Ecological Evolution of Natural Products: Interactions, Adaptation, and Genomic Insights

Explore the fascinating world of ecological interactions, adaptive evolution, scents, colors, flavors, and defense against pests and pathogens. Discover how gene clusters near telomeres impact evolution, conserved motifs in genomes, and the evolution of multi-gene families. Get insights into reliable ORF designations, sequence information, gene expression data, and recombination frequencies for a deeper understanding of biodiversity.

Presentation Transcript

  1. Natural products and ecological interactionsAdaptive evolution (i.e. “rapid”) Scents Colours Flavours Pests Pathogens Allelopathy

  2. The gene cluster is close to the telomere 15 kb Sad1 probe

  3. Where synteny breaks down… • Rapidly evolving regions of genomes • Conserved motifs shared by co-regulated genes • Determining the sequence of evolution of members of multigene families • Determining the sequence of evolution of combinations of genes

  4. Wish list • Reliable ORF designations; reliable sequence information • Sceptical of text annotation – prefer using a set of “probe” sequences or Pfam domains • Positional information – Genomic context • Searchable gene expression data (Genevestigator-like) • Recombination frequencies • Degree of divergence across accessions/species/broader
