The genome of the Western clawed frog Xenopus tropicalis.
The western clawed frog Xenopus tropicalis is an important model for vertebrate development that combines experimental advantages of the African clawed frog Xenopus laevis with more tractable genetics. Here we present a draft genome sequence assembly of X. tropicalis. This genome encodes more than 20,000 protein-coding genes, including orthologs of at least 1700 human disease genes. Over 1 mill...
متن کاملGenomic Dynamics of Transposable Elements in the Western Clawed Frog (Silurana tropicalis)
Transposable elements (TEs) are repetitive DNA sequences that can make new copies of themselves that are inserted elsewhere in a host genome. The abundance and distributions of TEs vary considerably among phylogenetically diverse hosts. With the aim of exploring the basis of this variation, we evaluated correlations between several genomic variables and the presence of TEs and non-TE repeats in...
متن کاملPlotting the course of an African clawed frog invasion in Western France
The African clawed frog, Xenopus laevis, is an invasive species with considerable impact in mediterranean climates, similar to its native South African Cape. A population has been established in western France since the early 1980s with a single, known, original release point. This study attempts to determine the limits of the invasion by trapping in 169 ponds in 2001 and 2002. Subsequent trapp...
متن کاملInbreeding Ratio and Genetic Relationships among Strains of the Western Clawed Frog, Xenopus tropicalis
The Western clawed frog, Xenopus tropicalis, is a highly promising model amphibian, especially in developmental and physiological research, and as a tool for understanding disease. It was originally found in the West African rainforest belt, and was introduced to the research community in the 1990s. The major strains thus far known include the Nigerian and Ivory Coast strains. However, due to i...
متن کاملEffects of Sub-lethal Doses of Urea on Pregnant Cattle
Six pregnant cows received, by injection into the rumen, 0.20 to 0.30 g urea/kg body-weight at 104 to 148 days of pregnancy, 0.35 g/kg at 124 to 169 days of pregnancy, 0.35 g/kg at 208 to 226 days of pregnancy and 0.30 g/kg at 256 to 273 days of pregnancy. The change in blood ammonia concentration was followed for approximately seven hours after dosing. Five cows survived until calving and gave...
