Rapid adaptation of the pathogen is favored by annual sexual reproduction that generates genotypic diversity. With the aim of studying the recombination landscape across the P. viticola genome, we generated 2 half-sibling F1 progenies (N = 189 and 162). Using targeted SNP sequencing, between 1,405 and 1,894 markers were included in parental linkage maps, and a consensus map was obtained by integrating 4,509 markers. The reference genome could be assembled into 17 pseudochromosomes, anchoring 88% of its physical length. We observed a strong collinearity between parental genomes and extensive synteny with the downy mildew Peronospora effusa. In the consensus map, the median recombination rate was 13.8 cM/Mb. The local recombination rate was highly variable along chromosomes, and recombination was suppressed in putative centromeric regions. Recombination rate was found negatively correlated with repeats' coverage and positively correlated with gene coverage. However, genes encoding secreted proteins and putative effectors were underrepresented in highly recombining regions. In both progenies, about 5% of the individuals presented karyotypic anomalies. Aneuploidies and triploidies almost exclusively originated from the male-transmitted chromosomes. Triploids resulted from fertilization by diploid gametes, but also from dispermy. Obligatory sexual reproduction each year may explain the lower level of karyotypic variation in P. viticola compared to other oomycetes. The linkage maps will be useful to guide future de novo chromosome-scale assemblies of P. viticola genomes and to perform forward genetics.","PeriodicalId":12468,"journal":{"name":"G3: Genes|Genomes|Genetics","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2025-01-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142754938","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Stable haploidy results from mutations in HO, which encodes an endonuclease required for haploid-specific mating-type switching. Previous studies found an unexpected diversity of HO alleles among natural isolates within a small geographic area. We developed a hands-on field and laboratory activity for middle-school students in Denver, CO, USA, to isolate wild yeast from oak bark, identify species via DNA sequencing, and sequence HO from S. cerevisiae isolates. We find limited HO diversity in North American oak isolates, pointing to efficient, continuous dispersal across the continent. In contrast, we isolated the \"dairy yeast,\" Kluyveromyces lactis, from a tree <10 m away and found that it represents a new population distinct from an oak population in an adjacent state. The outreach activity partnered middle-school, high-school, and university students in making scientific discoveries and can be adapted to other locations and natural yeast habitats. Indeed, a pilot sampling activity in southeast Texas yielded S. cerevisiae oak isolates with a new allele of HO and, from a nearby prickly pear cactus, a heat-tolerant isolate of Saccharomyces paradoxus.","PeriodicalId":12468,"journal":{"name":"G3: Genes|Genomes|Genetics","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2025-01-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11708222/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142686521","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although many theoretical studies have investigated the dynamics of local adaptation using 2-population models, there remains a need to extend the theoretical framework to continuous space settings, reflecting the real habitats of species. In this study, we use a multidimensional continuous space model and mathematically analyze the establishment process of local adaptation, with a specific emphasis on the relative roles of mutation and migration. First, the role of new mutations is evaluated by deriving the establishment probability of a locally adapted mutation using a branching process and a diffusion approximation. Next, the contribution of immigrants from a neighboring region with similar environmental conditions is considered. Theoretical predictions of the local adaptation rate agreed with the results of Wright-Fisher simulations in both mutation-driven and migration-driven cases. Evolutionary dynamics depend on several factors, including the strength of migration and selection, population density, habitat size, and spatial dimensions. These results offer a theoretical framework for assessing whether mutation or migration predominantly drives convergent local adaptation in spatially continuous environments in the presence of patchy regions with similar environmental conditions.","PeriodicalId":12468,"journal":{"name":"G3: Genes|Genomes|Genetics","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2025-01-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11708235/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142638501","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although this parasite is associated with honey bee colony losses, the original draft genome-which was completed before its differentiation from the closely related Crithidia mellificae-has remained the reference for this species despite lacking improvements from newer methodologies. Here, we report the updated sequencing, assembly, and annotation of the BRL-type (Bee Research Laboratory) strain (ATCC PRA-422) of Lotmaria passim. The nuclear genome assembly has been resolved into 31 complete chromosomes and is paired with an assembled kinetoplast genome consisting of a maxicircle and 30 minicircle sequences. The assembly spans 33.7 Mb and contains very little repetitive content, from which our annotation of both the nuclear assembly and kinetoplast predicted 10,288 protein-coding genes. Analyses of the assembly revealed evidence of a recent chromosomal duplication event within chromosomes 5 and 6 and provided evidence for a high level of aneuploidy in this species, mirroring the genomic flexibility employed by other trypanosomatids as a means of adaptation to different environments. This high-quality reference can therefore provide insights into adaptations of trypanosomatids to the thermally regulated, acidic, and phytochemically rich honey bee hindgut niche, which offers parallels to the challenges faced by other Leishmaniinae during the challenges they undergo within insect vectors, during infection of mammals, and exposure to antiparasitic drugs throughout their multi-host life cycles. This reference will also facilitate investigations of strain-specific genomic polymorphisms, their role in pathogenicity, and the development of treatments for pollinator infection.","PeriodicalId":12468,"journal":{"name":"G3: Genes|Genomes|Genetics","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2025-01-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11708234/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142582683","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Developing robust quantitative tools for G×E analysis can enhance the study of complex diseases.

In this study, we developed MAGEIT_RAN and MAGEIT_FIX to identify interactions between an environmental factor and a set of genetic markers, including both rare and common variants, based on the MinQue for Summary statistics. The genetic main effects in MAGEIT_RAN and MAGEIT_FIX are modeled as random and fixed effects, respectively. Simulation studies showed that both tests had type I error under control, with MAGEIT_RAN being the most powerful test. Applying MAGEIT to a genome-wide analysis of gene-alcohol interactions on hypertension and seated systolic blood pressure in the Multiethnic Study of Atherosclerosis revealed genes like EIF2AK2, CCNDBP1, and EPB42 influencing blood pressure through alcohol interaction.

The present study aims to elucidate the mechanism behind peroxisome-mediated glia-neuron communication using Drosophila neuromuscular junction (NMJ) as a model system. We observe a high abundance of peroxisomes in the abdominal NMJ of adult Drosophila. Interestingly, glia-specific knockdown of peroxisome import receptor protein, Pex5, significantly increases axonal area and volume and leads to axon swelling. The enlarged axonal structure is likely deleterious, as the flies with glia-specific knockdown of Pex5 exhibit age-dependent locomotion defects. In addition, impaired peroxisomal ether lipid biosynthesis in glial cells also induces axon swelling. Consistent with our previous work, defective peroxisomal import function upregulates pro-inflammatory cytokine upd3 in glial cells, while glia-specific overexpression of upd3 induces axonal swelling. Furthermore, motor neuron-specific activation of the JAK-STAT pathway through hop overexpression results in axon swelling. Our findings demonstrated that impairment of glial peroxisomes alters axonal morphology, neuroinflammation, and motor neuron function.","PeriodicalId":12468,"journal":{"name":"G3: Genes|Genomes|Genetics","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2025-01-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11708211/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142389423","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
