Transcriptome annotation reveals minimal immunogenetic diversity among Wyoming toads, Anaxyrus baxteri
Carlson, K. B., Wcisel, D. J., Ackerman, H. D., Romanet, J., Christiansen, E. F., Niemuth, J. N., … Yoder, J. A. (2022, April 28). CONSERVATION GENETICS, Vol. 4.
author keywords: Amphibian; Bufonidae; Immunogenetics; MHC; TLR; Transcriptomics
TL;DR:
Comparison transcriptomics is used to examine the diversity of toll-like receptors and major histocompatibility complex sequences across three individual Wyoming toads and finds reduced diversity at MHC genes compared to bufonid species with a similar history of bottleneck events.
