Robust expansion of phylogeny for fast-growing genome sequence data.

ABSTRACT: Massive sequencing of SARS-CoV-2 genomes has urged novel methods that employ existing phylogenies to add new samples efficiently instead of de novo inference. 'TIPars' was developed for such challenge integrating parsimony analysis with pre-computed ancestral sequences. It took about 21 seconds to insert 100 SARS-CoV-2 genomes into a 100k-taxa reference tree using 1.4 gigabytes. Benchmarking on four datasets, TIPars achieved the highest accuracy for phylogenies of moderately similar sequences. For highly similar and divergent scenarios, fully parsimony-based and likelihood-based phylogenetic placement methods performed the best respectively while TIPars was the second best. TIPars accomplished efficient and accurate expansion of phylogenies of both similar and divergent sequences, which would have broad biological applications beyond SARS-CoV-2. TIPars is accessible from https://tipars.hku.hk/ and source codes are available at https://github.com/id-bioinfo/TIPars.

Project description:IntroductionGrowth traits are important in poultry production, however, little is known for its regulatory mechanism at epigenetic level. Therefore, in this study, we aim to compare DNA methylation profiles between fast- and slow-growing broilers in order to identify candidate genes for chicken growth. Methylated DNA immunoprecipitation-sequencing (MeDIP-seq) was used to investigate the genome-wide DNA methylation pattern in high and low tails of Recessive White Rock (WRR(h); WRR(l)) and that of Xinhua Chickens (XH(h); XH(l)) at 7 weeks of age. The results showed that the average methylation density was the lowest in CGIs followed by promoters. Within the gene body, the methylation density of introns was higher than that of UTRs and exons. Moreover, different methylation levels were observed in different repeat types with the highest in LINE/CR1. Methylated CGIs were prominently distributed in the intergenic regions and were enriched in the size ranging 200-300 bp. In total 13,294 methylated genes were found in four samples, including 4,085 differentially methylated genes of WRR(h) Vs. WRR(l), 5,599 of XH(h) Vs. XH(l), 4,204 of WRR(h) Vs. XH(h), as well as 7,301 of WRR(l) Vs. XH(l). Moreover, 132 differentially methylated genes related to growth and metabolism were observed in both inner contrasts (WRR(h) Vs. WRR(l) and XH(h) Vs. XH(l)), whereas 129 differentially methylated genes related to growth and metabolism were found in both across-breed contrasts (WRR(h) Vs. XH(h) and WRR(l) Vs. XH(l)). Further analysis showed that overall 75 genes exhibited altered DNA methylation in all four contrasts, which included some well-known growth factors of IGF1R, FGF12, FGF14, FGF18, FGFR2, and FGFR3. In addition, we validate the MeDIP-seq results by bisulfite sequencing in some regions.ConclusionsThis study revealed the global DNA methylation pattern of chicken muscle, and identified candidate genes that potentially regulate muscle development at 7 weeks of age at methylation level.
