Project description:Full reciprocal transfer of microbiomes between nine host strains of phytoplankton and microbe-free controls (Kuijpers et al unpublished). Microbiomes were naturally recruited from lake and stream water in an assembly experiment (Broe et al unpublished). Transferred microbiomes were added to axenic hosts and grown for 7 or 14 days before control or heat shock treatment.

Project description:To study the underlying molecular mechanisms during the Varroa destructor life cycle, we carried out transcriptomic profiling of seven stages: young mites (collected from P8 to P9 brood cells), phoretic mites (collected on adult bees), arresting mites (collected in unsealed L5 brood cells), pre-laying mites (collected from sealed brood cells containing moving larva), laying mites (collected from sealed brood cells containing pre-pupae), post-laying mites (collected from capped brood cells containing purple-eye and white-body pupae P5), emerging mites (collected from P8 to P9 brood cells). In addition, we sampled non-reproducing mites (collected from P5 brood cells, but without offspring), males (collected from P8 to P9 brood cells), and phoretic mites artificially reared in cages with adult bees. This study was performed using Apis mellifera L. honey bee colonies naturally infested by Varroa destructor mites. Adult mites were collected from 4 unrelated colonies.

Project description:Mobile small RNAs are an integral component of the arms race between plants and fungal parasites, and several studies suggest microRNAs could similarly operate between parasitic nematodes and their animal hosts. However, whether and how specific sequences are selected for export by parasites is unknown. Here we describe a specific Argonaute protein (exWAGO) that is secreted in extracellular vesicles (EVs) released by the gastrointestinal nematode Heligmosomodies bakeri, at multiple copies per EV. Phylogenetic and gene expression analyses demonstrate exWAGO is highly conserved and abundantly expressed in related parasites, including the human hookworm and proteomic analyses confirm this is the only Argonaute secreted by rodent parasites. In contrast, exWAGO orthologues in species from the free-living genus Caenorhabditis are highly diverged. By sequencing multiple small RNA libraries, we determined that the most abundant small RNAs released from the nematode parasite are not microRNAs but rather secondary small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) that are produced by RNA-dependent RNA Polymerases. We further identify distinct evolutionary properties of the siRNAs resident in free-living or parasitic nematodes versus those exported in EVs by the parasite and show that the latter are specifically associated with exWAGO. Together this work identifies an Argonaute protein as a mediator of RNA export and suggests rhabditomorph nematode parasites may have co-opted a novel nematode-unique pathway to communicate with their hosts.

Project description:To complete their life cycle, a wide range of parasites must manipulate the behavior of their hosts. This manipulation is a well-known example of the “extended phenotype,” where genes in one organism have phenotypic effects on another organism. Recent studies have explored the parasite genes responsible for such manipulation of host behavior, including the potential molecular mechanisms. However, little is known about how parasites have acquired the genes involved in manipulating phylogenetically distinct hosts. In a fascinating example of the extended phenotype, nematomorph parasites have evolved the ability to induce their terrestrial insect hosts to enter bodies of water, where the parasite then reproduces. Here, we comprehensively analyzed nematomorphs and their mantid hosts, focusing on the transcriptomic changes associated with host manipulations and sequence similarity between host and parasite genes to test molecular mimicry. The nematomorph’s transcriptome changed during host manipulation, whereas no distinct changes were found in mantids. We then discovered numerous possible host-derived genes in nematomorphs, and these genes were frequently up-regulated during host manipulation. Our findings suggest a possible general role of horizontal gene transfer (HGT) in the molecular mechanisms of host manipulation, as well as in the genome evolution of manipulative parasites. The evidence of HGT between multicellular eukaryotes remains scarce but is increasing and, therefore, elucidating its mechanisms will advance our understanding of the enduring influence of HGT on the evolution of the web of life.

Project description:Plasmodium falciparum parasites alternate between two different obligate hosts during their life cycle: humans and Anopheles mosquitoes. During the blood stage in the human host they proliferate asexually inside erythrocytes. A small proportion of parasites develops into male and female gametocytes, which enter the sexual part of the life cycle once taken up by a mosquito. The production of male and female gametocytes is therefore critical for malaria transmission. It has been shown that epigenetic processes play a role in this differentiation processes, however, the exact mechanisms remain unknown. To gain insight into these processes, we separated male and female gametocytes, based on the female specific expression of an endogenously GFP-tagged ABCG2 gene, using flow cytometry (male parasites as GFP low, female parasites as GFP high population). We subsequently performed ChIP-Seq for several histone variants and modifications (H2A.Z, H2A.Zac, H2B.Z, H3K4me3, H3R17me2, H3K27ac, H3K9me3) on day 6 of gametocytogenesis. Our study reveals a global remodelling of the chromatin landscape in gametocytes compared to asexual parasites, as well as sex specific differences.
