      <abstract>Data in this dataset were collected as a part of a surveillance project for reintroduction of a state endangered species in Indiana. This data was collected in the field by state biologists and sent to the USGS National Wildlife Health Center (NWHC) for testing of four amphibian pathogens, Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd), Batrachochytrium salamandrivorans (Bs), Ranavirus, and perkinsea. The dataset includes both the field records of the individual amphibians tested and the results for individuals for all four pathogens.</abstract>
      <purpose>These data were collected as preliminary information on donator and recipient sites for the crawfish frog reintroduction program in the state of Indiana. This data could be included in regional studies of the presence or absence of Bd, Bs, Ranavirus, or Perkinsea.</purpose>

        <procdesc>Field collection of swabs were collected on multiple dates during the fall 2023 and early spring 2024 of over-wintering Ranidae tadpoles in Vanderburgh and Greene counties in Indiana. Individual animals were captured by hand, net, or trap and handled while wearing gloves and using clean plastic bags to collect individuals. All handling was conducted with approved Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee with appropriate location permits. We aimed to capture up to 30 individuals at each site for both fall and spring sampling. In the fall, animals were euthanized and whole bodies sent for necropsy and testing for Bd, Bsal, Ranavirus, and Perkinsea. In the spring, we aimed to collect 2 swabs for Bd and Bsal testing, snout-vent length measurements, and age and sex class estimates. Swabs were chilled immediately and then frozen and sent to the U. S. Geological Survey’s National Wildlife Health Center for molecular testing. 

For Bd and Bs detection, we extracted DNA from swabs as described by Hyatt et al.29 except that 125 μl of PrepMan® Ultra Sample Preparation Reagent (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA) and 100 mg of zirconium/silica beads (Biospec Products, Bartlesville, OK) were used so that the entire swab was immersed. The bead-beating steps were conducted using a FastPrep®-24 homogenizer (MP Biomedicals, Santa Ana, CA). We used a real-time TaqMan polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for detection of Bsal on the extracted DNA as described in Blooi et al. (2013, 2016). We ran reactions on the QuantStudio5 PCR system (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA) using QuantiFast Probe RT-PCR mastermix kit with ROX dye (Qiagen, Valencia, CA) and BSA as per the kit instructions. We used five microliters of the PrepMan® solution containing the extracted DNA as template for the PCR. We included a negative extraction control and a standard curve run in duplicate on each PCR plate. The standard curve consisted of five different concentrations of the target sequence for Bsal inserted into plasmids. The concentrations of the standards occurred at ten-fold dilutions ranging from 110–1,100,000 copies (0.5–5,000 fg DNA) per reaction. The threshold for signal detection was set at 5% of the maximum fluorescence of the standards run for that assay. We considered a detection of Bd and Bsal DNA if a detectable signal existed at 40 or fewer PCR cycles and non-detection in all other cases. We calculated the efficiency of each run using standard curve amplification and repeated PCR plates with an efficiency of less than 90% or greater than 110%.

To test for Ranavirus we used a magnetic bead-based extraction method (Ambion MagMAX™ 1836, Thermo Fisher Scientific, MA, USA) on the KingFisher™ Flex System (Thermo Fisher Scientific), with sample DNA eluted in a volume of 90 μl. Briefly, we prepped tail clips (~0.5 g) in viral transport media at a concentration of 1:10 respectively, centrifuged at 1,500 g for 25 minutes to clarify and pellet organic material. We followed recommended protocol for the MagMAXTM 1836 before proceeding to quanatitative PCR (qPCR). We ran a qPCR assay following Leung et al. (2017) in a duplex assay with Ranavirus DNA and host nuclear gene (EBF3N). For one reaction, there was 10.25 uL of water, 2.5 uL 10x buffer, 0.5 uL dNTP, 1.25 uL each of forward and reverse Ranavirus primers, 0.625 uL of Ranavirus probe, 1.25 uL of EBF3N forward and reverse primers, 0.625 uL of EBF3N probe, and 0.5 uL Qiagen HotStar Taq DNA polymerase (5u/uL) and 5 uL of sample. All dNTPs, primers, and probes are at 10 uM concentration.  The limit of quantification for 1 copy/reaction of Ranavirus and 3 copies/reaction of gDNA was used for diagnostic testing. The qPCR cycling conditions are as follows: 15 minutes at 95C, then 50 cycles of 15 seconds at 95C and 30 seconds at 60C. We included a negative amplification control and a positive amplification standard curve from 1 x 107 to 1 of DNA. If a well did not amplify genomic DNA (gDNA), the ranavirus test was considered invalid. If gDNA amplified, and Ranavirus copy was greater than or equal to 1, the sample is considered positive. Ranavirus copy number less than 1 and greater than 0 is considered equivocal. A negative Ranavirus result was no amplification in the well. 

We followed the methods described in Isidoro-Ayza et al. 2017 to test the livers for Perkinsea
