Project description:Background: The horn fly, Haematobia irritans (L.), is an obligate blood-feeding parasite of cattle and control of this pest is a continuing problem in the United States and other parts of the world. Worldwide annual economic losses attributable to this pest surpass $1 billion. The fly is becoming resistant to pesticides and new control technologies are needed by cattle producers. Results: Dominant conditional lethal gene systems are being investigated as population control technologies against agricultural insect pests. One of the critical components of these systems is a highly expressed female-specific gene promoter which can be used to drive expression of a lethality-inducing gene. To identify candidate genes to supply this gene promoter, microarrays were designed from a recently developed horn fly EST database and probed to identify female-specific and larval-specific differential gene expression. Analysis of dyeswap experiments found 432 and 417 transcripts which were over- and under-expressed in adult female flies, respectively, compared to adult male flies. Additionally, 419 and 871 transcripts were over- and under-expressed in first instar larvae compared to adult flies. Three transcripts were identified which were over-expressed in adult females flies compared to adult males and which also were over-expressed in the first instar larval lifestage compared to adult flies. Conclusion: We have identified 3 strong candidates for further evaluation as a gene promoter source for the development of a female-specific conditional lethality system in the horn fly. One of these candidates, the putative nanos orthologue, has a high female-to-male expression ratio, has a moderate expression level in first instar larvae, and has been well characterized in D. melanogaster. Further investigations leading from this microarray analysis will include transformation of the horn fly and evaluation of the female conditional lethal system components for applicability to the specific biological parameters of natural populations of the horn fly.

Project description:modENCODE_submission_762 This submission comes from a modENCODE project of Eric Lai. For full list of modENCODE projects, see http://www.genome.gov/26524648 Project Goal: We plan to generate a comprehensive catalog of expressed and functional microRNAs, and generate biological evidence for their regulatory activity. We plan also to delineate the primary transcription units of microRNA genes. Finally, we plan to annotate other classes of non-miRNA expressed small RNAs, as least some of which may define novel classes of small RNA genes.

Keywords: evaluation of 1st instar larvae genes vs pooled adult + egg genes In short, RNA from female horn flies was labeled and hybridized against labeled RNA from male horn flies in a dyeswap design. Similarly, RNA from first instar larvae was labeled and hybridized against labeled a 50:50 mix of RNA from adult male and female flies. All labeling, hybridization and washing procedures were performed according to respective manufacturer protocols. For each sample, 10 ïg of total RNA and 50-fold dilution of Agilent two color spike-in control RNA kit (Agilent Technologies Inc.) were labeled with either CyDye3-dCTP or CyDye5-dCTP (Amersham Biosciences, Piscataway, NJ) using the LabelStar kit (Qiagen Inc., Valencia, CA) and oligo-dT and Random nonamers (Sigma-Aldrich Inc., St. Louis, MO). Labeled cDNA was hybridized to the Agilent microarrays using the Gene Expression Hybridization kit (Agilent Technologies Inc.) following manufacturerâs protocols. Arrays were washed with Gene Expression Wash Buffer kit (Agilent Technologies Inc.) A total of 8 arrays, including a dye swap for each RNA replicate (4 biological replicates), were analyzed to obtain genes that were consistently regulated while limiting false discover rate (FDR) below 2.5% [26].

Project description:Species often produce sterile hybrids early in their evolutionary divergence, and some evidence suggests that hybrid sterility may be associated with deviations or disruptions in gene expression. In support of this idea, many studies have shown that a high proportion of male-biased genes are underexpressed compared to non-sex-biased genes in sterile F1 male hybrids of Drosophila species. In this study, we examined and compared patterns of misexpression in F1 hybrid male third instar larvae of Drosophila simulans and its sibling species, D. sechellia. We analyzed hybrids using custom cDNA arrays we developed from RT-PCRs of spermatogenesis-related transcripts from these species and another sibling species (D. mauritiana). The results from a commercial genome-wide array and custom chip for adults of this species pair, from the custom chip and the genome-wide chip for adults of the D. simulans-D. mauritiana species pair, and from the larvae of the D. simulans-D. mauritiana species pair, are presented separately. Keywords: Comparison of pure-species Drosophila expression to hybrid expression in larvae

Project description:In recent years, Apolygus lucorum has caused increasing damage to cotton and fruit trees in China. The salivary enzymes secreted by A. lucorum when sucking on host plants induce a series of biochemical reactions in plants, and the pre-oral digestion benefits the bug feeding. In this study, the food intake of A. lucorum from 1st instar nymphs to adults was measured, and the corresponding salivary activity of pectinase, amylase, cellulase, protease, polyphenol oxidase and peroxidase was determined. Daily food intake varied with developmental stage, peaking in 3rd and 4th instar nymphs. Pectinase, amylase, cellulase and protease were detected in both nymphal and adult saliva of A. lucorum, while neither polyphenol oxidase nor peroxidase was detected. Protease activity varied with food intake peaking at the 3rd-4th instar, and then slightly decreasing at the 5th instar. Levels of pectinase, amylase and cellulase increased significantly with the daily feeding level until the 3rd instar, corresponding with increasing damage to host plants. The activity of both cellulase and protease had a significant linear relationship with the average daily food intake. The increasing activity of enzymes in saliva explain stage-specific impacts of A. lucorum on the host plants, and suggest that optimal management of A. lucorum would be confined to its control threshold prior to the peak of daily feeding in the 3rd instar.
