Overview

Review explores impact of wildlife trade on disease and genetics, highlighting necessary interventions.

Key Points

  • This review aims to examine how wildlife trade influences disease susceptibility through genetic factors.
  • Analyzed the relationship between wildlife trade and zoonotic diseases.
  • Reviewed genetic and immunogenetic tools for assessing disease resistance.
  • Highlighted the need for research in wildlife markets and genetic diversity.
  • Wildlife trade contributes to loss of genetic diversity and heightened disease vulnerability.
  • Advanced genomic tools can identify immune gene variations linked to disease susceptibility.
  • Pathogen-driven selection is crucial in maintaining immune gene diversity within populations.
