Skin microbiota differs drastically between co-occurring frogs and newts [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2017
Diverse microbial assemblages inhabit amphibian skin and are known to differ among species; however, few studies have analysed these differences in systems that minimize confounding factors, such as season, location or host ecology.

Contradicting habitat type-extinction risk relationships between living and fossil amphibians [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2017
Trait analysis has become a crucial tool for assessing the extinction risk of species. While some extinction risk-trait relationships have been often identical between different living taxa, a temporal comparison of fossil taxa with related current taxa ...

Potential change in the distribution of an abundant and wide-ranging forest salamander in a context of climate change

open access: yesFrontiers of Biogeography, 2018
Climate change already affects species in many ecosystems worldwide. Since climate is an important component of a species’ ecological niche, up-to-date information about climatic niches is needed to model future species distributions in a context of ...

Will predicted positive effects of climate change be enough to reverse declines of the regionally Endangered Natterjack toad in Ireland?

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2021
The global amphibian crisis is driven by a range of stressors including disease, habitat loss, and environmental contamination. The role of climate change remains poorly studied and is likely to influence environmental suitability, ranges, reproduction ...

Polyploidy in Amphibia [PDF]

open access: yesCytogenetic and Genome Research, 2015
This review summarizes the current status of the known extant genuine polyploid anuran and urodelan species, as well as spontaneously originated and/or experimentally produced amphibian polyploids. The mechanisms by which polyploids can originate, the meiotic pairing configurations, the diploidization processes operating in polyploid genomes, the ...
