“…Bufadienolides do not only deter various predators (Hayes et al., 2009; Toledo & Jared, 1995) but may also show antimicrobial, antiprotozoal, and antifungal activity, providing some level of protection against pathogens and parasites, including Bd (Barnhart et al., 2017; Cunha Filho et al., 2005; Rodriguez et al., 2020, 2021; Tempone et al., 2008). Bufadienolide synthesis is a flexible trait, which is influenced by anthropogenic habitat change and pollution (Bókony et al., 2017, 2019), the presence of predators or competitors (Benard & Fordyce, 2003; Bókony et al., 2016, 2018; Hagman et al., 2009; Üveges et al., 2017, 2021), food availability (Üveges et al., 2017), and the age of individuals (Ujszegi et al., 2017, 2021; Üveges et al., 2017). However, little is known about the effects of pathogens on inducible bufadienolide synthesis.…”
