Abstract
Marine animals possess genomes of considerable complexity and heterozygosity. Their unique reproductive system, characterized by high fecundity and substantial early mortality rates, increases the risk of inbreeding, potentially leading to severe inbreeding depression during various larval developmental stages. In this study, we established a set of inbred families of Fenneropenaeus chinensis, with an inbreeding coefficient of 0.25, and investigated elimination patterns and the manifestations of inbreeding depression during major larval developmental stages. Reduced-representation genome sequencing was utilized to explore the genotype frequency characteristics across two typical elimination stages. The results revealed notable mortality in hatching and metamorphosis into mysis and post-larvae stages. Inbreeding depression was also evident during these developmental stages, with depression rates of 24.36%, 29.23%, and 45.28%. Segregation analysis of SNPs indicated an important role of gametic selection before hatching, accounting for 45.95% of deviation in the zoea stage. During the zygotic selection phase of larval development, homozygote deficiency and heterozygote excess were the main selection types. Summation of the two types explained 82.31% and 89.91% of zygotic selection in the mysis and post-larvae stage, respectively. The overall distortion ratio decreased from 22.37% to 12.86% in the late developmental stage. A total of 783 loci were identified through selective sweep analysis. We also found the types of distortion at the same locus could change after the post-larvae stage. The predominant shifts included a transition of gametic selection toward normal segregation and other forms of distortion to heterozygous excess. This may be attributed to high-intensity selection on deleterious alleles and genetic hitchhiking effects. Following larval elimination, a greater proportion of heterozygous individuals were preserved. We detected an increase in genetic diversity parameters such as expected heterozygosity, observed heterozygosity, and polymorphic information content in the post-larvae stage. These findings suggest the presence of numerous recessive deleterious alleles and their linkage and suggest a major role of the partial dominance hypothesis. The results provide valuable insights into the mechanisms of inbreeding depression in marine animals and offer guidance for formulating breeding strategies in shrimp populations.

[PMID: 38278276 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2024.170415] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/14/2023] [Revised: 01/15/2024] [Accepted: 01/22/2024] [Indexed: 01/28/2024]
Abstract
Astaxanthin (Axn), a feed additive, can improve growth performance and enhance the environmental stress tolerance of shrimp at all growth stages. High carbonate alkalinity is considered a major stressor that affects the survival, growth, and reproduction of aquatic animals in saline-alkaline waters. In this study, a combined analysis of physiology, transcriptomics, and metabolomics was performed to explore the effected mechanism of Axn on Exopalaemon carinicauda (E. carinicauda) under alkalinity stress. The results revealed that dietary Axn can inhibit oxidative stress damage caused by alkalinity stress and maintain the normal cell structure and mitochondrial membrane potential. Transcriptomic data indicated that differentially expressed genes (DEGs) under alkalinity stress and those under alkalinity stress after Axn feeding were associated with apoptosis. The metabolic data suggested that alkalinity stress has adverse effects on ammonia metabolism, unsaturated fatty acid metabolism, and TCA cycle, and dietary Axn can improve the metabolic processes in E. carinicauda. In addition, transcriptomics and metabolomics analyses showed that Axn could help maintain the cytoskeletal structure and inhibit apoptosis under alkalinity stress; a TUNEL assay further confirmed these effects. Lastly, metabolic responses to alkalinity stress included changes in multiple amino acids and unsaturated fatty acids, and pathways related to energy metabolism were downregulated in the hepatopancreas of E. carinicauda under alkalinity stress. Collectively, all these results provide new insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying alkalinity stress tolerance in E. carinicauda after Axn feeding.
