Introduced wild pigs affect the foraging ecology of a native predator as both prey and scavenger

open access: yesWildlife Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, January 2026.
Introduced species can disrupt trophic interactions by acting as novel predators, prey, or scavengers. Predicting the impacts of these disruptions can be integral to the conservation of native species and the maintenance of ecological function, but is challenging, especially for species involved in multiple trophic interactions.

Characterization of the toll‐like receptor 13 homologs in American bullfrogs, Lithobates catesbeianus, and their involvement in antimicrobial immunity

open access: yesJournal of the World Aquaculture Society
Toll‐like receptors (TLRs) are an important family of pattern‐recognition receptors that recognize a series of pathogen‐associated molecular patterns to trigger the host immune response.

Characterization of a bacteriocin produced by enterococcus gallinarum CRL 1826 Isolated from captive bullfrog: evaluation of its mode of action against Listeria monocytogenes and gram-negatives [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Enterococcus gallinarum CRL 1826 isolated from an American bullfrog (Lithobates catesbeianus) skin inhibits the growth of Citrobacter freundii, Pseudomonas aeruginosa (bullfrog pathogens) and Listeria monocytogenes by a synergistic effect between organic

Tuning in the bullfrog ear

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 1988
When electrical resonances were observed in acoustic sensory cells of lower vertebrates, the hearing research community was presented with the exciting possibility that tuning in the ears of those animals might be explained directly in terms of familiar molecular devices.

Little Overlap in Symbiotic Bacteria of Coquí Frogs in Hawaii and Puerto Rico

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 58, Issue 1, January 2026.
Amphibians can have important interactions with their skin bacteria that influence host health. Coquí frogs from Puerto Rico have successfully invaded many locations outside their native range, including Hawaii. Minimal overlap of skin bacterial community diversity and core members on frogs in Puerto Rico and Hawaii suggests little, if any, impact of ...

Integrating refugia modeling and decision science to support climate‐adaptive conservation in the Sierra Nevada

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract To reduce detrimental impacts of anthropogenic change, natural resource managers often look for place‐based solutions to minimize biodiversity loss. Climate‐change refugia, areas buffered from contemporary climate change, can enable the persistence of valued natural resources and prolong the benefits of conservation action.

DNA barcoding elucidates the new altitude record and range-extension of lesser-known bullfrog (Hoplobatrachus litoralis) in northeast India

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2020
The molecular information of lesser-known bullfrog, Hoplobatrachus litoralis is restricted from Bangladesh (type locality) and Myanmar. The morphological observation further evidenced the range-extension of this species from India and Myanmar.
