Genomic innovations linked to infection strategies across emerging pathogenic chytrid fungi

Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis and B. salamandrivoransare both important pathogens of amphibians, but they differ in their host ranges, infection strategies, and host immune responses. Here, Farrer and colleagues compare their genomes and transcriptomes to identify the genetic basis of these differe...
