Project description:Hybrid sterility is one of the earliest postzygotic isolating mechanisms to evolve between two recently diverged species. Uncovering the mechanisms of hybrid sterilitynot only provides insight into the origins of species but also potentially revealsnovel causes of intra-species infertility.Here we identify causes underlying hybrid infertilityofSchizosaccharomyces pombeand S. kambucha, two fission yeast species that are 99.5% identical at the nucleotide level.These yeasts mate to form viable diploids that efficiently complete meiosis. However,S. kambucha/S. pombe hybrids generate few viable gametes, most of which are either aneuploid or diploid.We find that chromosomal rearrangements and related recombination defectsare major causes of hybrid infertility. Surprisingly, using experiments in which we eliminate meiotic recombination, we find thatrecombination defects cannot completely explain the hybrid infertility. Instead, we find that a significant fraction of hybrid infertility is caused by the action of at least three distinct meiotic drive alleles, one on each S. kambucha chromosome,that M-bM-^@M-^\cheatM-bM-^@M-^] to be transmitted to more than half (up to 90%) of viable gametes.Two of these driving lociare linked by a chromosomal translocation and thus constitute a novel type of paired meiotic drive complex. We find that all three S. kambuchadrive loci independently contribute to hybrid infertility by causing nonrandom spore death. This study reveals how quickly multiple barriers to fertility can arise.In addition, it provides further support for models in which genetic conflicts, such as those caused by meiotic drive alleles, can drive speciation.

Project description:Meiosis is a specialized cell division that generates gametes, such as eggs and sperm. Errors in meiosis result in miscarriages and are the leading cause of birth defects, however the molecular origins of these defects remain unknown. Studies in model organisms are beginning to identify the genes and pathways important for meiosis, but the parts list is still poorly defined. Here we present a comprehensive catalogue of genes required for meiosis in the fission yeast, Schizosaccharomyces pombe. Our genome-wide functional screen surveyed all non-essential genes for roles in chromosome segregation and spore formation. Novel genes required at distinct stages of the meiotic chromosome segregation and differentiation programme were identified. Preliminary characterization implicated three of these genes in centrosome/spindle pole body function, centromere and cohesion function. Our findings represent a near-complete parts list of genes required for meiosis in fission yeast, providing a valuable resource to advance our molecular understanding of meiosis.
