SOX10 regulates multiple genes to direct eumelanin vs. pheomelanin production in domestic rock pigeon

Project description:The domesticated rock pigeon (Columba livia) has been bred for hundreds of years to display an immense variety of ornamental attributes such as feather color and color patterns. Color is influenced by multiple loci that impact the type and amount of melanin deposited on the feathers. Pigeons homozygous for the “recessive red” mutation, which causes downregulation of Sox10, display brilliant red feathers instead of blue/black feathers. Sox10 encodes a transcription factor important for melanocyte differentiation and function, but the genes that mediate its promotion of black vs. red pigment are unknown. Here, we present a transcriptomic comparison of regenerating feathers from wild-type and recessive red pigeons to identify candidate SOX10 targets. Our results identify both known and novel targets, including many genes not previously implicated in pigmentation. These data highlight the value of using novel, emerging model organisms to gain insight into the genetic basis of pigment variation.

Investigating genome occupancy of SOX10 in avian melanocytes

Project description:Domestic rock pigeons (Columba livia) homozygous for either of two “recessive red” mutations, which are partially-overlapping deletions causing downregulation of Sox10, display brilliant red colors instead of blue/black feathers. Sox10 encodes a transcription factor important for melanocyte differentiation and function, but the precise role that it plays in promoting eumelanin over pheomelanin pigment production in pigeons are unknown. In this study, we perform ChIPseq for SOX10, H3K27ac, and H3K27me3 to better understand the genome occupancy of SOX10 in avian melanocytes.

MicroRNA expression profiles in livers during pigeon (Columba livia) development

Project description:A comparative profile of miRNAs in livers during pigeon development was performed by using high-throughput sequencing. We identified known pigeon miRNAs, novel miRNAs, and miRNAs that are conserved in other birds and mammals.Our results expanded the repertoire of pigeon miRNAs and may be of help in better understanding the mechanism of squab’s rapid development from the perspective of liver development.

Divergence, convergence, and the ancestry of feral populations in the domestic rock pigeon.

Project description:Domestic pigeons are spectacularly diverse and exhibit variation in more traits than any other bird species [1]. In The Origin of Species, Charles Darwin repeatedly calls attention to the striking variation among domestic pigeon breeds-generated by thousands of years of artificial selection on a single species by human breeders-as a model for the process of natural divergence among wild populations and species [2]. Darwin proposed a morphology-based classification of domestic pigeon breeds [3], but the relationships among major groups of breeds and their geographic origins remain poorly understood [4, 5]. We used a large, geographically diverse sample of 361 individuals from 70 domestic pigeon breeds and two free-living populations to determine genetic relationships within this species. We found unexpected relationships among phenotypically divergent breeds as well as convergent evolution of derived traits among several breed groups. Our findings also illuminate the geographic origins of breed groups in India and the Middle East and suggest that racing breeds have made substantial contributions to feral pigeon populations.
