Mating flight causes genome-wide transcriptional changes in sexually mature honeybee queens
Xiaobo Wu,ZilongWang,Fei Zhang,Yuanyuan Shi,Zhijiang Zeng 한국응용곤충학회 2014 Journal of Asia-Pacific Entomology Vol.17 No.1
In this study, we analyzed the gene and miRNA expression differences between the courted virgin queen (CVQ) and non-courted virgin queen (NCVQ) of Apis mellifera using a high-throughput sequencing method. Through Digital Gene Expression (DGE) sequencing, 452 genes were differentially expressed, out of which, 90 genes were up-regulated and 362 genes were down-regulated in CVQ compared with NCVQ. Through small RNA sequencing, 27 miRNAs showed significant expression difference between these two samples. Moreover, 9 of the differentially expressed genes are the targets of the 11 differentially expressed miRNAs. Besides, 47 novel miRNA candidates were predicted in these two samples. Our results provided valuable information for understanding the molecular mechanism of the transition to functional queens.

DNA methylation comparison between 4-day-old queen and worker larvae of honey bee
Yuanyuan Shi,Hao Liu,Ya Feng Qiu,Zhi Yong Ma,Zhijiang Zeng 한국응용곤충학회 2017 Journal of Asia-Pacific Entomology Vol.20 No.1
The honey bee is a social insect that is famous for queen-worker differentiation. Numerous studies indicate that queen larvae (QL) and worker larvae (WL) have different expressed genes and proteins. DNA methylation has been found to play an important role in regulating gene expression. To further explore the roles of the methylated genes in queen-worker differentiation, we analyzed DNA methylome profiles of 4-day-old QL and WL (Apis mellifera). The results demonstrated that therewere 7.2 gigabases of sequence data fromsix methylated DNA immunoprecipitation libraries, and provided a genome-wide DNA methylation map as well as a gene expression map for 4-day-old QL andWL. The genome coverage of every samplewas 4.79. According to CpG representation, all promoters in the A. mellifera genome were classified into high CpG promoters, intermediate CpG promoters and low CpG promoters. The methylated cytosines of larvae were enriched in introns, followed by coding sequence regions, 2 K downstream of genes, 5′ untranslated regions (UTRs), 2 K upstream of genes, and 3′ UTRs. Compared with 4-day-oldWL, a number of genes in QL were down-methylated that were involved in biological regulation, immune system and metabolic regulation. In addition, these DMGs were involved in many signal pathways of caste differentiation such as Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), Notch, Insulin andWnt signaling pathways.

Odorant receptors play a crucial role in the special recognition of scent molecules in the honeybee olfaction system. The odorant receptor 11 (AmOR11) in western honeybee drones (Apis mellifera) has been demonstrated to specifically bind to 9-oxo-2-decenoic acid (9-ODA) of queens. However, little is known regarding the functions of OR11 Asian honeybee drones (Apis cerana) in the context of their mating activities. In this study, the odorant receptor 11 gene (AcOr11) from A. cerana was cloned, and its expression profiles were examined during two developmental stages (immature and sexually mature) and different physiological statuses (flying and crawling). The cDNA sequence of AcOr11 was highly similar to that of AmOr11, and encoded a membrane-coupled protein of 384 amino acids. The results of qRT-PCR indicated that AcOr11 was expressed at higher levels in drone antennae compared to brains, and the expression was significantly up-regulated in sexually mature drone brains compared to immature brains. Interestingly, AcOr11 expression in brains of mature flying drones was dramatically higher than those of mature crawling drones. To our knowledge, this study demonstrate a link between AcOr11 gene expression in the brain of honeybee drones and behavior associated with sexual maturity and mating flight.
