which found cane toad tadpoles suppressed the growth of tadpoles and reduced the embryo survival to under five percent when separated from them with a mesh partition but kept in the same container and recommends keeping tadpoles in mesh containers in breeding ponds to suppress other cane toads.doi...
Commonly, population genetic studies of the parasitic nematodes that infect macropod marsupials reveal that what was previously classified as a single nematode species with a broad host range is actually a complex of cryptic species, each with a narrow host range (Table2). This highlights the abili...
Shifts in activity time enable young cane toads to evade cannibalistic conspecifics The small body sizes of these animals render them vulnerable to desiccation and overheating--so why are they active by day? To answer this question, we... Lígia Pizzatto, Travis Child and Richard Shine - 《...
Travelling waves for the cane toads equation with bounded traits. In this paper, we study propagation in a nonlocal reaction-diffusion-mutationmodel describing the invasion of cane toads in Australia. The population oftoa... E Bouin,V Calvez - 《Nonlinearity》 被引量: 57发表: 2013年 ...
We studied free-ranging varanid lizards (Yellow-spotted monitors, Varanus panoptes) at a site in tropical Australia during the influx of fatally toxic cane toads, Rhinella marina. Mortality was inferred from shifts in population structure, as well as the survival rates (time to death) of 107 ...
2017 The Zoological Society of London Northern Australia's native mammal fauna has undergone a severe decline in recent decades. Putative factors include altered fire regimes, cat predation, poisoning by cane toads and disease. Populations of northern quolls, Dasyurus hallucatus severely declined ...
The cane toad Bufo marinus has been migrating westward across northern Australia since its introduction as a biological control agent in 1935. It has been implicated in the widespread decline of many native frog‐eating predators. To investigate the impacts of this invasive species on native ...

of expanding populations. Because this phenomenon has been documented on large spatial scales, it seems difficult to determine what proportion of the phenotypic variation is due to the expansion process (spatial sorting) versus spatial variation in the environment (local adaptation). The aim of our ...
