eDNA Increases the Detectability of Ranavirus Infection in an Alpine Amphibian Population

Viruses, 2019
The early detection and identification of pathogenic microorganisms is essential in order to deploy appropriate mitigation measures. Viruses in the Iridoviridae family, such as those in the Ranavirus genus, can infect amphibian species without resulting ...

Diversity-Stability Dynamics of the Amphibian Skin Microbiome and Susceptibility to a Lethal Viral Pathogen

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Variation among animals in their host-associated microbial communities is increasingly recognized as a key determinant of important life history traits including growth, metabolism, and resistance to disease. Quantitative estimates of the factors shaping

Immune Defenses Against Ranavirus Infections

AbstractRanaviruses (RV, family Iridoviridae) infect fish, amphibians, and reptiles, raising considerable ecological and commercial concerns due to the escalating infection prevalence and the resulting die-offs of wild and aquacultural species. Notably, ranaviruses exhibit uncanny capacities to cross host species barriers, likely owing to their potent ...

The Binding, Infection, and Promoted Growth of Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis by the Ranavirus FV3

Viruses
Increasing reports suggest the occurrence of co-infection between Ranaviruses such as Frog Virus 3 (FV3) and the chytrid fungus Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd) in various amphibian species.
