Chen DM, Chen LD, Kouba CK et al. · PloS one · 2024-07 · open access
More than 50% of caudates are threatened with extinction and are in need of ex-situ breeding programs to support conservation efforts and species recovery. Unfortunately, many salamander populations under human care can experience reproductive failure, primarily due to missing environmental cues…
- Comparing novel sperm extenders for the internally-fertilizing tiger salamander (Ambystoma tigrinum)
Devin M. Chen, Carrie K. Kouba, Nucharin Songsasen et al. · Frontiers in Amphibian and Reptile Science · 2024-01 · open access
Due to the concentrated nature and small volume of spermic milt that is typically produced from internally-fertilizing salamanders, an extender is needed to analyze the sperm for quality and quantity metrics. Techniques for diluting salamander sperm for analysis have thus far utilized low…

- Environmental Drivers of Amphibian Breeding Phenology across Multiple Sites
Michael F. Benard, Katherine R. Greenwald · Diversity · 2023-02 · open access
A mechanistic understanding of phenology, the seasonal timing of life history events, is important for understanding species’ interactions and the potential responses of ecological communities to a rapidly changing climate. We present analysis of a seven-year dataset on the breeding phenology of…

Lampert SS, Burger IJ, Julien AR et al. · Animals : an open access journal from MDPI · 2022-12 · open access
Sperm cryopreservation and biobanking are emerging as tools for supporting genetic management of small and threatened populations in amphibian conservation programs. However, there is little to no evidence demonstrating reproductive maturity and viability of offspring generated with cryopreserved…

Flynn RW, Hoover G, Iacchetta M et al. · Environmental toxicology and chemistry · 2022-03 · open access
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are contaminants of concern due to their widespread occurrence in the environment, persistence, and potential to elicit a range of negative health effects. Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances are regularly detected in surface waters, but their effects on…

- Turtling the Salamander: Tail Movements Mitigate Need for Kinematic Limb Changes during Walking in Tiger Salamanders ( Ambystoma tigrinum) with Restricted Lateral Movement.
Vega CM, Ashley-Ross MA · Integrative organismal biology (Oxford, England) · 2021-10 · open access
Lateral undulation and trunk flexibility offer performance benefits to maneuverability, stability, and stride length (via speed and distance traveled). These benefits make them key characteristics of the locomotion of tetrapods with sprawling posture, with the exception of turtles. Despite their…
- The Immune System and the Antiviral Responses in Chinese Giant Salamander, Andrias davidianus .
Jiang N, Fan Y, Zhou Y et al. · Frontiers in immunology · 2021-10 · open access
Introduction The Chinese giant salamander ( Andrias davidianus ) is the largest and the most primitive urodele amphibian alive worldwide. The Japanese salamander, the American hellbender, and the Chinese giant salamander are few living members belonging to the most ancient amphibian lineage, the…
