Significant reductions of host abundance weakly impact infection intensity of Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis.
Infectious diseases are considered major threats to biodiversity, however strategies to mitigate their impacts in the natural world are scarce and largely unsuccessful. Chytridiomycosis is responsible for the decline of hundreds of amphibian species worldwide, but an effective disease management str...
