Project description:The goal of this gene expression profiling experiment was to identify the entire set of transcription factors expressed during late pupal wing development (~80h APF) when pigmentation genes are expressed We used Affymetrix microarrays to profile the expression of the transcription factors in late pupal wings of Oregon R flies. The staging of the flies was made by eye, based on the extent of wing pigmentation. RNA was extracted from batches of 40 flies and three biological replicates were analyzed.

Project description:We investigated gene expression levels in Heliconius erato butterflies with divergent wing patterns across a 656KB genomic interval linked to the red color pattern wing polymorphism. This included comparison of expression between two H. erato color pattern populations (H. e. petiverana and a H.e. etylus x H. himera hybrid) across three sections of the forewing that differed in pigmentation (the basal, mid, and distal wing sections) and five different stages of pupal development (Day 1, 3, 5 pupae and ommochrome and melanin pigmentation stages). These results allowed us to determine whether certain genes in this interval were differentially expressed between the wing pattern elements, and, therefore, potentially responsible for adaptive color pattern variation in these butterflies.

Project description:The male terminalia of Drosophila melanogaster has undergone rapid morphological change between it and its closely related species, making it a useful model for studying evolution and development. In order to identify the network components that pattern the male terminalia, we isolated and sequenced whole RNA from two timepoints during pupal development, and next performed in situ hybridization for 100 highly expressed transcription factors during pupal development.

Project description:Hox genes regionalize the animal body axis by modifying complex morphogenetic and differentiation processes during development. The transformation of wings into halteres by the Hox gene Ultrabithorax (Ubx) in Drosophila melanogaster presents an excellent model system to study the transcriptional networks that control such complex developmental programmes. We have employed an inducible misexpression system to switch on Ubx in the wing epithelium at successive larval, prepupal and pupal stages, and have used microarray expression profiling to identify the primary transcriptional responses to Ubx. We find that Ubx regulates hundreds of downstream genes, mostly in a subtle manner. These targets are largely distinct at the different stages of appendage development and diversification. We have generated an experimental fly line combining the nabGal4NP3537-driver, a tub-GAL80ts transgene, and a UAS-UbxIa transgene (the control line was carrying a UAS-eGFP transgene instead). Our core microarray analysis has involved comparison of the transcriptional profile of experimental wings carrying the UAS-UbxIa transgene with that of control wings carrying the UAS-eGFP transgene. Pairwise comparisons have been carried out at three successive developmental stages, in particular at (i) the third instar larval wandering stage, about 4hrs before puparium formation at 29˚C, (ii) the prepupal stage, 6hrs after puparium formation (APF) at 29˚C, and (iii) the early pupal stage, 16hrs APF at 29˚C. Moreover, pairwise comparisons have been carried out with samples developed exclusively at 19˚C (UbxIa or eGFP expression OFF), as well as with samples collected at 16hrs after the temperature shift from 19 to 29˚C (UbxIa or eGFP expression ON). This has allowed us to distinguish the Ubx-dependent effects from the intrinsic expression differences between the fly lines used, and from the temperature-induced responses. We have carried out 4 biological replicates for each condition making a total of 48 hybridizations to Affymetrix Drosophila Genome 2.0 arrays.

Project description:We investigated gene expression levels in Heliconius erato butterflies with divergent wing patterns across a 656KB genomic interval linked to the red color pattern wing polymorphism. This included comparison of expression between two H. erato color pattern populations (H. e. petiverana and a H.e. etylus x H. himera hybrid) across three sections of the forewing that differed in pigmentation (the basal, mid, and distal wing sections) and five different stages of pupal development (Day 1, 3, 5 pupae and ommochrome and melanin pigmentation stages). These results allowed us to determine whether certain genes in this interval were differentially expressed between the wing pattern elements, and, therefore, potentially responsible for adaptive color pattern variation in these butterflies. Forewings from a total of 29 individuals, covering three biological replicates of five developmental time points for each of the two H. erato distinct phenotypes were dissected, with the only exception being that there were only two replicates of the day 1 hybrid phenotype. Individuals were reared at 25˚C and dissected at the following stages: a) day 1 = 12 hr after pupation; b) day 3 = 60 hr after pupation; c) day 5 = 108 hr after pupation; d) early ommochrome = ~ 156 hr after pupation when red scales in forewing partially mature, showing a pale orange color; and e) early melanin = ~ 180 hr after pupation melanic scales begin to turn black and are present primarily at the center of the wing. Using wing veins as landmarks, each forewing was cut into three sections corresponding to the color pattern boundaries: basal (F1), middle (F2), and apical (F3). A eight custom-designed Roche NimbleGen 12x135K format microarrays with probes spanning a 656,307bp genomic region (Roche NimbleGen Inc., Madison, Wisconsin, United States) were used to hybridize double stranded cDNA from 87 tissue samples. Repetitive sequence elements found more than five times across all currently available H. erato genomic sequences, including the probed region as well as additional genomic BAC sequences, were masked from the tiling region. The remaining unmasked non-repetitive genomic sequences were tiled using 60 bp probes staggered every 13 bp on average, with slight modifications to ensure probe quality, for a total of 48,547 probes. Microarry design and printing was performed by Roche NimbleGen. cDNA labeling, hybridization, and array scanning was performed by the City of Hope Microarray Facility (Duarte, California, United States). In addition to the probes from the red color pattern intervals, the arrays also include 40,763 probes across two other genomic intervals not addressed in this study, 45,046 probes representing 12450 transcripts from a recent transcriptome assembly at 1-6X coverage, and 3248 random probes. Results from the transcriptome and other color pattern intervals will be published separately, however, we analyzed all probes together for array normalization and quality control.

Project description:Heliconius butterfly wing pattern diversity offers a unique opportunity to investigate how natural genetic variation can drive the evolution of complex adaptive phenotypes. Here we took a large-scale transcriptomic approach to identify the network of genes involved in Heliconius wing pattern development and variation. This included applying 147 microarrays representing the Heliconius transcriptome to assay shifts in gene expression across pupal development among several wing pattern morphs of Heliconius erato. We focused in particular on genes differentially expressed relative to the gene optix, which controls red pattern elements in wings. We combined expression results from three hindwing morphs from Peru and from dissected basal to apical wing elements in two forewing morphs to uncover two main classes of genes. First we looked for candidate upstream regulators of optix by determining transcripts expressed differently across basal to apical sections of the forewing prior to optix expression. Second, we assessed how optix regulates downstream gene expression by targeting transcripts with differential expression similar to optix, where expression differs among red wing pattern elements of both the forewing and hindwing.

Project description:To probe mechanistic determinants of Yki function in mitochondrial biogenesis, we conducted a genome-wide microarray experiment, and specifically compared expression patterns of genes from control (GMR gal4) and Yorkie over-expressing (GMR gal4; UAS yki) pupal eye discs. The above mentioned genotypes were grown at 29 deg C and at about 40 hrs after pupariation, the pupal eye discs were dissected. RNA was extracted from the pupal eye discs, purified and used to generate microarray probes that were hybridized to the Drosophila genome 2 arrays (Affymetrix). The Gene Chip Operating system (Affymetrix) and dCHIP program (Harvard University) were used to generate pairwise comparisons between the transcription profiles of control and Yorkie over-expressing discs.
