I'm working on a disease causing fungus which only infects amphibians and I would like know which genes from this fungus are responsible for disease. So to do this, how can I proceed? Any method or protocol to find out these genes?
Interesting subject! Which species of amphibians affected by fungus are in Your attention?

Good paper to read on the topic. They used random transposon mutagenesis. I study amphibian disease and would love to hear what you find!
Maybe start with this paper
