Phenotypic differences in terrestrial frog embryos: effect of water potential and phase.

The Journal of experimental biology - 1 Dec 2008

Andrewartha Sarah J, Mitchell Nicola J, Frappell Peter B

Abstract excerpt

The terrestrial embryos of many amphibians obtain water in two ways; in a liquid phase from the substrate on which eggs are deposited, and in a vapour phase from the surrounding atmosphere. We tested whether the mode of water flux (liquid or vapour) affected the morphology and metabolic traits of the terrestrial Victorian smooth froglet (Geocrinia victoriana) embryos by incubating eggs both with a liquid water...
