Comparative pathology and ecological implications of two myxosporean parasites in native Australian frogs and the invasive cane toad.
Myxosporean parasites Cystodiscus axonis and C. australis are pathogens of native and exotic Australian frog species. The pathology and ecological outcomes of infection with these parasites were investigated in this study. Gliosis was correlated to Cystodiscus axonis plasmodia in the brains of (9/60...
