Genetic potential for disease resistance in a critically endangered frog decimated by chytridiomycosis

2018-01-18

Abstract excerpt

Southern corroboree frogs ( Pseudophryne corroboree ) have been driven to functional extinction in the wild after the emergence of the amphibian fungal pathogen Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis ( Bd ) in southeastern Australia in the 1980s. This species is currently maintained in a captive assurance colony and is managed to preserve the genetic diversity of the founding populations. However, it is unlikely that s...
