Antifungal isolates database of amphibian skin‐associated bacteria and function against emerging fungal pathogens

2015-02-01

Abstract excerpt

Microbial symbionts of vertebrate skin have an important function in defense of the host against pathogens. In particular, the emerging chytrid fungus Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis , causes widespread disease in amphibians but can be inhibited via secondary metabolites produced by many different skin‐associated bacteria. Similarly, the fungal pathogens of terrestrial salamander eggs Mariannaea elegans and Rhizomu...
