Emei Mustache Toad aka Taosze Spiny Toad, (Leptobrachium boringii), family Megophryidae, endemic to SE China

ENDANGERED.

The larger males grow keratinized spines on the upper lip, which they use to defend territories, during the breeding season. The spines fall off after the breeding season.

Emei Moustache Toad (Leptobrachium boringii)

these fancy gentlemen grow stiff upper lip spikes during breeding season to fight for territories! named after one of their very few habitats in the world (Mount Emei, China) and for those sweet, sweet ‘staches.

Adenylosuccinate synthase raised Sclerotinia sclerotiorum resistance via modulation regarding ATP and also glucosinolate biosynthesis inside Brassica rapa ssp pekinensis

The ataxia telangiectasia mutated (ATM) gate is the most essential security technique that maintains genome ethics. We all learned that negative credit childhood sarcoma, mammalian focus on associated with rapamycin (mTOR) signaling inhibits Atm machine by up-regulating miRNAs aimed towards ATM. Pharmacological hang-up or perhaps hereditary downregulation with the mTOR pathway led to improve involving Cash machine #Link# mRNA and also necessary protein in the mouse sarcoma xenografts along with cultured tissue. mTOR Complicated One particular (mTORC1) suppresses ATM by way of S6K1/2 signaling path ways. microRNA-18a as well as microRNA-421, each of which targeted ATM, tend to be absolutely managed by mTOR signaling. The conclusions have got discovered an adverse suggestions cycle for the signaling among Cash machine as well as mTOR pathways as well as #Link# suggest that oncogenic growth signals may well advertise tumorigenesis by dampening your Cash machine gate.Intro: Host to dying is considered a quality signal regarding end-of-life proper care and also which allows website visitors to perish had been they will decide on is a vital desire regarding palliative care. This study is designed to check the particular connection between participation regarding palliative attention services and place regarding death. Methods: Info concerning individual features, use of health and wellness care, as well as involvement involving palliative care companies throughout nonsudden or even expected deaths in every medical care adjustments inside 2005-2006 (In = 1690) had been gathered by way of a surveillance circle regarding general practitioners (Gps navigation) within The kingdom. Bivariate as well as multivariate organizations in between effort of palliative attention solutions along with death in your own home, throughout clinic, inside a proper care residence, or even in a modern attention product ended up looked at employing chihuahua(A couple of) exams as well as Wald exams. Results: Palliative proper care services have been involved in 21.8% associated with demise of the existing in the home, throughout 30.1% of these residing in attention properties, plus 12.4% associated with demise in healthcare facility. Individuals were more likely to pass away of their usual home instead of medical center if multidisciplinary modern home care groups (probabilities ratio [OR]: 7.Four, self-assurance period [CI]: 4.7-15.One particular) or the palliative attention research folks of these treatment residence (As well as: Being unfaithful.Several, CI: Several.3-26.Seven) have been concerned. Effort associated with multidisciplinary modern assist teams within hospitals ended up being associated with reduced probability of passing away at home (Or perhaps: 2.Three or more, CI: 0.1-0.9). Higher participation regarding Gps device had not been #Link# immediately connected with out-of-hospital death. Discussion: Concerning multidisciplinary palliative homecare clubs as well as palliative proper care research people within treatment residences can help folks passing away out-of-hospital. Health care policy-makers must look into methods to enhance engagement regarding modern treatment services in all of the medical care options.Many of us document five microsatellite loci within the Emei moustache toads, Leptobrachium boringii. Indicators have been acquired by simply screening the genomic selection fortified for microsatellite motifs.

Integrative taxonomic analysis reveals a new species of Leptobrachium (Anura: Megophryidae) from north-eastern Cambodia and central Vietnam

Bryan L. Stuart, Hannah E. Som, Thy Neang, Huy Duc Hoang, Duong Thi Thuy Le, Vinh Quang Dau, Kathy Potter & Jodi J. L. Rowley

ABSTRACT

Species boundaries within the red-eyed Leptobrachium of southern Indochina have been uncertain. Leptobrachium pullum and L. mouhoti from upper and lower elevations, respectively, of the Langbian Plateau of southern Vietnam and eastern Cambodia differ in body size but have relatively low interspecific mitochondrial DNA divergence, leading to speculation that these might represent a single species with an elevational cline in body size.  

The recent discovery of an allopatric high-elevation population of red-eyed Leptobrachium on the Kon Tum Plateau (= Central Highlands) of north-eastern Cambodia and central Vietnam has been referred to both species, and to a putatively undescribed species. 

We examine variation in morphology of adults and tadpoles, mitochondrial DNA, 11 nuclear genes and advertisement calls, and show corroborating lines of evidence for the existence of three species of red-eyed Leptobrachium in southern Indochina. 

Although the three species are reciprocally monophyletic in mitochondrial DNA, their shallow mitochondrial DNA divergences are not mirrored by morphology, advertisement calls, or – in part – nuclear DNA, and probably reflect past mitochondrial introgression rather than recent speciation. The Central Highlands taxon is described herein as a new species.

Montane Large-eyed Litter Frog

The tadpole of L. montanum is found in small to medium-sized mountain streams with rocky stream bed. As the other species in the genus, tadpoles grow big (> 70 mm).

#L montanum is an abbriviation for their other name #Leptobrachium montanum #which when put like L. montanum makes the frogs sound like very dignified gentlemen and I really like that #montane large eyed litter frog #montane large eyed litter frogs #frog #frogs #animal #animals #animal fact #animal facts #fun animal fact #fun animal facts #fact #facts #zoology #fun fact #fun facts

The Ailao Moustache #Toad (Leptobrachium ailaonicum) has a 'moustache' of hard, conical spines. Males use them in combat with other males of their own species in defending breeding sites.

I have a question. Out of all the amphibians you can think of, which have the most protuberant, goofy-looking, bug eyes? Like, I know most frogs and toads have pretty bulging eyes but there's gotta one or two species that take that up to eleven? Love your blog, it's a really nice mix of informative and fluffiness.

Oof, this is a tough one. Really had to give it some thought.

Purple frogs, Nasikabatrachus, have eyes that look like they have been glued onto a ball of clay:

But I feel like that's not what you're going for.

I think perhaps the most strikingly bulbous eyes belong to frogs of the genus Leptobrachium

These frogs have such huge heads—and then in those heads such huge eyes—that they really look like they were drawn by a cartoonist.

The montane large-eyed litter frog  [Leptobrachium montanum] is a species complex endemic to Borneo. These small frogs reach a maximum of 2.5 inches in length, with their tadpoles often exceeding their adult form at 2.8 inches in length or more. These frogs are native to submontane and montane forests at high elevations. Images by Yoyo Freelance.
