Extreme climatic events modulate chytrid infection across the landscape

2024-08-01

Abstract excerpt

The disease chytridiomycosis, caused by Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd), has swept through amphibian communities worldwide. As a fungal pathogen of ectothermic hosts, Bd occurrence is influenced by environmental factors; however, the effect of extreme climatic events on infection dynamics is unclear. We examined the influence of environmental conditions on Bd infection patterns across populations of Fleay's ba...
