“…They are the disease makers which is mainly due to poor human-animal-environment interactions (https:// www.who.int/zoonoses/en/, Ahamad T., et al [11]. In past; plague, flu, cholera and rabies had scraped and levelled the human population in India, Yasobant et al [11], Sanjay Ku., et al [1].Further the 21 st century viruses like Ebola, MERS, and SARS etc. have endangered the very human existence on earth as a part of 6 th extinction, Mishra S. P. [12].…”

“…India is presently the 3 rd hot-spot country of the globe suffering from COVID-19 due to emergence of virulent zoonotic disease (ZD. About58% out of 1407 human pathogens (bacterial and Rickettsia, fungi, viruses helminths, and protozoa comprising of 538, 317, 208, 287, and 57 numbers respectively) are Zoonotic and 22 numbers were deadly causing 2.2 million mortalities annually, Sehegal S., [13], Dhiman et al [14], Chinchwadkar P., et al [15] as per, RCZI report, Swain S K., et al [1]. Anthropogenic causes for spread of ZD's through domestic animals are due to contact, minimum social distancing, food, unhygienic dwelling, ignorance, poverty, occupation and poor lifestyle.…”

“…The year 2018; India was under threat due to zoonotic diseases (ZD) like Influenza H1N1 (14971 hosts), rabies (110 cases), Kala-azar (4380 cases) chikungunya (57813 cases), Japanese Encephalitis (JE) (1674 cases), and Dengue (192 cases). Plague had caused death toll of 12 millions, H1N1 10-21 mn and rabies 20k people in past when the India's population was resurfaced during early 19th&20th century (Swain S K et al [1] from CBHI; MOH&FW GOI). Diseases like plague, Nipah, KFD (Kyasanur Forest Disease), Malaria etc.…”

“…The zoonotic ailments were virulent from Bubonic plague, Flue H1N1, Cholera, Small pox, TB (Tuberculosis), malaria and AIDS in India during 19 th and 20 th century. But the viral diseases like Japanese Encephalitis (JE), Ebola, MERS, and SARS have challenged human health and above all the COVID-19 throughout the globe including the country India in early 21 st century (Swain et al [1]). However, the ZD's like Covid-19 has surpassed all the limits covering all over the globe affecting recorded or unrecorded 18+9mn cases/ 693+k deaths throughout the world and 18+mn cases/38+k deaths from India till 3 rd Aug 2020 (World o meter of COVID-19 statistics [64]).…”

COV-19, HIV/AIDS, Flu H1N1 and many other zoonotic diseases are emergent during Anthropocene epoch due to climatic anomalies. Bacteria’s, viruses, pathogens are associated with human cause zoonoses mainly resulting from domestication. Minimum 61% of human pathogens are zoonotic comprising 75% of all emerging apocalyptic pathogens in 21st century. The scope of present study is investigating the domestication in time scale and finding the causes and consequences the virulent invasion of the present 21st century zoonotic diseases due to the climatic, biologic, socio-economic causes and the governing laws during the Anthropocene. The Holocene hominids were strong enough to adapt the harsh, frigid climate to sustain life during extreme conditions. Later the food habits, sedentary life and the changing agro-climate made then incapable to sustain with the bacterial, viral and microbial attacks for lack of immunity and adaptability by invoking domestication. The National Health Profile, India; has reported fall in rate of communicable diseases that has out broken from 61% to 33% from 1990 to 2016 resulting from health education, care and vaccines but the pandemicCOVID-19 has challenged the scenario. Demand of one health practices and stringent laws is essential to overcome the risk. Present pandemic COVID-19 has forced the globe away for sustenance of life and livelihood for want of vaccine, it is essential to practice five ‘T’ (Test, Trace, treat, train and trade) to restore the normal life.

“…In these endemic regions, anthrax has also been reported in the livestock handlers [ 13 ]. To address the same concern, the National Centre for Disease Control (NCDC), India have been taking efforts for strengthening surveillance, early diagnosis and, effective timely containment of this zoonotic disease [ 14 ]. In addition, NCDC along with World Health Organisation (WHO) has also developed training programs for veterinary and medical professionals to control the spread of anthrax [ 15 ].…”

Molecular characterization of B. anthracis isolates from the anthrax outbreak among cattle in Karnataka, India

et al. 2020

Background Anthrax, a zoonotic disease is caused by the Gram positive bacterium Bacillus anthracis . During January 2013, an anthrax outbreak among cattle was reported in Gundlupet Taluk, neighboring Bandipur National Park and tiger reserve, India. The present study aims at the molecular identification and characterization of 12 B. anthracis isolates from this outbreak by 16S rRNA gene sequencing, screening B. anthracis specific prophages and chromosomal markers, protective antigen ( pag ) gene and canonical single nucleotide polymorphism (canSNP) analysis to subtype the isolates into one of the twelve globally identified clonal sub-lineages of B. anthracis . Results These isolates had identical 16S rDNA nucleotide sequences with B. anthracis specific dual peaks showing mixed base pair R (G/A) at position 1139 with visual inspection while the automated basecaller software indicated a G. Alternatively the nucleotide A at 1146 position was indicative of the 16S rDNA type 7. Multiple sequence alignment with additional 170 (16S rDNA) sequences of B. cereus sensu lato group from GenBank database revealed 28 new 16S types in addition to eleven 16S types reported earlier. The twelve B. anthracis isolates were found to harbor the four B. anthracis specific prophages (lambdaBa01, lambdaBa02, lambdaBa03, and lambdaBa04) along with its four specific loci markers (dhp 61.183, dhp 77.002, dhp 73.019, and dhp 73.017). The pag gene sequencing identified the isolates as protective antigen (PA) genotype I with phenylalanine-proline-alanine phenotype (FPA phenotype). However, sequence clustering with additional 34 pag sequences from GenBank revealed two additional missense mutations at nucleotide positions 196 bp and 869 bp of the 2294 bp pag sequence among the 5 B. cereus strains with pXO1 like plasmids. The canSNP analysis showed that the isolates belong to A.Br.Aust94 sub-lineage that is distributed geographically in countries of Asia, Africa, Europe and Australia. Conclusions The analysis of 16S rDNA sequences reiterated the earlier findings that visual inspection of electropherogram for position 1139 having nucleotide R could be used for B. anthracis identification and not the consensus sequence from base caller. The canSNP results indicated that the anthrax outbreak among cattle was caused by B. anthracis of A.Br.Aust94 sub-lineage.
