Deep genetic structure and ecological divergence in a widespread human commensal toad.

Biology letters - 1 Jan 2016

Wogan Guinevere O U, Stuart Bryan L, Iskandar Djoko T, McGuire Jimmy A

Abstract excerpt

The Asian common toad (Duttaphrynus melanostictus) is a human commensal species that occupies a wide variety of habitats across tropical Southeast Asia. We test the hypothesis that genetic variation in D. melanostictus is weakly associated with geography owing to natural and human-mediated dispersal facilitated by its commensal nature. Phylogenetic and population genetic analyses of mitochondrial and nuclear DNA...
