Project description:We used microarrays and a previously established linkage map to localize the genetic determinants of brain gene expression for a backcross family of lake whitefish species pairs (Coregonus sp.). Our goals were to elucidate the genomic distribution and sex-specificity of brain expression QTL (eQTL) and to determine the extent to which genes controlling transcriptional variation may underlie adaptive divergence in the recently evolved dwarf (limnetic) and normal (benthic) whitefish. We observed a sex-bias in transcriptional genetic architecture, with more eQTL observed in males, as well as divergence in genome location of eQTL between sexes. Hotspots of nonrandom aggregations of up to 32 eQTL in one location were observed. We identified candidate genes for species pair divergence involved with energetic metabolism, protein synthesis, and neural development based on co-localization of eQTL for these genes with eight previously identified adaptive phenotypic QTL and four previously identified outlier loci from a genome scan in natural populations. 88% of eQTL-phenotypic QTL co-localization involved growth rate and condition factor QTL, two traits central to adaptive divergence between whitefish species pairs. Hotspots co-localized with phenotypic QTL in several cases, revealing possible locations where master regulatory genes, such as a zinc finger protein in one case, control gene expression directly related to adaptive phenotypic divergence. We observed little evidence of co-localization of brain eQTL with behavioral QTL, which provides insight on the genes identified by behavioral QTL studies. These results extend to the transcriptome level previous work illustrating that selection has shaped recent parallel divergence between dwarf and normal lake whitefish species pairs and that metabolic, more than morphological differences appear to play a key role in this divergence. Keywords: eQTL mapping, gene expression, linkage mapping, adaptive radiation, Coregonus, microarrays The objective of this study was to elucidate the genomic distribution and sex-specificity of brain eQTL in dwarf and normal lake whitefish. Dissected brain tissue (250-350 mg) was sampled for 55 individuals from a hybrid x dwarf backcross mapping family. We used a loop design (YANG and SPEED 2002; CHURCHILL 2002) to maximize the number of sampled meioses. Each of 55 samples was technically replicated on two distinct slides, while performing dye swapping (Cy3 and Alexa) to estimate the dye intensity variation bias. After correcting for local background, raw intensity values were both log2 transformed and normalized using the regional LOWESS method implemented in the R/MANOVA software (KERR et al. 2000). We used a previously generated linkage map based on the same backcross individuals for which gene expression was measured. eQTL mapping was performed with QTL Cartographer.

Project description:We generated multiple NILs segregating for the 4A-1 QTL following a method based on HIFs analysis. Five F7 RILs from the mapping population were chosen as founders of HIFs on the basis of being heterozygote for the 4A-1 QTL region, while maximizing homozygosity for the background genome (about 97 % homozygosis). From them, five F8 HIFs were obtained by self-pollination and were phenotyped and genotyped. In every HIF, homozygote individuals for the Yitpi allele showed low GI while homozygous for the other alleles showed high GI. Heterozygous individuals showed intermediate GI values in at least four out of the five HIFs. From each HIF, homozygous individuals with contrasting QTL effects were selected and self-pollinated to generate five F9 sets of NILs. Those NILs were finally grown together with the four parent varieties, and grain samples collected at 15, 25 and 35 days post-anthesis (DPA). RNA was isolated from those samples and pooled together in two groups, one containing all samples coming from NILs carrying the QTL (pool A) and the other containing all samples coming from NILs without the QTL (pool B). Samples collected from the four parents at the same DPA were also included in the corresponding RNA pool. This innovative pooling approach allowed us to distinguish a real signal coming from the targeted selected region (segregating equally in each set of NILs) while background noise coming from the rest of the genome is neutralized (different in every set of NILs).

Project description:The source of most errors in RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) read alignment is in the repetitive structure of the genome and not with the alignment algorithm. Genetic variation away from the reference sequence exacerbates this problem causing reads to be assigned to the wrong location. We developed a method, implemented as the software package Seqnature, to construct the imputed genomes of individuals (individualized genomes) of experimental model organisms including inbred mouse strains and genetically unique outbred animals. Alignment to individualized genomes increases read mapping accuracy and improves transcript abundance estimates. In an application to expression QTL mapping, this approach corrected erroneous linkages and unmasked thousands of hidden associations. Individualized genomes accounting for genetic variation will be useful for human short-read sequencing and other sequencing applications including ChIP-seq.

Project description:Adventitious roots (AR) develop from tissues other than the primary root, in a developmental process physiologically regulated by phytohormones. Adventitious roots provide structural support and contribute to water and nutrient absorption, and are critical for commercial vegetative propagation of several crops. Here we quantified the number of AR, root architectural traits and root biomass in cuttings from a pseudo-backcross population of Populus deltoides and Populus trichocarpa. Quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping and whole-transcriptome analysis of individuals carrying alternative QTL alleles for AR number wereas used to identify putative regulatorsregions in the genome that regulateof AR development in the genome., and putative candidate genesregulators.

Project description:In this study, we used correlation analysis of the expression profiles and carcass traits to produce a list of functional candidate genes under the assumption that genes with strong correlation between their expression values and drip belong to pathways or networks relevant for the control of the trait. Expression QTL analyses for transcripts showing trait dependent expression were done in order to identify genes which show trait associated expression. 207 crosbred pig were hybridized to Affymetrix Porcine Genome Arrays.
