项目摘要
Evolution of Photoperiodic Time Measurement and the Circadian Clock in Animals: Perspectives from the Pitcher-Plant Mosquito, Wyeomyia smithiiWilliam E. BradshawUniversity of Oregon EugeneEvolution of life cycles that are compatible with the changing seasons is a major feature of temperate organisms. No life cycle in a temperate zone like North America can be complete without the ability to exploit the favorable season, the ability to mitigate or avoid the unfavorable season, and the ability to switch from one lifestyle to the other on a timely basis. The most prominent switching mechanism used by temperate plants and animals to anticipate and prepare for the changing seasons is the length of day or photoperiod. Evolution of photoperiodic response is a major feature of the geographic dispersal of invading species and, as prior funding to this lab by NSF has recently shown, adaptation to rapid climate change. This research examines the physiological and genetic processes within and between populations that ultimately constitute the basis for the diversity of seasonal adaptations observed over a continental scale at temperate latitudes. The main objective of this work is to test whether there is a necessary, causal connection between the "daily" (circadian) clock controlling daily activities and the "seasonal" (photoperiodic) timer controlling seasonal activities. Daily activities include sleep-wakefulness patterns and hunger cycles in humans; disruption of the circadian clock is responsible for "jet lag." Seasonal cycles include migration in birds, hibernation in mammals, and dormancy and reproduction in a wide array of animals under natural conditions. The genetic basis of daily clocks is fairly well understood, but little is known about the genetic basis of the seasonal timer, let alone how the two processes relate to each other. The work in this proposal will test for the genetic flexibility of the connection between the daily and the seasonal timer by employing a set of artificial selection experiments. Knowledge of the potential interaction between these two timing mechanisms is fundamental to understanding how temperate organisms expand their ranges, time events as diverse as dormancy and reproduction, and cope with climate change. North America is undergoing a period of unprecedented climate change that is imposing strong natural selection for altering the timing of seasonal activities. The experiments to be run will show whether and how modification of the seasonal timer affects the daily clock and vice versa. Understanding the genetics underlying seasonal adaptation will assist in evaluating the survival of important agricultural crops, the spread of vector-borne diseases, the impact of agricultural pests, and the composition of natural biotic communities. This research lends itself well to undergraduate participation, not just as research assistants, but also as young investigators pursuing related but independent projects. Recent undergraduate students from this lab have continued on to graduate or medical school, to careers as teachers, applied biologists, lawyers, journalists, and to other professions not related to science. Regardless of their future endeavors, these students constitute an informed citizenry, more aware of basic research, its importance, and its implications. This research will continue a strong tradition and commitment to undergraduate research participation and training by this laboratory.
光周期的时间测量和动物中的昼夜节律的演变:俄勒冈州俄勒冈州Eugeneeeeevolutlity of Pitcher-plant蚊子的观点,俄勒冈州Eugeneeeevolive of Wermate Seasons的俄勒冈州Eugeneeevoluntority是俄勒冈州Eugeneeevoltolution的主要特征。 如果没有能力,可以利用有利的季节,减轻或避免不利的季节的能力以及及时切换到另一种生活方式的能力,没有能力减轻或避免不利的季节的能力,没有能力,就可以完成温带地区的生命周期。 温带植物和动物使用的最突出的切换机制是预测和准备变化的季节的长度或光周期。 光周期反应的演变是入侵物种地理扩散的主要特征,正如NSF对本实验室的先前资助一样,已显示对快速气候变化的适应。 这项研究研究了种群内和人群之间的生理和遗传过程,这些过程最终构成了温带纬度在大陆规模上观察到的季节性适应的基础。 这项工作的主要目的是测试控制日常活动的“每日”(昼夜节律)时钟与控制季节性活动的“季节性”(季节性”(光周期)(光周期)(光周期)(光周期)之间的必要因果关系。 日常活动包括人类的睡眠清除模式和饥饿周期;昼夜节律的破坏负责“喷气滞后”。 季节性周期包括鸟类的迁移,哺乳动物的冬眠以及在自然条件下各种动物的休眠和繁殖。 每日时钟的遗传基础知之甚少,但是对季节性计时器的遗传基础知之甚少,更不用说这两个过程如何相互关系了。 该提案中的工作将通过采用一组人工选择实验来测试日常和季节计时器之间联系的遗传灵活性。 了解这两种时序机制之间的潜在相互作用是了解温带生物如何扩展其范围,像休眠和繁殖一样多样化的时间事件以及应对气候变化的基础。 北美正在经历一段空前的气候变化时期,该时期正在为改变季节性活动的时机施加强烈的自然选择。 进行的实验将显示季节计时器的修改以及如何影响日常时钟,反之亦然。 了解季节性适应的遗传学将有助于评估重要农作物的生存,媒介传播疾病的传播,农业害虫的影响以及自然生物群落的组成。 这项研究非常适合本科参与,不仅是研究助理,而且作为年轻的调查员从事相关但独立的项目。 该实验室的最近的本科生继续毕业或医学院,从事教师,应用生物学家,律师,记者以及其他与科学无关的职业的职业。 无论他们未来的努力如何,这些学生都构成了知情的公民,更了解基础研究,重要性及其含义。 这项研究将继续具有强大的传统,并致力于本实验室的本科研究参与和培训。
