Emerging Pathogen in Wild Amphibians and Frogs (Rana catesbeiana) Farmed for International Trade
Chytridiomycosis is an emerging disease responsible for global decline and extinction of amphibians. We report the causative agent, Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis, in North American bullfrogs (Rana catesbeiana) farmed for the international restaurant ...

Perichordal Vertebral Column Formation in Rana kobai. [PDF]
In contrast to the previous study, centrum formation begins with a pair of ossification centers at the base of neural arches in Rana. At the early stage of intervertebral disc formation, a wedge‐like cartilage domain is observed posteroventral to the centrum. Evolutionary implications are discussed based on these observations.

Abnormal Limb Development in Rana catesbeiana
SummaryPreliminary evidence has been presented which indicates that in the larval anuran, Rana catesbeiana, stimulation of the anterior limb bud field by cutting leads to the formation of supernumerary limbs. The abnormal appendages were conveniently categorized as duplicate or triplicate structures.

Flexibility within the middle ears of vertebrates [PDF]
Introduction and aims: Tympanic middle ears have evolved multiple times independently among vertebrates, and share common features. We review flexibility within tympanic middle ears and consider its physiological and clinical implications.

Non-O1/O139 Vibrio cholerae causes severe intestinal disease in bullfrogs (Rana catesbeiana)
Bullfrogs (Rana catesbeiana) are amphibians with high economic value, but in recent years, bullfrog farming has encountered serious threats of bacterial diseases, and the “bullfrog economy” is facing a continuous decline.

Population Responses of Wood Frog (Rana Sylvatica) Tadpoles to Overwintered Bullfrog (Rana Catesbeiana) Tadpoles [PDF]
A fundamental goal in ecology is to understand how environmental variation influences the distribution of individuals within a population. In this study, we used laboratory experiments to examine the population responses of sympatric Wood Frog (Rana ...

Abstract The NLRP3 inflammasome is essential for innate immunity against pathogens, yet its function in amphibians remains poorly understood. Here, we identified and cloned two novel isoforms of NLRP3 from the American bullfrog (Aquarana catesbeiana), designated AcNLRP3 X1 and AcNLRP3 X2, with open reading frames of 2397 bp (798 aa) and 2874 bp (957 aa)
