Pathogens What is a pathogen? Bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites Where can pathogens be found? Leading cause of death. Top 10 Worst Diseases 10. The Black Death75 million Deaths 9. Polio10,000 Deaths since 1916 8. Smallpox Native Americans suffer a population drop from 12 Mil. to 235,000 7. Cholera12,000 Deaths since 1991 6. Ebola160,000 Deaths since 2000 5. Malaria2.7 Million Deaths per year-2800 children per day 4. Bubonic Plague250 Million Europeans Dead (1/3 population) 3. Spanish Flu Between 1918-19: 50- 100 Million dead 2. Influenza36,000 Deaths per year 1. AIDS 25 Million since 1981
4
Foreign Animal Disease These diseases are being transmissible to livestock or poultry, and has the potential to cause a significant health or economic impact. Once infection has been introduced, spread can be very rapid between animals and between farms.
5
Avian Influenza
6
Cont… How do this virus affect domestic animal?
7
Allergens What are Allergens? Allergies reflect an overreaction of the immune system which cause no reaction in most individuals. Antibodies Flea allergies
8
Temperature Climate Temperature has potential impacts on plant disease through both the host crop plant and the pathogen. Changes in host plants Plant induced the increasing allergic rhinitis and asthma
9
Environmental Resistance Factors There are environmental limits that affect the number of individuals that can survive and reproduce in a given habitat. Dependent factors Logistic Population growth High and Low population densities
10
Gene-Environment Interaction The phenotype is what you actually see in the animal, and this can be influenced by both environmental and developmental factors. Every disease state (including allergy) and pathogen has its associated harmonic and disharmonic frequencies.
11
Birds effected with Coccidian Coccidiosis is recognized as the parasitic disease that has the greatest economic impact on poultry production.
12
Pathogenic Organisms: conditions in temperature and diet Fungi may exist as either a yeast or a mold and may alternate between these forms, depending on environmental conditions. Molds grow on many surfaces, such as wood, masonry, fabric or skin, and thrive best in warm and moist conditions.
