Amphibian Chytrid Prevalence in an Amphibian Community in Arid Australia
EcoHealth, 2013[Extract] The amphibian disease chytridiomycosis, caused by the pathogen Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd), has dramatically affected amphibians, causing population declines in over 200 species worldwide (Fisher et al. 2009). The disease is widespread, driving amphibian declines in North America (Muths et al. 2003; Briggs et al.

Neuropeptides in the Amphibian Brain
1992Publisher Summary This chapter focuses on neuropeptides in the amphibian brain emphasizing neuroendocrine relations. Neuropeptides are synthesized as multiple molecular variants, and they may play different roles in various organisms. An analysis of the distribution of neuropeptides in vertebrates and their phenotypic plasticity, especially during ...

Hybridizing tree frogs are among the creatures highlighted in this short chapter. The genetic findings on a hybrid population of tree frogs also provided the primary motivation for a collaborative development and deployment of a novel theory of cytonuclear disequilibria that applies to population-level associations between nuclear and cytoplasmic ...

Publisher Summary This chapter focuses on the anatomy, physiology, and medicine of amphibians. Amphibian body plans are consistent with those of other vertebrates. However, as with any exotic animal species, knowledge regarding the nuances of species variation for some anatomical and physiological traits can be helpful when developing a diagnostic or ...
