The lack of W chromosomes in early-diverging lepidopteran lineages has led to the suggestion of an ancestral Z0 system in this clade and a B chromosome origin of the W. This contrasts with the canonical model of W chromosome evolution in which the W would have originated from the same homologous autosomal pair as the Z chromosome. Despite the distinct models proposed, the rapid evolution of the W chromosome has hindered the elucidation of its origin. Here, we present high-quality, chromosome-level genome assemblies of 2 Hypolimnas species (Hypolimnas misippus and Hypolimnas bolina) and use the H. misippus assembly to explore the evolution of W chromosomes in butterflies and moths. We show that in H. misippus, the W chromosome has higher similarity to the Z chromosome than any other chromosome, which could suggest a possible origin from the same homologous autosome pair as the Z chromosome. However, using genome assemblies of closely related species (ditrysian lineages) containing assembled W chromosomes, we present contrasting evidence suggesting that the W chromosome might have evolved from a B chromosome instead. Crucially, by using a synteny analysis to infer homology, we show that W chromosomes are likely to share a common evolutionary origin in Lepidoptera.

In summary, the expanding datasets create a need for scalable gene annotation methods.

Additionally, the scope of orthology prediction should be pushed beyond well-investigated proteomes. This demands the development of specialized methods for the identification of orthologs to short proteins and noncoding RNAs and for the functional characterization of novel gene families. Furthermore, protein structures predicted by machine learning are now readily available, but this new information is yet to be integrated with orthology-based analyses. Finally, an increasing focus should be placed on making orthology assignments adhere to the findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable (FAIR) principles.

Lophotrochozoans are a major clade of metazoans which, despite their considerable biological diversity and key phylogenetic position as sister group of ecdysozoans (i.e. flies and nematodes), are poorly explored, especially regarding apoptosis mechanisms. Traditionally, each apoptotic signaling pathway was considered to rely on a specific initiator caspase, associated with an activator. To shed light on apoptosis evolution in animals, we explored the evolutionary history of initiator caspases, caspase activators, and the BCL-2 family (which control mitochondrial apoptotic pathway) in lophotrochozoans using phylogenetic analysis and protein interaction predictions. We discovered a diversification of initiator caspases in molluscs, annelids, and brachiopods, and the loss of key extrinsic apoptosis components in platyhelminths, along with the emergence of a clade-specific caspase with an ankyrin pro-domain.

One feature associated with decreased mutation is higher expression level, which depends on environmental cues. To understand the magnitude of expression-dependent mutation rate variation, we perturbed expression through a heat treatment in Arabidopsis thaliana. We quantified gene expression to identify differentially expressed genes, which we then targeted for mutation detection using duplex sequencing. This approach provided a highly accurate measurement of the frequency of rare somatic mutations in vegetative plant tissues, which has been a recent source of uncertainty. Somatic mutations in plants may be useful for understanding drivers of DNA damage and repair in the germline since plants experience late germline segregation and both somatic and germline cells share common repair machinery. We included mutant lines lacking mismatch repair (MMR) and base excision repair (BER) capabilities to understand how repair mechanisms may drive biased mutation accumulation. We found wild-type (WT) and BER mutant mutation frequencies to be very low (mean variant frequency 1.8 × 10-8 and 2.6 × 10-8, respectively), while MMR mutant frequencies were significantly elevated (1.13 × 10-6). Interestingly, in the MMR mutant lines, there was no difference in the somatic mutation frequencies between temperature treatments or between highly versus lowly expressed genes. The extremely low somatic variant frequencies in WT plants indicate that larger datasets will be needed to address fundamental evolutionary questions about whether environmental change leads to gene-specific changes in mutation rate.</p>","PeriodicalId":12779,"journal":{"name":"Genome Biology and Evolution","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2024-10-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11489876/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142371626","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Roughly 27% of extant Asparagus species are dioecious, while the remaining are bisexual with monoclinous flowers. As such, Asparagus is an ideal model taxon for studying early stages of dioecy and sex chromosome evolution in plants. Until now, however, understanding of diversification and shifts from hermaphroditism to dioecy in Asparagus has been hampered by the lack of robust species tree estimates for the genus. In this study, a genus-wide phylogenomic analysis including 1726 nuclear loci and comprehensive species sampling supports two independent origins of dioecy in Asparagus—first in a widely distributed Eurasian clade, then again in a clade restricted to the Mediterranean Basin. Modeling of ancestral biogeography indicates that both dioecy origins were associated with range expansion out of southern Africa. Our findings also revealed several bursts of diversification across the phylogeny, including an initial radiation in southern Africa that gave rise to 12 major clades in the genus, and more recent radiations that have resulted in paraphyly and polyphyly among closely related species, as expected given active speciation processes. Lastly, we report that the geographic origin of domesticated garden asparagus (Asparagus officinalis L.) was likely in western Asia near the Mediterranean Sea. The presented phylogenomic framework for Asparagus is foundational for ongoing genomic investigations of diversification and functional trait evolution in the genus and contributes to its utility for understanding the origin and early evolution of dioecy and sex chromosomes.","PeriodicalId":12779,"journal":{"name":"Genome Biology and Evolution","volume":"45 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2024-09-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142263373","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
