Rhizophora mangle Rhizophora mangle, known as the red mangrove, is distributed in estuarine ecosystems throughout the tropics. Its viviparous seeds, in actuality called propagules, become fully mature plants before dropping off the parent tree.These are dispersed by water until eventually embedding in the shallows.s a viviparous plant, R. mangle creates a propagule that is in reality a living tree. Though resembling an elongated seed pod, the fully-grown propagule on the mangrove is capable of rooting and producing a new tree. The trees are hermaphrodites, capable of self pollination or wind pollination.

Why be a cannibal? The benefits to cane toad, Rhinella marina  [= Bufo marinus ], tadpoles of consuming conspecific eggs To assess whether cane toad eggs provide significant nutrition for conspecific tadpole growth and development, we reared toad tadpoles at ambient temperatures using 1000 ml plastic containers filled with 750 ml bore water in a randomized block design experiment.1) Toxin transfer. The amount and diversity of toxins (bufadienolides) decrease from the egg stage through larval development in cane toads, such that late-stage tadpoles and metamorphs have less effective chemical defences than earlier tadpoles or (especially) eggs (Hayes et al. 2009).

- Abstract. During embryonic development of the amphibian, Xenopus laevis, the dorsal side of the embryo forms approximately opposite the sperm entry point, and the anterior and posterior axes are linked to this through the process of gastrulation.‐catenin (orange) accumulates in the cytoplasm on the prospective dorsal side of the embryo (right) opposite the sperm entry point (left). Green is autofluorescence of yolk. (Reproduced from Larabell et al. .
