    Snippet: diversity (1) (2) (3) . Microbes are dependent on their hosts, and hot spots of host biodiversity may also be rich in pathogen diversity. Intensive land use changes in West African rainforests began in the 1960s by industrial deforestation, leaving only remnants of the equatorial forest belt (4) (5) (6) .

    Document: diversity (1) (2) (3) . Microbes are dependent on their hosts, and hot spots of host biodiversity may also be rich in pathogen diversity. Intensive land use changes in West African rainforests began in the 1960s by industrial deforestation, leaving only remnants of the equatorial forest belt (4) (5) (6) . Patches of forest are typically surrounded by agricultural land and human settlements. Logging is linked to a profound decline in biodiversity (4, (7) (8) (9) (10) (11) (12) . Declines in biodiversity are associated with an increased risk of infectious disease emergence in humans and domestic animals (reviewed in reference 13) . Nevertheless, links between anthropogenic habitat modification and virus emergence remain to be confirmed (13, 14) .
