One part of the APHAEA project consists in testing the proposed harmonized protocols and demonstrating the advantages of harmonization. For this purpose, three host-pathogen combinations have been selected:
Wild boar (Sus scrofa) and Aujeszky's disease virus (Pseudorabies)
Red fox (Vulpes vulpes) and Echinococcus multilocularis (Fox tapeworm)
Common vole (Microtus arvalis) and Francisella tularensis (Tularemia)
