Journal ArticleDOI
Spread of Chytridiomycosis Has Caused the Rapid Global Decline and Extinction of Frogs
Lee F. Skerratt,Lee Berger,Richard Speare,Scott D. Cashins,Keith R. McDonald,Andrea D. Phillott,Harry B. Hines,Nicole Kenyon +7 more
TL;DR: It is important for the scientific community and conservation agencies to recognize and manage the threat of chytridiomycosis to remaining species of frogs, especially those that are naive to the pathogen.
Evaluation of the photographic identification method (PIM) as a tool to identify adult Litoria Genimaculata (anura: hylidae)
TL;DR: The accuracy of the photographic identification method (PIM) to marked frogs in the field is compared to evaluate whether PIM can be used to identify adult Greeneyed Tree Frogs, Litoria genimaculata and it is concluded that the PIM needs to be carefully validated before it is applied to a new species.
Hygiene protocol for handling amphibians in field studies

Journal ArticleDOI
Adaptations of skin peptide defences and possible response to the amphibian chytrid fungus in populations of Australian green‐eyed treefrogs, Litoria genimaculata
Douglas C. Woodhams,Nicole Kenyon,Sara C. Bell,Ross A. Alford,Shuo Chen,Dean Billheimer,Yu Shyr,Louise A. Rollins-Smith +7 more
TL;DR: This work examined the population‐level variation in this innate immune defence against chytridiomycosis to understand its relationship with disease dynamics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Immune evasion or avoidance: Fungal skin infection linked to reduced defence peptides in Australian green-eyed treefrogs, Litoria serrata
TL;DR: Immune evasion therefore may contribute to the pathogenesis of chytridiomycosis and a mechanistic understanding of this fungal strategy may lead to improved methods of disease control.
