Project description:This study aimed at measuring transcriptome-wide gene expression in four populations of the copepod T. californicus. Populations were exposed to two different thermal regime, a variable 20-28 degree and a constant 20 degree followed by a one-time stress at 28 degrees. RNA was extracted at 20 and 28 degrees for all populations from all thermal regimes. Transcriptome-wide gene expression was measured, and differentially expressed genes were determined for all populations for the different temperature combinations. The results show that each populations responds to the changes in temperature in a drastically different manner (in terms of gene expression), which can have implications regarding the way these and other organisms will respond to climate change. Two southern and two northern populations of Tigriopus californicus were exposed to a variable 20-28 degree and a constant 20 degree followed by a one-time stress at 28 degrees. RNA was extracted at 20 and 28 degrees for all populations from all thermal regimes. mRNA profiles were generated by 100bp single end sequencing in the Illumina HiSeq 2000 and 2500, with one replicate per population per treatment.

Project description:Here, we investigate the genetic mechanisms that underlie thermal specialization of closely-related vibrios isolated from coastal water at the Beaufort Inlet (Beaufort, NC, USA). This location experiences large seasonal temperature fluctuations (annual range of ~20°C), and a clear seasonal shift in vibrio diversity has been observed (Yung et al. 2015). This previous study suggested that the mechanisms of thermal adaptation apparently differ based on evolutionary timescale: shifts in the temperature of maximal growth occur between deeply branching clades but the shape of the thermal performance curve changes on shorter time scales (Yung et al. 2015). The observed thermal specialization in vibrio populations over relatively short evolutionary time scales indicates that few genes or cellular processes may contribute to the differences in thermal performance between populations. In order to understand the molecular mechanisms that underlie adaptation to local thermal regimes in environmental vibrio populations, we employ genomic and transcriptomic approaches to examine transcriptomic changes that occur within strains grown at their thermal optima and under heat and cold stress. Moreover, we compare two closely-related strains with different laboratory thermal preferences to identify in situ evolutionary responses to different thermal environments in genome content and alleles as well as gene expression.

Project description:Southern California (USA) populations of the intertidal marine snail Chlorostoma (formerly Tegula) funebralis are generally exposed to higher air and water temperatures than northern California populations. Previous studies have shown that southern populations are more tolerant of heat stress than northern populations. To assess the potential role of gene regulation in these regional differences, we examined transcriptome responses to thermal stress in two southern and two northern populations of C. funebralis. Snails from the four populations were acclimated to a common lab environment, exposed to a heat stress representative of natural low tide conditions, and then analyzed using RNA-Seq to characterize changes in gene expression associated with stress and differences in expression across geographic regions. Changes in expression following stress were dominated by genes involved in apoptosis, the inflammatory response, response to mis and unfolded proteins, and ubiquitination of proteins. Heat shock proteins (Hsps) were up-regulated in both northern and southern populations. However, while the magnitude of the response was significantly greater in northern populations for the majority of Hsp70s, the southern populations showed a greater up-regulation for roughly half of the Hsp40s, which are co-chaperones for Hsp70s. Differential expression analysis of the control versus treatment genes in the northern and southern populations respectively revealed that 56 genes, many involved in the inflammation and immune response, responded to heat stress only in the northern populations. Moreover, several of the molecular chaperones and antioxidant genes that were not differentially expressed in the southern populations instead showed higher constitutive expression under control conditions compared to the northern populations. The expression levels of some of these constitutive genes such as superoxide dismutase were also found to positively correlate with survival following heat stress. This suggests that expression of these genes has evolved a degree of “frontloading” that may contribute to the higher thermal tolerance of southern populations.

Project description:Background: Geographic variation in the thermal environment impacts a broad range of biochemical and physiological processes and can be a major selective force leading to local population adaptation. In the intertidal copepod Tigriopus californicus, populations along the coast of California show differences in thermal tolerance that are consistent with adaptation, i.e., southern populations withstand thermal stresses that are lethal to northern populations. To understand the genetic basis of these physiological differences, we use an RNA-seq approach to compare genome-wide patterns of gene expression in two populations known to differ in thermal tolerance. Results: Observed differences in gene expression between the southern (San Diego) and the northern (Santa Cruz) populations included both the number of affected loci as well as the identity of these loci. However, the most pronounced differences concerned the amplitude of up-regulation of genes producing heat shock proteins (Hsps) and genes involved in ubiquitination and proteolysis. Cuticle genes were up-regulated in SD but down-regulated in SC, and mitochondrial genes were downregulated in both populations. Among the hsp genes, orthologous pairs show markedly different thermal responses as the amplitude of hsp response was greatly elevated in the San Diego population, most notably in members of the hsp70 gene family. There was no evidence of accelerated evolution at the sequence level for hsp genes. Conclusions: Marked changes in gene expression were observed in response to acute sublethal thermal stress in the copepod T. californicus. Although some qualitative differences were observed between populations (e.g., cuticle gene regulation), the most pronounced differences involved the magnitude of induction of numerous hsp and ubiquitin genes. These differences in gene expression suggest that evolutionary divergence in the regulatory pathway(s) involved in acute temperature stress may offer at least a partial explanation of latitudinal trends in thermal tolerance observed in Tigriopus.

Project description:Effective coral conservation depends on understanding how stress impacts reef biology and health. Coral bleaching varies widely across individuals, yet its dependence on the genetic background of coral animals is poorly understood. Given this knowledge gap, we strove to identify genotype-independent metabolite markers of stress in two Hawaiian coral species, Montipora capitata and Pocillopora acuta. After exposure to thermal and pH stress, we used untargeted metabolomic profiling to investigate the physiological response of different coral genotypes (and ploidies) of each species. Our previous studies showed that dipeptides correlate with stress, and we found these metabolites showed a consistent response across different genotypes and ploidies. We further explored dark metabolites that are stress-responsive, and our tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS2) results suggest that these candidates are larger tri- and tetrapeptides. Our results identify short peptides as critical intermediates in the coral stress response which provide diagnostic biomarkers for field applications.

Project description:A mutualistic relationship between reef-building corals and endosymbiotic algae (Symbiodinium spp.) forms the basis for the existence of coral reefs. Genotyping tools for Symbiodinium spp. have added a new level of complexity to studies concerning cnidarian growth, nutrient acquisition, and stress. For example, the response of the coral holobiont to thermal stress is connected to the host-Symbiodinium genotypic combination, as different partnerships can have different bleaching susceptibilities. If, and to what extent, differences in algal symbiont clade contents can exert effects on the coral host transcriptome is currently unknown. In this study, we monitored algal physiological parameters and profiled the coral host transcriptional responses in acclimated, thermally stressed, and recovered coral fragments using a custom cDNA gene expression microarray. Combining these analyses with results from algal and host genotyping revealed a striking symbiont effect on both the acclimated coral host transcriptome and the magnitude of the thermal stress response. This is the first study that links coral host transcriptomic patterns to the clade content of their algal symbiont community. Our data provide a critical step to elucidating the molecular basis of the apparent variability seen among different coral-algal partnerships.
