RESUMO

There is an increased awareness of the importance of data publication, data sharing, and open science to support research, monitoring and control of vector-borne disease (VBD). Here we describe the efforts of the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF) as well as the World Health Special Programme on Research and Training in Diseases of Poverty (TDR) to promote publication of data related to vectors of diseases. In 2020, a GBIF task group of experts was formed to provide advice and support efforts aimed at enhancing the coverage and accessibility of data on vectors of human diseases within GBIF. Various strategies, such as organizing training courses and publishing data papers, were used to increase this content. This editorial introduces the outcome of a second call for data papers partnered by the TDR, GBIF and GigaScience Press in the journal GigaByte. Biodiversity and infectious diseases are linked in complex ways. These links can involve changes from the microorganism level to that of the habitat, and there are many ways in which these factors interact to affect human health. One way to tackle disease control and possibly elimination, is to provide stakeholders with access to a wide range of data shared under the FAIR principles, so it is possible to support early detection, analyses and evaluation, and to promote policy improvements and/or development.

RESUMO

Two disjunct distributional areas of Crotalus durissus (Neotropical rattlesnake) are in open habitats north and south of the Amazon Basin and are presently separated by humid rainforest habitats. We used ecological niche modeling to identify and investigate potential dispersal pathways for this species between the two areas during the late Pleistocene. Niches estimated for the two populations did not differ significantly. Our analyses indicated two possible, but a single most likely, potential routes of dispersal during the last glacial cycle. These results are important to understanding the history of Amazon Basin humid forest biotas, as they suggest agents of isolation among putative humid forest refugia in the form of dry forest and scrub, and associated biotas.


Actualmente existen dos áreas de distribución disyuntas de la serpiente de cascabel Crotalus durissus, afín a hábitats abiertos, al norte y al sur de la cuenca del Río Amazonas, separadas por selvas húmedas. Usamos técnicas de modelado de nicho ecológico para identificar corredores potenciales de dispersión para esta especie entre las dos áreas en el Pleistoceno tardío. Los nichos estimados para las poblaciones de cada una de las áreas de distribución no presentaron diferencias significativas. Nuestros análisis identificaron un corredor de dispersión más probable para esta especie durante el Último Máximo Glaciar. Estos resultados tienen implicaciones para el entendimiento de la historia de las biotas de las selvas húmedas del Amazonas, ya que sugieren causas de aislamiento entre refugios potenciales de selva húmeda, en la forma de selva seca y matorral.
