Genetic diversity and population structure of the fungus Pseudogymnoascus destructans, the causative agent of white-nose disease: From large scale differentiation to locally homogeneous populations and genetically diverse infections in bats

2023-08-01

Abstract excerpt

White-nose disease (WND), caused by the psychrophilic fungus Pseudogymnoascus destructans , represents one of the greatest threats for North-American hibernating bats. Research on molecular data has significantly advanced our knowledge on various aspects of the disease, yet more studies are needed regarding patterns of P. destructans genetic diversity distribution. In the present study, we investigate three site...
