Project description:Genetic sexing strains (GSS) are an important tool in support of sterile insect technique (SIT) applications against insect pests and disease vectors. The yet unknown temperature-sensitive lethal (tsl) gene and the recently identified white pupae (wp) gene have been used as selectable markers in the most successful GSS developed so far, the Ceratitis capitata (medfly) VIENNA 8 GSS. The molecular identification of the tsl gene may open the way for its use as a marker for the development of GSS in other insect pests and disease vectors of SIT importance. Prior studies have already shown that the tsl gene is located on the right arm of chromosome 5, between the wp and Zw loci (tsl genomic region). In the present study, we used genomic, transcriptomic, bioinformatic, and cytogenetic approaches to characterize and analyze this genomic region in wild-type and tsl mutant medfly strains. Our results suggested the presence of 561 genes, with 322 of them carrying SNPs and/or insertion-deletion (indel) mutations in the tsl genomic region. Furthermore, comparative transcriptomic analysis indicated the presence of 32 differentially expressed genes, and bioinformatic analysis revealed the presence of 33 orthologs with a described heat-sensitive phenotype of Drosophila melanogaster in this region. These data can be used in functional genetic studies to identify the tsl gene(s) and the causal mutation(s) responsible for the temperature-sensitive lethal phenotype in medfly, and potentially additional genes causing a similar phenotype.

Project description:BackgroundThe Mediterranean fruit fly, Ceratitis capitata, is a significant agricultural pest managed through area-wide integrated pest management (AW-IPM) including a sterile insect technique (SIT) component. Male-only releases increase the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of SIT programs, which can be achieved through the development of genetic sexing strains (GSS). The most successful GSS developed to date is the C. capitata VIENNA 8 GSS, constructed using classical genetic approaches and an irradiation-induced translocation with two selectable markers: the white pupae (wp) and temperature-sensitive lethal (tsl) genes. However, currently used methods for selecting suitable markers and inducing translocations are stochastic and non-specific, resulting in a laborious and time-consuming process. Recent efforts have focused on identifying the gene(s) and the causal mutation(s) for suitable phenotypes, such as wp and tsl, which could be used as selectable markers for developing a generic approach for constructing GSS. The wp gene was recently identified, and efforts have been initiated to identify the tsl gene. This study investigates Ceratitis capitata deep orange (Ccdor) as a tsl candidate gene and its potential to induce tsl phenotypes.ResultsAn integrated approach based on cytogenetics, genomics, bioinformatics, and gene editing was used to characterize the Ccdor. Its location was confirmed on the right arm of chromosome 5 in the putative tsl genomic region. Knock-out of Ccdor using CRISPR/Cas9-NHEJ and targeting the fourth exon resulted in lethality at mid- and late-pupal stage, while the successful application of CRISPR HDR introducing a point mutation on the sixth exon resulted in the establishment of the desired strain and two additional strains (dor 12del and dor 51dup), all of them expressing tsl phenotypes and presenting no (or minimal) fitness cost when reared at 25 °C. One of the strains exhibited complete lethality when embryos were exposed at 36 °C.ConclusionsGene editing of the deep orange gene in Ceratitis capitata resulted in the establishment of temperature-sensitive lethal mutant strains. The induced mutations did not significantly affect the rearing efficiency of the strains. As deep orange is a highly conserved gene, these data suggest that it can be considered a target for the development of tsl mutations which could potentially be used to develop novel genetic sexing strains in insect pests and disease vectors.

Abstract:
Circadian clocks exhibit 'temperature compensation', meaning
that they show only small changes in period over a broad
temperature range. Several clock genes have been implicated in
the temperature-dependent control of period in Arabidopsis. We
show that blue light is essential for this, suggesting that the
effects of light and temperature interact or converge upon
common targets in the circadian clock. Our data demonstrate
that two cryptochrome photoreceptors differentially control
circadian period and sustain rhythmicity across the
physiological temperature range. In order to test the
hypothesis that the targets of light regulation are sufficient
to mediate temperature compensation, we constructed a
temperature-compensated clock model by adding passive
temperature effects into only the light-sensitive processes in
the model. Remarkably, this model was not only capable of full
temperature compensation and consistent with mRNA profiles
across a temperature range, but also predicted the
temperature-dependent change in the level of LATE ELONGATED
HYPOCOTYL, a key clock protein. Our analysis provides a
systems-level understanding of period control in the plant
circadian oscillator.

Project description:The rationale: Activation of the immune response antagonizes plant growth and development in absence of pathogen, and such autoimmune phenotype is often suppressed by the elevation of ambient temperature. However, the molecular regulation of ambient temperature-sensitive intersection of immune response and growth is largely elusive. Methods: A genetic screen identified an Arabidopsis mutant, zed1-D, by its high temperature-dependent growth retardation. A combination of molecular, cytological and genetic approaches was used to investigate the molecular basis behind the temperature-sensitive growth and immune response in zed1-D. Key results: A dominant mutation in HOPZ-ETI-DEFICIENT 1 (ZED1) is responsible for a high temperature-dependent autoimmunity and growth retardation in the zed1-D. The autoimmune phenotype in the zed1-D is dependent on the HOPZ-ACTIVATED RESISTANCE 1 (ZAR1). ZED1 and some ZED1-related kinases (ZRKs) are induced by elevated temperature and function cooperatively to suppress the immune response by modulating the transcription of SUPPRESSOR OF NPR1-1 CONSTITUTIVE 1 (SNC1) in absence of pathogen. Main conclusion: Our data reveal a previously unidentified role of ZRKs in ambient temperature-sensitive immune response in absence of pathogen, and thus disclose a possible molecular mechanism underlying temperature-mediated intersection of immune response and growth in plants.
