The newt ribozyme is part of a riboprotein complex.
Investigations of the whole process of fertilisation in the newt may lead to an understanding of adaptation to the fertilisation mode in amphibians.
Sperry (1972), in a series of classic experiments, showed that newts were capable of optic nerve regeneration.
The ponds contain crested, smooth and palmate newts.
A second public consultation on possible special areas of conservation is planned to commence shortly—this will include possible sites for the great crested newt.
Quite simply, we have been neutered by the great crested newt.
The eye of our observant friend will catch sight of a pond where he once used to stalk newts with a jar.
The toad breeds in water and the newt, of course, lives in it.
