A general sense of pathogen presence (or absence) can inform management directed at threatened and endangered species, especially in regions where disease is suspected to have caused population declines. In Arizona and Mexico the American bullfrog (Lithobates catesbeianus), Chiricahua leopard frog (L. chiricahuensis) and Sonoran tiger salamander (Ambystoma mavortium stebbinsi) are species of interest for sampling and monitoring for chytrid infections. This work is being done in connection with the Amphibian Research and Monitoring Initiative to survey for the possible presence of the salamander chytrid fungus (Batrachochytrium salamandrivorans)." } ], "funder": { "@type": "Organization", "name": "Southwest Biological Science Center", "url": "https://www.usgs.gov/centers/southwest-biological-science-center" }, "about": [ { "@type": "Thing", "name": "Biology" }, { "@type": "Thing", "name": "Wildlife and Terrestrial Species" }, { "@type": "Thing", "name": "Diseases of Aquatic Organisms" }, { "@type": "Thing", "name": "Fish and Wildlife Disease" }, { "@type": "Thing", "name": "Water" }, { "@type": "Thing", "name": "Information Systems" }, { "@type": "Thing", "name": "Threatened and Endangered Species" }, { "@type": "Thing", "name": "Amphibians" }, { "@type": "Thing", "name": "Terrestrial Ecosystems and Restoration" }, { "@type": "Thing", "name": "Energy" }, { "@type": "Thing", "name": "Aquatic Ecosystems" }, { "@type": "Thing", "name": "Ecosystems" }, { "@type": "Thing", "name": "Disease" }, { "@type": "Thing", "name": "Threats" }, { "@type": "Thing", "name": "Adaptive Management" }, { "@type": "Thing", "name": "Wildlife Disease Surveillance" }, { "@type": "Thing", "name": "Chytrid fungus" }, { "@type": "Thing", "name": "Geology" }, { "@type": "Thing", "name": "amphibian disease" }, { "@type": "Thing", "name": "Science Technology" }, { "@type": "Thing", "name": "Environmental Health" }, { "@type": "Thing", "name": "Fish and Wildlife" }, { "@type": "Thing", "name": "Methods and Analysis" } ]
