Infectious Diseases and Mycology
Infectious Diseases and Mycology is a research topic within Small Animals. Science Explorer counts 20k research works in it since 1950. 11.8% of them reached the world's top 10% most cited for their field and year.
This cluster of papers explores emerging animal pathogens and diseases, including retroviruses like Jaagsiekte sheep retrovirus, oomycetes such as Pythium insidiosum, zygomycosis, basidiobolomycosis, and the pathogen Rhinosporidium. It also delves into immunotherapy for these infections and the molecular biology of these pathogens. The papers cover a wide range of topics related to the pathology, diagnosis, treatment, and epidemiology of these emerging animal diseases.

How concentrated that is
The same countries as shares of everything the list above accounts for. A node where two countries do two thirds of the work and one spread evenly across twelve read alike as a ranking and not at all alike here.
