Project description:This experiment assessed the natural gene expression variation present between colonies of the Indo-Pacific reef-building coral Acropora millepora, and additionally explored whether gene expression differed between two different intron haplotypes according to intron 4-500 in a carbonic anhydrase homolog. This study found no correspondence between host genotype and transcriptional state, but found significant intercolony variation, detecting 488 representing unique genes or 17% of the total genes analyzed. Such transcriptomic variation could be the basis upon which natural selection can act. Underlying variation could potentially allow reef corals to respond to different environments. Whether this source of variation and the genetic responses of corals and its symbionts will allow coral reefs to cope to the rapid pace of global change remains unknown.

Project description:Purpose: Corals are major sources of dimethylsulphoniopropionate (DMSP), a compound that plays a central role in the global sulphur cycle. While DMSP biosynthesis pathways have been investigated in plants and algae, the molecular basis for its production by corals is unknown. Given its potential role as an osmolyte, the effect of salinity stress on levels of DMSP was investigated in both adults and juveniles (lacking photosynthetic symbionts) of the coral Acropora millepora. This study used transcriptomic data to analyse the effects of salinity over the coral A. millepora and to identify coral genes likely to be involved in DMSP biosynthesis. Methods: Adults coral transcriptomic libraries were constructed from samples exposed during 1 and 24 hours of salinity treatment (25 PSU) and control (35 PSU) conditions (n=5 per condition). Juveniles coral transcriptomic libraries were constructed from samples exposed to 24 and 48 hours of salinity treatment (28 PSU) and control (35 PSU) conditions (n=6 per condition). All libraries were sequenced by 100 bp paired-end in a HiSeq 2000. Reads were mapped onto the Acropora millepora genome using TopHat2 to produce a count data gene expression matrix for subsequent gene expression analysis using DESeq2 package. Results: In adult coral samples, 5.5 - 10.2 million RNAseq reads were obtained for each treatment sampling time while 3.4 - 8.8 million reads were obtained for each juvenile coral sample. The count matrix of the 26,622 A. millepora gene predictions were generated using htseq-count workflow. BlastP analysis of the A. millepora gene predictions led to the identification of coral members of gene families implicated in DMSP biosynthesis in other organisms, while RNA-seq data was used to identify the differentially expressed ones in response to hyposaline stress and on this basis were considered to be candidates for roles in DMSP biosynthesis in corals. Conclusions: Hyposaline stress increased DMSP production in both adults and aposymbiotic juvenile corals, and transcriptomic analyses highlighted the potential involvement of specific candidate genes in the production of DMSP via an alga-like pathway. The biochemistry of DMSP production is not well established for any eukaryotic system and, as the first animals in which it has been demonstrated, this is particularly true in the case of corals. Our RNA-seq results enabled the identification of candidates for roles in DMSP biosynthesis in corals but, given its critical roles in diverse biological processes, a thorough investigation of the molecular mechanisms leading to its production by corals is required.

Project description:Thermal history plays a role in the response of corals to subsequent heat stress. Prior heat stress can have a profound impact on later thermal tolerance, but the mechanism for this plasticity is not clear. The understanding of gene expression changes behind physiological acclimatization is critical in forecasts of coral health in impending climate change scenarios. Acropora millepora fragments were preconditioned to sublethal bleaching threshold stress for a period of 10 days; this prestress conferred bleaching resistance in subsequent thermal challenge, in which non-preconditioned coral bleached. Using microarrays, we analyze the transcriptomes of the coral host, comparing the bleaching-resistant preconditioned treatment to non-preconditioned and control treatments. This experiment compared host gene expression of Acropora millepora across control, non-preconditioned, and preconditioned treatments. Fragments were sampled prior to preconditioning (Day 4), following 10 days of thermal preconditioning (Day 20), and after two (Day 23), four (Day 25), and eight days (Day 29) of 31M-BM-0C thermal challenge. The analysis implements 45 arrays, representing 5 sampling points of three treatments (n=3).

Project description:Background: While the luminal microbiome composition in the human cervicovaginal tract has been defined, the presence and impact of tissue-adherent ectocervical microbiota remain incompletely understood. Studies of luminal and tissue-associated bacteria in the gastrointestinal tract suggest that they may have distinct roles in health and disease. Here, we performed a multi-omics characterization of paired luminal and tissue samples collected from a clinically well-characterized cohort of Kenyan women. Results: We identified a tissue-adherent bacterial microbiome, with a higher alpha diversity than the luminal microbiome, in which dominant genera overall included Gardnerella and Lactobacillus, followed by Prevotella, Atopobium, and Sneathia. About half of the L. iners dominated luminal samples had a corresponding Gardnerella dominated tissue microbiome. Broadly, the tissue-adherent microbiome was associated with fewer differentially expressed host genes than the luminal microbiome. Gene set enrichment analysis revealed that L. crispatus-dominated tissue-adherent communities were associated with protein translation and antimicrobial activity, whereas a highly diverse microbiome was associated with epithelial remodeling and pro-inflammatory pathways. Communities dominated by L. iners and Gardnerella were associated with low host transcriptional activity. Tissue-adherent microbiomes dominated by Lactobacillus and Gardnerella correlated with host protein profiles associated with epithelial barrier stability, and with a more pro-inflammatory profile for the Gardnerella-dominated microbiome group. Tissue samples with a highly diverse composition had a protein profile representing cell proliferation and pro-inflammatory activity. Conclusion: We identified ectocervical tissue-adherent bacterial communities in all study participants. These communities were distinct from cervicovaginal luminal microbiota in a significant proportion of individuals. This difference could possibly explain that L. iners dominant luminal communities have a high probability of transitioning to high diverse bacterial communities including high abundance of Gardnerella. By performing integrative multi-omics analyses we further revealed that bacterial communities at both sites correlated with distinct host gene expression and protein levels. The tissue-adherent bacterial community is similar to vaginal biofilms that significantly impact women’s reproductive and sexual health.

Project description:For sessile organisms at high risk from climate change, phenotypic plasticity can be critical to rapid acclimation. Epigenetic markers like DNA methylation are hypothesized as mediators of plasticity; methylation is associated with the regulation of gene expression, can change in response to ecological cues, and is a proposed basis for the inheritance of acquired traits. Within reef-building corals, gene body methylation can change in response to ecological stressors. If coral DNA methylation is transmissible across generations, this could potentially facilitate rapid acclimation to environmental change. We investigated methylation heritability in Acropora, a stony reef-building coral. Two A. millepora and two A. selago adults were crossed, producing eight offspring crosses (four hybrid, two of each species). We used whole-genome bisulfite sequencing to identify methylated loci and allele-specific alignments to quantify per-locus inheritance. If methylation is heritable, differential methylation (DM) between the parents should equal DM between paired offspring alleles at a given locus. We found a mixture of heritable and non-heritable loci, with heritable portions ranging from 44% to 90% among crosses. Gene body methylation was more heritable than intergenic methylation, and most loci had a consistent degree of heritability between crosses (i.e., the deviation between parental and offspring DM were of similar magnitude and direction). Our results provide evidence that coral methylation can be inherited but that heritability is heterogenous throughout the genome. Future investigations into this heterogeneity and its phenotypic implications will be important to understanding the potential capability of intergenerational environmental acclimation in reef building corals."
