DOI: 10.1163/15707563-bja10154
Abstract: According to Richards’ hypothesis, the presence of a nonpigmented unicellular alga in the intestinal tract of tadpoles is believed to be the inhibitory factor that affects their growth. It is proposed that thecanimals eat their… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/v15030750
Abstract: Most zoonotic pathogens originate from mammals and avians, but viral diversity and related biosafety risk assessment in lower vertebrates also need to be explored. Amphibians are an important group of lower vertebrates that played a… read more here.
