Evolutionary responses to invasion: cane toad sympatric fish show enhanced avoidance learning. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 The introduced cane toad (Bufo marinus) poses a major threat to biodiversity due to its lifelong toxicity. Several terrestrial native Australian vertebrates are adapting to the cane toad's presence and lab trials have demonstrated that repeated exposure ...

Divergent Selection on Dispersal Targets Chemosensory and Neuronal Genes in Tribolium castaneum. [PDF]
Mol EcolABSTRACT Dispersal is key to the life history, ecology and evolution of many organisms and important in pest invasiveness. However, the genetic architecture underlying variation in dispersal behaviour remains poorly understood outside of a few model species.

Divergence in host–parasite interactions during the cane toad's invasion of Australia
Ecology and Evolution, 2022 Coevolutionary host–parasite “arms races” can be disrupted by new evolutionary forces imposed by biological invasions, affecting both host and parasite densities, as well as their traits.

The ontogeny of sexual dimorphism in cane toads (Rhinella marina) [PDF]
Royal Society Open ScienceDetermining an individual’s sex early in life may clarify fundamental issues such as progeny sex ratios and sex-based divergences in ecology and behaviour prior to maturity and be useful in captive breeding of endangered species or in developing methods ...

INNERVATION OF THE LARGE INTESTINE OF THE TOAD (BUFO MARINUS) [PDF]
British Journal of Pharmacology and Chemotherapy, 1964 The morphology, physiology and pharmacology of the innervation of the toad (Bufo marinus) large intestine have been studied. The large intestine can be divided into the regions colon, rectum and cloaca, on morphological grounds, but acts as a unit in response to nerve stimulation.
