Project description:Comparative genomic hybridisation of genomic DNA from avian species to the Roche NimbleGen chicken whole genome oligonucleotide array. The purpose was to identify copy number variants between the given species and chicken. The starting material was blood or feather pulp from a variety of bird species, from which we performed DNA extractions.

Project description:Here we show that Drosophila sechelliaâa specialist on the fruit of Morinda citrifolia that recently diverged from its generalist sister-species, D. simulansâhas rapidly accumulated loss-of-function alleles and reduced gene expression at genes affecting olfaction, detoxification, and metabolism. While D. sechellia increases expression of genes involved with oogenesis and fatty acid metabolism when on its host, many more genes show reduced expression in D. sechellia. For several functionally related genes, this decrease in expression is associated with loss-of-function alleles. The rapid accumulation of these alleles potentially affected D. sechelliaâs initial adaptation to M. citrifolia, likely contributes to D. sechelliaâs poor competitive ability off of its host, and increases ecological isolation between D. sechellia and its sister species. Our results suggest that a subset of genes reduce or lose function as a consequence of host specialization, which may explain why, in general, specialist insects tend to shift to chemically similar hosts. Moreover, if the accumulation of non- or weakly functional genes in a specialist enhances the ecological isolation between it and other species, then this process may explain why specialists are speciose.

Project description:The entomopathogen Metarhizium anisopliae contains strains with wide host ranges and specialist strains adapted to particular hosts. Patterns of gene duplication, divergence and deletion in three generalist and three specialist strains were investigated by heterologous hybridization of genomic DNA to genes from the generalist strain ARSEF 2575. Many sequences from 2575 that are highly conserved in fungi showed rapid evolution and loss in specialist Metarhizium genomes. Some poorly hybridizing genes in specialists were functionally coordinated, including several involved in toxin biosyntheses and sugar metabolism in root exudates, indicative of reductive evolution. This suggests that specialists are loosing genes required to live in alternative hosts or as saprophytes. Several components of mobile genetic elements were also highly divergent or lost in specialists. Exceptionally, the genome of the specialist strain ARSEF 443 contained extra insertion elements that might play a role in generating evolutionary novelty.

Project description:Group A Streptococcus (GAS) has a rich evolutionary history of horizontal transfer among its core genes. Yet, despite extensive genetic mixing, GAS strains have discrete ecological phenotypes. To further our understanding of the molecular basis for ecological phenotypes, comparative genomic hybridization of a set of 97 diverse strains to a GAS pan-genome microarray was undertaken, and the association of accessory genes with emm genotypes that define tissue tropisms for infection was determined. Of the 22 non-prophage, accessory gene regions (AGRs) identified, only three AGRs account for all statistically significant linkage disequilibrium among strains having the genotypic biomarkers for throat versus skin infection specialist. Networked evolution and population structure analysis of loci representing each of the AGRs reveals that most strains with the skin specialist and generalist biomarkers form discrete clusters, whereas strains with the throat specialist biomarker are highly diverse. To identify co-inherited and co-selected accessory genes, the strength of genetic associations was determined for all possible pair wise combinations of accessory genes among the 97 GAS strains. Accessory genes showing very strong associations provide the basis for an evolutionary model, which reveals that a major transition between many throat and skin specialist haplotypes correlates with the gain or loss of genes encoding fibronectin-binding proteins. This study employs a novel synthesis of tools to help delineate the major genetic changes associated with key adaptive shifts in an extensively recombined bacterial species.

Project description:Primordial germ cells (PGCs), major cell resource used in the production of germline chimeras in birds, have been used in conservation of avian genetic resources and production of transgenic animals. Numerous bird species have been put on the brink of extinction due to habitat loss and degradation caused by environmental destruction and climate change, but research on PGCs is limited to specific poultry, such as chickens. Although it has recently been expanding to various bird species, it is still difficult to utilize PGCs due to biological differences and difficulties in in vitro long-term culture. Here, we constructed a single-cell landscape of chicken gonadal PGCs with established long-term culture systems of PGCs and compared them with those of the vocal learning wild bird, the zebra finches. Our results identified the interspecific differences in signaling pathways in gonadal PGCs and somatic cells, respectively. In particular, the NODAL and insulin signaling pathways were more active in zebra finch than in chickens, whereas the FGF downstream signaling pathway known to be important for the proliferation of chicken PGCs, was more active in chickens. These differences may contribute to optimizing the in vitro culture conditions of zebra finch PGCs. This study is the first cross-species single-cell transcriptomic analysis targeting birds, and laid an essential groundwork to contribute to the restoration of endangered birds and the production of transgenic birds by securing sufficient PGCs from various bird species in the future.
