Diversity Predicts Ability of Bacterial Consortia to Mitigate a Lethal Wildlife Pathogen

2017-04-25

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Symbiotic bacterial communities can protect their hosts from infection by pathogens. Treatment of wild individuals with protective bacteria isolated from hosts can combat the spread of emerging infectious diseases, but it is unclear whether the degree of bacterially-mediated host protection is uniform across multiple isolates of globally-distributed pathogens. Here we use the lethal amphibian fu...
