Genotyping by sequencing can reveal the complex mosaic genomes in gene pools resulting from reticulate evolution: a case study in diploid and polyploid citrus.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND AND AIMS:Reticulate evolution, coupled with reproductive features limiting further interspecific recombinations, results in admixed mosaics of large genomic fragments from the ancestral taxa. Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) data are powerful tools to decipher such complex genomes but still too costly to be used for large populations. The aim of this work was to develop an approach to infer phylogenomic structures in diploid, triploid and tetraploid individuals from sequencing data in reduced genome complexity libraries. The approach was applied to the cultivated Citrus gene pool resulting from reticulate evolution involving four ancestral taxa, C. maxima, C. medica, C. micrantha and C. reticulata. METHODS:A genotyping by sequencing library was established with the restriction enzyme ApeKI applying one base (A) selection. Diagnostic single nucleotide polymorphisms (DSNPs) for the four ancestral taxa were mined in 29 representative varieties. A generic pipeline based on a maximum likelihood analysis of the number of read data was established to infer ancestral contributions along the genome of diploid, triploid and tetraploid individuals. The pipeline was applied to 48 diploid, four triploid and one tetraploid citrus accessions. KEY RESULTS:Among 43 598 mined SNPs, we identified a set of 15 946 DSNPs covering the whole genome with a distribution similar to that of gene sequences. The set efficiently inferred the phylogenomic karyotype of the 53 analysed accessions, providing patterns for common accessions very close to that previously established using WGS data. The complex phylogenomic karyotypes of 21 cultivated citrus, including bergamot, triploid and tetraploid limes, were revealed for the first time. CONCLUSIONS:The pipeline, available online, efficiently inferred the phylogenomic structures of diploid, triploid and tetraploid citrus. It will be useful for any species whose reproductive behaviour resulted in an interspecific mosaic of large genomic fragments. It can also be used for the first generations of interspecific breeding schemes.

Project description:Background and Aims:In Central Europe Hypericum perforatum and Hypericum maculatum show significant hybridization and introgression as a consequence of Pleistocene range fluctuations, and their gene pools are merging on higher ploidy levels. This paper discusses whether polyploid hybrid gene pools are trapped in the ecological climatic niche space of their diploid ancestors, and tests the idea of geographical parthenogenesis. Methods:DNA sequence information of nuclear ribosomal DNA and plastid loci, ploidy level estimates and ecological niche modelling are used to characterize the various diploid and polyploid gene pools and unravel spatio-temporal patterns of gene flow among them. Key Results:On the diploid level, the three gene pools are clearly distinct between and within species of H. perforatum (two gene pools) and H. maculatum, and their divergence dates back to the first half of the Pleistocene. All polyploids in Central Europe show high levels of past and contemporary gene flow between all three gene pools. The correlation of genetic and geographical distances breaks down if the latter is larger than 250 km, indicating recent and ongoing gene flow. The two species are ecologically differentiated, but in particular hybrids among all three gene pools do not show significant niche differences compared to their parental gene pools, except for some combinations with H. maculatum. Conclusions:Inter- and intraspecific gene flow between inter- and intra-species gene pools is limited on the diploid level, and the geographical distribution of the diploids largely reflects Pleistocene evolutionary history. Secondary contact promoted hybridization and introgression on the polyploid level, enabling offspring to escape the diploid gene pools. However, the hybrid polyploids do not show significant niche differences compared to their diploid progenitors. It is concluded that the observed absence of niche divergence has precluded further differentiation and geographical partitioning of new polyploid lineages being effectively separated from the parental lines. The predominantly apomictic reproducing polyploids are trapped in the polyploid gene pool and the ecological climatic niche space of their diploid ancestors.
