Body size mediates latitudinal population differences in response to <i>Bd</i> infection in two amphibian species

2021-07-18

Abstract excerpt

Populations of the same species may differ in their sensitivity to pathogens but the factors behind this variation are poorly understood. Moreover, infections may cause sub-lethal fitness effects even in species resistant or tolerant to disease. The chytrid fungus Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis ( Bd ), is a generalist pathogen which has caused amphibian population declines worldwide. In many species, Bd infecti...
