Project description:Seasonal photoperiodic changes have strong impact on development in Nasonia vitripennis. Here, Using high-throughput Reduced Representation Bisulfite Sequencing (RRBS) and single-molecule-based sequencing, we generated DNA methylation maps of female wasps maintained in long vs short day. We have identified differential methylated loci that encode the photoperiodic change. analysis of DNA methylation in female wasps maintained in long vs short day, using RRBS followed by Illumina sequencing

Project description:Parasitoid wasps of the species Diachasmimorpha longicaudata are associated with a heritable poxvirus, known as DlEPV, that is stored in the venom gland of adult female wasps and transferred to tephritid fly hosts of the wasps during oviposition. We conducted a RNA-seq differential expression analysis to gain insight on how DlEPV can replicate in both wasps and their fly hosts but only cause pathogenic effects during replication in flies. Our analysis revealed that 91.2% (176 of 193) of DlEPV genes showed significant differential expression during peak virus replication in wasp venom glands compared to parasitized flies. Over 80% of DlEPV replication genes were significantly upregulated in wasps, while 79% of DlEPV putative virulence genes were significantly upregulated in fly hosts. These data therefore support a dichotomy of viral function, where virus replication is promoted in wasp tissue and virulence in host tissue. Such a division of viral activity could represent an important adaptation to maintain a stable symbiosis between this virus and its associated parasitoid.

Project description:Upon pathogenic infection, drosophila larval host mounts an immune response. Parasitic wasps inject venom that contain virulence factors during oviposition, which can elicit host immune response, and in some cases, suppress host immune responses altogether. Several microarray experiments have been performed on different classes of parasitic wasps. We wanted to compare how Ganaspis xanthopoda-infected hosts respond compared to other classes of parasitic wasps.

Several microarray experiments have been performed on different classes of parasitic wasps. We wanted to compare how Ganaspis xanthopoda-infected hosts respond compared to other classes of parasitic wasps. Third instar y w larvae from a 2-day egglay were infected with G. xanthopoda for three and six hours, respectively, by introducing waps in petri-dish containing larvae. Controls were handled side-by-side without introducing wasps. Host larvae were immediately dissected, infection confirmed by presence of wasp egg, and frozen in liquid nitrogen and ground in Trizol. RNA was isolated and checked by agarose gel-electrophoresis. Samples were then sent to the Microarray Core Facility at Weill Cornell Medical College.

Project description:Diachasmimorpha longicaudata parasitoid wasps carry a symbiotic poxvirus, known as DlEPV, within the female wasp venom gland. We sequenced RNA from venom gland tissue to identify DlEPV orthologs for 3 conserved poxvirus core genes. The DlEPV ORFs identified from this transcriptome were used to design primers for downstream RT-qPCR analysis and RNAi knockdown experiments.

Project description:Goal: Natural populations of Drosophila melanogaster vary widely in their capacity to resist infection by the parasitic wasp Leptopilina boulardi. To date, little is known about the genetic, cellular and molecular basis underpinning the variation in susceptibility to parasitic wasps. In D.melanogaster populations artificially selected for parasitoid resistance, an increase in the number of circulating hemocytes (blood cells) is observed. One possibility is that this is accompanied by changes in hemocyte activation state, resulting in a successful defence response when exposed to parasitic wasps. We tested this possibility by generating populations that are highly resistant and highly susceptible to the parasitic wasps. We generated these populations after 26 generations of experimental evolution, starting from a single interbred wild caught population. Here, we study how selection for resistance to the parasitic wasp L. boulardi changes the number and type of circulating hemocytes in D. melanogaster larvae using scRNA-seq. Methods: Wild caught D. melanogaster females were collected from Cambridge, UK, to establish an outbreed population. From this, three replicated populations were selected for resistance to L. boulardi strain NSRef for 26 generations (Selection). Another three populations were maintained in the laboratory for 26 generations without being exposed to parasitoid-associated selection pressures (No Selection). At generation 26, second instar D. melanogaster larvae (48-63 hours after fertilization) from each population were infected with L. boulardi for three hours (Infection) or maintained without infection (No infection). 48 hours after, circulating hemocytes from third instar D. melanogaster larvae (96-111 hours after fertilization) from each population were collected in PBS and cleaned in OptiPrep solution (1.09g/ml). 10X Single Cell GEX v2 libraries were prepared and sequenced. CellRanger v2 was used to generate sample cell count matrices. Seurat v3 was used to integrate, normalise and cluster the cell types. Results: We identified novel plasmatocyte cell types, immature and mature lamellocytes and crystal cells. We identify a single lineage of cellular differentiation starting from a self-cycling plasmatocyte population, enriched for genes involved in extracellular matrix organisation, and ending in a mature lamellocyte population that has enriched expression of genes involved in signalling, hemostasis and gluconeogenesis. Immature lamellocytes were overrepresented in populations selected for resistance to parasitoids. Infection with parasitoid resulted in an increase in both immature and mature lamellocytes in circulation. Conclusions: Selection for resistance to the parasitic wasps resulted in the constitutive activation of the D. melanogaster immune system, where plasmatocytes differentiate into immature lamellocytes even where they are not exposed to parasitic wasps. We speculate these constitutive changes assist in mounting a successful defence response when exposed to parasitic wasps.
