Chytridiomycosis is an emerging infectious disease of amphibians that affects over 700
species on all continents where amphibians occur. The amphibian–chytridiomycosis system …

The fungal skin disease, chytridiomycosis (caused by Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis and
B. salamandrivorans), has caused amphibian declines and extinctions globally since its …

Climate change might drive species declines by altering species interactions, such as host–
parasite interactions. However, few studies have combined experiments, field data, and …

In aquatic environments, fungal communities remain little studied despite their taxonomic
and functional diversity. To extend the ecological coverage of this group, we conducted an in …

The impacts of pathogen emergence in naïve hosts can be catastrophic, and pathogen
spread now ranks as a major threat to biodiversity. However, pathogen impacts can persist …

Emerging infectious diseases are an increasingly prominent threat to biodiversity. However,
traditional methods in conservation generally have limited efficacy in the face of disease …

Amphibians are a clade of over 8,400 species that provide unique research opportunities
and challenges. With amphibians undergoing severe global declines, we posit that …

Batrachochytrium salamandrivorans (Bsal), one of two fungal pathogens that cause the
deadly amphibian disease chytridiomycosis, is a major impending threat to salamander …

Amphibians are experiencing devastating population declines globally. A major driver is
chytridiomycosis, an emerging infectious disease caused by the fungal pathogens …

Fungal diseases of wildlife typically manifest as superficial skin infections but can have
devastating consequences for host physiology and survival. White-nose syndrome (WNS) is …
