Comparison of transcriptomic profiles in natural populations of rodents (house mouse and black rat) along invasion routes in Senegal


ABSTRACT: We compared gene expression profiles between anciently and recently established populations of two major invading species, the black rat Rattus rattus and the house mouse Mus musculus musculus, in Senegal. Transcriptome analyses revealed respectively 364 and 83 differentially expressed genes along the mouse and rat invasion routes. Among them, 10 and 15% were annotated with functions related to immunity. All immune-related genes detected along the mouse invasion route were over-expressed at the invasion front. Genes of the complement activation pathway were over-represented. Results were less straightforward when considering the black rat. No particular immune pathway was over-represented. In conclusion, we revealed changes in transcriptomic profiles along invasion routes. Patterns differed between invaders. They could potentially be driven by increased infection risks at invasion front for the house mouse and trade-offs between immune responses for the black rat. Our results provide a first step in identifying the immune ecoevolutionary processes potentially involved in invasion success.
