Project description:The importance and applications of polyploidy have long been recognized, from shaping the evolutionary success of flowering plants to improving agricultural productivity. Recent studies have shown that one of the parental subgenomes in ancient polyploids is generally more dominant - having both retained more genes and being more highly expressed - a phenomenon termed subgenome dominance. How quickly one subgenome dominates within a newly formed polyploid, if immediate or after millions of years, and the genomic features that determine which genome dominates remain poorly understood. To investigate the rate of subgenome dominance emergence, we examined gene expression, gene methylation, and transposable element (TE) methylation in a natural less than 140 year old allopolyploid (Mimulus peregrinus), a resynthesized interspecies triploid hybrid (M. robertsii), a resynthesized allopolyploid (M. peregrinus), and diploid progenitors (M. guttatus and M. luteus). We show that subgenome expression dominance occurs instantly following the hybridization of two divergent genomes and that subgenome expression dominance significantly increases over generations. Additionally, CHH methylation levels are significantly reduced in regions near genes and within transposons in the first generation hybrid, intermediate in the resynthesized allopolyploid, and are repatterned differently between the dominant and submissive subgenomes in the natural allopolyploid. Our analyses reveal that the subgenome differences in levels of TE methylation mirror the increase in expression bias observed over the generations following the hybridization. These findings not only provide important insights into genomic and epigenomic shock that occurs following hybridization and polyploid events, but may also contribute to uncovering the mechanistic basis of heterosis and subgenomic dominance.

Project description:Teleost fishes, which are the largest and most diverse group of living vertebrates, have a rich history of ancient and recent polyploidy. Previous studies of allotetraploid common carp and goldfish (cyprinids) reported a dominant subgenome, which is more expressed and exhibits biased gene retention. However, the underlying mechanisms contributing to observed 'subgenome dominance' remains poorly understood. Here we report high-quality genomes of twenty-one cyprinids to investigate the origin and subsequent subgenome evolution patterns following three independent allopolyploidy events. We identify the closest extant relatives of the diploid progenitor species, investigate genetic and epigenetic differences among subgenomes, and conclude that observed subgenome dominance patterns are likely due to a combination of maternal dominance and transposable element densities in each polyploid. These findings provide an important foundation to understanding subgenome dominance patterns observed in teleost fishes, and ultimately the role of polyploidy in contributing to evolutionary innovations.

Project description:High plasticity of common wheat is attributed to the captured and polyploidization-promoted diversity. However, uncontrolled subgenome diversification can lead to hybrid conflict and dysgenesis, resulting in decreased diversity. How genomic diversity is maintained and interpreted to increase plasticity is unclear. By data-mining from the binding of 193 genome-wide trans-factors and genetic perturbations in common wheat, we identified LHP1 as a major regulator of subgenome-diversified defense genes, enhancer RNAs, and metabolite synthesis-related gene clusters via H3K27me3. Stripe rust infection leads to a global decrease in LHP1-mediated H3K27me3, deprivation of which enhances common wheat stripe rust resistance. We also revealed the consistency between subgenome diversity and population diversity, potentially promoted by LHP1, implying the recent diversification preferentially occurred in the captured subgenome-diversified regions regulated by LHP1. Thus, common wheat benefitted from multi-faced role of LHP1 in promoting sequence diversity and repressing subgenome-diversified defenses; this constraint is eliminated by pathogen infections, enabling timely release and fixation of favorable variations, conferring the evolutionary advantage and high plasticity of common wheat.

Project description:Allopolyploidisation merges evolutionarily distinct parental genomes (subgenomes) into a single nucleus. A frequent observation is that one subgenome is 'dominant' over the other subgenome, often being more highly expressed. Here, we 'replayed the evolutionary tape' with six isogenic resynthesised Brassica napus allopolyploid lines and investigated subgenome dominance patterns over the first 10 generations postpolyploidisation. We found that the same subgenome was consistently more dominantly expressed in all lines and generations and that >70% of biased gene pairs showed the same dominance patterns across all lines and an in silico hybrid of the parents. Gene network analyses indicated an enrichment for network interactions and several biological functions for the Brassica oleracea subgenome biased pairs, but no enrichment was identified for Brassica rapa subgenome biased pairs. Furthermore, DNA methylation differences between subgenomes mirrored the observed gene expression bias towards the dominant subgenome in all lines and generations. Many of these differences in gene expression and methylation were also found when comparing the progenitor genomes, suggesting that subgenome dominance is partly related to parental genome differences rather than just a byproduct of allopolyploidisation. These findings demonstrate that 'replaying the evolutionary tape' in an allopolyploid results in largely repeatable and predictable subgenome expression dominance patterns.

Project description:Allopolyploidization-induced "genome shock" poses severe challenges to subgenome stability. However, the mechanisms by which subgenomes achieve functional homeostasis through genomic and epigenomic regulation remain poorly understood. This study integrates multi-omics data from Brassica napus and its putative diploid progenitors to reveal that coordinated convergence of genomic and epigenomic plays a central role in maintaining subgenome functional homeostasis within allopolyploids. Here, we present the first comprehensive, high-quality epigenomic maps to date for the diploid Brassica rapa and Brassica oleracea. Comparative genomic analyses revealed that epigenomic reprogramming in A and C subgenomes of the allotetraploid drives convergent chromatin states, which substantially diminished expression divergence between homoeologous gene pairs. Notably, compared to the A subgenome, the C subgenome in the allotetraploid exhibits more pronounced sequence conservation of regulatory elements and epigenetic homeostasis. Furthermore, transcription factor binding sites (TFBSs) influenced by genomic variation in the A subgenome demonstrate convergent evolutionary patterns toward the C subgenome. This study provides novel insights into the coordinated convergence of genomic and epigenomic regulation between subgenomes in allotetraploid Brassica napus, demonstrating that allopolyploids resolve subgenomic conflicts through multi-layered regulatory networks. These findings establish a novel paradigm for elucidating the molecular basis of polyploidy advantages in crops and for enabling rational design of synthetic polyploids.
