Sex chromosomes in meiotic, hemiclonal, clonal and polyploid hybrid vertebrates: along the ‘extended speciation continuum'

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B Biological Sciences, Journal Year: 2021, Volume and Issue: 376(1833), P. 20200103 - 20200103

We review knowledge about the roles of sex chromosomes in vertebrate hybridization and speciation, exploring a gradient divergences with increasing reproductive isolation (speciation continuum). Under early divergence, well-differentiated meiotic hybrids may cause Haldane-effects introgress less easily than autosomes. Undifferentiated are more susceptible to introgression form multiple (or new) chromosome systems hardly predictable dominance hierarchies. increased most vertebrates reach complete intrinsic isolation. Slightly earlier, some (linked ‘the extended speciation continuum') exhibit aberrant gametogenesis, leading towards female clonality. This facilitates evolution various allodiploid allopolyploid clonal (‘asexual’) hybrid vertebrates, where ‘asexuality' might be A comprehensive list ‘asexual' shows that they all evolved from parents were greater at intraspecific level (K2P-distances 5–22% based on mtDNA). These taxa inherited genetic determination by mostly undifferentiated chromosomes. Among few known sex-determining ‘asexuals', heterogamety (ZW) occurred twice as often male (XY). hypothesize pre-/meiotic aberrations all-female ZW-hybrids present promoting their evolution.

Recombination and selection against introgressed DNA

Evolution, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 77(4), P. 1131 - 1144

Published: Feb. 13, 2023

Abstract Introgressed DNA is often deleterious at many loci in the recipient species’ genome, and therefore purged by selection. Here, we use mathematical modeling whole-genome simulations to study influence of recombination on this process. We find that aggregate controls genome-wide rate purging early generations after admixture, when most rapid. Aggregate influenced number chromosomes heterogeneity their size, crossovers locations along chromosomes. A comparative prediction species with fewer should purge introgressed ancestry more profoundly, exhibit weaker genomic signals historical introgression. Turning within-genome patterns, show that, autosomal both sexes, expected sex than autosomes, all else equal. The opposite holds for without heterogametic sex. Finally, positive correlations between have recently been observed within genomes several species. these are likely driven not recombination’s effect unlinking neutral from alleles, but alleles themselves.

Origin and evolutionary trajectories of brown algal sex chromosomes

bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory), Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: unknown

Published: Jan. 16, 2024

SUMMARY Sex chromosomes fall into three classes: XX/XY, ZW/ZZ and U/V systems. The rise, evolution demise of systems have remained enigmatic to date. Here, we analyze genomes spanning the entire brown algal phylogeny decipher their sex-determination evolutionary history. birth sex evolved more than 250 million years ago, when a pivotal male-determinant located in discrete region proto-U proto-V ceased recombining. Over time, nested inversions led step-wise expansions, accompanying increasing morphological complexity sexual differentiation seaweeds. Unlike XX/XY ZW/ZZ, evolve mainly by gene gain, showing minimal degeneration. They are structurally dynamic, act as genomic ’cradles’ fostering new genes. Our analyses show that hermaphroditism arose from ancestral males acquired U-specific genes ectopic recombination, transition an system, V-specific moved down genetic hierarchy determination. Both events lead U V erosion specific characteristics. Taken together, our findings offer comprehensive model chromosome evolution.

Published: Jan. 5, 2024

Sex chromosomes play an outsized role in adaptation and speciation, thus deserve particular attention evolutionary genomics. In particular, fusions between sex autosomes can produce neo-sex chromosomes, which offer important insights into the dynamics of chromosomes. Here, we investigate origin previously reported Danaus chromosome within tribe Danaini. We assembled annotated genomes Tirumala septentrionis (subtribe Danaina), Ideopsis similis (Amaurina), Idea leuconoe (Euploeina) Lycorea halia (Itunina) identified their Z-linked scaffolds. found that resulting from fusion a Z autosome corresponding to Melitaea cinxia (McChr) 21 arose common ancestor Danaina, Amaurina Euploina. also two additional as W further fused with synteny block McChr31 I. independent occurred ancestral McChr12 L. halia. tested possible sexually antagonistic selection turnover by analysing genomic distribution sex-biased genes The McChr21 involved are significantly enriched female- male-biased genes, respectively, could have hypothetically facilitated fixation This suggests sexual antagonism Lepidoptera. neo-Z both appear fully compensated somatic tissues, but extent dosage compensation for varies across tissues species.

Abstract ‘Species’ are central to understanding the origin and dynamics of biological diversity; explaining why lineages split into multiple distinct species is one main goals evolutionary biology. However, existence often taken for granted, precisely what meant by whether they really exist as a pattern nature has rarely been modelled or critically tested. This novel book presents synthetic overview biology species, describing are, how form, consequences boundaries diversity evolution, patterns accumulation over time. The thesis that represent more than just unit taxonomy; model structured well groups related organisms evolve. author adopts an intentionally broad approach consider constitute, both theoretically empirically, we detect them, drawing on wealth examples from microbes multicellular organisms.

Sex chromosomes as supergenes of speciation: why amphibians defy the rules?

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B Biological Sciences, Journal Year: 2022, Volume and Issue: 377(1856)

Published: June 13, 2022

As reflected by the two rules of speciation (Haldane's rule and large X-/Z-effect), sex chromosomes are expected to behave like supergenes speciation: they recombine only in one (XX females or ZZ males), supposedly recruit sexually antagonistic genes evolve faster than autosomes, which can all contribute pre-zygotic post-zygotic isolation. While this has been mainly studied organisms with conserved sex-determining systems highly differentiated (heteromorphic) mammals, birds some insects, these expectations less clear organismal groups where repeatedly change remain mostly homomorphic, amphibians. In article, we review proposed roles sex-linked isolating nascent lineages throughout continuum discuss their support amphibians given current knowledge chromosome evolution modes. Given frequent recombination lack differentiation, argue that amphibian not become speciation, is rarity empirical studies consistent a ‘large effect’ frogs toads. The diversity high potential disentangle evolutionary mechanisms responsible for emergence other organisms. This article part theme issue ‘Genomic architecture supergenes: causes consequences’.
