Impact of the medicine Hydroxyurea on reproduction and development, using Drosophila melanogaster as a model organism
(2014)
The clinical efficacy of oral hydroxyurea (HU) in the treatment of the sickle cell disease (SCD) is already proven. However, side-effects on reproduction and development still cause concerns, mainly in long term treatments. ...
Costs and benefits of temporary egg desertion in a rocky shore frog with male-only care
(Springer, 2016)
Egg attendance imposes costs on parents, including decreased food intake and increased mortality risks. By concentrating parental activities when egg predation is greater and abiotic conditions are less stressful, parents ...
