Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Diseases affecting livestock can result in major economic losses, and they are also sources of zoonotic infections in animal handlers and the general public from the consumption of animal food products. On the global scale, the pig, cattle, sheep, poultry, and aquaculture industries experience great losses as a result of microbial infections, and these infections, some of which are zoonotic, also have deleterious effects on wild animal species.
Companion animals exchange components of their microbial flora and their antimicrobial resistance genes with their owners. We live in a One Health age where, in a shrinking world, increasing amounts of contact are occurring between wild animals, livestock, and humans, resulting in the transfer of many pathogens, some of which can have global consequences. This relationship also means that many diseases affecting humans and animals must be tackled on a “One Health” basis.
This Special Issue, titled "State-of-the-Art Veterinary Microbiology in China (2023, 2024)", of Microorganisms is currently accepting manuscripts, namely original research and review articles, covering basic and applied areas of veterinary microbiology, microbial infections, and antimicrobial resistance.
