ITS1 copy number varies among Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis strains: implications for qPCR estimates of infection intensity from field-collected amphibian skin swabs. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Genomic studies of the amphibian-killing fungus (Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis, [Bd]) identified three highly divergent genetic lineages, only one of which has a global distribution.

Moving with purpose: kelp zoospore motility governs encounters, settlement, and early recruitment
Frontiers in Marine ScienceKelp forests depend on the successful settlement of microscopic zoospores, the motile dispersal stage of the kelp life cycle. Settlement begins with arrival at a surface and culminates in stable attachment through adhesive contact and curing.

A Myb transcription factor of Phytophthora sojae, regulated by MAP kinase PsSAK1, is required for zoospore development. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 PsSAK1, a mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase from Phytophthora sojae, plays an important role in host infection and zoospore viability. However, the downstream mechanism of PsSAK1 remains unclear.

Enzymes of early-diverging, zoosporic fungi [PDF]
Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2019 The secretome, the complement of extracellular proteins, is a reflection of the interaction of an organism with its host or substrate, thus a determining factor for the organism's fitness and competitiveness. Hence, the secretome impacts speciation and organismal evolution.

Variation in thermal performance of a widespread pathogen, the amphibian chytrid fungus Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Rates of growth and reproduction of the pathogens that cause emerging infectious diseases can be affected by local environmental conditions; these conditions can thus influence the strength and nature of disease outbreaks.

Oikos, EarlyView.Novel parasite introductions are threatening wildlife communities globally. The degree of threat depends on the ecological context, namely host community characteristics and the presence of other parasites. How these two factors interact to shape the outcomes of parasite introductions is not known. We experimentally investigated how infection following

Journal of FungiWhile the rapid rise in bioinformatics has facilitated the identification of the domains and functions of many proteins, some still have no domain annotation or largely uncharacterized functions. However, the biological roles of unknown proteins were not

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Freshwater ecosystems are increasingly impacted by anthropogenic pollutants, including the widely used herbicide metolachlor (MET) and cigarette butt (CB) litter. Parasites represent an additional biotic stressor that can modulate pollutant effects on their hosts.
