Inhibition of Fungal Pathogens across Genotypes and Temperatures by Amphibian Skin Bacteria

open access: yesFrontiers 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 ...
