Amphibian skin microbiota exhibits temporal variation in community structure but stability of predicted Bd-inhibitory function

Host-associated microbiomes are increasingly recognized to contribute to host disease resistance; the temporal dynamics of their community structure and function, however, are poorly understood. We investigated the cutaneous bacterial communities of three newt species, Ichthyosaura alpestris, Lissot...
