| effects of amphibian chytrid fungus on individual survival probability in wild boreal toads. | chytridiomycosis is linked to the worldwide decline of amphibians, yet little is known about the demographic effects of the disease. we collected capture-recapture data on three populations of boreal toads (bufo boreas [bufo = anaxyrus]) in the rocky mountains (u.s.a.). two of the populations were infected with chytridiomycosis and one was not. we examined the effect of the presence of amphibian chytrid fungus (batrachochytrium dendrobatidis [bd]; the agent of chytridiomycosis) on survival proba ... | 2010 | 20412086 |
