Abstract
Migratory birds might be involved in dispersal of microorganisms as their biological or mechanical carriers, or carriers of infected hematophagous ectoparasites (ixodid ticks). Many microorganisms pathogenic to homeothermic vertebrates including humans have been associated with migrating birds, e.g. some arboviruses (Eastern and Western equine encephalomyelitis and Sindbis alphaviruses, West Nile and St.Louis encephalitis flaviviruses), influenza A virus, Newcastle disease virus, duck plague herpesvirus, Chlamydophila psittaci, Anaplasma phagocytophilum, Borrelia burgdorferi s.l., Campylobacter jejuni, Salmonella enterica, Pasteurella multocida, Mycobacterium avium, Candida spp., and avian hematozoans. The efficiency of dispersal of pathogenic microorganisms depends on a wide variety of biotic and abiotic factors affecting the survival of the agent in, or disappearance from, a habitat or ecosystem in a new geographic area.
