Disease dynamics vary spatially and temporally in a North American amphibian (2011, background): “, 2007), and Rocky Mountains (Muths et al., 2008) with no reports of chytridiomycosis outbreaks.”
Non-native and native organisms moving into high elevation and high latitude ecosystems in an era of climate change: new challenges for ecology and conservation (2016, methodology): “Some research from high elevation locations indicates that cold environments do not necessarily limit this pathogen (e.g., Knapp et al. 2011), although other studies indicate that cold temperature limits Bd (Muths et al. 2008, Pilliod et al. 2010).”
Global emergence of Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis and amphibian chytridiomycosis in space, time, and host. (2009, background): “In vitro inhibition of Bd by antimicrobial peptides is not hampered by cold temperatures (101, 102) that are experienced by hosts at high-altitude sites where Bd has often caused population declines and extirpations (15, 65, 78).”
