Genome-wide DNA Methylation and Gene Expression Patterns of Androgenetic Haploid Tiger Pufferfish (Takifugu Rubripes) Provide Insights into Haploid Syndrome
Abstract:Androgenesis is an important chromosome set manipulation technique used in sex control in aquaculture. Haploid embryos exhibit haploid syndrome and show abnormalities and even die during early embryonic development. In this study, we used whole genome bisulfite sequencing (WGBS) to investigate the genome-wide DNA methylation profiles in haploid females (1n-X) and males (1n-Y), and diploid females (2n-XX) and males (2n-XY) of tiger pufferfish (Takifugu rubripes), an economically important fish in China.
