Project description:To revisit and address four major unresolved issues regarding prehistory, especially the Neolithic history of Sherpas and Tibetans and their hypoxic adaptation: (i) whether they are two genetically different ethnic groups; (ii) whether population substructures exist in either of the two groups; (iii) how long they have diverged from their ancestral group and when the two separated groups started to re-contact by population admixture; and (iv) whether the two groups share major high-altitude adaptation mechanisms. The careful and systematical analysis of these newly sequenced genomes, together with available genotyping data can provide further insight into the genetic origins of Sherpas and Tibetans and uncover their different adaptive mechanisms.

Project description:Despite the progress achieved in elucidating the ecological mechanisms of adaptive radiation, there has been little focus on documenting the extent of adaptive differentiation in physiological functions during this process. Moreover, a thorough understanding of the genomic basis underlying phenotypic adaptive divergence is still in its infancy. One important evolutionary process for which causal genetic mechanisms are largely unknown pertains to life-history trade-offs. We analysed patterns of gene transcription in liver tissue of sympatric dwarf and normal whitefish from two natural lakes, as well as from populations reared in controlled environments, using a 16 006-gene cDNA microarray in order to: (i) document the extent of physiological adaptive divergence between sympatric dwarf and normal species pairs, and (ii) explore the molecular mechanisms of differential life history trade-offs between growth and survival potentially involved in their adaptive divergence. In the two natural lakes, 6.45% of significantly transcribed genes showed regulation either in parallel fashion (2.39%) or in different directions (4.06%). Among genes showing parallelism in regulation patterns, we observed a higher proportion of over-expressed genes in dwarf relative to normal whitefish (70.6%). Patterns observed in controlled conditions were also generally congruent with those observed in natural populations. Dwarf whitefish consistently showed significant over-expression of genes potentially associated with survival through enhanced activity (energy metabolism, iron homeostasis, lipid metabolism, detoxification), whereas more genes associated with growth (protein synthesis, cell cycle, cell growth) were generally down-regulated in dwarf relative to normal whitefish. Overall, parallelism in patterns of gene transcription, as well as patterns of interindividual variation across controlled and natural environments, provide strong indirect evidence for the role of selection in the evolution of differential regulation of genes involving a vast array of potentially adaptive physiological processes between dwarf and normal whitefish. Our results also provide a first mechanistic, genomic basis for the observed trade-off in life-history traits distinguishing dwarf and normal whitefish species pairs, wherein enhanced survival via more active swimming, necessary for increased foraging and predator avoidance, engages energetic costs that translate into slower growth rate and reduced fecundity in dwarf relative to normal whitefish.

Integrating life history and
cross-immunity into the evolutionary dynamics of pathogens.

Abstract:
Models for the diversity and evolution of pathogens have
branched into two main directions: the adaptive dynamics of
quantitative life-history traits (notably virulence) and the
maintenance and invasion of multiple, antigenically diverse
strains that interact with the host's immune memory. In a first
attempt to reconcile these two approaches, we developed a
simple modelling framework where two strains of pathogens,
defined by a pair of life-history traits (infectious period and
infectivity), interfere through a given level of
cross-immunity. We used whooping cough as a potential example,
but the framework proposed here could be applied to other acute
infectious diseases. Specifically, we analysed the effects of
these parameters on the invasion dynamics of one strain into a
population, where the second strain is endemic. Whereas the
deterministic version of the model converges towards stable
coexistence of the two strains in most cases, stochastic
simulations showed that transient epidemic dynamics can cause
the extinction of either strain. Thus ecological dynamics,
modulated by the immune parameters, eventually determine the
adaptive value of different pathogen genotypes. We advocate an
integrative view of pathogen dynamics at the crossroads of
immunology, epidemiology and evolution, as a way towards
efficient control of infectious diseases.
This
version of the model can be used for both the stochastic and the
deterministic simulations described in the article. For
deterministic interpretations with infinite population sizes, set
the population size
N = 1. The model reproduces the deterministic time
courses. Stochastic interpretation with Copasi UI gave results
similar to the article, but was not extensively tested. The
initial conditions for competition simulations can be derived by
equilibrating the system for one pathogen and then adding a
starting concentration for the other.
