Proliferation and copy number variation of BEL-like long terminal repeat retrotransposons within the Diabrotica virgifera virgifera genome

Abstract: The proliferation of retrotransposons within a genome can contribute to increased size and affect the function of eukaryotic genes. BEL/Pao-like long-terminal repeat (LTR) retrotransposons were annotated from the highly adaptable insect species Diabrotica virgifera virgifera, the Western corn rootworm, using survey sequences from bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) inserts and contigs derived from a low coverage nextgeneration genome sequence assembly. Eleven unique D. v. virgifera BEL elements were identifi… Show more

“…This inconsistency may be due to the variable nature of retrotransposons within the genome. In particular, the capacity of retrotransposons to proliferate within the genome allows for a higher chances of variable copy numbers (Laha et al 2002; Schistosoma japonicum Genome Sequencing and Functional Analysis Consortium, 2009; Han, 2010; Finnegan, 2012; Coates et al 2013). However, the details on the amounts and the exact mechanisms involved in the regulation of genome retrotransposon copy number is intricate and, as yet, unclear.…”

“…The known genome size of the standard barberi (n = 71) and D. undecimpunctata (n = 50) were collected from maize fields near Ames, Iowa, and Monmouth, Illinois, respectively. Each sample was pooled by species, flash-frozen in liquid nitrogen and ground in liquid nitrogen, and then DNA extracted from ~3.0 mg of tissue using the Qiagen DNeasy Blood and Tissue Extraction kit, with modifications as described (Coates et al, 2014). Two micrograms of extracted DNA was submitted to the Iowa State University DNA Facility (Ames, IA, USA) from which ~500bp insert indexed sequencing libraries were generated using the Illumina TruSeq…”
