  • Identification of Mutant Genes and Introgressed Tiger Salamander
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Identification of Mutant Genes and Introgressed Tiger Salamander DNA in the Laboratory Axolotl, Received: 13 October 2016 Accepted: 19 December 2016 Ambystoma mexicanum Published: xx xx xxxx M. Ryan Woodcock1, Jennifer Vaughn-Wolfe1, Alexandra Elias2, D. Kevin Kump1, Katharina Denise Kendall1,5, Nataliya Timoshevskaya1, Vladimir Timoshevskiy1, Dustin W. Perry3, Jeramiah J. Smith1, Jessica E. Spiewak4, David M. Parichy4,6 & S. Randal Voss1 The molecular genetic toolkit of the Mexican axolotl, a classic model organism, has matured to the point where it is now possible to identify genes for mutant phenotypes. We used a positional cloning– candidate gene approach to identify molecular bases for two historic axolotl pigment phenotypes: white and albino. White (d/d) mutants have defects in pigment cell morphogenesis and differentiation, whereas albino (a/a) mutants lack melanin. We identified in white mutants a transcriptional defect in endothelin 3 (edn3), encoding a peptide factor that promotes pigment cell migration and differentiation in other vertebrates. Transgenic restoration of Edn3 expression rescued the homozygous white mutant phenotype. We mapped the albino locus to tyrosinase (tyr) and identified polymorphisms shared between the albino allele (tyra) and tyr alleles in a Minnesota population of tiger salamanders from which the albino trait was introgressed. tyra has a 142 bp deletion and similar engineered alleles recapitulated the albino phenotype. Finally, we show that historical introgression of tyra significantly altered genomic composition of the laboratory axolotl, yielding a distinct, hybrid strain of ambystomatid salamander. Our results demonstrate the feasibility of identifying genes for traits in the laboratory Mexican axolotl. The Mexican axolotl (Ambystoma mexicanum) is the primary salamander model in biological research.

  • Tiger Salamander
    Rare Animal Fact Sheet AAAAA01140 Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries Natural Heritage Program Ambystoma tigrinum Tiger Salamander Photo by J. Harding Identification: A dark salamander irregularly patterned with yellow spots along back; sometimes yellow patches or bars along sides. The belly is mottled gray and yellow. Measurements: Typically 7-8 inches in length, occasionally reaches 13 inches. Taxonomic comments: Populations in Louisiana may be an intermediate subspecies or a hybrid of the barred salamander Ambystoma tigrinum mavortium and eastern tiger salamander Ambystoma tigrinum tigrinum. Status: Global rank is G5 and state rank is S1. Habitat: Sandy areas near water in longleaf pine savannas and flatwoods. Reside underground, sometimes in abandoned rodent burrows or crawfish holes; emerges and breeds in still water that has no fish. Range: Eastern Tiger Salamanders range from Long island along the coast through the Gulf of Mexico, east through Texas, north to the western Ohio Valley as well as the southern Great Lakes basin, west to the Minnesota and onto the eastern plains states, and it is absent from the Appalachian highlands and lower Mississippi delta. Food habits: Adults: worms, insects, snails, frogs, snakes, tadpoles, nestling mice. Larvae: all aquatic prey; perhaps cannibalistic. Life expectancy: Can live up to 25 years. Reproduction: Reach sexual maturity in 2-7 years. Females lay 10-100 eggs in gelatinous enclosed clusters from September to December. Tadpoles transform into salamanders from March to late April. Reason for decline: 1) Habitat modification: Drainage of wetlands modifies and reduces breeding habitats. Terrestrial habitats that are also modified allowing adults little protection from the sun and predators.

Alberta Environmental Protection, Fisheries and Wildlife Management Division, and Alberta Conservation Association, Wildlife Status Report No. 22, Edmonton, AB. 19 pp. ii PREFACE Every five years, the Fisheries and Wildlife Management Division of Alberta Natural Resources Service reviews the status of wildlife species in Alberta. These overviews, which have been conducted in 1991 and 1996, assign individual species to ‘colour’ lists that reflect the perceived level of risk to populations that occur in the province. Such designations are determined from extensive consultations with professional and amateur biologists, and from a variety of readily available sources of population data. A primary objective of these reviews is to identify species that may be considered for more detailed status determinations. The Alberta Wildlife Status Report Series is an extension of the 1996 Status of Alberta Wildlife review process, and provides comprehensive current summaries of the biological status of selected wildlife species in Alberta.

  • Exotic Animal Ownership and Regulations Amending New Jersey Species Restriction, Bans, and Requirements
    Exotic Animal Ownership and Regulations Amending New Jersey Species Restriction, Bans, and Requirements Tag Words: exotic animals; ownership Authors: Chris Dipiazza, Julie Haas with Julie M. Fagan, Ph.D. Summary The purpose of this whole project was to attempt to make a difference or at least get a better understanding of the issues surrounding the banning of owning certain kinds of exotic pets. Julie’s original concern went back to her not being able to transport her pet bird and lizard, Bearded Dragon, under her seat with her on a plane. Instead the airline insisted they be kept in storage beneath which can be extremely stressful especially for the bird, which is an African Gray Parrot, a species known for being extremely intelligent but also at the same time, very sensitive. My (Chris) issue had more to do with private responsible owners not being legally allowed to own certain species that really have no obvious reason for being unfit pets in the state of New Jersey. The species I was particularly focused on were salamanders belonging to the genus, amystoma. Their common names are the Tiger Salamander and the Axolotl. The first action we took to gain more information about transportation regulations and ownership regulations was to make a trip over to Hamburg, Pennsylvania to attend a reptile show, http://www.hamburgreptileshow.com/ , which is held there every other month. Reptile shows are gatherings for pet reptile enthusiasts to congregate, buy, trade, sell or just observe captive reptiles and other exotic pets. An educational seminar was also given on exotic animals, their ownership requirements, and their regulations.

  • Tiger Salamander
    TIGER SALAMANDER Ambystoma tigrinum Order Caudata Family Ambystomatidae Genus Ambystoma Species tigrinum Geographic Range Worldwide they are limited to North America, in California they live in the Central Valley and lower elevations along the coast. Habitat Wetlands and grasslands with long-lasting vernal pools which are free from predatory fish Niche Aquatic as larvae, terrestrial as adults, nocturnal, carnivorous Wild Diet Earthworms and other invertebrates Life Span 5 – 6 years in the wild, 12 – 15 in captivity Appearance Black with yellowish blotches or stripes which are unique for each individual, body length is between 3 – 8 inches, weight is between 60 – 100 grams. Adaptations Adults live almost exclusively on land, entering the water only to breed. Typically returning to its birthplace, its eggs are laid in clusters and attached to underwater vegetation. The larvae of the tiger salamander live in the water, developing limbs shortly after hatching. Dense populations of larvae can trigger cannibalism. The rate at which larvae metamorphose into adults is dependant on temperature, food level and numbers of other salamanders or competitors. Fun Facts Tiger salamanders have a tail gland which produces a toxic milky secretion for self-defense. They will curl up head and tail to display this gland as a warning. They also have specialized foot pads for burrowing. At the Zoo Our tiger salamanders live near the Family Farm in the Children’s Zoo. Comparison Metamorphosis is the process in which an amphibian transforms from its larval or tadpole stage to an adult. The process differs slightly between frogs and salamanders; adult salamanders can retain gills into sexual maturity.

Photograph by Adam Clause. Used with permission. Disclaimer Recovery plans delineate such reasonable actions as may be necessary, based upon the best scientific and commercial data available, for the conservation and survival of listed species. Plans are published by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service), sometimes prepared with the assistance of recovery teams, contractors, State agencies, and others. Recovery plans do not necessarily represent the view, official positions or approval of any individuals or agencies involved in the plan formulation, other than the Service. They represent the official position of the Service only after they have been signed by the Regional Director. Recovery plans are guidance and planning documents only; identification of an action to be implemented by any public or private party does not create a legal obligation beyond existing legal requirements. Nothing in this plan should be construed as a commitment or requirement that any Federal agency obligate or pay funds in any one fiscal year in excess of appropriations made by Congress for that fiscal year in contravention of the Anti-Deficiency Act, 31 U.S.C. 1341, or any other law or regulation. Approved recovery plans are subject to modification as dictated by new finding, changes in species status, and the completion of recovery actions.
