Targeted Sequencing of Salamander Voltage-Gated Sodium Channels
The purpose of this study was to characterize the evolutionary history of tetrodotoxin resistance in salamanders. We used targeted sequencing with custom designed probes to sequence full-length voltage-gated sodium channel genes from Plethodon cinereus and Cryptobranchus alleganiensis (n=2 individuals each) and from Notophthalmus viridescens, Taricha granulosa, and Taricha torosa (n=3 individuals each).
