The Iberian ribbed newt, Pleurodeles waltl, is a promising model amphibian distinguished by ease of breeding and efficient transgenic and genome editing methods. (elsevierpure.com)
En route through Spain he also found the highly aquatic Iberian Sharp-ribbed Newt ( Pleurodeles waltl ) which is also found in the province. (weebly.com)
Although the axolotl ( Ambystoma mexicanum ) is one of the most commonly used salamanders, a number of other species such as Ambystoma tigrinum (Tiger salamander), Ambystoma maculatum (Spotted salamander) Notophthalmus viridescens (Eastern newt), and Pleurodeles waltl (Iberian newt) are commonly used for tetrapod tissue regeneration research 39 .

After a nice dinner in Navacerrada (pizza is always a good idea) we went to some nearby quarries and found many Iberian Water Frogs ( Pelophylax perezi ), many larvae of both Southern Marbled Newt ( Triturus pygmaeus ) and Sharp-ribbed Newt ( Pleurodeles waltl ) and of the latter also a nice adult.

Triturus2
Reciprocal non-monophyly has been established through molecular studies for the European mountain newts (Calotriton, Euproctus) and the modern European newts (Ichthyosaura, Lissotriton, Neurergus, Ommatotriton, Triturus) since Calotriton was identified as the sister lineage of Triturus. (hbz-nrw.de)
However, I'm less sanguine about the fact that he also found the rather handsome Southern Marbled Newt ( Triturus pygmaeus) in Alcala itself! (weebly.com)
Lissotriton1
Within modern European newts, Ichthyosaura and Lissotriton changed their position compared to the mito-genomic tree. (hbz-nrw.de)
Calotriton1
The major difference concerns the position of Calotriton, which is no longer nested within the modern European newts. (hbz-nrw.de)
Cynops1
A specific sperm-egg interaction in the oviductal matrix is crucial for internal fertilization of the red-bellied newt, Cynops pyrrhogaster . (ehu.eus)
Urodele1
Urodele newts have unique biological properties, notably including prominent regeneration ability. (elsevierpure.com)
Mitochondrial1
Previous molecular trees based on seemingly large nuclear data sets, but analysed together with mitochondrial data, did not reveal monophyly of modern European newts since taxon sampling and nuclear gene coverage was too poor to obtain conclusive results. (hbz-nrw.de)
Forum2
Forum Questions (technical, not newts! (caudata.org)
Many people have requested an area of the forum in which to discuss topics not directly related to the rest of the forum (such as newt and salamander art). (caudata.org)
Iberian1
During the last years monitoring and conservation activities have been promoted by the monument's administration, including the reintroduction of the Iberian ribbed newt, using tadpoles recovered from drying natural ponds in the Granada district. (wildphoto.it)
Carranza and Wade (2004) found out that most North African Pleurodeles species that had previously been referred to as P. poireti were in fact Pleurodeles nebulosus, an altogether different species. (wikipedia.org)
The true P. poireti newts are found only on the Edough Massif, in northeast Algeria. (wikipedia.org)
Salamanders2
Below I present the different species of salamanders, newts, frogs and toads present in the community. (topbirding.com)
Based on our calculations, we can confirm that fire salamanders ( Salamandra salamandra ), natterjack toads ( Epidalea calamita ) and common frogs ( Rana temporaria ) are also killed en masse in Europe. (scienceinpoland.pl)
Species3
The Algerian ribbed newt (Pleurodeles nebulosus) is a species of salamander in the family Salamandridae found in Algeria and Tunisia. (wikipedia.org)
The Algerian ribbed newt is a medium-sized species growing to a length of about 23 cm (9 in). (wikipedia.org)
Next, we used clodronate liposomes to deplete macrophages, which inhibited lens regeneration in both newt species. (bvsalud.org)
Lens regeneration3
To establish optical coherence tomography (OCT) as an in vivo imaging modality for investigating the process of newt lens regeneration. (nih.gov)
Spectral-domain OCT was employed for in vivo imaging of the newt lens regeneration process. (nih.gov)
Previous studies indicated that macrophages play a role during lens regeneration in newts, but their function has not been tested experimentally. (bvsalud.org)
Regeneration2
When we removed the lower arm of newts at the elbow joint level, we found regeneration of a functional elbow joint within 70 days after amputation, although the size of the regenerating lower arm was still miniature compared to that of the remaining upper arm, suggesting the existence of a reintegration system between regenerating and remaining tissues during regeneration. (nii.ac.jp)
Based on this finding, we have amputated frog arms at the joint level according to our experiments using newts, and we have succeeded in evoking functional joint regeneration from frog, in which nobody had observed joint regeneration after metamorphosis so far. (nii.ac.jp)
A genus of aquatic newts belonging to the family Salamandridae and sometimes referred to as "spiny" tritons. (nih.gov)
Ribs3
The other contender, the newt, pushes its ribs to the side until their pointy ends pierce through its skin, producing a row of barbs, say scientists who published a study of the little beast last week. (popsci.com)
These barbs are poisonous because the newt secretes a deadly chemical on its skin, which the ribs pick up while tearing through the animal's own flesh. (popsci.com)
The ribs of this newt pierce the skin of the back, carrying toxins with them, when the animal is threatened. (thatpetplace.com)
Found1
By that time I found my second Pygmy Marbled Newt. (natura-rica.com)
Skin1
The hairy frog's skin and artery strands that hang off its torso like a beard during mating season (thought to help it absorb more oxygen) are a fright to many humans, although it might not have any effect on hypothetical newt assailants. (popsci.com)
