Genetic transformation of the frog-killing chytrid fungus <i>Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis</i>

2023-10-17

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis ( Bd ), a causative agent of chytridiomycosis, is decimating amphibian populations around the world. Bd belongs to the chytrid lineage, a group of early-diverging fungi that are widely used to study fungal evolution. Like all chytrids, Bd develops from a motile form into a sessile, growth form, a transition that involves drastic changes in its cytoskeletal archi...
