Abstract
DNA methylation is an epigenetic alteration that impacts gene expression without changing the DNA sequence affecting an organism's phenotype. This study utilized a reduced representation bisulfite sequencing (RRBS) approach to investigate the patterns of DNA methylation in genetically selected Clarias magur stocks. RRBS generated 249.22 million reads, with an average of 490,120 methylation sites detected in various parts of genes, including exons, introns, and intergenic regions. A total of 896 differentially methylated regions (DMRs) were identified; 356 and 540 were detected as hyper-methylated and hypo-methylated regions, respectively. The DMRs and their association with overlapping genes were explored using whole genome data of magur, which revealed 205 genes in exonic, 210 in intronic, and 480 in intergenic regions. The analysis identified the maximum number of genes enriched in biological processes such as RNA biosynthetic process, response to growth factors, nervous system development, neurogenesis, and anatomical structure morphogenesis. Differentially methylated genes (DMGs) such as myrip, mylk3, mafb, egr3, ndnf, meis2a, foxn3, bmp1a, plxna3, fgf6, sipa1l1, mcu, cnot8, trim55b, and myof were associated with growth and development. The selected DMGs were analyzed using real-time PCR, which showed altered mRNA expression levels. This work offers insights into the epigenetic mechanisms governing growth performance regulation in magur stocks. This work provides a valuable resource of epigenetic data that could be integrated into breeding programs to select high-performing individuals.

Overcoming taxonomic challenges in DNA barcoding for improvement of identification and preservation of clariid catfish species. Genomics Inform 2023; 21:e39. [PMID: 37813635 PMCID: PMC10584641 DOI: 10.5808/gi.23038] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/09/2023] [Revised: 06/12/2023] [Accepted: 06/23/2023] [Indexed: 10/11/2023] Open
Abstract
DNA barcoding without assessing reliability and validity causes taxonomic errors of species identification, which is responsible for disruptions of their conservation and aquaculture industry. Although DNA barcoding facilitates molecular identification and phylogenetic analysis of species, its availability in clariid catfish lineage remains uncertain. In this study, DNA barcoding was developed and validated for clariid catfish. 2,970 barcode sequences from mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase I (COI) and cytochrome b (Cytb) genes and D-loop sequences were analyzed for 37 clariid catfish species. The highest intraspecific nearest neighbor distances were 85.47%, 98.03%, and 89.10% for COI, Cytb, and D-loop sequences, respectively. This suggests that the Cytb gene is the most appropriate for identifying clariid catfish and can serve as a standard region for DNA barcoding. A positive barcoding gap between interspecific and intraspecific sequence divergence was observed in the Cytb dataset but not in the COI and D-loop datasets. Intraspecific variation was typically less than 4.4%, whereas interspecific variation was generally more than 66.9%. However, a species complex was detected in walking catfish and significant intraspecific sequence divergence was observed in North African catfish. These findings suggest the need to focus on developing a DNA barcoding system for classifying clariid catfish properly and to validate its efficacy for a wider range of clariid catfish. With an enriched database of multiple sequences from a target species and its genus, species identification can be more accurate and biodiversity assessment of the species can be facilitated.
