Abstract:The field of ecological immunology, or ecoimmunology, has provided valuable insights on the immune responses of diverse host organisms threatened by infectious diseases in many different environments. One infectious disease that has been particularly notable for its impacts on host populations is amphibian chytridiomycosis, which has been linked with amphibian declines around the world. Amphibian immune responses to the pathogen that causes chytridiomycosis (Batrachochytriym dendrobatidis) are not well underst… Show more
