- NUTRITIVE AND ANTI-NUTRITIONAL VALUES OF SKINNED EDIBLE BULLFROG PYXICEPHALUS ADSPERSUS FOR AQUAFEED
L. O. Udeh, Jehu Auta, Bolanle S. Bawa et al. · FUDMA Journal of Sciences · 2024-12 · open access
An investigation on proximate, mineral and anti-nutrition properties of Pyxicephalus adspersus was conducted with the view to evaluating its appropriateness as aquafeed source and food source. Standard analytical methods were used to determine proximate, minerals (macro and micro nutrients) and…

Derek Engelbrecht · Biodiversity Observations · 2024-05 · open access
This note reports on observations of the simultaneous breeding irruptions of Pyxicephalus adspersus and P. edulis at the same place and time on the farm Uitkoms 864 LS north of Polokwane (23° 41' 30"S, 29° 30' 23"E, QDGC 2329DA; 1192 m a.s.l.). The frogs were calling and spawning over an area of…

1. Introduction Cladosporium spp. (Dothideomycetes, Cladosporiaceae), are eso-saprophytic fungi spread worldwide in every kind of terrestrial and marine environment. The genus comprises at least 218 species, including common endophytes, plant pathogens, biocontrol agents for plant diseases, and…

Cloeckaert A, Vergnaud G, Zygmunt MS · Frontiers in microbiology · 2020-02 · open access
Introduction Members of the genus Brucella are Gram-negative, facultative, intracellular bacteria that can infect many species of animals and man. Until the 1990s, six species were classically recognized within the genus Brucella: B. abortus, B. melitensis, B. suis, B. ovis, B. canis, and B.…
- Comparative and functional analysis of the digital mucus glands and secretions of tree frogs.
Langowski JKA, Singla S, Nyarko A et al. · Frontiers in zoology · 2019-06 · open access
Background Climbing is an important aspect of terrestrial locomotion, as it allows animals to avoid ground-dwelling predators and to access elevated habitats, but poses significant challenges, especially on wet and slippery surfaces. For successful climbing, species from various clades have…

- Acute and chronic effects of acidic pH on four subtropical frog species
Charon Farquharson, Victor Wepener, Nico Jacobus Smit · Water SA · 2016-01 · open access
Acidic precipitation is implicated as a possible cause of global amphibian decline. Even protected areas such as Kruger National Park receive acid rain which may lead to possible negative effects on the park’s natural amphibian populations. We conducted acute (LC50) and chronic acid tolerance…
