Tetraploidy in the Boettger's dwarf clawed frog (Pipidae: Hymenochirus boettgeri) from the Congo indicates non-conspecificity with the captive population
Cytogenetics can be used as a tool to study the evolution of polyploidy and taxonomy. Here
we focus on aquatic African pipids, dwarf clawed frogs (Hymenochirus). Our study reveals …
