Investigation of Natural Genetic Variation in the Circadian System of Drosophila melanogaster. II. Biometrical Analyses of Locomotor Activity Rhythms Recorded in Constant Darkness

The locomotor activity rhythms of 24 isochromosomal strains of Drosophila melanogaster were recorded in constant conditions, using an experimental design suitable for the serial screening with so many strains using limited equipment. The data obtained were subjected to biometrical genetic analysis. The results show that four characteristics of the rhythms (period, phase, definition, and waveform) display genetically based variation in expression and that each appears to be affected by a range of genes.

Molecular phylogeny of the Drosophila tripunctata and closely related species groups (Diptera: Drosophilidae)

We suggest a new phylogenetic hypothesis for the tripunctata radiation based on sequences of mitochondrial genes. Phylogenetic trees were reconstructed by parsimony, maximum likelihood and Bayesian methods. We performed tests for hypotheses of monophyly for taxonomic groups and other specific hypotheses. Results reject the monophyly for the tripunctata group whereas monophyly is not rejected for the tripunctata radiation and other specific groups within the radiation. Although most of the basal nodes were unresolved we were able to identify four clusters within the tripunctata radiation. These results suggest the collection of additional data before a proper taxonomic revision could be proposed.     

Allelic variation,fragment length analyses and population genetic models: a case study on Drosophila microsatellites*

The allelic variation of 16 microsatellite loci from selected species of the Drosophila melanogaster and D. obscura group was determined. Intra‐ and interspecific sequence comparisons allowed discrimination of mutations affecting the repetitive microsatellite from those affecting the flanking regions. The hypotheses that slippage needs a minimum number of repeats in order to become efficient with respect to microsatellite variability, and of an increased mutation rate with increased length of the microsatellite are supported by the results of our analyses. There is in particular at the interrupted complex microsatellite locus BICOID in the species of the D. obscura group, extensive variation in the flanking regions in addition to length and sequence variation of the repetitive microsatellite. The allelic variation at this locus can hardly be explained by slippage alone. Estimates of microsatellite variability by fragment length analyses will pick up only a minor fraction of allelic variation at such loci, and conclusions that are based on the stepwise mutation model will not hold.     

Different mechanisms underlie phenotypic plasticity and interspecific variation for a reproductive character in drosophilids (Insecta: Diptera)

The insect ovary is a modular structure, the functional unit of which is the ovariole. Ovariole number is positively correlated with potential reproductive output. Among drosophilids (Insecta: Diptera), ovariole number shows both phenotypic plasticity and substantial interspecific and interpopulational variation. Here we examine the mechanistic connection between phenotypic plasticity and genetically fixed variation in ovariole number within the melanogaster species group. When a laboratory population of Drosophila melanogaster was reared under reduced food conditions, differences in ovariole number were entirely due to alterations in cell differentiation during the wandering stage at the very end of larval development. Cell growth and cell death were not affected. When these same flies were reared under a variety of temperatures, ovariole number differences arose during the latter half of the third (final) larval instar. Cell differentiation was affected, although cell number was not, and ovariole number differences were established before metamorphosis. In contrast, genetically fixed, interspecific and interpopulational variability in ovariole number was caused by alterations in the dynamics of cell differentiation and by cell number differences. Furthermore, the stages affected were different in different species and populations in the melanogaster species group, ranging from the first (D. sechellia) through the middle of the third (D. simulans and D. mauritiana) larval stage. Therefore, the mechanistic bases for plasticity-based variability are largely distinct from the mechanistic bases for interspecific and interpopulational variability. Our results suggest that phenotypic plasticity indicates evolutionary flexibility in underlying ontogenetic processes.     

黑腹果蝇细胞谱系分析方法进展

对动物体内单个细胞的谱系进行分析有助于追踪其在发育过程中的作用,但是体内各种组织都是由很多形态、结构、功能各不相同的细胞构成的复杂系统,这种复杂性严重阻碍了对单个细胞的研究。嵌合克隆技术(Mosaic technique)和标记技术(Labeling technique)的出现为这一研究提供了强有力的手段。文章介绍了近几年来黑腹果蝇(Drosophila melanogaster)研究中常用的7种嵌合克隆标记方法,包括FRT介导的有丝分裂重组(FRT-mediated mitotic recombination)、MARCM(Mosaic analysis with a repressible cell marker)、TSG(Twin spotgenerator)、Twin-spot MARCM、Q-MARCM(Q system-based MARCM)、Coupled MARCM和G-TRACE(Gal4technique for real-time and clonal expression)技术,详述了这些技术的原理及应用,并对不同技术进行了对比。运用这些技术研究者可以从单细胞水平进行遗传学标记和操作,特别是在神经系统等复杂系统中追踪单个细胞的发育过程。果蝇中的这些技术也将为其他模式生物追踪细胞谱系提供参考。     

Synergy between stresses: an interaction between spaceflight‐associated conditions and the microgravity response

Gravity is the one constant, ubiquitous force that has shaped life on Earth over its 4.8 billion years of evolution. But the sheer inescapability of Earth’s gravitational pull has meant that its influence on Earth’s organisms is difficult to study. Neutralization of the gravity vector (so‐called simulated microgravity) by random movement in three‐dimensional space is the best option for Earth‐based experiments, with spaceflight alone offering the possibility to assess the effects of an extremely reduced gravitational field (microgravity). However, the technical constraints associated with spaceflight introduce complications that can compromise the interpretation of microgravity experiments. It can be unclear whether changes detected in these experiments reflect additional spaceflight‐related stresses (temperature shifts, vibrational effects, radiation exposure, and so on) as opposed to the loss of gravitational force per se. In this issue, Herranz et al. (2010) report a careful study in which the effects of simulated and actual microgravity on gene expression in Drosophila melanogaster were compared and the effects of the flight‐associated stresses on the microgravity responses were investigated. A striking finding emerged. The additional stresses associated with the spaceflight experiment altered the response to microgravity. Despite controlling for the effects of these stresses/constraints, the group found that responses to microgravity are much stronger in the stressed/constrained background than in its absence. This interaction of gravity with other environmental influences is a novel finding with important implications for microgravity research and other situations where multiple stress factors are combined.     

Inferring the demographic history of Drosophila subobscura from nucleotide variation at regions not affected by chromosomal inversions

Drosophila subobscura presents a rich and complex chromosomal inversion polymorphism. It can thus be considered a model system (i) to study the mechanisms originating inversions and how inversions affect the levels and patterns of variation in the inverted regions and (ii) to study adaptation at both the single‐gene and chromosomal inversion levels. It is therefore important to infer its demographic history as previous information indicated that its nucleotide variation is not at mutation–drift equilibrium. For that purpose, we sequenced 16 noncoding regions distributed across those parts of the J chromosome not affected by inversions in the studied population and possibly either by other selective events. The pattern of variation detected in these 16 regions is similar to that previously reported within different chromosomal arrangements, suggesting that the latter results would, thus, mainly reflect recent demographic events rather than the partial selective sweep imposed by the origin and frequency increase of inversions. Among the simple demographic models considered in our Approximate Bayesian Computation analysis of variation at the 16 regions, the model best supported by the data implies a population size expansion soon after the penultimate glacial period. This model constitutes a better null model, and it is therefore an important resource for subsequent studies aiming among others to uncover selective events across the species genome. Our results also highlight the importance of introducing the possibility of multiple hits in the coalescent simulations with an outgroup.     

Genes required for embryonic muscle development in Drosophila melanogaster A survey of the X chromosome

We have begun a genetic analysis to dissect the process of myogenesis by surveying the X chromosome of Drosophila melanogaster for mutations that affect embryonic muscle development. Using polarised light microscopy and antibody staining techniques we analysed embryos hemizygous for a series of 67 deletion mutations that together cover an estimated 85% of the X chromosome, or 16.5% of the genome. Whereas the mature wild type embryo has a regular array of contractile muscles that insert into the epidermis, 31 of the deletion mutants have defects in muscle pattern, contractility or both, that cannot be attributed simply to epidermal defects and identify functions required for wild type muscle development. We have defined mutant pattern phenotypes that can be described in terms of muscle absences, incomplete myoblast fusion, failure of attachment of the muscle to the epidermis or mispositioning of attachment sites. Thus muscle development can be mutationally disrupted in characteristic and interpretable ways. The areas of overlap of the 31 deletions define 19 regions of the X chromosome that include genes whose products are essential for various aspects of myogenesis. We conclude that our screen can usefully identify loci coding for gene products essential in muscle development.
