Project description:In this work, we evaluated the genetic stabilization process, of the intra- (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) and interspecific (S. cerevisiae x Saccharomyces kudriavzevii) hybrids obtained by different non-GMO techniques, under fermentative conditions. Large-scale transitions in genome size, detected by measuring total DNA content, and genome reorganizations in both nuclear and mitochondrial DNA, evidenced by changes in molecular markers, were observed during the experiments. Interspecific hybrids seem to need fewer generations to reach genetic stability than intraspecific hybrids. The largest number of molecular patterns among the derived stable colonies was observed for intraspecific hybrids, particularly for those obtained by rare-mating in which the total amount of initial DNA was larger. Finally, a representative intraspecific stable hybrid underwent a normal industrial process to obtain active dry yeast production as an important point at which inducing changes in genome composition was possible. No changes in hybrid genetic composition after this procedure were confirmed by comparative genome hybridization. According to our results, fermentation steps 2 and 5 –comprising between 30 and 50 generations- suffice to obtain genetically stable interspecific and intraspecific hybrids, respectively. This work aimed to develop and validate a fast genetic stabilization method for newly generated Saccharomyces hybrids under selective enological conditions. A comparison of the whole stabilization process in intra- and interspecific hybrids showing different ploidy levels, as a result of using different hybridization methodologies, was also made.

Project description:Using reduced representation bisulfite sequencing (RRBS), we have compared the methylomes of neuronal and non-neuronal cells from three female human and three chimpanzee cortices (Brodmann area 10). Differentially methylated regions (DMRs) with genome-wide significance were enriched in specific chromosomal regions. Intraspecific methylation differences between neuronal and non-neuronal cells were approximately three times more abundant than interspecific methylation differences between human and chimpanzee cell types. The vast majority (>90%) of human intraspecific DMRs (including DMRs with retrotransposons) were hypomethylated in neurons, compared to glia. Intraspecific DMRs were enriched in genes that have been associated with different neuropsychiatric disorders. Interspecific DMRs were enriched in genes showing human-specific brain histone modifications. Methylation differences between human and chimpanzee non-neuronal cells (N=666) were much more frequent than neuronal interspecific DMRs (N=96). More than 95% of interspecific non-neuronal DMRs were hypermethylated in humans.

A stable hybrid strain was compared with itself before and after ADY (active dry yeast) production in order to evaluate the genetic stability of this strain.

Project description:Cytosine methylation is a conserved base modification, but explanations for its interspecific variation remain elusive. Only through taxonomic sampling of disparate groups can unifying explanations for interspecific variation be thoroughly tested. Here we leverage phylogenetic resolution of cytosine DNA methyltransferases (DNA MTases) and genome evolution to better understand widespread interspecific variation across 40 diverse fungal species. DNA MTase genotypes have diversified from the ancestral DNMT1+DNMT5 genotype through numerous loss events, and duplications, whereas, DIM-2 and RID-1 are more recently derived in fungi. Methylation is typically enriched at intergenic regions, which includes repeats and transposons. Unlike certain Insecta and Angiosperm species, Fungi lack canonical gene body methylation. Some fungi species possess large clusters of contiguous methylation encompassing many genes, repetitive DNA and transposons, and are not ancient in origin. Broadly, methylation is partially explained by DNA MTase genotype and repetitive DNA content. Basidiomycota on average have the highest level of methylation, and repeat content, compared to other phyla. However, exceptions exist across Fungi. Other traits, including DNA repair mechanisms, might contribute to interspecific methylation variation within Fungi. Our results show mechanism and genome evolution are unifying explanations for interspecific methylation variation across Fungi.

Project description:Functional-assay limitations are an emerging issue in characterizing human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs). With rodent PSCs, chimera formation, using pre-implantation embryos, is the gold-standard assay of pluripotency. In hPSCs, this can only be monitored via teratoma formation or in vitro differentiation, as ethical concerns preclude generation of human-animal chimera. To circumvent this issue, we established a functional assay utilizing interspecific blastocyst injection and in vitro culture (interspecies in vitro chimera assay). The assay uses mouse pre-implantation embryos and human PSCs to make interspecies chimeras cultured in vitro to the early egg cylinder stage. When hiPSCs, both conventional and naive type, which called M-bM-^@M-^\reset cellM-bM-^@M-^], were injected into mouse embryos and cultured. The cells were never integrated into the epiblast of egg cylinder stage-embryo. These results suggest that hPSCs, including naM-CM-/ve type, are unable to form chimera with mouse embryo. Reset cells were converted from conventional human iPSC line PB004, and then compared their gene expression profile with or without transgene overexpression induced by doxycyclin treatment.

Project description:Drought is a major limitation to the growth and productivity of trees in the ecologically and economically important genus Populus. The ability of Populus trees to contend with drought is a function of the responsiveness of their genome to this environmental insult, involving reconfiguration of the transcriptome to appropriately remodel growth, development and metabolism. The Populus drought transcriptome is shaped by interspecific genotypic variation, but the extent to which intraspecific variation shapes the drought transcriptome has not yet been examined. Here we test hypotheses aimed at examining the extent of intraspecific variation in the drought transcriptome. Transcriptome remodeling in response to water-deficit conditions was examined in six different Populus balsamifera L. genotypes using Affymetrix GeneChip technology. There were significant differences in the transcriptomes of the genotypes in response to water-deficit conditions; however, a common species-level response could also be identified across all individuals. Genotypes that had more similar drought-responsive transcriptomes also had fewer genotypic differences, as determined by microarray-derived single feature polymorphism (SFP) analysis, suggesting that responses may be conserved across individuals that share a greater degree of genotypic similarity. This work highlights the fact that a core species-level response can be defined; however, the underpinning genotype-derived complexities of the drought response in Populus must be taken into consideration when defining both species- and genus-level responses. 72 arrays total. 6 genotypes, 2 time points. 2 water regimes. 3 biological replicates per treatment

Project description:We have employed whole genome microarray expression profiling as a discovery platform to identify genes to alter the transcript accumulation levels in two types of hybrid necrosis-showing plants; one was derived from interspecific crosses of two diploid wheat species Triticum monococcum ssp. aegilopoides and Triticum urartu, and another from intraspecific hybrids of common wheat. Of the up-regulated genes, defense-related and carbohyfrate metabosim-related genes were frequently found, whereas photosythesis-related genes down-regulated in the hybrid necrosis-showing plants. These observations strongly suggests that autoimmune responses might be triggered by Ne1-Ne2 interaction in common wheat and by Ned1-Ned2 interaction in the wild diploid wheat, and that genetically programmed cell death could be regarded as a hypersensitive response-like cell death similar to that observed in other wheat hybrid necrosis such as type III necrosis in the ABD wheat triploids crossed between tetraploid wheat and Aegilops tauschii.
