Evolution and diversification of duplicated genes in Laccaria bicolor Dag Ahrén Microbial Ecology Lund University
Outline • Duplications in Laccaria bicolor • GC content of the Laccaria genome • Metabolic reconstruction of L. bicolor
Gene duplications Evolution of duplications Nonfunctionalization Pseudogene Subfunctionalization Neofunctionalization
Gene duplications Events leading to duplications Whole Genome Duplications (WGD) Segmental Duplications Tandem Duplications
Laccaria Gene duplications Whole genome duplications: 0 (B. Canbäck) Segmental duplications: 39 segments (B. Canbäck) 117 gene duplications Tandem duplications: 953 gene duplications (F. Martin)
Gene duplications Dn vs Ds Selection pressure Calculated through Dn/Ds ratio of gene duplications n=nonsynonymous substitutions s=synonymous substitutions Positive selection (Adaptation) Dn/Ds>1 Neutral selection (Relaxed) Dn/Ds=1 Negative selection (Purifying) Dn/Ds<1
10 pairs Dn/Ds>1 Recently duplicated Duplications that have gone to fixation Gene duplications Dn vs Ds Dn Tandem duplications Ds
Gene duplications Dn vs Ds Dn Segmental duplications 6 pairs Dn/Ds>1 Ds
Gene duplications Functional annotation of duplications with positive selection
Gene duplications Duplications with positive selection
Gene duplications Conclusions: • More than 1000 gene duplications have been evaluated. • 16 gene duplications are under positive selection • Mostly hypothetical proteins but with known domains. • WD40 Repeats common in genes under positive selection (5 pairs compared to 148 matches in the entire genome)
GC Percent GC content Isochore: A region of genomic DNA sequence in which G+C compositions are relatively uniform. (Nature glossary) Gene density Recombination

Length distribution Ustilago Coprinus Phanerochaete Laccaria B. Rajashekar
GC Conclusions: • Laccaria has a low %GC compared to the other basidiomycete genomes • Laccaria has isochores with lower %GC content than the rest of the genome • %GC is correlated with gene density and conservation between organisms • Genes tend to have a higher %GC than average • Laccaria have larger fraction genes of length <1000 • No correlation between GC3 and ENC is found in Laccaria
