Review of the Amphibian Immune Response to Chytridiomycosis, and Future Directions

Frontiers in Immunology, 2018
The fungal skin disease, chytridiomycosis (caused by Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis and B. salamandrivorans), has caused amphibian declines and extinctions globally since its emergence. Characterizing the host immune response to chytridiomycosis has been

Verification of the Detection Performance of Drone Radio Telemetry for Tracking the Movement of Frogs

Drones, 2021
Elucidating the various behavioral and ecological uses of animal habitats is the basis for the conservation and management of animal species. Therefore, tracking the movement of animals is necessary.

Sticking under wet conditions: the remarkable attachment abilities of the torrent frog, staurois guttatus [PDF]

, 2013
Tree frogs climb smooth surfaces utilising capillary forces arising from an air-fluid interface around their toe pads, whereas torrent frogs are able to climb in wet environments near waterfalls where the integrity of the meniscus is at risk.

Reciprocal Trophic Interactions and Transmission of Blood Parasites between Mosquitoes and Frogs

Insects, 2012
The relationship between mosquitoes and their amphibian hosts is a unique, reciprocal trophic interaction. Instead of a one-way, predator-prey relationship, there is a cyclical dance of avoidance and attraction.

Of Frogs & Rhetoric: The Atrazine Wars [PDF]

, 2015
In a scientific dispute over the effects of atrazine on amphibians, chemical industry–funded and publically funded scientists present stunningly contrasting constructions of atrazine\u27s environmental concentrations, persistence, and potential to harm ...

Multiple‐Level Variation of Advertisement Calls of Microhyla fissipes Across Hainan Island

Ecology and Evolution
Vocalization is an important feature in anuran identification that could vary among individuals and populations. We present an investigation of multiple‐level variation on advertisement calls of Microhyla fissipes from nine populations across Hainan ...

Differential Uptake of Gold Nanoparticles by 2 Species of Tadpole, the Wood Frog (Lithobates Sylvaticus) and the Bullfrog (Lithobates Catesbeianus)

, 2017
Engineered nanoparticles are aquatic contaminants of emerging concern that exert ecotoxicological effects on a wide variety of organisms. We exposed cetyltrimethylammonium bromide–capped spherical gold nanoparticles to wood frog and bullfrog tadpoles ...

Decreased cold‐sensing function of the transient receptor potential channel TRPM8 from tailed amphibians

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Despite frogs avoiding low temperatures, examination of four salamander species revealed that none avoided cold and all possessed cold tolerance. Functional analysis of TRPM8, a cold sensor, showed that all salamander TRPM8s had lost their cold sensitivity.
