Abstract:

The eyes are the most important sensory organs for most vertebrates. Their structure and development is conserved between several vertebrate species. The development is regulated by several signalling pathways, including the Wnt/β-catenin signalling pathway. It is required for several aspects of retinal development and it is known to regulate the proliferation of neuro-epithelial stem cells. In Xenopus laevis the intracellular Wnt/β-catenin signalling pathway is activated in the retina by the Wnt receptor Fz5. Fz5 function in the eye was shown to regulate tissue specific gene expression and ne

Amphibians develop in aquatic environments where they are very susceptible to the effects of pesticides and other environmental contaminants. Glyphosate-based herbicides are widely used and have been shown to affect survival and development of tadpoles under laboratory conditions.

Abstract:

Amphibians have been facing global declines over the last decades due to direct and indirect effects of anthropogenic activities. One of the leading causes is environmental contamination, particularly that of waterbodies which are used by many amphibian species for reproduction, development, and adult life. An important source of contamination comes from agricultural runoffs of pesticides such as neonicotinoids, which are known to alter anuran survival, behaviour, predation stress response, and development. However, few studies have investigated the possible interactions between neonicotinoids

Abstract:

This thesis examines the applicability of pre-dominantly Western theories of inclusive school development in countries of the Global South. Firstly, the findings of a review of research literature are used to develop a typology to describe the common features of inclusive schools, incorporating ways in which they might be supported. This typology was then used to explore the ways in which schools in the Lao People's Democratic Republic and Thailand developed inclusive practices. Engagement with school systems in these countries over a period of six years between 2003 and 2009 provided opportun

The causes and consequences of variation in aposematic signals during immature stages are not clearly understood. This thesis explores the effects of early environment on the expression of aposematic signals in the green and black poison frog (Dendrobates auratus), and the consequences of variation in such components in the wild. It also explores how aposematic expression relates to levels of chemical defences in immature froglets. Embryos and larvae of poison frogs in the genus Dendrobates are known to be darkly pigmented.

Abstract:

Environmental stressors are ubiquitous. Animals will face a variety of natural and anthropogenic stressors throughout their life cycle. The physiological mechanisms that mediate stressful stimuli can have pleiotropic effects on life history traits, such as reproduction and development. Furthermore, these phenotypic changes can affect larger-scale ecosystem dynamics, like nutrient cycling and disease epizootics. Animals are not equally susceptible to stressors across all stages of their life cycles. Critical windows of development, common in young and developing animals, are time periods when s

Abstract:

My thesis has accomplished 3 significant contributions to neuroscience. Firstly, I have discovered a novel example of vertebrate deep-brain photoreception. Spontaneously generated fictive locomotion from the isolated nervous system of pro-metamorphic Xenopus tadpoles is sensitive to the ambient light conditions, despite input from the classical photoreceptive tissues of the retina and pineal complex being absent. The photosensitivity is found to be tuned to short wavelength UV light and is localised to a small region of the caudal diencephalon. Within this region, I have discovered a populatio

Abstract:

The desmosome is one of the major cell adhesion junctions found in the epithelia, heart, and hair follicle. Described as a “rivet” that hold cells together, it provides these tissues with the integrity to withstand the tremendous forces they face in everyday life. Defects in this junction can lead to devastating diseases where patients are susceptible to skin infections and cardiovascular defects. Limited treatments exist for diseases of the desmosome, and strategies do not target all symptoms. Therefore, delineating the function and regulation of desmosomes is of paramount importance for the

Naphthenic acids (NAs) are oil-derived mixtures of carboxylic acids and are aquatic contaminants of emerging concern. The objective of the research presented in this thesis was to investigate the toxicity of NAs in tadpoles of the frog Silurana (Xenopus) tropicalis. Using electrospray ionization high-resolution mass spectrometry (ESI-HRMS), I determined that the proportions of O2 (presumably carboxylic acid moiety) species were 98.8, 98.9 and 58.6% respectively, for two commercial extracts (S1 and S2), and acid extractable organics (AEOs) from oil sands process-affected water (OSPW).

At 3 days post fertilization (dpf), larvae started gill ventilation at a rate of 28 ± 4 beats/min and showed increased frequency to 60 ± 2 beats/min at a PO2 of 30 mmHg.

The effects of TCS on metamorphosis were also investigated. For 0-week tadpoles, LC50 values for TCS and TCC were 0.87 mg/L and 4.22 mg/L, respectively, and both compounds caused a significant stunting of growth. For 4-week tadpoles, the LC50 values for TCS and TCC were 0.22 mg/L and 0.066 mg/L; and for 8-week tadpoles, the LC50 values were 0.46 mg

Vertebrate genomes exhibit global methylation of cytosine residues where they occur in a cytosine-guanine dinucleotide (CpG) context and this epigenetic mark is generally thought to be repressive to transcription. Punctuating this pervasive DNA methylation landscape are short, contiguous regions of non-methylated DNA which are found at two thirds of mammalian gene promoters. These non-methylated regions exhibit CpG content close to expected levels as they escape the depletion of CpGs observed across the methylated fraction of the genome.

To these cognitive and linguistic tasks is the added social and pragmatic task of monitoring the knowledge and attention states of their listener.

Abstract:

Cannibalism is a seemingly aberrant interaction, appearing counter to the fitness of individuals. Yet cannibalism is not overly uncommon, and naturally occurs among aquatic organisms, including larval amphibians. In temporary wetlands larval amphibians are in a race to complete metamorphosis before their aquatic habitat disappears. When intraspecific competition intensifies, eating conspecifics may represent a beneficial if not necessary strategy. The research presented within this thesis aims to characterize factors that influence cannibalism within populations of larval amphibians. Wood frog
