in bank voles is under-explored (but see refs 41 and 42). Community ecology of small mammal populations in Panama following an outbreak of Hantavirus pulmonary syndrome. PUUV prevalence increased with bank vole density index in spring and fall (Figs 3 and 4), likely due to accelerated density-dependent transmission68. 112, 1092–1098 (2004). Dilution is the process of decreasing the concentration of a solute in a solution, usually simply by mixing with more solvent like adding more water to the solution.

Recent studies have shown that the presence of common shrews influences the behavior and home range of lactating female bank voles54,56. 5a). Biol. We included the interaction between habitat on one hand and field vole density indicex on the other to account for differences in interaction outcomes at different forest succession stages (meadows and clear-cuts, young and intermediate-aged forests and old forests). Small mammal data in 1971–2013 was available through the ongoing Swedish National Environmental Monitoring Program for small rodents, initiated in 1971 around Umeå in northern Sweden (64° N, 20° E)27. provided comments on the manuscript. Our study was based on long-term PUUV infection data (2003–2013) in northern Sweden. Also, mean prevalence in spring was 7% higher in 2003–2013 than in 1979–1986. We speculate that space-driven interference competition occurred for a limited time-period after reproduction, outside of which bank vole behavior, encounter rates and PUUV transmission were not sufficiently altered to be reflected in PUUV infection rates. We hence fitted a generalized least square model with a temporal autocorrelation structure (maximum lag = 3 in spring and 2 in fall) to % bank voles over time in 1971–2013. In disease systems where species vary in their susceptibility to infection by a pathogen, higher diversity often results in lower disease risk (reviewed in ref. 6, t-value = −5.4, p < 0.001, dfresidual = 32). Competitive release of bank voles in new habitats may be associated with higher density and PUUV prevalence, especially in places where virus survival outside the host or transmission may be enhanced due to micro-habitat properties41.
