Chytridiomycosis in Amphibians

Journal of Exotic Pet Medicine, 2015
Abstract Chytridiomycosis is an emerging fungal disease caused by members of the genus Batrachochytrium. Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis has been implicated in declines in wild amphibian populations worldwide. The pathogen is able to infect various groups of amphibians, including anurans, urodeles, and caecilians. B.

Chytridiomycosis

2018
The amphibian fungal disease chytridiomycosis is considered one of the greatest threats to biodiversity. This lethal skin disease is caused by chytridiomycete fungi belonging to the genus Batrachochytrium. Although sudden amphibian population declines had occurred since the 1970s in the Americas and Australia, mass mortalities were not observed until ...

Hotspot shelters stimulate frog resistance to chytridiomycosis

Nature
Many threats to biodiversity cannot be eliminated; for example, invasive pathogens may be ubiquitous. Chytridiomycosis is a fungal disease that has spread worldwide, driving at least 90 amphibian species to extinction, and severely affecting hundreds of others1-4. Once the disease spreads to a new environment, it is likely to become a permanent part of

Emergence of amphibian chytridiomycosis in Britain

Veterinary Record, 2005
, can be highly pathogenic,causing up to 90 to 100 per cent mortality in the postmeta-morphic life stages of some amphibian species (Scott 1993,Daszak and others 1999), while other amphibian speciesappear to be resistant to disease when infected with this fun-gus (Daszak and others 2004, Weldon and others 2004).

Pathogenesis, Diagnosis, and Treatment of Amphibian Chytridiomycosis

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Exotic Animal Practice, 2013
Chytridiomycosis, caused by the chytridiomycete fungus, Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis, is an important pathogen of amphibians in captivity and is a major concern for global conservation of amphibians. The organism infects keratinized epithelial cells of amphibian skin and causes disease and mortality by interfering with important skin functions ...

Does Chytridiomycosis Disrupt Amphibian Skin Function?

Copeia, 2010
Chytridiomycosis, a disease caused by the fungus Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd), potentially disrupts osmoregulation or respiration across the skin of amphibians it infects, releases toxins into the host, or both. We investigated whether infection with Bd alters water balance or metabolic rate of the hylid frog Litoria raniformis.
