Frogs [PDF ebook] 
Genetic Diversity, Neural Development and Ecological Implications

In this book the authors present current research in the study of frogs. Frog`s neuromuscular junction (NMJ) is a classic and favorite object which have played a leading role in developing understanding of the basic mechanisms of synaptic transmission and secretion of neuromediator. The genetic diversity, neural development and ecological implications of frogs are examined throughout the book. Some of the topics the authors discuss in this compilation include poison storage and maturation in serous cutaneous glands of anurans; a mini review of the suppression of anuran metamorphosis by synthetic chemical compounds; mechanisms of suprathreshold excitation of a frog tectal neuron column by discharge of a single moving edge or darkness detector and their relation to a frog escape reactions; behavioral, ecological, and evolutionary aspects of diversity in frog color patterns; physiological features of blood’s system of frogs rana ridibuda pall; and presynaptic voltage-dependent calcium channels at the frog neurmuscular junction.
