Inhibition of Fungal Pathogens across Genotypes and Temperatures by Amphibian Skin Bacteria
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017 Symbiotic bacteria may dampen the impacts of infectious diseases on hosts by inhibiting pathogen growth. However, our understanding of the generality of pathogen inhibition by different bacterial taxa across pathogen genotypes and environmental ...

Effect of Batrachochytrium Dendrobatidis on Anura Populations Batrachochytrium
IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2021 Abstract Chytrium (Batrachochytrium Dendrobatidis) is a chytrium fungus that causes amphibian chytriomycosis. They were first discovered in 1998 and have been responsible for a large number of amphibian deaths over the next decade. Chytrid fungus grows on amphibian skin and produces free aquatic spores.

Quantitative measurement of Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis in amphibian skin [PDF]
Diseases of Aquatic Organisms, 2006 The ability to quantify infections provides a tool with which to perform comparative pathological research. The need exists for a simplistic standard method to compare infection levels of Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis, a major cause of global amphibian declines. Through examination of skin sloughs of the Cape river frog Afrana fuscigula, we present an

New records of Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis in Chilean frogs [PDF]
Diseases of Aquatic Organisms, 2011 We used molecular techniques to examine 11 species of frogs in 6 localities in southern Chile to ascertain the incidence of the chytrid fungus Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd). We detected the fungus in 2 localities (Coñaripe and Raúl Marín Balmaceda) in 3 species: Batrachyla leptopus, Pleurodema thaul and Rhinoderma darwinii.

Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis in amphibians from the Po River Delta, Northern Italy
Acta Herpetologica, 2011 Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis is a pathogen infecting amphibians at the global scale and causing their decline, but knowledge of the distribution of this pathogen is far from complete.

Fungal infection, decline and persistence in the only obligate troglodytic Neotropical salamander [PDF]
PeerJ, 2020 The fungal pathogen Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd) is implicated in global mass die-offs and declines in amphibians. In Mesoamerica, the Bd epidemic wave hypothesis is supported by detection of Bd in historic museum specimens collected over the last

Presence of low virulence chytrid fungi could protect European amphibians from more deadly strains
Nature Communications, 2020 The pathogen Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (BD) associated with widespread amphibian declines is present in Europe but has not consistently caused disease-induced declines in that region.
