Host Species is Linked to Pathogen Genotype for the Amphibian Chytrid Fungus ( <i>Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis</i> )
2021-11-24
Abstract excerpt
Host-pathogen specificity can arise from certain selective environments mediated by both the host and pathogen. Therefore, understanding the degree to which host species identity is correlated with pathogen genotype can help reveal historical host-pathogen dynamics. One animal disease of particular concern is chytridiomycosis, typically caused by the global panzootic lineage of the amphibian chytrid fungus ( Batr...
