Genomic and transcriptomic landscapes of independent invasions of the Pacific Oyster Crassostrea gigas

ABSTRACT: Upon colonizing new habitats invasive species face a series of new selection pressures as a result of changing abiotic conditions and novel biotic interactions with native species. These new selection pressures can be accommodated by different mechanism that act on different levels and across different time scales: 1) By changing transcriptomic profiles species can react by plasticity within individual physiological limitations. 2) Invasive populations can adapt by fixing beneficial genetic variants in response to the newly encountered selection pressures. Here, we compare the genomic and transcriptomic landscapes of two independent invasions of the Pacific Oyster Crassostrea gigas into the North Sea. In detail, we combine high density full genome resequencing and low density ddRAD on the genomic level with RNAseq on the transcriptomic level to reveal outlier loci (SNPs) indicative of adaptation, as well as transcriptomic profiles from a translocation experiment to show immediate physiological reactions. The low congruence between differentially regulated genes and outlier loci indicates that different processes act on the different time scales. By contrasting population outlier loci and population specific transcriptomic profiles we can thus identify relevant processes acting during different phases of the invasive process, which will allow to take a glimpse at the traits and processes characterizing successful invasions.

Project description:This a model from the article: Increased glycolytic flux as an outcome of whole-genome duplication in yeast. Conant GC, Wolfe KH Mol. Syst. Biol. [2007 ; Volume: 3 (Issue: )]: 129 17667951 , Abstract: After whole-genome duplication (WGD), deletions return most loci to single copy. However, duplicate loci may survive through selection for increased dosage. Here, we show how the WGD increased copy number of some glycolytic genes could have conferred an almost immediate selective advantage to an ancestor of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, providing a rationale for the success of the WGD. We propose that the loss of other redundant genes throughout the genome resulted in incremental dosage increases for the surviving duplicated glycolytic genes. This increase gave post-WGD yeasts a growth advantage through rapid glucose fermentation; one of this lineage's many adaptations to glucose-rich environments. Our hypothesis is supported by data from enzyme kinetics and comparative genomics. Because changes in gene dosage follow directly from post-WGD deletions, dosage selection can confer an almost instantaneous benefit after WGD, unlike neofunctionalization or subfunctionalization, which require specific mutations. We also show theoretically that increased fermentative capacity is of greatest advantage when glucose resources are both large and dense, an observation potentially related to the appearance of angiosperms around the time of WGD. The original model submitted by the authors was slightly altered and now comprises the models originally submitted as MODEL2426780967, MODEL2427021978, MODEL2427095802. It reproduces figures 2A,3A and 3B from the publication. This model uses the glycolysis model from Pritchard and Kell (2002) with an additional parameter, WGD_E , to adjust for the differing enzyme conzentrations before the whole genome duplication (WGD) and parameters fV_xxx that adjust the Vmax of the different reactions (xxx eg. HXT or PYK). Figure 3A from the article can be reproduced by changing the value of the parameters fV_xxx to 0.9 indiviually, with xxx signifying the different enzymes (HXT, HXK ...) Figure 3B from the publication can be reproduced by setting the parameter WGD_E to 0.75 and individually setting the parameters fV_xxx to 1.333. To reproduce figure 2A from the article change the parameter WGD_E in the range between 0.65 and 1.0.
