Animal-associated microbiomes are integral to host health, yet key biotic and abiotic factors that shape host-associated microbial communities at the global scale remain poorly understood. We investigated global patterns ...
Composition of symbiotic bacteria predicts survival in Panamanian golden frogs infected with a lethal fungus

Becker, Matthew H.; Walke, Jenifer B.; Cikanek, Shawna; Savage, Anna E.; Mattheus, Nichole; Santiago, Celina N.; Minbiole, Kevin P. C.; Harris, Reid N.; Belden, Lisa K.; Gratwicke, Brian (2015)

Symbiotic microbes can dramatically impact host health and fitness, and recent research in a diversity of systems suggests that different symbiont community structures may result in distinct outcomes for the host. In ...
The effect of captivity on the cutaneous bacterial community of the critically endangered Panamanian golden frog (Atelopus zeteki)

Becker, Matthew H.; Richards-Zawacki, Corinne; Gratwicke, Brian; Belden, Lisa K. (2014)

For many threatened vertebrates, captivity may be the only option for species survival. Maintaining species in captivity prior to reintroduction presents many challenges, including the need to preserve genetic diversity ...
An experimental test of disease resistance function in the skin-associated bacterial communities of three tropical amphibian species

Variation in the structure of host-associated microbial communities has been correlated with the occurrence and severity of disease in diverse host taxa, suggesting a key role of the microbiome in pathogen defense. However, ...
Integrating the role of antifungal bacteria into skin symbiotic communities of three Neotropical frog species

Rebollar, Eria A.; Bridges, Tiffany; Hughey, Myra C.; Medina, Daniel; Belden, Lisa K.; Harris, Reid N. (2019)

Chytridiomycosis, caused by the pathogen Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd), has led to population declines and extinctions of frog species around the world. While it is known that symbiotic skin bacteria can play a ...
