Temperature-Dependent Effects of Cutaneous Bacteria on a Frog’s Tolerance of Fungal Infection
Defense against pathogens is one of many benefits that bacteria provide to animal hosts. A clearer understanding of how changes in the environment affect the interactions between animals and their microbial benefactors is needed in order to predict the impact and dynamics of emerging animal diseases...
