Journal Article
The allotetraploid origin and asymmetrical genome evolution of the common carp Cyprinus carpio
2019
Overview
Common carp (
Cyprinus carpio
) is an allotetraploid species derived from recent whole genome duplication and provides a model to study polyploid genome evolution in vertebrates. Here, we generate three chromosome-level reference genomes of
C. carpio
and compare to related diploid Cyprinid genomes. We identify a Barbinae lineage as potential diploid progenitor of
C. carpio
and then divide the allotetraploid genome into two subgenomes marked by a distinct genome similarity to the diploid progenitor. We estimate that the two diploid progenitors diverged around 23 Mya and merged around 12.4 Mya based on the divergence rates of homoeologous genes and transposable elements in two subgenomes. No extensive gene losses are observed in either subgenome. Instead, we find gene expression bias across surveyed tissues such that subgenome B is more dominant in homoeologous expression. CG methylation in promoter regions may play an important role in altering gene expression in allotetraploid
C. carpio
.
The common carp is derived from recent whole genome duplication and represents a model for polyploid genome evolution, rare in vertebrates. Here, the authors generate and analyse chromosome-level reference genomes for common carp, and describe subgenome gene expression changes.
