History and recent progress on chytridiomycosis in amphibians
Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd) emerged in the 1970s in Australia and the Americas,
causing rapid and catastrophic declines and extinctions of naïve amphibian populations as it …

Amphibian fungal panzootic causes catastrophic and ongoing loss of biodiversity
Anthropogenic trade and development have broken down dispersal barriers, facilitating the
spread of diseases that threaten Earth's biodiversity. We present a global, quantitative …

Mechanisms underlying host persistence following amphibian disease emergence determine appropriate management strategies
Emerging infectious diseases have caused many species declines, changes in communities
and even extinctions. There are also many species that persist following devastating …

Refugia and connectivity sustain amphibian metapopulations afflicted by disease
Metapopulation persistence in fragmented landscapes depends on habitat patches that can
support resilient local populations and sufficient connectivity between patches. Yet …

[HTML][HTML] Glutathione is required for growth and cadmium tolerance in the amphibian chytrid fungus, Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis
Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd) is a lethal amphibian pathogen, partly due to its ability
