Project description:The long-term viability of Pacific salmon stocks and the fisheries they support are threatened if large numbers die prematurely en-route to spawning grounds. Physiological profiles that were correlated with the fate of wild sockeye salmon during river migration were discovered using functional genomics studies on biopsied tissues. Three independent biotelemetry studies tracked the biopsied fish after tagging in the marine environment over 200 km from the Fraser River, in the lower river 69 km from the river mouth and at the spawning grounds. Salmon carrying the poor performance (unhealthy) profile in the ocean exhibited a 4-times lower probability of arriving to spawning grounds than those with a healthy genomic signature, although generally migrated into the river and to the spawning grounds faster. A related unhealthy signature observed in the river was associated with a 30% reduction in survival to spawning grounds in one of the three stocks tested. At spawning grounds, the same poor performance signature was associated with twice the pre-spawning mortality compared with healthy fish. Functional analysis revealed that the unhealthy signature, which intensified during migration to spawning grounds, was consistent with an intracellular pathogenic infection, likely a virus. These results are the first to suggest a pathogen present in salmon in the marine environment could be a major source of mortality during migration and spawning in the river. This series are gill expression profiles from the study of fish sampled and tagged in the lower river and tracked as they swam towards the spawning grounds.

Project description:Xiangjiang River (Hunan, China) has been contaminated with heavy metal for several decades by surrounding factories. However, little is known about the influence of a gradient of heavy metal contamination on the diversity, structure of microbial functional gene in sediment. To deeply understand the impact of heavy metal contamination on microbial community, a comprehensive functional gene array (GeoChip 5.0) has been used to study the functional genes structure, composition, diversity and metabolic potential of microbial community from three heavy metal polluted sites of Xiangjiang River.

Project description:The zebra mussel is present in Spain since early 2000,s, when it was discovered in the lower part of the Ebro river. To study the gene expression pattern of different populations of zebra mussel a long the Ebro River we use a custom microarray developed in our laboratory, using 4057 publicly available DNA sequences from Dreissena polymorpha and other related genera. Also it was used an external sampling site located in Sitjar Dam, about 200km form the Ebro river. Transcriptome profiles were analysed using the gills of individuals collected in the same period (20-23 March) to diminish seasonal effects. A total of 755 transcripts changed significantly their mRNA levels among the sites of the study (ANOVA p<0.01, fc ±1.5). Genes encoding for xenobiotic, energetic and calcium metabolism and cell proliferation were those showing the highest differences among populations. Geographical origin appeared as the major driver of the differences among the studied populations, as the transcriptomic profiles from four populations collected within a radius of few km around the Flix factory clustered together and separated from those from other distant populations both upstream the Ebro River or in the Sitjar dam.
