Amphibians are cold-blooded vertebrates with moist, permeable skin, typically hatching as aquatic larvae and transforming into terrestrial adults, often undergoing metamorphosis. Examples include frogs, toads, salamanders, and newts. Amphibians engage in intricate relationships with microbes, profoundly influencing their health and ecology. These interactions occur across various life stages, from tadpole development to adult immunity. Microbes inhabit amphibian skin, providing defense against pathogens, like the deadly chytrid fungus, and aiding in nutrient absorption. Moreover, amphibians are important bioindicators, reflecting the health of their ecosystem. Changes in microbial communities can indicate environmental stress, such as pollution and climate changes. Understanding these dynamics is crucial for conservation efforts aimed at mitigating amphibian declines and preserving biodiversity. Research into amphibian-microbe interactions offers insights into both ecological resilience and the delicate balance of symbiotic relationships in nature. This book consists of contributions made by international experts on amphibian ecology. It provides significant information of this discipline to help develop a good understanding of amphibian-microbe interactions and related fields. This book will serve as a reference to a broad spectrum of readers.
