Reproductive proteins evolve at unparalleled rates, resulting in tremendous diversity of both molecular composition and biochemical function between gametes of different taxonomic clades. To date, the proteomic composition of amphibian gametes is lar

The proteomic composition of amphibian gametes is largely a molecular mystery, particularly for Urodeles (salamanders and newts) which have few genomic-scale resources. Lungless salamanders (family Plethodontidae) include approximately two thirds of

In response to pervasive sexual selection, protein sex pheromones often display rapid mutation and accelerated evolution of corresponding gene sequences. For proteins, the general dogma is that structure is maintained even as sequence or function may

Electrophysiological studies have shown that gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) modifies chemosensory neurons responses to odors. We have previously demonstrated that male Plethodon shermani pheromone stimulates vomeronasal neurons in the female c

Gene co-option is a major force in the evolution of novel biological functions. In plethodontid salamanders, males deliver proteinaceous courtship pheromones to the female olfactory system or transdermally to the bloodstream. Molecular studies identi

Rapid evolution is a hallmark of proteins involved in reproduction. The protein courtship pheromones in plethodontid salamanders are classic examples of such rapidly evolving reproductive proteins, with male pheromones likely coevolving with female r

The evolutionary success of plethodontid salamanders for ~100 MY is due partly to the use of courtship pheromones that regulate female receptivity. In ~90 % of plethodontid species, males deliver pheromones by "scratching" a female's dorsum, where ph

During the annual mating season, the mental gland of male plethodontid salamanders diverts its protein synthesizing capacity to the production of courtship pheromones that increase female receptivity. Plethodontid modulating factor (PMF), a highly di

During courtship, adult male plethodontid salamanders transfer protein pheromones that augment female receptivity. The majority of plethodontid species apply pheromones transdermally (to the female's dorsal skin). These pheromones apparently diffuse

Traditionally, male signals have been thought to function in satisfying female choice by conveying meaningful information about a potential mate. However, the male signal, rather than merely providing raw material for female evaluation, may actively
