    Description: Brazil has experienced an unprecedented epidemic of Zika virus (ZIKV), with ~30,000 cases reported to date. ZIKV was first detected in Brazil in May 2015, and cases of microcephaly potentially associated with ZIKV infection were identified in November 2015. We performed next-generation sequencing to generate seven Brazilian ZIKV genomes sampled from four self-limited cases, one blood donor, one fatal adult case, and one newborn with microcephaly and congenital malformations. Results of phylogenetic and molecular clock analyses show a single introduction of ZIKV into the Americas, which we estimated to have occurred between May and December 2013, more than 12 months before the detection of ZIKV in Brazil. The estimated date of origin coincides with an increase in air passengers to Brazil from ZIKV-endemic areas, as well as with reported outbreaks in the Pacific Islands. ZIKV genomes from Brazil are phylogenetically interspersed with those from other South American and Caribbean countries. Mapping mutations onto existing structural models revealed the context of viral amino acid changes present in the outbreak lineage; however, no shared amino acid changes were found among the three currently available virus genomes from microcephaly cases. Municipality-level incidence data indicate that reports of suspected microcephaly in Brazil best correlate with ZIKV incidence around week 17 of pregnancy, although this correlation does not demonstrate causation. Our genetic description and analysis of ZIKV isolates in Brazil provide a baseline for future studies of the evolution and molecular epidemiology of this emerging virus in the Americas.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Faria, Nuno Rodrigues -- Azevedo, Raimunda do Socorro da Silva -- Kraemer, Moritz U G -- Souza, Renato -- Cunha, Mariana Sequetin -- Hill, Sarah C -- Theze, Julien -- Bonsall, Michael B -- Bowden, Thomas A -- Rissanen, Ilona -- Rocco, Iray Maria -- Nogueira, Juliana Silva -- Maeda, Adriana Yurika -- Vasami, Fernanda Giseli da Silva -- Macedo, Fernando Luiz de Lima -- Suzuki, Akemi -- Rodrigues, Sueli Guerreiro -- Cruz, Ana Cecilia Ribeiro -- Nunes, Bruno Tardeli -- Medeiros, Daniele Barbosa de Almeida -- Rodrigues, Daniela Sueli Guerreiro -- Nunes Queiroz, Alice Louize -- da Silva, Eliana Vieira Pinto -- Henriques, Daniele Freitas -- Travassos da Rosa, Elisabeth Salbe -- de Oliveira, Consuelo Silva -- Martins, Livia Caricio -- Vasconcelos, Helena Baldez -- Casseb, Livia Medeiros Neves -- Simith, Darlene de Brito -- Messina, Jane P -- Abade, Leandro -- Lourenco, Jose -- Carlos Junior Alcantara, Luiz -- de Lima, Maricelia Maia -- Giovanetti, Marta -- Hay, Simon I -- de Oliveira, Rodrigo Santos -- Lemos, Poliana da Silva -- de Oliveira, Layanna Freitas -- de Lima, Clayton Pereira Silva -- da Silva, Sandro Patroca -- de Vasconcelos, Janaina Mota -- Franco, Luciano -- Cardoso, Jedson Ferreira -- Vianez-Junior, Joao Lidio da Silva Goncalves -- Mir, Daiana -- Bello, Gonzalo -- Delatorre, Edson -- Khan, Kamran -- Creatore, Marisa -- Coelho, Giovanini Evelim -- de Oliveira, Wanderson Kleber -- Tesh, Robert -- Pybus, Oliver G -- Nunes, Marcio R T -- Vasconcelos, Pedro F C -- 090532/Z/09/Z/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- 095066/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- 102427/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- MR/L009528/1/Medical Research Council/United Kingdom -- R24 AT 120942/AT/NCCIH NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2016 Apr 15;352(6283):345-9. doi: 10.1126/science.aaf5036.

    Description: We present an Aboriginal Australian genomic sequence obtained from a 100-year-old lock of hair donated by an Aboriginal man from southern Western Australia in the early 20th century. We detect no evidence of European admixture and estimate contamination levels to be below 0.5%. We show that Aboriginal Australians are descendants of an early human dispersal into eastern Asia, possibly 62,000 to 75,000 years ago. This dispersal is separate from the one that gave rise to modern Asians 25,000 to 38,000 years ago. We also find evidence of gene flow between populations of the two dispersal waves prior to the divergence of Native Americans from modern Asian ancestors. Our findings support the hypothesis that present-day Aboriginal Australians descend from the earliest humans to occupy Australia, likely representing one of the oldest continuous populations outside Africa.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3991479/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3991479/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Rasmussen, Morten -- Guo, Xiaosen -- Wang, Yong -- Lohmueller, Kirk E -- Rasmussen, Simon -- Albrechtsen, Anders -- Skotte, Line -- Lindgreen, Stinus -- Metspalu, Mait -- Jombart, Thibaut -- Kivisild, Toomas -- Zhai, Weiwei -- Eriksson, Anders -- Manica, Andrea -- Orlando, Ludovic -- De La Vega, Francisco M -- Tridico, Silvana -- Metspalu, Ene -- Nielsen, Kasper -- Avila-Arcos, Maria C -- Moreno-Mayar, J Victor -- Muller, Craig -- Dortch, Joe -- Gilbert, M Thomas P -- Lund, Ole -- Wesolowska, Agata -- Karmin, Monika -- Weinert, Lucy A -- Wang, Bo -- Li, Jun -- Tai, Shuaishuai -- Xiao, Fei -- Hanihara, Tsunehiko -- van Driem, George -- Jha, Aashish R -- Ricaut, Francois-Xavier -- de Knijff, Peter -- Migliano, Andrea B -- Gallego Romero, Irene -- Kristiansen, Karsten -- Lambert, David M -- Brunak, Soren -- Forster, Peter -- Brinkmann, Bernd -- Nehlich, Olaf -- Bunce, Michael -- Richards, Michael -- Gupta, Ramneek -- Bustamante, Carlos D -- Krogh, Anders -- Foley, Robert A -- Lahr, Marta M -- Balloux, Francois -- Sicheritz-Ponten, Thomas -- Villems, Richard -- Nielsen, Rasmus -- Wang, Jun -- Willerslev, Eske -- BB/H005854/1/Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council/United Kingdom -- BB/H008802/1/Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council/United Kingdom -- R01 HG003229/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2011 Oct 7;334(6052):94-8. doi: 10.1126/science.1211177.

    Description: Coffee is a valuable beverage crop due to its characteristic flavor, aroma, and the stimulating effects of caffeine. We generated a high-quality draft genome of the species Coffea canephora, which displays a conserved chromosomal gene order among asterid angiosperms. Although it shows no sign of the whole-genome triplication identified in Solanaceae species such as tomato, the genome includes several species-specific gene family expansions, among them N-methyltransferases (NMTs) involved in caffeine production, defense-related genes, and alkaloid and flavonoid enzymes involved in secondary compound synthesis. Comparative analyses of caffeine NMTs demonstrate that these genes expanded through sequential tandem duplications independently of genes from cacao and tea, suggesting that caffeine in eudicots is of polyphyletic origin.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Denoeud, France -- Carretero-Paulet, Lorenzo -- Dereeper, Alexis -- Droc, Gaetan -- Guyot, Romain -- Pietrella, Marco -- Zheng, Chunfang -- Alberti, Adriana -- Anthony, Francois -- Aprea, Giuseppe -- Aury, Jean-Marc -- Bento, Pascal -- Bernard, Maria -- Bocs, Stephanie -- Campa, Claudine -- Cenci, Alberto -- Combes, Marie-Christine -- Crouzillat, Dominique -- Da Silva, Corinne -- Daddiego, Loretta -- De Bellis, Fabien -- Dussert, Stephane -- Garsmeur, Olivier -- Gayraud, Thomas -- Guignon, Valentin -- Jahn, Katharina -- Jamilloux, Veronique -- Joet, Thierry -- Labadie, Karine -- Lan, Tianying -- Leclercq, Julie -- Lepelley, Maud -- Leroy, Thierry -- Li, Lei-Ting -- Librado, Pablo -- Lopez, Loredana -- Munoz, Adriana -- Noel, Benjamin -- Pallavicini, Alberto -- Perrotta, Gaetano -- Poncet, Valerie -- Pot, David -- Priyono -- Rigoreau, Michel -- Rouard, Mathieu -- Rozas, Julio -- Tranchant-Dubreuil, Christine -- VanBuren, Robert -- Zhang, Qiong -- Andrade, Alan C -- Argout, Xavier -- Bertrand, Benoit -- de Kochko, Alexandre -- Graziosi, Giorgio -- Henry, Robert J -- Jayarama -- Ming, Ray -- Nagai, Chifumi -- Rounsley, Steve -- Sankoff, David -- Giuliano, Giovanni -- Albert, Victor A -- Wincker, Patrick -- Lashermes, Philippe -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2014 Sep 5;345(6201):1181-4. doi: 10.1126/science.1255274.

    Description: Asia harbors substantial cultural and linguistic diversity, but the geographic structure of genetic variation across the continent remains enigmatic. Here we report a large-scale survey of autosomal variation from a broad geographic sample of Asian human populations. Our results show that genetic ancestry is strongly correlated with linguistic affiliations as well as geography. Most populations show relatedness within ethnic/linguistic groups, despite prevalent gene flow among populations. More than 90% of East Asian (EA) haplotypes could be found in either Southeast Asian (SEA) or Central-South Asian (CSA) populations and show clinal structure with haplotype diversity decreasing from south to north. Furthermore, 50% of EA haplotypes were found in SEA only and 5% were found in CSA only, indicating that SEA was a major geographic source of EA populations.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉HUGO Pan-Asian SNP Consortium -- Abdulla, Mahmood Ameen -- Ahmed, Ikhlak -- Assawamakin, Anunchai -- Bhak, Jong -- Brahmachari, Samir K -- Calacal, Gayvelline C -- Chaurasia, Amit -- Chen, Chien-Hsiun -- Chen, Jieming -- Chen, Yuan-Tsong -- Chu, Jiayou -- Cutiongco-de la Paz, Eva Maria C -- De Ungria, Maria Corazon A -- Delfin, Frederick C -- Edo, Juli -- Fuchareon, Suthat -- Ghang, Ho -- Gojobori, Takashi -- Han, Junsong -- Ho, Sheng-Feng -- Hoh, Boon Peng -- Huang, Wei -- Inoko, Hidetoshi -- Jha, Pankaj -- Jinam, Timothy A -- Jin, Li -- Jung, Jongsun -- Kangwanpong, Daoroong -- Kampuansai, Jatupol -- Kennedy, Giulia C -- Khurana, Preeti -- Kim, Hyung-Lae -- Kim, Kwangjoong -- Kim, Sangsoo -- Kim, Woo-Yeon -- Kimm, Kuchan -- Kimura, Ryosuke -- Koike, Tomohiro -- Kulawonganunchai, Supasak -- Kumar, Vikrant -- Lai, Poh San -- Lee, Jong-Young -- Lee, Sunghoon -- Liu, Edison T -- Majumder, Partha P -- Mandapati, Kiran Kumar -- Marzuki, Sangkot -- Mitchell, Wayne -- Mukerji, Mitali -- Naritomi, Kenji -- Ngamphiw, Chumpol -- Niikawa, Norio -- Nishida, Nao -- Oh, Bermseok -- Oh, Sangho -- Ohashi, Jun -- Oka, Akira -- Ong, Rick -- Padilla, Carmencita D -- Palittapongarnpim, Prasit -- Perdigon, Henry B -- Phipps, Maude Elvira -- Png, Eileen -- Sakaki, Yoshiyuki -- Salvador, Jazelyn M -- Sandraling, Yuliana -- Scaria, Vinod -- Seielstad, Mark -- Sidek, Mohd Ros -- Sinha, Amit -- Srikummool, Metawee -- Sudoyo, Herawati -- Sugano, Sumio -- Suryadi, Helena -- Suzuki, Yoshiyuki -- Tabbada, Kristina A -- Tan, Adrian -- Tokunaga, Katsushi -- Tongsima, Sissades -- Villamor, Lilian P -- Wang, Eric -- Wang, Ying -- Wang, Haifeng -- Wu, Jer-Yuarn -- Xiao, Huasheng -- Xu, Shuhua -- Yang, Jin Ok -- Shugart, Yin Yao -- Yoo, Hyang-Sook -- Yuan, Wentao -- Zhao, Guoping -- Zilfalil, Bin Alwi -- Indian Genome Variation Consortium -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Dec 11;326(5959):1541-5. doi: 10.1126/science.1177074.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20007900" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: It is predicted that climate change will cause species extinctions and distributional shifts in coming decades, but data to validate these predictions are relatively scarce. Here, we compare recent and historical surveys for 48 Mexican lizard species at 200 sites. Since 1975, 12% of local populations have gone extinct. We verified physiological models of extinction risk with observed local extinctions and extended projections worldwide. Since 1975, we estimate that 4% of local populations have gone extinct worldwide, but by 2080 local extinctions are projected to reach 39% worldwide, and species extinctions may reach 20%. Global extinction projections were validated with local extinctions observed from 1975 to 2009 for regional biotas on four other continents, suggesting that lizards have already crossed a threshold for extinctions caused by climate change.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Sinervo, Barry -- Mendez-de-la-Cruz, Fausto -- Miles, Donald B -- Heulin, Benoit -- Bastiaans, Elizabeth -- Villagran-Santa Cruz, Maricela -- Lara-Resendiz, Rafael -- Martinez-Mendez, Norberto -- Calderon-Espinosa, Martha Lucia -- Meza-Lazaro, Rubi Nelsi -- Gadsden, Hector -- Avila, Luciano Javier -- Morando, Mariana -- De la Riva, Ignacio J -- Victoriano Sepulveda, Pedro -- Rocha, Carlos Frederico Duarte -- Ibarguengoytia, Nora -- Aguilar Puntriano, Cesar -- Massot, Manuel -- Lepetz, Virginie -- Oksanen, Tuula A -- Chapple, David G -- Bauer, Aaron M -- Branch, William R -- Clobert, Jean -- Sites, Jack W Jr -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2010 May 14;328(5980):894-9. doi: 10.1126/science.1184695.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, University of California, Santa Cruz, CA 95064, USA. lizardrps@gmail.com〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20466932" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Species interaction networks are shaped by abiotic and biotic factors. Here, as part of the Tara Oceans project, we studied the photic zone interactome using environmental factors and organismal abundance profiles and found that environmental factors are incomplete predictors of community structure. We found associations across plankton functional types and phylogenetic groups to be nonrandomly distributed on the network and driven by both local and global patterns. We identified interactions among grazers, primary producers, viruses, and (mainly parasitic) symbionts and validated network-generated hypotheses using microscopy to confirm symbiotic relationships. We have thus provided a resource to support further research on ocean food webs and integrating biological components into ocean models.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Lima-Mendez, Gipsi -- Faust, Karoline -- Henry, Nicolas -- Decelle, Johan -- Colin, Sebastien -- Carcillo, Fabrizio -- Chaffron, Samuel -- Ignacio-Espinosa, J Cesar -- Roux, Simon -- Vincent, Flora -- Bittner, Lucie -- Darzi, Youssef -- Wang, Jun -- Audic, Stephane -- Berline, Leo -- Bontempi, Gianluca -- Cabello, Ana M -- Coppola, Laurent -- Cornejo-Castillo, Francisco M -- d'Ovidio, Francesco -- De Meester, Luc -- Ferrera, Isabel -- Garet-Delmas, Marie-Jose -- Guidi, Lionel -- Lara, Elena -- Pesant, Stephane -- Royo-Llonch, Marta -- Salazar, Guillem -- Sanchez, Pablo -- Sebastian, Marta -- Souffreau, Caroline -- Dimier, Celine -- Picheral, Marc -- Searson, Sarah -- Kandels-Lewis, Stefanie -- Tara Oceans coordinators -- Gorsky, Gabriel -- Not, Fabrice -- Ogata, Hiroyuki -- Speich, Sabrina -- Stemmann, Lars -- Weissenbach, Jean -- Wincker, Patrick -- Acinas, Silvia G -- Sunagawa, Shinichi -- Bork, Peer -- Sullivan, Matthew B -- Karsenti, Eric -- Bowler, Chris -- de Vargas, Colomban -- Raes, Jeroen -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2015 May 22;348(6237):1262073. doi: 10.1126/science.1262073.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Microbiology and Immunology, Rega Institute KU Leuven, Herestraat 49, 3000 Leuven, Belgium.

    Notes: Abstract Phylogenetic and physiological methods were used to study the evolution of the opsin gene family in Drosophila. A phylogeny based on DNA sequences from 13 opsin genes including representatives from the two major subgenera of Drosophila shows six major, well-supported clades: The “blue opsin” clade includes all of the Rhl and Rh2 genes and is separated into two distinct subclades of Rhl sequences and Rh2 sequences; the ultraviolet opsin clade includes all Rh3 and Rh4 genes and bifurcates into separate Rh3 and Rh4 clades. The duplications that generated this gene family most likely took place before the evolution of the subgenera Drosophila and Sophophora and their component species groups. Numerous changes have occurred in these genes since the duplications, including the loss and/or gain of introns in the different genes and even within the Rhl and Rh4 clades. Despite these changes, the spectral sensitivity of each of the opsins has remained remarkably fixed in a sample of four species representing two species groups in each of the two subgenera. All of the strains that were investigated had R1-6 (Rhl) spectral sensitivity curves that peaked at or near 480 nm, R7 (Rh3 and Rh4) peaks in the ultraviolet range, and ocellar (Rh2) peaks near 420 nm. Each of the four gene clades on the phylogeny exhibits very conservative patterns of amino acid replacement in domains of the protein thought to influence spectral sen sitivity, reflecting strong constraints on the spectrum of light visible to Drosophila.

    Notes: Abstract  The genetic variation of 102 natural populations of wild barley growing in Spain was assessed using RAPDs (random amplified polymorphic DNA). The plant material included the annual species H. marinum subsp. marinum (22 populations) and subsp. gussoneanum (14), H. murinum subsp. murinum (7) and subsp. leporinum (35), and the perennial species H. bulbosum (17) and H. secalinum (7). Ten of the tested 64 arbitrary 10-mer primers amplified polymorphic DNA in all taxonomic units. Analyses was performed within and between populations, species and subspecies. The primers gave a total of 250 RAPD products. The level of polymorphism varied between taxonomic units depending on the primers employed and the plant reproductive system. In general, the most variable were the allogamous species H. secalinum and H. bulbosum and the autogamous H. marinum subsp. marinum. Among the amplified bands, 69 (27%) were shared by at least two different taxonomic units. The remaining bands were specific. The results demonstrate differences in the degree of similarity between taxonomic units. Jaccard’s similarity coefficients for interval measure within and between populations were used to produce a cluster diagram using the unweighted pair-group method (UPGMA). The different populations of the species and subspecies of Hordeum fell into three groups. The first group contained the populations belonging to both subspecies of H. marinum, plus those of H. secalinum. The populations of H. marinum subsp. gussoneanum were very closely associated. Those of H. marinum subsp. marinum were grouped in a broad cluster. The second group, occupying the innermost position of the tree, was very closely associated with the populations of both subspecies of H. murinum. The third branch segregated H. bulbosum. A series of RAPD markers were investigated by cleaving the amplified products of the same size with restriction endonucleases that recognize targets of 4- or 6-bp. The production of equivalent fragments following cleavage by the same enzyme would seem to demonstrate their homology in samples from different individuals, populations or taxonomic units.

    Notes: Abstract  Three repetitive DNA sequences were isolated from a genomic DNA library of the ornamental Alstroemeria aurea Graham. Two repeats, A001-I and A001-II, were quite homologous and highly A. aurea-specific. A001-I was a 217-bp sequence with several telomeric TTTAGGG repeats at the 5′ end and a unique sequence of 98 bp at the other end. The third repeat, A001-IV, was a 840-bp sequence which contained two sub-sequences of 56 and 74 bp respectively, previously found in chloroplast (cp) DNA of tobacco and spinach and to a lesser extent in the cpDNA of maize and rice. Repeat A001-IV was not species-specific and its hybridization signal was weaker than the other repeats. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) revealed the A. aurea-specific repeats to be located in the heterochromatic regions of all A. aurea chromosomes. The differences in FISH pattern make them useful tools for karyotype analysis. The non-species-specific sequence A001-IV gave a dispersed signal over all the Alstroemeria chromosomes in an interspecific hybrid. The potential use of these repetitive DNA sequences for the study of phylogenetic relationships within the genus Alstroemeria is discussed.

    Description: Evidence of simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) infection has been reported for 26 different species of African nonhuman primates. Two of these viruses, SIVcpz from chimpanzees and SIVsm from sooty mangabeys, are the cause of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) in humans. Together, they have been transmitted to humans on at least seven occasions. The implications of human infection by a diverse set of SIVs and of exposure to a plethora of additional human immunodeficiency virus-related viruses are discussed.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Hahn, B H -- Shaw, G M -- De Cock, K M -- Sharp, P M -- N01 AI 35338/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R01 AI 40951/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R01 AI 44596/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2000 Jan 28;287(5453):607-14.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Medicine, Howard Hughes Medical Institute, University of Alabama at Birmingham, Birmingham, AL 35294, USA. bhahn@uab.edu〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10649986" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
