A central role for the fungal quorum sensing molecule tryptophol during the early stages of a Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis infection? Ghent University
Chytridiomycosis is a fungal skin disease that causes declines and extinctions in amphibians on a
global scale. B. dendrobatidis is one of the infectious agents and although the negative impact of
this pathogen on global diversity has been widely documented, the fundamentals of the hostpathogen
interactions are still underexplored. The early interactions of B. dendrobatidis are
described as attachment to (adhesion) and ...
