Complex genetics cause and constrain fungal persistence in different parts of the mammalian body.
Determining how genetic polymorphisms enable certain fungi to persist in mammalian hosts can improve understanding of opportunistic fungal pathogenesis, a source of substantial human morbidity and mortality. We examined the genetic basis of fungal persistence in mice using a cross between a clinical isolate and the lab reference strain of the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Employing chromosomally encoded DNA barcodes, we tracked the relative abundances of 822 genotyped, haploid segregants in multiple organs over time and performed linkage mapping of their persistence in hosts. Detected loci showed a mix of general and antagonistically pleiotropic effects across organs. General loci showed similar effects across all organs, while antagonistically pleiotropic loci showed contrasting effects in the brain vs the kidneys, liver, and spleen. Persistence in an organ required both generally beneficial alleles and organ-appropriate pleiotropic alleles. This genetic architecture resulted in many segregants persisting in the brain or in nonbrain organs, but few segregants persisting in all organs. These results show complex combinations of genetic polymorphisms collectively cause and constrain fungal persistence in different parts of the mammalian body.
期刊介绍:
GENETICS is published by the Genetics Society of America, a scholarly society that seeks to deepen our understanding of the living world by advancing our understanding of genetics. Since 1916, GENETICS has published high-quality, original research presenting novel findings bearing on genetics and genomics. The journal publishes empirical studies of organisms ranging from microbes to humans, as well as theoretical work.
While it has an illustrious history, GENETICS has changed along with the communities it serves: it is not your mentor''s journal.
The editors make decisions quickly – in around 30 days – without sacrificing the excellence and scholarship for which the journal has long been known. GENETICS is a peer reviewed, peer-edited journal, with an international reach and increasing visibility and impact. All editorial decisions are made through collaboration of at least two editors who are practicing scientists.
GENETICS is constantly innovating: expanded types of content include Reviews, Commentary (current issues of interest to geneticists), Perspectives (historical), Primers (to introduce primary literature into the classroom), Toolbox Reviews, plus YeastBook, FlyBook, and WormBook (coming spring 2016). For particularly time-sensitive results, we publish Communications. As part of our mission to serve our communities, we''ve published thematic collections, including Genomic Selection, Multiparental Populations, Mouse Collaborative Cross, and the Genetics of Sex.
