5S ribosomal RNA genes of the newt Notophthalmus viridescens.
The genes which code for the 5S ribosomal RNA in the newt, Notophthalmus viridescens have been cloned and analyzed. Two types of repeating unit were detected: a major type consisting of a 120 bp coding region with a 111 bp spacer, and a minor type composed of a coding region, a pseudogene, and a 113 bp spacer. The pseudogene is a 36 bp segment which corresponds to the 3' terminal third of the 5...
متن کاملThe “False Breeding Season” of the Eastern Newt, Notophthalmus viridescens
The terrestrial red eft stage is so different from the body form of the aquatic adult of the eastern newt that the two were considered separate species for nearly 60 years. Some populations lack the eft stage whereas in other populations the adults are aquatic only during the breeding season. In populations in which the adults are permanently aquatic or migrate to breeding ponds in fall, an aut...
متن کاملIn vitro transcription of cloned 5S RNA genes of the newt Notophthalmus
Recombinant plasmids that carried genes coding for 5S ribosomal RNA of the newt, Notophthalmus viridescens, were transcribed in vitro with extracts of Xenopus laevis oocyte nuclei. Plasmids containing multiple repeats of the 5S gene and spacer directed accurate transcription of 5S RNA (120 bases). Individual repeat units were recloned by inserting Sau 3A restriction fragments into the Bam HI si...
متن کاملThe Eastern red-spotted newt Notophthalmus viridescens uses
the geomagnetic field for two forms of spatial orientation: (1) shoreward orientation, which utilizes only directional (‘compass’) information (Phillips, 1986a,b; Phillips and Borland, 1992a,b; Deutschlander et al., 1999a,b, 2000; Phillips et al., 2001) and (2) map-based homing orientation (‘true navigation’), which utilizes both compass and geographic position (‘map’) information (Phillips, 19...
متن کاملLimb developmental stages of the newt Notophthalmus viridescens.
The current study consists of a detailed description of normal larval forelimb and hindlimb development in the newt, Notophthalmus viridescens. This is the first comprehensive record of staging limb development in this urodele amphibian species, augmenting Fankhauser's work which was published in fragments 60 years ago. Larvae were obtained by natural spawning, without hormone injections and wh...
