Project description:38 horses from 16 diverse breeds and Przewalski's Horse were used to generate a composite CNV map of equine genome. This map was used to detect novel copy number variation in six horses affected with disorder of sexual development (DSD).

Project description:The Przewalski's horse (Equus ferus przewalskii) is an endangered equid native to the steppes of central Asia. After becoming extinct in the wild multiple conservation efforts convened to preserve the species, including captive breeding programs, reintroduction and monitoring systems, protected lands, and cloning. Availability of a highly contiguous reference genome is essential to support these continued efforts. We used Oxford Nanopore sequencing to produce a scaffold-level 2.5 Gb nuclear assembly and 16,002 bp mitogenome from a captive Przewalski's mare. All assembly drafts were generated from 111 Gb of sequence from a single PromethION R10.4.1 flow cell. The mitogenome contained 37 genes in the standard mammalian configuration and was 99.63% identical to the domestic horse (Equus caballus). The nuclear assembly, EquPr2, contained 2,146 scaffolds with an N50 of 85.1 Mb, 43X mean depth, and BUSCO quality score of 98.92%. EquPr2 successfully improves upon the existing Przewalski's horse reference genome (Burgud), with 25-fold fewer scaffolds, a 166-fold larger N50, and phased pseudohaplotypes. Modified basecalls revealed 79.5% DNA methylation and 2.1% hydroxymethylation globally. Allele-specific methylation analysis between pseudohaplotypes revealed 226 differentially methylated regions in known imprinted genes and loci not previously reported as imprinted. The heterozygosity rate of 0.165% matches previous estimates for the species and compares favorably to other endangered animals. This improved Przewalski's horse assembly will serve as a valuable resource for conservation efforts and comparative genomics investigations.

Project description:Vocal expression of emotions has been suggested to be conserved throughout evolution. However, since vocal indicators of emotions have never been compared between closely related species using similar methods, it remains unclear whether this is the case. Here, we investigated vocal indicators of emotional valence (negative versus positive) in Przewalski's horses, in order to find out if expression of valence is similar between species and notably among Equidae through a comparison with previous results obtained in domestic horse whinnies. We observed Przewalski's horses in naturally occurring contexts characterised by positive or negative valence. As emotional arousal (bodily activation) can act as a confounding factor in the search for indicators of valence, we controlled for its effect on vocal parameters using a behavioural indicator (movement). We found that positive and negative situations were associated with specific types of calls. Additionally, the acoustic structure of calls differed according to the valence. There were some similarities but also striking differences in expression of valence between Przewalski's and domestic horses, suggesting that vocal expression of emotional valence, unlike emotional arousal, could be species specific rather than conserved throughout evolution.

Project description:In multi-cellular organisms, biological function emerges when cells of heterogeneous types and states are combined into complex tissues. Nevertheless unbiased dissection of tissues into coherent cell subpopulations is currently lacking. We introduce an automated, massively parallel single cell RNA sequencing method for intuitively analyzing in-vivo transcriptional states in thousands of single cells. Combined with unsupervised classification algorithms, it facilitates ab initio and marker-free characterization of classical hematopoietic cell types from splenic tissues. Importantly, modeling single cells transcriptional states in dendritic cells subpopulations, where a cell type hierarchy is difficult to define with marker-based approaches, uncovers complex combinatorial activity of multiple gene modules and capture cell-to-cell variability in steady state conditions and following pathogen activation. Massively parallel single cell RNA-seq thereby emerges as an effective tool for unbiased dissection of complex tissues.
