Gene regulation linked to plasticity in queen weight and behavior reveals candidates for supergene-mediated genetic accommodation in the fire ant

Project description:In the fire ant Solenopsis invicta, a chromosomal inversion-derived supergene predicts gyne (pre-reproductive queen) weight and corresponding colony founding behavior. Inversion-carrying gynes are lightweight and depend on assistance from workers, meaning they must initiate reproduction in an already existing social group. Gynes that lack the inversion supergene are heavier and found colonies from scratch, relying on their own nutrient reserves to feed an initial brood. However, plasticity in gyne weight and life history also exists in fire ants, such as queen replacement, an alternative mode of dependent reproduction determined by gyne overwintering status. Like inversion-carrying gynes, overwintered gynes without the inversion supergene exhibit a lightweight phenotype and worker dependence. In gyne brains and ovaries, we compared transcriptional profiles of overwintered and non-overwintered gynes to reveal the gene regulatory changes associated with overwintering. We observed functional enrichment for several biological processes related to metabolism and behavior among these plasticity-associated differentially expressed genes. A comparison to genes differentially expressed by supergene genotype revealed significantly greater overlap than expected by chance in ovarian tissues. Moreover, some plasticity-associated genes were found to exhibit fixed allelic differences between inverted and non-inverted supergene variants that may contribute to observed differences in gene expression and physiology. Overall, our results are consistent with the hypothesis that a supergene modulates variation in social organization, in part, through increased genetic regulation of ancestrally plastic traits.

Comparison of fire ant adult queens with different supergene genotypes (SB/SB and SB/Sb) and different age classes (1-day-old virgins, 11-day-old virgins and reproductive queens) from 2008 and 2009

Project description:In the fire ant Solenopsis invicta, a colony queen number is determined by the founding queen's genotypes at the 13 Mb supergene with the non-recombining variants SB and Sb. Single-queen colonies are always headed by SB/SB queens while multiple-queens colonies are always headed by SB/Sb queens. The two variants of the supergene, SB and Sb are completely linked to the two alleles (B and b) of the gene Gp-9. SB/SB and SB/Sb queens differ in many physiological traits including their maturation rate and odor. To explain why SB/SB and SB/Sb queens have different odors, and why SB/SB virgins mature faster and accumulate more fat, we measured expression of ~6000 genes in virgin queens 1 and 11 days after eclosion and in reproductive queens. Keywords: fire ants, Solenopsis invicta, Supergene, queen, Gp-9, social form, maturation, fat storage, queen odor, cuticular hydrocarbon, worker discrimination, monogyne, polygyne, transposon, chemical signaling Six-condition experiment: 1-day-old SB/SB virgins, 1-day-old SB/Sb virgins, 11-day-old SB/SB virgins, 11-day-old SB/Sb virgins, SB/SB reproductive queens, SB/Sb reproductive queens. Biological replicates: 8 for 1-day-old SB/SB virgins and 1-day-old SB/Sb virgins that were collected in 2008; 8 for 1-day-old SB/SB virgins, 1-day-old SB/Sb virgins that were collected in 2009; 7 for 11-day-old SB/SB virgins and 11-day-old SB/Sb virgins that were collected in 2008; 8 for 11-day-old SB/SB virgins and 11-day-old SB/Sb virgins that were collected in 2009; 8 for SB/SB and SB/Sb reproductive queens (only collected in 2009). Samples were labeled with Cy3 and were compared to the same common reference RNA labeled with Cy5. Samples from 2008 were hybridized on the microarrays batch I and samples from 2009 were hybridized on the microarrays batch J.
