Pan-European database for pathogenic microbial taxa in birds and bats

The spatially extensive multidimensional database of the prevalence of pathogenic microbial taxa for humans and wildlife in birds and bats was compiled by systematically reviewing publications for 121 pathogenic taxa. It covered pathogenic taxa mostly at the genus level (species level for most of the viruses), including sampling from ~450,000 host individuals of 376 bird species and 39 bat species.
