Project description:Chromatin immunoprecipitation analysis of CENH3 in the Arabidopsis thaliana accessions Col-0, Ler-0, Cvi-0 and Tanz-1 was performed in order to align reads to PacBio HiFi genome assemblies which contain complete centromere repeat arrays.
Project description:Amphibian populations around the world are threatened by an emerging infectious pathogen, the chytrid fungus Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd). How can a fungal skin infection kill such a broad range of amphibian hosts? And why are certain species particularly susceptible to the impacts of Bd? Here we use a genomics approach to understand the genetic response of multiple susceptible frog species to Bd infection. We characterize the transcriptomes of two closely-related endangered frog species (Rana muscosa and Rana sierrae) and analyze whole genome expression profiles from frogs in controlled Bd-infection experiments. We integrate the Rana results with a comparable dataset from a more distantly-related susceptible species (Silurana tropicalis). We demonstrate that Bd-infected frogs show massive disruption of skin function and show no evidence of a robust immune response. The genetic response to infection is shared across the focal susceptible species, suggesting a common effect of Bd on susceptible frogs.

Project description:Dikaryotic rust fungi maintain two distinct haploid nuclei for most of their life cycle, making their large, repeat-rich genomes difficult to assemble and phase. Here we present haplotype-phased, near chromosome-scale genome assemblies for the poplar rust pathogens Melampsora larici-populina 98AG31 and Melampsora allii-populina 12AY07, generated using PacBio HiFi sequencing and Hi-C-guided scaffolding. For each species, we resolve 18 chromosomes per haplotype, providing the first chromosome-level representations of poplar rust fungal species. M. larici-populina diploid assembly spans ~203 Mb, while M. allii-populina reaches ~416 Mb, with high completeness and strong collinearity between haplotypes.
