With appropriate probes, oligonucleotide-based FISH is a highly effective method for chromosome identification. However, there are no available probes for M. polymorpha. In this study, we isolated five tandem repeats from the M. polymorpha genome, named Mp51, Mp139, Mp167, Mp179, and Mp497. Mp51 showed two pairs of signals located at the pericentromere. Mp139 exhibited four pairs of signals, located at the pericentromere and short arm of chromosomes. Mp167 and Mp179 showed seven pairs of signals, respectively, concentrated in the pericentromere. Mp497 exhibited three pairs of signals, distributed across the pericentromere and proximal position of the chromosomes. The combined FISH results of Mp51 and Mp139 oligo probes with 5S rDNA and 18S-26S rDNA probes demonstrated distinct signal patterns for each chromosome, enabling the precise identification of all chromosome pairs. Finally, the visual identification of M. polymorpha chromosomes was resolved. This will provide useful cytological information for studying the chromosomal structure and behavior of M. polymorpha.","PeriodicalId":12809,"journal":{"name":"Genome","volume":"68 ","pages":"1-8"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143515477","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}

This study investigated the inbreeding and genetic diversity of 50 emus from various farms in Japan using Double digest restriction-site associated DNA sequencing (ddRAD-seq) markers. Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) calling revealed 171 975 high-quality SNPs while runs of homozygosity (ROH) analysis identified 1843 homozygous segments, with an average of 36.86 ROH per individual and a mean genome length of 27 Mb under ROH. The majority (86%) of ROH were short (0.5-1 Mb), indicating ancient or remote inbreeding. The average genomic inbreeding coefficient (FROH) was 0.0228, suggesting nearly no inbreeding. Overlapping ROH regions were identified, with top consensus regions found on chromosomes 8 and Z. Seven candidate genes related to egg production, feather development, and energy metabolism were annotated in these regions. The findings highlight the prevalence of genetic diversity and low inbreeding levels in the studied emu population. This research highlights the potentiality of random mating in genetic management and conservation of emus. Further studies should focus on enhancing productive traits through selective breeding while preserving genetic diversity to ensure the sustainable growth of the emu farming.","PeriodicalId":12809,"journal":{"name":"Genome","volume":" ","pages":"1-8"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142817788","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}

To enhance understanding of chromosomal evolution in this order, we conducted conventional and molecular cytogenetic analysis in five species, named Sula dactylatra, Sula leucogaster, Sula sula (Sulidae), Fregata magnificens (Fregatidae), and Nannopterum brasilianum (Phalacrocoracidae). The diploid chromosome number for S. dactylatra and S. leucogaster was established as 2n = 76 in males, and 2n = 75 in females, but S. sula displayed a karyotype of 2n = 76 chromosomes in males. The disparity in diploid chromosome numbers between male and female Sula is due to a multiple sex chromosome system of the Z1Z1Z2Z2/Z1Z2W type. We propose that the emergence of this multiple-sex chromosome system resulted from a Robertsonian translocation involving the W chromosome and the smallest microchromosome. Fregata magnificens exhibited a diploid number 76 (2n = 76), while N. brasilianum displayed a diploid number of 74 (2n = 74) in both sexes. The ribosomal cluster was located in one microchromosome pair in S. dactylatra, S. leucogaster, S. sula, and F. magnificens and in four pairs in N. brasilianum. Our findings provide evidence of a conserved multiple-sex chromosome system within the Sula genus, shedding light on the high karyotype diversity in Suliformes.","PeriodicalId":12809,"journal":{"name":"Genome","volume":" ","pages":"1-11"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143064945","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}

Initiatives focusing on awareness, conservation, and informed breeding can greatly enhance the recognition and welfare of the unique Indian canine heritage. This study describes the design and development of a high-density SNP array for genomic characterization of Indian dogs. Paired-end (150 bp) DNA sequences of 48 samples from four diverse dog populations were generated with 10× coverage, following the standard pipeline of Axiom Array technology for chip design. More than 23 million raw SNPs were initially identified, with 629 597 SNP markers ultimately tiled on the Indian canine array (Axiom_Shwaan) after stringent filtering and processing. With an inter-marker distance of 3.8 kb the Axiom_Shwaan greatly increases the canine genome coverage. The array was validated by genotyping 186 samples representing 11 dog breeds/populations from India. The high call rate (99%) of SNPs on the designed chip indicates its suitability for use in Indian dog populations, reflecting sufficient genetic diversity. The principal component and phylogenetic analyses delineated the native dog breeds into discrete groups. This high-density SNP array will empower future applications in population genetics, breed/selection signature identification, development of trait-specific biomarkers, and genome-wide data mining for various canine abilities.","PeriodicalId":12809,"journal":{"name":"Genome","volume":" ","pages":"1-12"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143051636","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}

The Prochilodontidae family, which includes 21 Neotropical fish species, is characterized by a conserved karyotype of 2n = 54 biarmed chromosomes, with variation in some species and populations regarding the presence or absence of B chromosomes. This study aimed to investigate whether the chromosomal distribution of specific satDNA sequences is conserved among three Prochilodus species (Prochilodus lineatus, Prochilodus costatus, and Prochilodus argenteus) regarding organization and number of loci, and to compare their genomes using comparative genomic hybridization (CGH). Our results demonstrated that most satDNA sequences share a similar distribution pattern across the three species, and CGH analysis corroborated that their karyotypes are very similar in terms of repetitive DNA distribution. We also identified a potential CENP-B box sequence within PliSat01, a satDNA located in the pericentromeric region of all analyzed species. In contrast, PliSat04 and PliSat14 displayed differential locations and variations in the number of loci per genome, underscoring the dynamic nature of repetitive sequences even in species with otherwise highly conserved genomes. These findings represent the first evidence of karyotype diversification in Prochilodus, highlighting the evolutionary dynamism of satDNA sequences.","PeriodicalId":12809,"journal":{"name":"Genome","volume":" ","pages":"1-8"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142545116","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}

Despite extensive study, causal variants and molecular diagnosis remain elusive. There is both heterogeneity of the phenotype, as well as the genetic landscape associated with phenotype, which includes both inherited and de novo mutations. Currently, diagnosis is complex and behaviourally based, oftentimes occurring years after the ideal 1-2 years of age. Structural variants (SVs) are large and sometimes complex genomic variants that are likely underrepresented contributors to ASD due to the limitations of short-read DNA sequencing, such as alignment in repetitive regions and regions with GC bias. Here, we performed long-read sequencing (LRS) on four individuals with autism spectrum disorder to delineate SV complexity and determine precise breakpoints for SVs, which was not possible with short-read whole-genome sequencing (SRS). We use LRS to interrogate the methylation pattern associated with the SVs and phase the SV haplotypes to further clarify their contribution to disorder. LRS allows insight into the genome and methylome that allow us to uncover variant complexity and contribution that was previously unseen with SRS. Ultimately, this furthers precision diagnosis and contributes to individualized treatment for affected individuals and their families within the clinic.","PeriodicalId":12809,"journal":{"name":"Genome","volume":" ","pages":"1-8"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142817789","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}

The results showed that a B subgenome ancestor diverged from Ae. speltoides more than 4 MYA and either has not yet been discovered, or is extinct. To further explore the evolutionary relationship between wheat and Ae. speltoides and develop Ae. speltoides chromosome paints, we performed comparative analysis of repetitive fractions of the S genome and three subgenomes of hexaploid wheat. The low-coverage sequence data were analyzed with RepeatExplorer pipeline to annotate repeats and estimate their content. The LTR-retrotransposons comprised about 80% of repeats in Ae. speltoides and wheat datasets and about two-third of them were LTR/Ty3-Gypsy. Ae. speltoides had 1.5 times more LTR/Ty-Copia repeats and 1.5 times less DNA transposons than wheat subgenomes. Several S genome-specific dispersed repeats were found and annotated.
