A Simplified, CRISPR-Based Method for the Detection of Batrachochytrium salamandrivorans

EcoHealth
The fungal pathogen Batrachochytrium salamandrivorans (Bsal) is one of two species (the other, B. dendrobatidis/Bd) that cause amphibian chytridiomycosis, an emerging infectious disease that has been indicated in the declines of hundreds of amphibian species worldwide.

ABSENCE OF BATRACHOCHYTRIUM SALAMANDRIVORANS IN A GLOBAL HOTSPOT FOR SALAMANDER BIODIVERSITY

Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 2021
Batrachochytrium salamandrivorans (Bsal) is an emerging fungal pathogen that affects salamander and newt populations in Asia and Europe. In the Western Hemisphere, Bsal represents a major threat to endemic amphibian populations, which have not evolved resistance to infection, and which could experience local extinction events such as those observed in ...

Climate as a gatekeeper: Unexpected absence of Batrachochytrium salamandrivoran in an Asian Chytrid hotspot suggests a narrow climatic niche for Batrachochytrium salamandrivorans

2023
The chytrid fungal pathogens Batrachochytrium salamandrivorans ( Bsal ) and B. dendrobatidis ( Bd ) are driving amphibian extinctions and population declines worldwide.

Environmental temperature and pathogen dose affect histologic lesion count and severity in Notophthalmus viridescens infected with Batrachochytrium salamandrivorans

Frontiers in Amphibian and Reptile Science
Batrachochytrium salamandrivorans (Bsal) was discovered a decade ago in Europe, where it is emerging and decimating salamander populations. North America, a global hotspot for salamander biodiversity, faces risk of Bsal introduction through trade or ...

Retrospective Analysis of Parasites in Wild-Caught Eastern Newts (Notophthalmus viridescens) Experimentally Exposed to Batrachochytrium salamandrivorans.

Journal of Wildlife Diseases
Amphibians are experiencing extinction rates over 200 times the background extinction rate. One emerging infectious disease contributing to amphibian declines is caused by the fungal pathogen Batrachochytrium salamandrivorans (Bsal), which has caused ...

OCCURRENCE OF PATHOGENIC CHYTRID FUNGI BATRACHOCHYTRIUM SALAMANDRIVORANS AND BATRACHOCHYTRIUM DENDROBATIDIS IN THE HONG KONG NEWT (PARAMESOTRITON HONGKONGENSIS) AND OTHER WILD AND IMPORTED AMPHIBIANS IN A SUBTROPICAL ASIAN REGION

Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 2023
: One of the major threats for the massive loss in global amphibian diversity is chytridiomycosis, caused by chytrid fungi Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd) and B. salamandrivorans (Bsal).
