Project description:The genetic mechanisms underlying hybridization are poorly understood despite their potentially important roles in speciation processes, adaptative evolution, and agronomical innovation. In this study, transcription profiles were compared among three populations of brook charr and their hybrids using microarrays to assess the influence of hybrid origin on modes of transcription regulation inheritance and on the mechanisms underlying growth. We found that twice as many transcripts were differently expressed between the domestic strain and the two wild populations (Rupert and Laval) than between wild ones, despite their deeper genetic distance. This could reflect the consequence of artificial selection during domestication. We detected that hybrids exhibited strikingly different patterns of mode of transcription regulation, being mostly additive (94%) for domestic × Rupert, and non-additive for Laval × domestic (45.7%) and Rupert × Laval hybrids (37.5%). Both heterosis and outbreeding depression for growth were observed among the crosses. Our results indicated that prevalence of dominance in transcription regulation seems related to growth heterosis, while prevalence of transgressive transcription regulation may be more related to outbreeding depression. Our study clearly shows, for the first time in vertebrates, that the consequences of hybridization on both the transcriptome level and the phenotype are highly dependent on the specific genetic architectures of crossed populations and therefore hardly predictable. Comparison between six crosses using a loop design: direct comparison of hybrids vs parental populations fishes for 8 families. Each individual was technically replicated on two bi-coloured distinct microarrays and dye-swapped.

Project description:Compared to understanding of biological shape and form, knowledge is sparse regarding what regulates growth and body size of a species. For example, the genetic and physiological causes of heterosis (hybrid vigor) have remained elusive for nearly a century. Here we investigate gene-expression patterns underlying growth heterosis in the Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas) in two partially inbred (f=0.375) and two hybrid larval populations produced by a reciprocal cross between the two inbred families. We cloned cDNA and generated 8.6 million sequence tags with massively parallel signature sequencing (MPSSâ). The sequences contain 23,277 distinct signatures that are expressed at statistically non-zero levels and show a highly positively skewed distribution with median and modal counts of 9.25 and 3 transcripts per million, respectively. Approximately 9100 nuclear transcripts are found in all four larval populations, in agreement with the number of genes expressed in sea urchin embryo. For half of the 23,277 signatures, expression level depends on genotype and is predominantly non-additive (hybrids deviate from the inbred average). Statistical contrasts suggest ~350 candidate heterosis genes that exhibit concordant non-additive expression in reciprocal hybrids. Patterns of gene expression, which include dominance for low expression and even underdominance of expression, are more complex than predicted from classical dominant or overdominant explanations of heterosis. Preliminary identification of ribosomal proteins among candidate genes supports the suggestion from previous studies that efficiency of protein metabolism plays a role in heterosis.

Project description:Expression profiling analyses for 5 maize inbreds and 4 hybrids, chosen to represent diversity in genotypes and heterosis responses, revealed a correlation between genetic diversity and transcriptional variation. The majority of differentially expressed genes in each of the different hybrids exhibited additive expression patterns, and ~25% exhibited statistically significant non-additive expression profiles. Among the non-additive profiles, ~80% exhibited hybrid expression levels between the parental levels, ~20% exhibited hybrid expression levels at the parental levels and ~1% exhibited hybrid levels outside the parental range. These findings indicate that the frequencies of additive and non-additive expression patterns are very similar across a range of hybrid lines. Keywords: Genotype comparison series

Project description:Heterosis is most frequently manifested by the substantially increased vigorous growth of hybrids compared with their parents. Investigating genomic variations in natural populations is essential to understand the initial molecular mechanisms underlying heterosis in plants. Here, we characterized the genomic architecture associated with biomass heterosis in 200 Arabidopsis hybrids. The genome-wide heterozygosity of hybrids makes a limited contribution to biomass heterosis, and no locus shows an obvious overdominance effect in hybrids. However, the accumulation of significant genetic loci identified in genome wide association studies (GWAS) in hybrids strongly correlates with better-parent heterosis (BPH). Candidate genes for biomass BPH fall into diverse biological functions, including cellular, metabolic, and developmental processes and stimulus-responsive pathways. Important heterosis candidates include WUSCHEL, ARGOS, and some genes that encode key factors involved in cell cycle regulation. Interestingly, transcriptomic analyses in representative Arabidopsis hybrid combinations reveal that heterosis candidate genes are functionally enriched in stimulus-responsive pathways, including responses to biotic and abiotic stimuli and immune responses. In addition, stimulus-responsive genes are repressed to low-parent levels in hybrids with high BPH, whereas middle-parent expression patterns are exhibited in hybrids with no BPH. Our study reveals a genomic architecture for understanding the molecular mechanisms of biomass heterosis in Arabidopsis, in which the accumulation of the superior alleles of genes involved in metabolic and cellular processes improve the development and growth of hybrids, whereas the overall repressed expression of stimulus responsive genes prioritizes growth over responding to environmental stimuli in hybrids under normal conditions.

Project description:The phenomenon of heterosis describes the increased agronomic performance of heterozygous F1-plants compared to their homozygous parental inbred plants. Heterosis is already manifested during the early stages of root development in maize. The goal of this study was to identify non-additive gene expression in primary roots of maize hybrids compared to the average expression levels of their parental inbred lines. To achieve this goal a two step strategy was selected. First, a microarray preselection of non-additively expressed candidate genes was performed. Subsequently, gene expression levels in a subset of genes were determined via high throughput qRT-PCR experiments. Initial microarray experiments identified 1941 non-redundant genes which displayed non-additive gene expression in at least one of the twelve analyzed hybrids compared to the midparent value of their parental inbred lines. Comparison of these 1941 genes with non-additively expressed genes identified in maize shoot apical meristems via the same experimental procedure in the same genotypes revealed significantly less overlap than expected by pure chance supporting. This supports the notion of organ specific patterns of non-additively expressed genes. qRT-PCR analyses of 64 of the 1941 non-additively expressed genes in four different hybrids revealed that the majority of non-additively expressed genes were expressed between the high and low parent expression values and only a small fraction of genes was expressed below low or above high parent levels. Subsequently, 22 of the 64 genes that displayed non-additive expression in all four hybrids were analyzed in twelve hybrids that were generated from four inbred lines. Among those genes a superoxide dismutase 2 was expressed significantly above the midparent value in all twelve hybrids and might thus play a protective role in antioxidative defense in the primary root of maize hybrids. These findings are consistent with the hypothesis that global expression trends but also the consistent differential expression of key genes might be relevant during the organ-specific manifestation of heterosis. Keywords: Comparative genomic hybridization Comparison of four inbred lines and the resulting twelve reciprocal hybrids. Samples from all 16 genotypes were paired on 85 arrays following a hybridization scheme including a dye-swap according to Keller et al. (2005). A tailor-made design was developed for this purpose using simulated annealing that was optimized for estimating non-additive effects while at the same time allowing estimation of additive effects with comparable precision. Optimizing precision for estimation of non-additivity required the design to be unbalanced with respect to the number of genotype pairings and the number of replications per genotype. Hence, two RNA samples were hybridized to each of the 85 microarray chips. Each RNA sample represented an independent biological replicate

Project description:Through a two-year field experiment, G70×GDH11 with strong heterosis and K326×GDH11 with weak heterosis were screened out. Transcriptome analyses revealed that 80.89% and 57.28% of the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in the strong and weak heterosis combinations exhibited an overdominant expression pattern, respectively. The genes that up-regulated the overdominant expression in the strong heterosis hybrids were significantly enriched in the ion homeostasis. Genes involved in K+ transport (KAT1/2, GORK, AKT2 and KEA3), activity regulation complex (CBL-CIPK5/6), and vacuole (TPKs) genes were overdominant expressed in strong heterosis hybrids, which contributed to K+ homeostasis and heterosis in tobacco leaves.

Project description:We examined sRNA populations in the Arabidopsis ecotypes C24, Landsberg erecta (Ler), and their reciprocal hybrids which display strong intra-species heterosis. The parental ecotypes had significant differences in their sRNA epigenomes and associated methylation profiles. The hybrids differed greatly from the parents in their sRNA epigenomes including a marked reduction in 24nt sRNA associated with loci that differed in the frequency of 24nt sRNAs between the parents. Examination of sRNA populations from two-week old seedlings from Arabidopsis ecotypes C24, Ler, and their two reciprocal hybrids.
