RESUMO

Recent advances in genetic manipulation such as triploid breeding and artificial selection, have rapidly emerged as valuable hatchery methodologies for enhancing seafood stocks. The Pacific oyster Magallana gigas is a leading aquaculture species worldwide and key ecosystem engineer that has received particular attention in this field of science. In light of the growing recognition of the ecological effects of intraspecific variation, oyster polyploids provide a valuable opportunity to assess whether intraspecific diversity affects physiological responses to environmental stressors. While the responses of diploid and triploid oysters to climate change have been extensively investigated, research on their sensitivity to environmental pollution remains scarce. Here, we assess whether genotypic (i.e., ploidy) variation within Magallana gigas affects physiological responses to microplastic pollution. We show that diploid and triploid M. gigas have similar clearance rates and ingest similar amounts of microplastics under laboratory-controlled condition. In addition, they exhibited similar heart rates after prolonged exposure to microplastic leachates. Our findings suggest that intraspecific variations within M. gigas ploidy does not affect oyster responses to microplastic pollution. However, regardless of ploidy, our work highlights significant adverse effects of microplastic leachates on the heart rate of M. gigas and provides evidence of microplastic ingestion in the laboratory.

RESUMO

Nanos are RNA-binding proteins playing crucial roles in germ cell development and maintenance. Based on phylogenetic and synteny analyses, this study reveals that nanos1 gene has undergone multiple duplications and gene copies losses in Vertebrates. Chondrichthyan species display two nanos1 genes (named nanos1A/1B), which were both retrieved in some Osteichthyes at basal positions in Sarcopterygii and Actinopterygii lineages. In contrast, Teleosts have lost nanos1A but duplicated nanos1B leading to the emergence of two ohnologs (nanos1Ba/1Bb), whereas Tetrapods have lost nanos1B gene. The two successive nanos gene duplications may result from the second and third whole genome duplication events at the basis of Vertebrates and Teleosts respectively. The expression profiles of nanos1A and nanos1B paralogs were characterized in the dogfish, Scyliorhinus canicula. Nanos1A was strongly expressed in brain and also localized in all germ cell types in the polarized testis. In contrast, nanos1B was detected in testis with the highest expression in the germinative zone. In addition, Nanos1B protein was predominantly located in the nuclei of male germinal cells. In the ovary, both paralogs were detected in germinal and somatic cells. Our study opens new perspectives concerning the complex evolution of nanos1 paralogs and their potential distinct roles in Vertebrates gonads.
