Project description:We collected female and male Glossina fuscipes fuscipes from the field (Uganda) and determined the Spiroplasma infections status of each individual. We used RNA-seq to investigate the effects of Spiroplasma on the male and female gene expression in the reproductive tissues. We observed that Spiroplasma infection induces sex-biased expressional changes in genes that encode proteins critical for tsetse`s reproductive success.
Project description:This dataset represents data used to complete genome-wide association (GWA) analysis with field-caught Glossina fuscipes fuscipes using ddRAD-seq to identify autosomal versus sex-chromosomal regions of the genome with data from 96,965 SNPs, and conducted a GWA with a subset of 50,960. autosomal SNPs from 351 flies.
