Lithobates catesbeianus (American Bullfrog) oocytes: a novel heterologous expression system for aquaporins [PDF]
Biology Open, 2018 Xenopus laevis oocytes are a valuable tool for investigating the function of membrane proteins. However, regulations around the world, specifically in Brazil, render the import of Xenopus laevis frogs impractical, and, in some cases, impossible. Here, as

Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2023 Biological invasions are a major cause of biodiversity and ecosystem services loss. However, information on distribution and impacts is limited for many alien species, restricting the development of local management measures. The aim of this study is: to

Tuberculosis caused by Mycobacterium bovis infection in a captive-bred American bullfrog (Lithobates catesbeiana) [PDF]
BMC Veterinary Research, 2018 Background Tuberculosis is widely known as a progressive disease that affects endothermic animals, leading to death and/or economical losses, while mycobacterial infections in amphibians are commonly due to nontuberculous mycobacteria.

Climate change and American Bullfrog invasion: what could we expect in South America? [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 BACKGROUND: Biological invasion and climate change pose challenges to biodiversity conservation in the 21(st) century. Invasive species modify ecosystem structure and functioning and climatic changes are likely to produce invasive species' range shifts ...

Is hypoxia a stressor to American bullfrog tadpoles? [PDF]
Pesquisa Veterinária Brasileira, 2014 The aim of this study was to evaluate alterations to the physiological profile of cortisol in pro-metamorphose phase tadpoles of Lithobates catesbeianus exposed to hypoxia stressor in a capture experiment and in a crowding experiment.

Frog community responses to recent American bullfrog invasions [PDF]
Current Zoology, 2011 Native species may decline quickly when confronted with an exotic species to which they are not adapted. The extent of decline may depend on the abundance of an invader and the length of time since it first arrived in the community (residence time), and ...

Complete mitochondrial genome of the American bullfrog in Korea, Lithobates catesbeianus (Anura: Ranidae) [PDF]
Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2020 The complete mitochondrial (mt) genome of Lithobates catesbeianus was sequenced and characterized. The circular mt genome was constituted of of 37 genes (13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNAs, and 2 ribosomal RNAs) and a non-coding region (NCR ...
