Project description:We collected whole genome testis expression data from hybrid zone mice. We integrated GWAS mapping of testis expression traits and low testis weight to gain insight into the genetic basis of hybrid male sterility.
Project description:We collected whole genome testis expression data from hybrid zone mice. We integrated GWAS mapping of testis expression traits and low testis weight to gain insight into the genetic basis of hybrid male sterility. Gene expression was measured in whole testis from males aged 62-86 days. Samples include 190 first generation lab-bred male offspring of wild-caught mice from the Mus musculus musculus - M. m. domesticus hybrid zone.
Project description:MPP2, MPP3 and CLP populations were isolated by fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) from the BM of B6 mice based on the surface expression of VCAM1, FLT3 and IL7Ra within LSK population. On average 100K cells were analyzed for each population in 3 independent biological experiments. We generated sequence libraries from these low RNA inputs using the SMARTer Stranded RNA-Seq and sequenced at high depth of coverage to generate ~2x120 M reads per biological replicate.
