UV repair and resistance to solar UV-B in amphibian eggs: a link to population declines?
Explore this paper's citation graph
Summary
This work addressed the hypothesis that differential sensitivity among species to UV radiation contributes to population declines in amphibians by focusing on species-specific differences in the abilities of eggs to repair UV radiation damage to DNA and differential hatching success of embryos exposed to solar radiation at natural oviposition sites.
