Amphibian population genetics in agricultural landscapes: does viniculture drive the population structuring of the European common frog (Rana temporaria)?
Amphibian populations have been declining globally over the past decades. The intensification of agriculture, habitat loss, fragmentation of populations and toxic substances in the environment are considered as driving factors for this decline. Today, about 50% of the area of Germany is used for agriculture and is inhabited by a diverse variety of 20 amphibian species. Of these, 19 are exhibiti...
متن کاملExplorative genome scan to detect candidate loci for adaptation along a gradient of altitude in the common frog (Rana temporaria).
Today, with the rapid development of population genomics, the genetic basis of adaptation can be unraveled directly at the genome level, without any prerequisites about the selectively advantageous genes or traits. For nonmodel species, it is now possible to screen many markers randomly scattered across the genome and to distinguish between the neutral genetic background and outlier loci displa...
متن کاملGenetic diversity in water frog hybrids (Pelophylax esculentus) varies with population structure and geographic location.
Pelophylax esculentus is a hybridogenetic frog originating from matings between P. ridibundus (RR) and P. lessonae (LL). Typically, diploid hybrids (LR) live in sympatry with one of their parental species, upon which they depend for successful reproduction. In parts of their range, however, pure hybrid populations can be found. These hybrid populations have achieved reproductive independence fr...
متن کاملThe effect of diazinon exposure on hepatic tissue and enzymes in male frog Rana sridibunda
The purpose of this study was to examine the acute and sub-acute effects of diazinon onhistopathological parameters of liver tissue and blood level of hepatic enzymes of male commonfrog (Rana ridibunda). Frogs were assigned to 9 groups (n=8, meaning 8 frogs in each group):control and treatment groups with 30, 60, 90 and 120 μg/L diazinon in water for one day or oneweek. Hepatic enzymes containi...
متن کاملGenetic diversity, but not hatching success, is jointly affected by postglacial colonization and isolation in the threatened frog, Rana latastei.
Both postglacial colonization and habitat fragmentation can reduce the genetic diversity of populations, which in turn can affect fitness. However, since these processes occur at different spatial and temporal scales, the consequences of either process may differ. To disentangle the relative role of isolation and postglacial colonization in determining genetic diversity and fitness, we studied ...
