Transcriptome profiles of virgin and mated Callosobruchus maculatus seed beetles

Project description:Objective: Sexually dimorphic phenotypes arise largely from sex-specific gene expression, which has mainly been characterized in sexually naïve adults. However, we expect sexual dimorphism in transcription to be dynamic and dependent on factors such as reproductive status. Mating induces many behavioral and physiological changes distinct to each sex and is therefore expected to activate regulatory changes in many sex-biased genes. Methods: Using RNA-seq we first characterized sexual dimorphism in gene expression, for the first time in Callosobruchus maculatus seed beetles. We then examined how females and males respond to mating and how it affects sex-biased expression, both in more sex-limited (abdomen) and sex-shared (head and thorax) tissues. Results: Mating responses were largely sex-specific and, as expected, females showed more numerous changes compared to males. Of the sex-biased genes present in virgins, 16% (1,041 genes) in the abdomen and 17% (243 genes) in the head and thorax altered their relative expression between the sexes. Sex-bias status changed in 2% of the genes in the abdomen and 4% in the head and thorax following mating. Mating responses involved de-feminization of females and, to a lesser extent, de-masculinization of males relative to their virgin state: mating decreased rather than increased dimorphic expression of sex-biased genes.

Identification of novel ejaculated seminal fluid proteins in a seed beetle and division of labour across male accessory reproductive glands

Project description:The male ejaculate contains a multitude of seminal fluid proteins (SFPs), many of which are key reproductive molecules. However, the identification of SFPs is notoriously difficult and a detailed understanding of this complex phenotype has only been achieved in a few model species. We employed a recently developed proteomic method involving whole-organism stable isotopeic labelling coupled with proteomic and transcriptomic analyses which allowed us to successfully characterize male SFPs in the seed beetle Callosobruchus maculatus. We identified 317 proteins that were transferred to females at mating, and a great majority of these showed signals of secretion and were significantly male-biased in expression in the abdomen. Male SFPs were enriched with proteins involved in general metabolic and catabolic processes but also with proteolytic enzymes and proteins involved in protection against oxidative stress. Thirty-seven proteins showed significant homology with SFPs previously identified in other insects. However, no less than 92 C. maculatus SFPs were entirely novel, receiving no significant blast hits and lacking homologs in extant data bases, consistent with a rapid and divergent evolution of SFPs. In a second effort, we used 3D micro-tomography in conjunction with proteomic methods to identify 5 distinct pairs of male accessory reproductive glands and to show that certain male SFPs are only produced in certain male glands. We suggest that this division of labour may allow males to tailor ejaculate composition. Finally, we provide a tentative list of 231 candidate female-derived reproductive proteins, some of which are likely important in ejaculate processing and/or sperm storage.
