Skin transcriptomics of invasive Coqui frogs: stress responses, parasite signatures, and antimicrobial peptides.
Resilience in amphibians lies in their ecological adaptability, driven by their genetic makeup. Eleutherodactylus coqui, native to Puerto Rico (PR) and a beloved symbol there, is among the most successful invasive amphibians. This species is extensively studied in terms of its biology and genetics,...
