This project investigates the impact of hybridization on pathogen resistance in amphibian populations, specifically focusing on yellow-bellied and red-bellied toads. It examines how genetic diversity influences survival against the chytrid fungus and explores the relationship between skin microbiomes and infection stat…
World-wide declines in amphibian populations have led to many local and global extinctions, and are connected to the global spread chytrid fungus (Bd).
Because few animals survive infection, Bd poses a strong selection pressure in infected populations.
Hybrid zones, where two species meet and reproduce, are an ideal setting for research on adaptation, as different combinations of gene variants are tested.
However, two contrasting hypotheses exist on the role of hybridisation in infection resist…
