Researchers sequenced the genome of the Western Spadefoot toad, a key species to study how organisms respond to global change
Western Spadefoot toad has a great capacity to adjust its behaviour, morphology and physiology to environmental changes. Its genome sequencing will help to understand how environmental variations...
The ability of organisms to respond to environmental changes could incur physiological costs
The study, led by the Doñana Biological Station – CSIC, has been carried out with amphibian larvae. Results suggest that maintaining the machinery necessary to respond to environmental...
Cross-species transcriptomics uncovers genes underlying genetic accommodation of developmental plasticity in spadefoot toads
A new research from the Doñana Biological Station has compared the transcriptome-wide responses of two species of spadefoot toads with differing capacity for developmental acceleration of their...
