First record of the chytrid fungus in Lithobates catesbeianus from Argentina: exotic species and conservation

Revista Mexicana de Biodiversidad, 2011
Chytridiomycosis, a disease caused by the chytrid fungus Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (B.d.), is recognized as one of the major factors of amphibian decline. Global trade of amphibians has been identified as one of the causes of B.d.

Amphibian chytridiomycosis outbreak dynamics are linked with host skin bacterial community structure

Nature Communications, 2018
Amphibian skin microbe communities have been putatively associated with the severity of chytrid fungal disease. Here, the authors show that different types of disease dynamics (enzootic versus epizootic) are associated with different microbiota in the ...

Cigarette butts enable toxigenic cyanobacteria growth by inhibiting their lethal fungal infections

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety
Cigarette butts (CBs), of which around 4.5 trillion are discarded annually, are one of the most common types of litter worldwide. CBs contain various chemicals, including metals, nicotine, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, which can leach into water ...
