Gastrointestinal symbiont communities of great apes and other non-human primates: bioindicators for tropical ecosystem health and their impact on apes’ health
REFNo: HS2416ES
The overall goal is to study gastrointestinal symbiotic communities of African great apes and other non-human primates across Albertine Rift. We will explore relationships between the endosymbionts and the host organism as well as the relationships within the ecosystem. For the helminths, the impact on the host as well as epidemiology will be studied at the wildlife - domestic animals - human interface. Specifically:
Identification of parasite spectrum and infection burden in BINP great apes across the park and detection of possible reservoirs of zoonotic parasites at the BINP wildlife – domestic animal – human interface by screening selected animal hosts.
Evaluation of the role of strongylid nematodes in clinically ill great apes and investigation of the forces driving the zoonotic parasite infections by analyzing the environmental, host, and anthropogenic factors.
Characterizing the relationships within the endosymbiont communities, between the endosymbiont communities and the habitat, the relationships between the anthropogenic disturbance of ape habitats and endosymbiont communities and evaluation of the endosymbiont interspecies transmission.
Analysing the gut metabolite composition in non-human primates to detect molecular phenotypic difference between clinically ill animals and healthy individuals.
To increase the capacity of disease surveillance system in the area and to decrease the risk of parasite transmission between humans, domestic animals and wildlife, increasing the awareness of pathogen transmission in the local community.
