Staurois parvus adult frog tissue. Staurois parvus adult frog tissue

To identify unique expression patterns in spinal cord, leg muscle, and brain of Staurois parvus frogs, with the goal of creating a resource for future studies to understand the evolution of an elaborate hind limb signaling behavior called "foot flagging" in this species. Overall design: We dissected whole brain (n=2), spinal cord (n=4), and hind leg thigh muscle (n=5) from adult male Staurois parvus frogs raised in captivity at the Vienna Zoo. We placed fresh tissue in RNAlater until further processing.
