New climatically specialized lineages of <i>Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis</i> and their sub-lethal effects on amphibians establish the Asiatic origins of the pathogen

2023-01-24

Abstract excerpt

Chytridiomycosis, a highly significant global wildlife disease, has caused unprecedented amphibian population declines and species extinctions worldwide. In contrast, mass die-offs due to chytridiomycosis have not been observed in Asia, which is thought to be the ancestral region of origin and a hyper-diversity hotspot of the known causal pathogens, Batrachochytrium dendrobtidis ( Bd ) and B. salamndrivorans (...
