The Effects Of Adrenergic And Cholinergic Stimulation On Skin Gland Secretions In The Dwarf African Frog Hymenochirus Curtipes, Daniel H. Gong Jan 1997

The Effects Of Adrenergic And Cholinergic Stimulation On Skin Gland Secretions In The Dwarf African Frog Hymenochirus Curtipes, Daniel H. Gong

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

Many studies have been done on the neural control of serous gland secretion in the skin of frogs and newts. However, no studies have been published on the effects of adrenergic and cholinergic neurotransmitters on the sexually dimorphic breeding glands of male frogs. The present study examined the effects of neurotransmitters on the serous and breeding glands of Hymenochirus curtipes. Explants of dorsal skin and postaxial skin (containing whole breeding glands) were incubated in vitro with epinephrine, norepinephrine or acetylcholine for 30 minutes. The explants were then preserved and examined histologically for signs of secretion. The area and perimeter of …


The Roles Of Harsh And Fluctuating Conditions In The Dynamics Of Cological Communities, P Chesson, Nancy J. Huntly Jan 1997

The Roles Of Harsh And Fluctuating Conditions In The Dynamics Of Cological Communities, P Chesson, Nancy J. Huntly

Biology Faculty Publications

Harsh conditions (e.g., mortality and stress) reduce population growth rates directly; secondarily, they may reduce the intensity of interactions between organisms. Near-exclusive focus on the secondary effect of these forms of harshness has led ecologists to believe that they reduce the importance of ecological interactions, such as competition, and favor coexistence of even ecologically very similar species. By examining both the costs and the benefits, we show that harshness alone does not lessen the importance of species interactions or limit their role in community structure. Species coexistence requires niche differences, and harshness does not in itself make coexistence more likely. …
