Abstract

Zoonoses represent a major challenge for many disciplines, including microbiology, epidemiology, veterinary, medicine and ecology. Moreover, they pose severe risks to human health and economy. In this editorial, we invite contributions to a BMC Microbiology collection on 'Zoonoses and emerging pathogens', covering research on the pathogenesis, identification, treatment and control of zoonoses.

Keywords: Bacteria; Emerging pathogens; Fungi; Protozoa; Virulence factors; Virus; Zoonoses.
