Presentation Transcript

  1. Endosymbiont Working group: Wolbachia genome analysis • Initial research interest: • Gene content differences between Wolbachia genomes • Functional category comparison between Wolbachia genomes • Comparative analysis between Wolbachia genomes and Anaplasma (closely related genus) genomes • Comparative analysis between Wolbachia genomes and host associated [arthropods] metagenome in IMG

  2. Introduction to Wolbachia • Gram-negative bacteria • Produce intracellular inherited infections in many invertebrates • Extremely common with 20-75% of all insects being infected • Infection of numerous non-insect invertebrates including nematodes, mites and spiders • Diverse phenotypes from infection, from endosymbiosis to reproductive parasitism as characterized by their ability to override chromosomal sex determination, induce partenogenesis, selectively kill males, influence sperm competition and generate cytoplasmic incompatibility in early embryos

  3. Wolbachia induced phenotypes Werren et al., 2008, Nature Reviews

  4. Wolbachia genome projects Werren et al., 2008, Nature Reviews

  5. Finished Wolbachia genomes in IMG Wolbachia endosymbiont of Culex quinquefasciatus Pel Wolbachia endosymbiont TRS of Brugia malayi Wolbachia endosymbiont of Drosophila melanogaster Wolbachia sp. wRi

  7. Endosymbiont Working group: Wolbachia genome analysis • Initial research interest: • Gene content differences between Wolbachia genomes • Functional category comparison between Wolbachia genomes • Comparative analysis between Wolbachia genomes and Anaplasma (closely related genus) genomes • Comparative analysis between Wolbachia genomes and host associated [arthropods] metagenome in IMG

  19. Introduction to Anaplasma • Gram-negative bacteria • Reside in host red blood cells and lead to the disease anaplasmosis, most commonly in tropical areas of the world • Requires intermediate tick hosts for maturation, and flies may act as mechanical vectors • Species of veterinary interest are found in cattle, sheep and goats
