Genome report: Genome of the Amazon guppy (Poecilia bifurca) reveals conservation of sex chromosomes and dosage compensation.
The Amazon guppy, Poecilia bifurca, is a small live-bearing fish. The close relatives Poecilia reticulata, Poecilia picta, and Poecilia parae all share the same sex chromosome system, but with substantial diversity in the degree of Y degeneration and the extent of X chromosome dosage compensation. In order to identify if P. bifurca shares the same sex chromosome system, we built a female (XX) draft genome with 55X coverage of PacBio HiFi data, resulting in a 785 Mb assembly with 94.4% BUSCO completeness. We used this genome and found that P. bifurca shares the same sex chromosomes as related species and shows substantial Y chromosome degeneration. We combined this with RNA-Seq data and found similar expression of X-linked genes between sexes, revealing that P. bifurca also exhibits complete X chromosome dosage compensation. We further identify 11 putative autosome-to-Y gene duplications, 5 of which show gene expression in guppy male germ cells.
期刊介绍:
G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics provides a forum for the publication of high‐quality foundational research, particularly research that generates useful genetic and genomic information such as genome maps, single gene studies, genome‐wide association and QTL studies, as well as genome reports, mutant screens, and advances in methods and technology. The Editorial Board of G3 believes that rapid dissemination of these data is the necessary foundation for analysis that leads to mechanistic insights.
G3, published by the Genetics Society of America, meets the critical and growing need of the genetics community for rapid review and publication of important results in all areas of genetics. G3 offers the opportunity to publish the puzzling finding or to present unpublished results that may not have been submitted for review and publication due to a perceived lack of a potential high-impact finding. G3 has earned the DOAJ Seal, which is a mark of certification for open access journals, awarded by DOAJ to journals that achieve a high level of openness, adhere to Best Practice and high publishing standards.
