First line of defence: the role of sloughing in the regulation of cutaneous microbes in frogs
Amphibian populations worldwide are currently experiencing unprecedented declines due to the combined effects of emerging infectious disease and climate change. The skin is the first line of defence in preventing establishment of pathogens and associated infections. Although amphibians undergo regul...
