Anuran responses to spatial patterns of agricultural landscapes in Argentina
(2016-12)Context: Amphibians are declining worldwide and land use change to agriculture is recognized as a leading cause. Argentina is undergoing an agriculturalization process with rapid changes in landscape structure. Objectives: ... -
Biomarker and hematological fieldwork with amphibians: is it necessary to sample all night?
(Springer, 2020-03)In the context of the global amphibian crisis, biomonitoring constitutes a valuable assessment tool to provide critical up to date information on the status and health of amphibians worldwide. The aim of the current study ... -
Combined effects of agrochemical contamination and forest loss on anuran diversity in agroecosystems of east-central Argentina
(Elsevier, 2020-11)Agricultural expansion and intensification has led globally to a rapid landscape structure change and high agrochemical use resulting in habitat loss and degraded environmental quality. Co-occurrence of landscape change ... -
Concentration of current-use pesticides in frogs from the Pampa region and correlation of a mixture toxicity index with biological effects
(Elsevier, 2021-11)Contamination with current-use pesticides is frequently mentioned as a key factor in global amphibian declines although a limited number of studies have examined the mixture of pesticides accumulated by free-living frogs. ... -
Integration of a battery of biomarkers to evaluate the health status of field-collected frogs of Leptodactylus luctator living in ecosystems with different anthropogenic disturbances
(Elsevier, 2024-07-10)Amphibians are the most threatened group of vertebrates because they have certain biological and ecological characteristics that make them sensitive to environmental changes. The aim of this study was to evaluate the health ... -
Toxicity to Rhinella arenarum tadpoles (Anura, Bufonidae) of herbicide mixtures commonly used to treat fallow containing resistant weeds: glyphosateedicamba and glyphosateeflurochloridone
(Elsevier, 2020-04-01)Glyphosate (GLY)-dicamba (DIC) and GLY-flurochloridone (FLC) are herbicide mixtures which are widely used for treating fallow containing glyphosate resistant weeds. The aim of this study was to evaluate the acute toxic ...
