Ancient polyploidization events have shaped diverse eukaryotic genomes 1, including two rounds of whole-genome duplication at the base of the vertebrate radiation 2. While polyploidy is rare in ...
Behavioral Ecology and Sociobiology, Vol. 62, No. 11 (Sep., 2008), pp. 1821-1829 (9 pages) We examined the behavioral and developmental responses of Xenopus laevis larvae to their mirror images in ...
The African clawed frog (Xenopus laevis) is the most commonly used frog in biological research 1. It is the model amphibian in developmental and molecular biology because, among other characteristics, ...
The genome sequence of the most common laboratory frog reveals that it originated when different frog species hybridized and the genome doubled, paralleling events that led to the origin of ...
The lifespan of Xenopus laevis is presented in unprecedented detail using high-quality X-ray microtomography images and 3D reconstructions to reveal embryonic development and metamorphosis processes ...
Scientists have created the world’s first living, self-healing robots using stem cells from frogs. Named xenobots after the African clawed frog (Xenopus laevis) from which they take their stem cells, ...
Because of its large eggs, Xenopus laevis -- the African clawed frog -- has become a popular model for studying embryo development and cell biology. It's smaller cousin, X. tropicalis, is now gaining ...
The African clawed frog, Xenopus laevis, is a palm-sized, greenish-gray animal that hails from the ponds and rivers of sub-Saharan Africa, where it lived for millions of years without anyone injecting ...
Neurons have the amazing ability to self-organize into highly refined networks. I am interested in how these networks form. I am especially interested in the molecular pathways underlying this process ...
Scientists are making use of Xenopus tadpoles to study autism risk genes. In this webinar, learn how next-gen CAR-T design targets solid tumors and which tools ease the path from discovery to clinic.
African clawed frogs used to be the best human pregnancy tests in the world. Doctors would inject a woman's urine into the back of a female frog; if positive, the frog would lay eggs. Frog or "Hogben" ...
A fungus that grows on the backs of frogs may be responsible for the extinction of dozens of species, say the authors of a study published in Thursday’s issue of Nature. Amphibian chytrid fungus seems ...
