Competitive growth experiments with a high-lipid Chlamydomonas reinhardtii mutant strain and its wild-type to predict industrial and ecological risks

<p>Key microalgal species are currently being exploited as biomanufacturing platforms using mass cultivation systems. The opportunities to enhance productivity levels or produce non-native compounds are increasing as genetic manipulation and metabolic engineering tools are rapidly advancing. Regardless of the end product, there are both environmental and industrial risks associated to open pond cultivation of mutant microalgal strains. A mutant escape could be detrimental to local biodiversity and increase the risk of algal blooms. Similarly, if the cultivation pond is invaded by a wild-type microalgae or the mutant reverts to wild-type phenotypes, productivity could be impacted. To investigate these potential risks, a response surface methodology was applied to determine the competitive outcome of two <em>Chlamydomonas reinhardtii</em> strains, a wild-type (CC-124) and a high-lipid accumulating mutant (CC-4333), grown in mixotrophic conditions, with differing levels of nitrogen and initial wild-type to mutant ratios. Results of the growth experiments show that mutant cells have double the exponential growth rate of the wild-type in monoculture. However, due to a slower transition from lag phase to exponential phase, mutant cells are outcompeted by the wild-type in every co-culture treatment. This suggests that, under the conditions tested, outdoor cultivation of the <em>C. reinhardtii</em> cell wall-deficient mutant strains does not carry a significant environmental risk to its wild-type in an escape scenario. Furthermore, lipid results show the mutant strain accumulates over 200% more TAGs per cell, at 50 mg/L NH<sub>4</sub>Cl, compared to the wild-type, therefore, the fragility of the mutant strain could impact on overall industrial productivity.</p>

The effects of sex on extinction dynamics of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii depend on the rate of environmental change

<p>The continued existence of sex, despite many the costs it entails, still lacks an adequate explanation, as previous studies demonstrated that the effects of sex are environment-dependent: sex enhances the rate of adaptation in changing environments, but the benefits level off in benign conditions. To the best of our knowledge, the potential impact of different patterns of environmental change on the magnitude of these benefits received less attention in theoretical studies. In this paper, we begin to explore this issue by examining the effect of the rate of environmental deterioration (negatively correlated with population survival rate), on the benefits of sex.</p> <p>To investigate the interplay of sex and the rate of environmental deterioration, we carried out a long-term selection experiment with a unicellular alga (<em>Chlamydomonas</em> <em>reinhardtii</em>), by manipulating mode of reproduction (asexual, facultative or obligate sexual) and the rate of environmental deterioration (an increase of salt concentration). We monitored both the population size and extinction dynamics.</p> <p>The results revealed that the relative advantage of sex increased at the intermediate rate and plateaued at the highest rate of environmental deterioration. Obligate sexual populations had the slowest extinction rate under the intermediate rate of environmental deterioration, while facultative sexuality was favoured under the high rate-treatment.</p> <p>To the best of our knowledge, our study is the first to demonstrate that the interplay of sex and the rate of environmental deterioration affects the probability of survival, which indicates that mode of reproduction may be an important determinant of survival of the anthropogenic-induced environmental change.</p>

Data from: Whole genome resequencing reveals extensive natural variation in the model green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii

We performed whole-genome resequencing of 12 field isolates and eight commonly studied laboratory strains of the model organism Chlamydomonas reinhardtii to characterize genomic diversity and provide a resource for studies of natural variation. Our data support previous observations that Chlamydomonas is among the most diverse eukaryotic species. Nucleotide diversity is ∼3% and is geographically structured in North America with some evidence of admixture among sampling locales. Examination of predicted loss-of-function mutations in field isolates indicates conservation of genes associated with core cellular functions, while genes in large gene families and poorly characterized genes show a greater incidence of major effect mutations. De novo assembly of unmapped reads recovered genes in the field isolates that are absent from the CC-503 assembly. The laboratory reference strains show a genomic pattern of polymorphism consistent with their origin as the recombinant progeny of a diploid zygospore. Large duplications or amplifications are a prominent feature of laboratory strains and appear to have originated under laboratory culture. Extensive natural variation offers a new source of genetic diversity for studies of Chlamydomonas, including naturally occurring alleles that may prove useful in studies of gene function and the dissection of quantitative genetic traits.

Cell size, chlorophyll fluorescence and cadmium bioaccumulation between wild-type and mutant strains of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii upon exposure to cadmium

<p>Heavy metal contamination presents a constant threat to biological systems. Simultaneously, heavy metals have become one of the major contaminants in the aquatic ecosystem. In this regard, the investigation of heavy metal-tolerance genes in algae is relevant. <i>Chlamydomonas reinhardtii</i> is a unicellular green alga, and an excellent model organism used in heavy metal studies. In <i>C. reinhardtii</i>, a novel gene designated as Cia7, was hypothesized to play a role in heavy metal homeostasis due to CIA7's conserved cysteine-residue motif. This study compared two strains of <i>C. reinhardtii</i>, cc4425, the wild-type possessing the functional CIA7 protein and cc5013, the mutant strain possessing the disrupted cia7- gene. The hypothesis was that the expression of Cia7 contributes to an increased cadmium (Cd)-tolerance in <i>C. reinhardtii</i>. The Cd-tolerance would be described by physiological markers of microalgae health, and by intracellular accumulation of the metal. Methods: The objectives of this study were (1) to compare chlorophyll fluorescence and cell size in cc4425 and cc5013 exposed to Cd<sup>2+</sup>, and (2) to compare Cd<sup>2+</sup> bioaccumulation in cc4425 and cc5013 strains in different growth media. Flow cytometry, and inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES) analysis were performed. Results: There was no significant statistical difference in Cd<sup>2+</sup> bioaccumulation between the two strains, cc4425 and cc5013, regardless of growth media. However, a statistically significant difference in Cd<sup>2+</sup> bioaccumulation (p&lt;0.0001) was determined between the media (with acetate and without acetate). The cia7- mutant, cc5013 was found to be more susceptible to a Cd<sup>2+</sup>-induced decrease in chlorophyll fluorescence and had a reduced cell size compared to cc4425, the wild-type strain. Conclusions: These observed differences between the strains suggest that CIA7's biological activity could play a direct or indirect role in increasing Cd tolerance in <i>C. reinhardtii</i>.</p>

Data from: Positive size-speed relationships in gametes and vegetative cells of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii; implications for the evolution of sperm.

It is commonly held that differences in gametes of the two sexes (anisogamy) evolved from ancestors whose gametes were similar in size and behaviour (isogamy). Underlying many hypotheses explaining anisogamy are assumed relationships between cell size and speed in the ancestral isogamous population. Using the isogamous alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, we explored size-speed distributions in vegetative and gamete cells of ten cell lines, and clonal data from within two cell lines. We applied an independent speed selection approach to gamete populations of C. reinhardtii, monitoring correlated responses in size following selection for high speed. We demonstrate positive size-speed relationships in clones, cell lines and artificially selected speed selection lines. We found different size-speed relationships in the two cell types of C. reinhardtii even though they overlap in size, suggesting that cell composition and/or programs of gene expression are capable of altering this relationship, and that the relationship is evolvable. The positive genetic size-speed correlation means that the division of parent vegetative cells into numerous gametes trades off against not only size but also speed, a trade-off that has not received previous attention. Our results support re-evaluating the role of speed selection in the evolution of anisogamy.

We carry out further selection procedures to increase Sm sequestration. Control, ancestral, and selected populations of <em>C. reinhardtii </em>were characterized using a Coulter Counter multisizer 4, FlowCam 3.0, using Transmission electron microscopy<em> </em>(TEM), ray spectroscopy (Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX)) and with an Imaging PAM fluorimeter. The populations studies were a&nbsp;<em>C. reinhardtii</em> wild-type control (control strain), Sm-uptake candidate strain (CSm0 strain) resulting from mixing thirteen Sm-adapted strains (refer to Mart&iacute;nez-Ales&oacute;n Garc&iacute;a et al., 2021), and newly established strains label for the selection cycle as CSm1, CSm2, CSm3, and CSm4 strains.</p> <p><strong><em>Files:</em></strong></p> <ul> <li>Coulter Counter particles distributions of all strains:&nbsp; <ul> <li><a href="../api/records/8392917/draft/files/Coulter%20Counter%20raw%20data.zip/content" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Coulter Counter raw data.zip</a> Data from Control, CSm0, CSm1, CSm2, CSm3, and CSm4 strains grown in BG11 medium under laboratory conditions for 15 days.</li> </ul> </li> <li>Microscopic images: <ul> <li><a href="../api/records/8392917/draft/files/Flow%20Cam%20raw%20images%20and%20files.zip/content" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Flow Cam raw images and files.zip</a>&nbsp;FlowCam 3.0 Microphotographs and files were generated for all strains grown in BG11 medium under laboratory conditions for 15 days.&nbsp;</li> <li><a href="8392917" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Optic Microscopy microphotographs.zip</a>&nbsp;Optic Microscopy Microphotographs measure morphological traits with ImageJ in CSm0 and CSm4 strains.</li> <li><a href="8392917" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">TEM Images.zip</a>&nbsp;Transmission electron microscopy<em> </em>(TEM) pictures were obtained with an electron microscope, JEOL-JEM 1400 (Jeol Ltd., Tokyo, Japan) from control and CSm4 strains.</li> </ul> </li> <li>Data files generated from microscopy images:<br> <ul> <li><a href="../api/records/8392917/draft/files/ImageJ%20analyses%20Raw%20data.xlsx/content" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">ImageJ analyses Raw data.xlsx</a>:&nbsp;ImageJ analyses files.</li> <li><a href="../api/records/8392917/draft/files/TEM-EDX%20analyses.zip/content" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">TEM-EDX analyses.zip</a>&nbsp;Ray spectroscopy (Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX)) spectrums obtained from TEM cuts.</li> </ul> </li> <li><a href="../api/records/8392917/draft/files/PAM%20raw%20data.zip/content" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">PAM raw data.zip</a>&nbsp;PAM fluorescence Raw data of&nbsp;</li> </ul>

Data from: The experimental evolution of herbicide-resistance in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii results in a positive correlation between fitness in the presence and absence of herbicides

Pleiotropic fitness trade-offs will be key determinants of the evolutionary dynamics of selection for pesticide resistance. However, for herbicide resistance, empirical support for a fitness cost of resistance is mixed, and it is therefore also questionable what further ecological trade-offs can be assumed to apply to herbicide resistance. Here, we test the existence of trade-offs by experimentally evolving herbicide resistance in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. Although fitness costs are detected for all herbicides, we find that, counterintuitively, the most resistant populations also have the lowest fitness costs as measured by growth rate in the ancestral environment. Furthermore, after controlling for differences in the evolutionary dynamics of resistance to different herbicides, we also detect significant positive correlations between resistance, fitness in the ancestral environment and cross-resistance to other herbicides. We attribute this to the highest levels of nontarget-site resistance being achieved by fixing mutations that more broadly affect cellular physiology, which results in both more cross-resistance and less overall antagonistic pleiotropy on maximum growth rate. Consequently, the lack of classical ecological trade-offs could present a major challenge for herbicide resistance management.
