Context-dependent effects of ranaviral infection on northern leopard frog life history traits.
PLoS ONE, 2010 Pathogens have important effects on host life-history traits, but the magnitude of these effects is often strongly context-dependent. The outcome of an interaction between a host and an infectious agent is often associated with the level of stress ...

Physiological control of water exchange in anurans
Ecology and Evolution, 2022 Research on water exchange in frogs has historically assumed that blood osmotic potential drives water exchange between a frog and its environment, but here we show that the “seat patch” (the primary site of water exchange in many anurans), or other ...

Up and away: ontogenic transference as a pathway for aerial dispersal of microplastics [PDF]
, 2018 Microplastics (MPs) are ubiquitous pollutants found in marine, freshwater and terrestrial ecosystems. With so many MPs in aquatic systems it is inevitable that they will be ingested by aquatic organisms, and be transferred up through the food chain ...
