Physiological and Biochemical Adaptations to High Altitude in Tibetan Frogs, Nanorana parkeri

The Xizang plateau frog, N. parkeri (Anura: Dicroglossidae), is endemic to the Tibetan Plateau, ranging from 2,850 to 5,100 m above sea level. The present study explores physiological and biochemical adaptations to high altitude in this species with a particular emphasis on parameters of hematology,...
