Disease can impact the long-term viability of threatened species. Levels of genetic variation in disease response genes could influence the magnitude of these impacts, but identifying candidate genes in endangered species is difficult. We used a multifaceted approach to identify candidate genes involved in disease response and resistance of an endangered snake, the eastern massasauga rattlesnake (Sistrurus...
