Chytrid fungus infection in zebrafish demonstrates that the pathogen can parasitize non-amphibian vertebrate hosts
New infections of the amphibian chytrid fungus could arise from other animal reservoirs in the environment. Here, Liewet al. demonstrate that zebrafish can be infected by chytrid similarly to amphibians, expanding our understanding of how this pathogen can parasitize its hosts.
