Project description:In Apis mellifera, the female eggs can develop into workers or queen depending on the diet offered during early development. The outputs of the developed honeybee females are two morphs with particular morphological traits and related physiology. Among the specialized structures in workers the hind tibia forms the corbicula or the pollen basket, a smooth region surrounded by a row of a long scopal hairs, used for carrying pollen and other materials to the nest. This morphological trait and the respective behaviour are absent in queens. Herein we show details of the initial steps of hind legs morphogenesis in honeybee castes. Using results from the hybridization of whole genome-based oligonucleotide arrays with RNA samples from hind leg imaginal discs of pre-pupa honeybees of both castes we present a list of differentially expressed genes. Analysis used one dye-swap combination to compare workers and queens hind leg development at prepupal stages when juvenile hormone titers is much higher in queens

Project description:Cells were isolated from muscle (hind leg) of Balb/c mouse (male). Then cells were enriched at FACS by using Sca1 antigen. Cells were grown 4 days in NSC medium, passaged and RNA isolated. Cells were at passage 1. Keywords: other

Project description:Along with differences in physiological and behavioral characteristics, workers and queens of Apis mellifera also differ in appendage morphology. Some appendage specializations in the hind legs of honeybee workers, which are highly specialized pollinators, deserve special attention. The hind tibia of the worker has an expanded bristle-free region used for carrying pollen and propolis, the corbicula. In queens, this structure is absent. Although these morphological differences have been well characterized, the genetic inputs triggering the development of this alternative morphology have remained unknown. Through microarray analysis, we detected 1,952 genes that are differentially expressed during worker versus queen hind leg development. The gene expression signatures of the two castes have similar patterns of genes controlling development. At the beginning of the last larval instar, Ultrabithorax (Ubx) activators are more strongly expressed than in prepupae and early pupae; at this time Ubx expression is approximately 25 times higher. Within the gene expression signature, we identified a cluster formed by genes in which Ubx, Twist and Zeste binding sites are over-represented. This cluster includes genes for which Drosophila orthologs are known to be bound by Ubx, as in the case of lola. We also tested the extent of Ubx mRNA processing during wing and leg development.
