Resource Availability Overrides Predator Presence in Mosquito Oviposition Habitat Selection

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 5, Page 424-435, May 2026.
Gravid Culex quinquefasciatus balance predation risk against resource availability when selecting oviposition sites. In outdoor mesocosms, we factorially manipulated sugarcane jaggery (resource) and notonectid predators (adult vs. nymph; caged vs. free‐swimming) across 2 years.

Transcriptional response of Mexican axolotls to Ambystoma tigrinum virus (ATV) infection

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2008
Background Very little is known about the immunological responses of amphibians to pathogens that are causing global population declines. We used a custom microarray gene chip to characterize gene expression responses of axolotls (Ambystoma mexicanum) to

Identification and mapping of potential and highly likely vectors for selected vector‐borne diseases in the EU and neighbouring countries

open access: yesEFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract This report addresses Term of Reference 1.2 by providing a comprehensive knowledge‐mapping of arthropod vector species competent to transmit selected vector‐borne diseases (VBDs) including VBDs listed under Regulation (EU) 2016/429 and Regulation (EU) 2020/687, as well as additional non‐listed pathogens with potential epidemiological relevance.

Adaptive immunity and histopathology in frog virus 3-infected Xenopus

open access: yesVirology, 2005
Xenopus has been used as an experimental model to evaluate the contribution of adaptive cellular immunity in amphibian host susceptibility to the emerging ranavirus FV3. Conventional histology and immunohistochemistry reveal that FV3 has a strong tropism for the proximal tubular epithelium of the kidney and is rarely disseminated elsewhere in Xenopus ...

Identification and characterization of the frog virus 3 DNA methyltransferase gene

open access: yesJournal of General Virology, 1995
Cytosine DNA methyltransferases (MTases) first recognize specific nucleotide sequences and then transfer a methyl group from S-adenosylmethionine to cytosine. This division of function is reflected in five highly conserved motifs shared by cytosine MTases. The region containing the first four motifs is responsible for the catalytic function whereas the

Interactive rhythms across species: The evolutionary biology of animal chorusing and turn-taking

open access: yes, 2019
The study of human language is progressively moving toward comparative and interactive frameworks, extending the concept of turn‐taking to animal communication.

Pathogenesis of frog virus 3 (Ranavirus sp, Iridoviridae) in the wood frog, Rana sylvatica (Lithobates sylvaticus)

open access: yes, 2015
Amphibian populations suffer massive mortalities from infection with Frog Virus 3 (FV3, Ranavirus, Iridoviridae), a pathogen also responsible for mortalities of fish and reptiles.

The Binding, Infection, and Promoted Growth of Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis by the Ranavirus FV3

open access: yesViruses
Increasing reports suggest the occurrence of co-infection between Ranaviruses such as Frog Virus 3 (FV3) and the chytrid fungus Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd) in various amphibian species.

Juvenile agile frogs spatially avoid ranavirus-infected conspecifics

open access: yesScientific Reports
Exposure to contagious pathogens can result in behavioural changes, which can alter the spread of infectious diseases. Healthy individuals can express generalized social distancing or avoid the sources of infection, while infected individuals can show ...
