Sexual dimorphism, fresh water dispersal range, and prey items of Marine toads (Rhinella marina) in Lennox Head, Australia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The invasive cane or marine toad (Rhinella marina) has spread across much of Australia since its initial introduction in 1935. Naturally found in Central and South America, R.

Invasive Colonic Entamoebiasis in Wild Cane Toads, Australia [PDF]

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2018
We detected a disease syndrome in free-ranging Australian cane toads involving atypical behavior and emaciation that is associated with a previously undescribed Entamoeba sp. that infiltrates the colonic lining, causing it to slough. The organism may become seasonally pathogenic when toads are under hydric and nutritional stress.

Fungal Pathogen Activity and Stress‐Dependent Responses of Grapevine Wood to Esca and Drought

open access: yesPhysiologia Plantarum, Volume 178, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT Biotic and abiotic stresses alter the physiology of perennial plants, with consequences for fungal endophytes and disease expression. In grapevine, drought inhibits esca disease expression, but the underlying molecular interactions between the plant and fungi are unknown. We combined wood metatranscriptomics, metabolomics, and metabarcoding to

Salmonellas from the cane toad, Bufo marinus [PDF]

open access: yesAustralian Veterinary Journal, 1990
Free-ranging B. marinus from various locations in Queensland, New South Wales and Northern Territory were killed and samples of their large intestinal contents cultured for salmonella. Nine species of Salmonella namely S. aberdeen (2 isolates), S. anatum (3), S. chester (1), S. enteritidis (1), S. hvittingfoss (1), S. lansing (1), S.

Thermal Plasticity is Regulated by a Key MicroRNA During Range Expansion of an Invasive Fruit Fly

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 23, 23 April 2026.
Populations at the invasion front of Bactrocera dorsalis adapt through reduced phenotypic and gene expression plasticity, a phenomenon likely to be driven by genetic assimilation. We identify a key miRNA‐mediated regulatory axis, in which miR‐276b post‐transcriptionally represses thw, a conserved chitin‐binding gene critical to the cold‐tolerance ...

Stemming the tide: progress towards resolving the causes of decline and implementing management responses for the disappearing mammal fauna of northern Australia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Introduction: Recent studies at sites in northern Australia have reported severe and rapid decline of several native mammal species, notwithstanding an environmental context (small human population size, limited habitat loss, substantial reservation ...

The interacting effects of ungulate hoofprints and predatory native ants on metamorph cane toads in tropical Australia.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Many invasive species exploit the disturbed habitats created by human activities. Understanding the effects of habitat disturbance on invasion success, and how disturbance interacts with other factors (such as biotic resistance to the invaders from the ...
