Type: Wild type. Genetic Modification: Unaltered.

RRID: HUARC_1002. Xenbase Identifier: XB-LINE-1153.

This strain originated from frogs Dr. K. Yasuda (NAIST, Japan) obtained from the Grainger lab (University of Virginia, USA) in 1996 and propagated for several generations. The eighth generation was provided to the Amphibian Research Center in 1998 and 2003. This strain was previously labelled as “Yasuda” and renamed because its mitochondrial haplotype is identical to Nigerian.
