Project description:Oak galls form when gall wasps lay their eggs into part of the tree; in some galls, this attachment point to the host consists of only a few cells. The gall itself comprises entirely of host tissue; however, the initiation, development, and physical appearance are controlled by the inducer. This raises the intriguing question of the molecular mechanisms underlying gall formation, by which one or a small number of cells are reprogrammed and commit to a novel developmental path. Gall wasps undergo two generations each year, and the galls formed by these two generations exhibit markedly different appearances. We sequenced the transcriptomes of both the sexual and asexual generations of Neuropterus quercusbaccarum and Neuroterus numismalis. The transcriptomes of the generations that occur at the same time of year are more similar to each other than they are to the opposite generation of their respective species.

Project description:We used RNA sequencing to examine the transcriptomes of male and female heads from experimentally-evolved D. melanogaster populations after 117 generations of mating system manipulation in order to examine the pattern of evolution in sex-biased genes. Examined head transcriptomes of 3 monogamous populations and 3 polygamous populations, both males and females, for 12 total samples.
