Project description:Species often produce sterile hybrids early in their evolutionary divergence, and some evidence suggests that hybrid sterility may be associated with deviations or disruptions in gene expression. In support of this idea, many studies have shown that a high proportion of male-biased genes are underexpressed compared to non-sex-biased genes in sterile F1 male hybrids of Drosophila species. In this study, we examined and compared patterns of misexpression in F1 hybrid male third instar larvae of Drosophila simulans and its sibling species, D. sechellia. We analyzed hybrids using custom cDNA arrays we developed from RT-PCRs of spermatogenesis-related transcripts from these species and another sibling species (D. mauritiana). The results from a commercial genome-wide array and custom chip for adults of this species pair, from the custom chip and the genome-wide chip for adults of the D. simulans-D. mauritiana species pair, and from the larvae of the D. simulans-D. mauritiana species pair, are presented separately.

In support of this idea, many studies have shown that a high proportion of male-biased genes are underexpressed compared to non-sex-biased genes in sterile F1 male hybrids of Drosophila species. In this study, we examined and compared patterns of misexpression in 4 day old sterile male F1 hybrids of Drosophila simulans and its sibling species, D. sechellia. We analyzed hybrids using custom cDNA arrays we developed from RT-PCRs of spermatogenesis-related transcripts from these species and another sibling species (D. mauritiana). The results from a commercial genome-wide array for this species pair, from the custom chip and the genome-wide chip for the D. simulans-D. mauritiana species pair, and from the larvae of these two species pairs using the custom chip, is presented separately.

Project description:Males hybrids from the crosses between species of the D. simulans clade are steriles as the females are fertiles. Hybrid male sterility is due to severe defects in spermatogenesis and phenotypic differences are observed between the different hybrids involving D. simulans, D. sechellia and D. mauritiana. In this study we are comparing gene expression in the testes of hybrids involving the female D. simulans and the males D. melanogaster, D. mauritiana, or D. sechellia to the gene expression in species testes. Keywords: Comparative genomic hybridization 4 species (D. melanogaster, D. simulans, D. sechellia, D. mauritiana) and 3 different hybrids were used in this study. RNA extracted from whole D. melanogaster males was used as a reference. Hybridizations were perfomed using RNA extraxted from a pool of 200 testes from a sample with RNA extracted from whole D. melanogaster males. At least three independent replicates per hybridizations were performed

Project description:These arrays measure gene expression across eight Y introgression lines in Drosophila simulans. Four lines (Ya19, Ya23, Ya24, Ya26) carry a D. simulans Y chromosome (from a Cameroon population) and four lines (Sec01, Sec03, Sec08, Sec27) carry a D. sechellia Y chromosome. All lines are otherwise identical with a D. simulans background (UCSD stock center line 14021-0251.092).

Project description:In order to test the hypothesis that adult hybrid misexpression results from the cascading effect of earlier-expressed developmentally important improperly regulated genes, as well as address whether Von Baer’s 3rd law (suggesting that earlier stages of development should be more similar between species than later stages) holds at the level of gene expression, we conducted whole-transcriptome Drosophila melanogaster cDNA microarray-based expression profiling of males of D. melanogaster, D. sechellia, and D. simulans, at four synchronized developmental time-points (3rd instar larval [larval], early pupal, late pupal, and newly-emerged adult [adult]). D. simulans and D. sechellia shared a most recent common ancestor (MRCA) ~0.5 to 1.0 million years ago (MYA) and form a clade that shared an MRCA with D. melanogaster approximately 5.4 MYA. In addition, we also performed the same analysis on the male interspecific F1 hybrids of the D. simulans (♀) × D. sechellia (♂) cross.
