Project description:Bicyclus anynana butterflies were reared at 17°C and 27°C to produce the dry and wet season forms. RNA was extracted using TRIzol from the heads of 12 individual animals ~0-3 hours after eclosing; 3 dry season females, 3 wet season females, 3 dry season males, and 3 wet season males. A TruSeq RNA Sample Preparation Kit v2 was used to make 12 double stranded cDNA libraries from polyadenylated RNA. We size selected for DNA at ~280-340 bp. Libraries were sequenced using a HiSeq 2500, paired end 100-cycle sequence run.

Project description:To identify the concurrent effects of multiple environmental factors on gene expression under natural climatic fluctuations in rice, we examined global gene expression patterns in two fields typical of the main modes of rice cultivation, over two seasons, each comprising 15 time-points in three different genotypes Two time-series of 15 time-points, one for each season (dry and wet) over two different fields

Project description:Wheat cultivars ‘TAM 111’ and ‘TAM 112’ have been dominantly grown in the Southern U.S. Great Plains for many years due to their excellent, yet variable, drought tolerance. To identify the molecular basis and genetic control of drought tolerance in these two landmark cultivars, RNA-seq analysis was conducted to compare gene expression difference in flag leaves under fully irrigated (wet) and water deficient (dry) conditions. Of the 122,017 gene sequences assembled, 2,254 genes showed significantly altered expression patterns under dry and wet conditions in the two cultivars. TAM 111 had 593 and 1,532 dry-wet differentially expressed genes (DEGs), and TAM 112 had 777 and 1,670 at heading and grain-filling stages, respectively. The two cultivars have 1,214 (53.9%) dry-wet DEGs in common, which agreed with their excellent adaption to drought, but 438 and 602 dry-wet DEGs were respectively shown only in TAM 111 and TAM 112 suggested that each may have a specific mechanism to cope with drought. Annotation of all 2,254 genes with dry-wet expression difference found 1,855 have functions related to biosynthesis, stress responses, defense responses, transcription factors and cellular components related to ion or protein transportation and signal transduction. Comparing hierarchical structure of biological processes, molecule functions and cellular components revealed the significant regulation differences between TAM 111 and TAM 112, particularly for genes of phosphorylation and adenyl ribonucleotide binding, and proteins located in nucleus and plasma membrane. Comparing gene expressions involved in responses to stresses of water deprivation, heat and oxidative, ABA-induced signal pathway and transcription regulation found TAM 112 have more specific dry-wet DEGs than TAM 111 with most of them up-regulated, indicating that TAM 112 is more active than TAM 111 in response to drought. In addition, 399 dry-wet DEGs with unknown functions included 258 genes encoding predicted uncharacterized proteins and 141 unannotated genes with no similar sequences identified in the databases. These may represent novel genes related to drought response in TAM 111 or TAM 112. This research thus revealed different drought-tolerance mechanisms in TAM 111 and TAM 112 and identified useful drought tolerance genes for wheat adaption.

Project description:The dry season is a major challenge for Plasmodium falciparum parasites in many malaria endemic regions, where water availability limits mosquitoes to only part of the year. How P. falciparum bridges two transmission seasons months apart, without being cleared by the host or compromising host survival is poorly understood. Here we show that low levels of P. falciparum parasites persist in the blood of asymptomatic Malian individuals during the 5- to 6-month dry season, rarely causing symptoms and minimally affecting the host immune response. Parasites isolated during the dry season are transcriptionally distinct from those of subjects with febrile malaria in the transmission season, reflecting longer circulation within each replicative cycle, of parasitized erythrocytes without adhering to the vascular endothelium. Low parasite levels during the dry season are not due to impaired replication, but rather increased efficiency of splenic clearance of longer-circulating infected erythrocytes. We propose that P. falciparum virulence in areas of seasonal malaria transmission is regulated so that the parasite decreases its endothelial binding capacity, allowing increased splenic clearance and enabling several months of subclinical parasite persistence.

Project description:Anopheles gambiae mosquitoes play an important role in malaria transmission. In sub-Saharan Africa, the dry season can last several months. The mechanisms for mosquito population to survive through the dry season are poorly understood. One possible mechanism is that adults increase their desiccation tolerance over the dry season. Genetic analyses have shown that inversions 2La, 2Rb, 2Rc, 2Rd and 2Ru are associated with aridity resistance, however little is known about the transcriptional response of genes in response to desiccation. The results of the present study demonstrate that desiccation affects expression of genes associated with several mosquito physiological mechanisms, including those that protect against water loss, but all structural related genes decreased their expression. The identified differentially expressed genes in response to desiccation stress can lay a foundation for better understanding of molecular mechanisms underling dry-season survival of An. gambiae mosquitoes, so it may provide a different option for malaria vector control.

Project description:Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a leading cause of blindness in the elderly. There are two types of AMD: dry AMD and wet AMD. While laser-induced choroidal neovascularization has been used extensively in the studies of wet AMD by presenting the main features of human wet AMD, there was no established mouse model which fully recapitulates the cardinal features of human dry AMD. In this regard, lack of appropriate mouse model for dry AMD hampered the translational research on the pathogenesis and development of therapeutic agents. We recently suggested that 5XFAD mice could be a mouse model of dry AMD with regard to the amyloid beta (Aβ) related pathology. In this study, using transmission electron microscope, we analyzed ultrastructure of retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) of 5XFAD mice. Of importance, aged 5XFAD mice had ultrastructural changes of RPE and Bruch’s membrane compatible with cardinal features of dry AMD, including loss of apical microvilli and basal infolding of RPE, increased thickness of Bruch’s membrane, basal laminar and linear deposits, and accumulation of lipofuscin granules and undigested photoreceptor outer segment-laiden phagosomes. Using a threshold of 1.2 fold difference, we found “564” differentially expressed genes of which “190” were up-regulated and “374” were down-regulated in the RPE complex of aged 5XFAD mice. These altered genes were implicated in the pathogenesis of AMD including inflammation and immune response-related genes and retinol metabolism-related genes. Taken together, we suggest that aged 5XFAD mice can be used for dry AMD mouse model.

Project description:The mechanisms by which mosquitoes survive the desiccating conditions of the dry season in West African savannahs and are able to readily transmit malaria as soon as the rains start remain largely unknown. Thus, we examined the degree to which the physiology of 1 h- and 24 h-old female An. gambiae M and S is altered at the onset of the dry season (“ods”) by examining their metabolic fingerprints and protein expression, which were compared to those of females exposed to the rainy season (“rs”) conditions. Three amino acids (phenylalanine, tyrosine and valine) that play a pivotal role in cuticle hardness were significantly decreased from the 1 h- to 24 h-old females, regardless of the experimental conditions. These amino acids were present in higher amounts in 1 h-old female An. gambiae M reared under “ods”; such a seasonal difference was not reported in the female S molecular form. Together with the increased expression of cuticular proteins 70 and 117(spots 67 and 65, respectively), our data suggest that the cuticle thickness, rigidity and permeability were adjusted at the onset of the dry season. Evident signs of energetic metabolism adjustments were found in both of the molecular forms at the onset of the dry season. Moreover, 1 h-old females of An. gambiae S were characterised by elevated amounts of glycogen phosphorylase, isocitrate dehydrogenase and citrate synthase, suggesting an increase of their metabolic activity at the onset of the dry season. This study presents novel insights into drought resistance in the mosquitoes of utmost medical importance.
