Assimilation of marine extracellular polymeric substances by deep-sea prokaryotes in the NW Mediterranean Sea.

abstract：:Amphibians are in decline as a result of habitat destruction, climate change and infectious diseases. Tadpoles are thought susceptible to infections because they are dependent on only an innate immune system (e.g. macrophages). This is because the frog adaptive immune system does not function until later stages of the...
