The chytrid fungus Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis(Bd) is an amphibian parasite. The data below show results from an experiment where two frog species were exposed to and infected with either a native strain of the chytrid (Bd-Brazil), a global pandemic lineage (Bd-GPL) or a hybrid strain, compared to a control (frogs were not exposed to the chytrid). Based on these data, showing the proportion of frogs surviving across the length of the experiment, which of the following are logical conclusions? 1.0 1.0 0.8 0.8 0.6 0.6 - Bd-GPL 0.4 0.4 Bd-Brazil Hybrid ....

Choose one or more:
O A. Compared to the native chytrid strains (Bd-Brazil), the global pandemic lineage and hybrid strains appear to
have higher infection and mortality rates.
O B. Compared to the native fungal strains (Bd-Brazil), the global pandemic lineage and hybrid strains appear to
have lower mortality rates.
O C. Compared to the global pandemic chytrid lineage (Bd-GPL), the native and hybrid fungal strains appear to
have lower virulence (as determined by infection and mortality rates).
O D. Compared to the native strains of fungus (Bd-Brazil), the global pandemic lineage and hybrid strains appear
to have lower survival rates.
