Project description:Demosponge Cinachyrella cf cavernosa is an inter-tidal sponge. It is found in competition with soft coral Zoanthus sansibaricus and macroalgae Dictyota ciliatum. The effect of these two spatial competitors on the gene expression profile of the sponge is checked. Sponges are collected from three distinct situations, 1. sponge without competitors, 2. sponge in competition with algae, and 3. sponge in competition with soft coral. Each group has three biological replicates.
Project description:The variability of the marine intertidal environment poses unique challenges for sessile species. Diurnal, tidal, and seasonal cycles introduce drastic variations in temperature, salinity, availability of nutrients and water. The California ribbed mussel Mytilus californianus is a filter feeder that dominates a middle range of the intertidal of many wave-swept rocky shores. The bivalve attaches to the substrate by several byssal threads. This sessile lifestyle allows us to accurately document the thermal history of an individual. We have profiled gene expression in M. californianus during a natural tidal cycle using a cDNA microarray composed of genes from mussels exposed to various stressors. Over three days, mussels were sampled from two sites differing in emersion exposure and average temperature. At each time point, three mussels were cut open in the field and frozen immediately on dry ice and stored at -80 degrees C until the gill, hepatopancreas, and adductor muscle were excised and processed for RNA extraction, reverse transcription, and hybridization to our microarrays. The resulting expression profile showed that genes involved in the cell cycle were diurnally regulated, heat shock proteins increased with temperature, and expression of several hundred other genes varied across the tidal cycle.
