Revisiting the relationship between regenerative ability and aging

open access: yesBMC Biology, 2013
Contrary to the longstanding view that newts (Notophthalamus viridescens), but not axolotls (Ambystoma mexicanum), can regenerate a lens, a recent report in BMC Biology by Panagiotis Tsonis and colleagues shows axolotls indeed possess this ability during

Establishment of a Practical Sperm Cryopreservation Pathway for the Axolotl (Ambystoma mexicanum): A Community-Level Approach to Germplasm Repository Development

open access: yesAnimals
The axolotl (Ambystoma mexicanum) draws great attention around the world for its importance as a biomedical research model, but housing and maintaining live animals is increasingly expensive and risky as new transgenic lines are developed.

Post‐Pleistocene differentiation in a Central Interior Highlands endemic salamander

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2019
Aim For many endemic species with limited dispersal capacities, the relationship between landscape changes and species distributions is still unclear. We characterized the population structure of the endemic ringed salamander (Ambystoma annulatum) across

Lineage tracing of genome-edited alleles reveals high fidelity axolotl limb regeneration

open access: yeseLife, 2017
Salamanders are unparalleled among tetrapods in their ability to regenerate many structures, including entire limbs, and the study of this ability may provide insights into human regenerative therapies.

Comparative Genomics of an Emerging Amphibian Virus

open access: yesG3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2016
Ranaviruses, a genus of the Iridoviridae, are large double-stranded DNA viruses that infect cold-blooded vertebrates worldwide. Ranaviruses have caused severe epizootics in commercial frog and fish populations, and are currently classified as notifiable ...

THE STRUCTURE OF THE SPERMATOPHORES OF AMBYSTOMA PUNCTATUM [PDF]

open access: yesThe Biological Bulletin, 1910
Since the recent paper of Wright and Allen (†09)has again directed attention to the breeding habits of A mbystorna puncta turn, it has occurred to me that a more careful description of the spermatophores than has yet been given might be of value in a comparative survey of the habits of the urodeles.

Water‐borne and plasma corticosterone are not correlated in spotted salamanders

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2019
Water‐borne hormone measurement is a noninvasive method suitable for amphibians of all sizes that are otherwise difficult to sample. For this method, containment‐water is assayed for hormones released by the animal.
