Environment predicts Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis lineage distribution and zones of recombination in South Africa

Abstract The amphibian‐infecting chytrid fungus, Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd), is widespread throughout Africa and is linked to declines of populations and species across the continent. While it is well established that the lineage of Bd encodes traits which determine disease severity, knowle...
