Amphibian chytrid fungus infection influences calling investment in male brown toadlets

2025-07-28

Abstract excerpt

The sublethal effects of infection and disease on male advertisement behaviour remains poorly understood. The ‘terminal investment hypothesis’ proposes that infected organisms will increase reproductive investment when their future reproductive prospects decline. Evidence to support this hypothesis has come from reports that some anuran amphibians respond to infection with the amphibian chytrid fungus pathogen by...
