Antimicrobial peptide and sequence variation along a latitudinal gradient in two anurans

BACKGROUND: While there is evidence of both purifying and balancing selection in immune defense genes, large-scale genetic diversity in antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), an important part of the innate immune system released from dermal glands in the skin, has remained uninvestigated. Here we describe...
