雌雄异体动物中的性别差异是普遍存在的,并且是由基因表达差异造成的。据预测,性选择的提高会增加偏雄性基因的数量和表达,并且在果蝇上实验性地实行一夫一妻制导致了转录组的相对女性化。在这里,我们通过对另一种一妻多夫物种 D.pseudoobscura 进行 150 代的实验性一夫一妻制或高级一夫多妻制,进一步检验了这一假设。我们发现性别偏向基因的表达确实发生了变化,但与预测相反,一夫一妻制下转录组通常会男性化,尽管这取决于组织和性别。我们还识别并描述了求爱经历后的基因表达变化。求爱通常会影响基因表达,包括性别偏见基因表达模式。我们的结果证实,交配系统操纵不成比例地影响性别偏见的基因表达,但表明变化的方向是动态的且不可预测的。人们认为对雄性的性选择有利于偏向雄性的基因表达。在这里,Veltsos 等人。在不同的交配系统下实验进化果蝇,与预期相反,最常见的是在一夫一妻制下而不是在一夫多妻制下发现转录组的雄性化。
Sex differences in dioecious animals are pervasive and result from gene expression differences. Elevated sexual selection has been predicted to increase the number and expression of male-biased genes, and experimentally imposing monogamy on Drosophila melanogaster has led to a relative feminisation of the transcriptome. Here, we test this hypothesis further by subjecting another polyandrous species, D. pseudoobscura, to 150 generations of experimental monogamy or elevated polyandry. We find that sex-biased genes do change in expression but, contrary to predictions, there is usually masculinisation of the transcriptome under monogamy, although this depends on tissue and sex. We also identify and describe gene expression changes following courtship experience. Courtship often influences gene expression, including patterns in sex-biased gene expression. Our results confirm that mating system manipulation disproportionately influences sex-biased gene expression but show that the direction of change is dynamic and unpredictable. Sexual selection on males is thought to favour male-biased gene expression. Here, Veltsos et al. experimentally evolve Drosophila pseudoobscura under different mating systems and, contrary to expectation, most often find masculinization of the transcriptome under monogamy rather than under elevated polyandry.
