Grant Program:
Discovery Projects
Grant Activity:
Environmental and physiological drivers of immune function in frogs
Purpose:
This project aims to investigate how ultraviolet B radiation and temperature interact during early development to influence amphibian physiology. The environment can shape ecological processes through effects on an individuals' physiology. The project will combine genetic, biochemical and physiological approaches to investigate the effects of ultraviolet B and temperature on a key fitness determinant – immune system function. The project expects to provide information on how environmental conditions experienced during development influence the growth and fitness of frogs. This will improve our capacity to forecast potential ecological-level effects of environmental change on amphibians.
