Discovery of an endogenous DNA virus in the amphibian killing fungus and its association with pathogen genotype and virulence
2023-03-17
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Summary</h4> The Global Panzootic Lineage (GPL) of the pathogenic fungus Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis ( Bd ) has caused severe amphibian population declines, yet the drivers underlying the high frequency of GPL in regions of amphibian decline are unclear. Using publicly available Bd genome sequences, we identified multiple non-GPL Bd isolates that contain a circular Rep-encoding single stranded DNA (CRE...
