Response to comment on 'Amphibian fungal panzootic causes catastrophic and ongoing loss of biodiversity' [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Lambert et al. question our retrospective and holistic epidemiological assessment of the role of chytridiomycosis in amphibian declines. Their alternative assessment is narrow and provides an incomplete evaluation of evidence.

The combined effects of temperature and aromatase inhibitor on metamorphosis, growth, locomotion, and sex ratio of tiger frog (Hoplobatrachus rugulosus) tadpoles [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2020
Background The tiger frog (Hoplobatrachus rugulosus) is widely raised by many farms in southern region of China as an economically edible frog. The growth, development, and sexual differentiation of amphibians are influenced by temperature and steroid ...

The complete mitochondrial genome of Hylarana latouchii (Anura: Ranidae) and its phylogenetic analysis

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2021
We reported the complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of broad-folded frog (Hylarana latouchii). This mitogenome is 17,007 bp in size and consists of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNAs, two ribosomal RNAs, and one non-coding sequence (D-loop).

Acoustic divergence in advertisement calls among three sympatric Microhyla species from East China [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2020
Background Species-specific advertisement calls are the main mechanism of transmitting information between individuals in anuran amphibians and are therefore indispensable for anuran survival and reproduction.

Complete mitochondrial genome of the Bingzhi's stout newt (Pachytriton granulosus Chang, 1933) and its phylogenetic placement

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2021
The Bingzhi's stout newt (Pachytriton granulosus Chang, 1933) is distributed in mountainous areas of Zhejiang, China. The first complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of P. granulosus was determined by next-generation sequencing.

Microbial Diversity of the Chinese Tiger Frog (Hoplobatrachus rugulosus) on Healthy versus Ulcerated Skin

open access: yesAnimals, 2022
The Chinese tiger frog (Hoplobatrachus rugulosus) is extensively farmed in southern China. Due to cramped living conditions, skin diseases are prevalent among unhealthy tiger frogs which thereby affects their welfare.
