Tree mortality risks under climate change in Europe: assessment of silviculture practices and genetic conservation networks

<p>General context: Climate change can positively or negatively affect abiotic and biotic drivers of tree mortality. Process-based models integrating these climatic effects are only seldom used at species distribution scale.</p> <p>Objective: The main objective of this study was to investigate the multi-causal mortality risk of five major European forest tree species across their distribution range from an ecophysiological perspective, to quantify the impact of forest management practices on this risk and to identify threats on the genetic conservation network.</p> <p><br> Methods: We used the process-based ecophysiological model CASTANEA to simulate the mortality risk of \textit{Fagus sylvatica}, \textit{Quercus petraea}, \textit{Pinus sylvestris}, \textit{Pinus pinaster} and \textit{Picea abies} under current and future climate conditions, while considering local silviculture practices. The mortality risk was assessed by a composite risk index \textit{(CRIM)} integrating the risks of carbon starvation, hydraulic failure and frost damage. We took into account extreme climatic events with the \textit{CRIM$_{max}$}, computed as the maximum annual value of the \textit{CRIM}.</p> <p><br> Results: The physiological processes&#39; contributions to \textit{CRIM} differed among species: it was mainly driven by hydraulic failure for \textit{P. sylvestris} and \textit{Q. petraea}, by frost damage for \textit{P. abies}, by carbon starvation for \textit{P. pinaster}, and by a combination of hydraulic failure and frost damage for \textit{F. sylvatica}. Under future climate, projection showed an increase of \textit{CRIM} for \textit{P. pinaster} but a decrease for \textit{P. abies}, \textit{Q. petraea} and \textit{F. sylvatica}, and little variation for \textit{P. sylvestris}. Under the harshest future climatic scenario, forest management decreased the mean \textit{CRIM} for \textit{P. sylvestris}, increased it for \textit{P. abies} and \textit{P. pinaster} and had no major impact for the two broadleaved species. By the year 2100, 38\% to 90\% of the conservation units are at extinction threat (\textit{CRIM$_{max}$}=1), depending on the species.</p> <p><br> Conclusions: Using a process-based ecophysiological model allowed us to disentangle the multiple drivers of tree mortality under current and future climate. Taking into account the positive effect of increased CO$_2$ on fertilization and water use efficiency, the average risks may increase or decrease in the future depending on species and sites. However, considering extreme climatic events, future projections are as pessimistic than those obtained with bioclimatic niche models.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Abbreviation for column:</p> <p>X&nbsp;&nbsp;

Integrative genetic analyses illuminates ALS heritability and identifies novel risk genes

<p>Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), the major adult onset motor neuron disease, has substantial heritability, in part shared with fronto-temporal dementia (FTD). We show here that ALS heritability is enriched in splicing variants and in binding sites of 6 RNA binding proteins including TDP-43 and FUS. A discovery and replication transcriptome wide association study (TWAS) identified 6 loci associated with ALS, 3 in known ALS loci (<em>C9ORF72, SCFD1, SLC9A8</em>) and 3 novel loci including <em>NUP50 </em>encoding for the nucleopore basket protein NUP50 In our meta-analysis of TWAS cohorts, <em>NUP50 </em>common variant was associated with ALS and to decreased expression of <em>NUP50 </em>in the central nervous system. Independently, we further show association of rare variants in <em>NUP50</em> with ALS risk (<em>P</em> = 3.71.10<sup>-03</sup>; odds ratio&nbsp; = 3.29; 95%CI, 1.37 to 7.87) in a cohort of 9,390 ALS/FTD patients and 4,594 controls. Cells from one patient carrying a <em>NUP50 </em>frameshift mutation displayed a decreased levels of NUP50. Loss of NUP50 leads to neuronal death in cultured neurons, and motor defects in <em>Drosophila </em>and zebrafish models. Thus, our study identifies alterations in splicing in neurons as a critical pathogenic process in ALS, uncovers several new loci potentially contributing to ALS, and provides genetic evidence linking nuclear pore defects to ALS.</p>

Genetic architecture of alcohol consumption identified by a genotype-stratified GWAS, and impact on esophageal cancer risk in Japanese

<p><span>An East Asian-specific variant on <em>aldehyde</em> <em>dehydrogenase</em> <em>2</em> (<em>ALDH2</em> rs671, G&gt;A) is the major genetic determinant of alcohol consumption. We performed an rs671 genotype-stratified genome-wide association study (GWAS) meta-analysis in up to 175,672 Japanese individuals to uncover additional loci associated with alcohol consumption in an rs671-dependent manner. Three loci (<em>GCKR</em>, <em>KLB</em>, and <em>ADH1B</em>)</span> <span>satisfied the genome-wide significance threshold in wild-type homozygotes (GG), whereas six loci (<em>GCKR</em>, <em>ADH1B</em>, <em>ALDH1B1</em>, <em>ALDH1A1</em>, <em>ALDH2</em>, and <em>GOT2</em>) did so in heterozygotes (GA). Of these, five loci showed genome-wide significant interaction with rs671. Genetic correlation analyses revealed ancestry-specific genetic architecture in heterozygotes. Subsequent polygenic risk scoring depicted interactions highlighted by stratified GWAS. Further, most discovered loci showed significant effects on risk of esophageal cancer, a representative alcohol-related disease, and multiple other phenotypes. Our results identify the genotype-specific genetic architecture of alcohol consumption and reveal its potential impact on alcohol-related disease risk.</span></p>

Demography and environment modulate the effects of genetic diversity on extinction risk in a butterfly metapopulation

<p>Linking genetic diversity to extinction is a common goal in genomic studies. Recently, a debate has arisen regarding the importance of genetic variation in conservation as some studies have failed to find associations between genome-wide genetic diversity and extinction risk. However, only rarely are genetic diversity and fitness measured together in the wild, and typically variation in demographic history or environment are ignored. It is therefore difficult to infer whether a lack of an association is real or obscured by confounding factors. To address these shortcomings, we analysed genetic data from 7,501 individuals with extinction data from 279 meadows and mortality of 1,742 larval nests in a butterfly metapopulation. We found strong negative associations between genetic diversity and extinction when heterozygosity was included alone in models. However, this association was no longer present when ecological covariates were included. Interactions between heterozygosity and demographic variables revealed that associations are context-dependent or only detectable when confounding factors are controlled. For example, extinction declined with increasing heterozygosity in large but not currently small populations, although negative associations between heterozygosity, extinction, and mortality were detected in populations with a recent history of decline. We conclude that low genetic diversity is an important predictor of extinction, predicting &gt;25% increase in extinction beyond ecological factors in certain contexts. This highlights that inferences about the importance of genetic diversity should not rely on genomic data alone but requires investments in obtaining demographic and environmental data from natural populations to jointly assess their impact on population extinction risk.</p>

Genetic architecture and polygenic risk score prediction of degenerative suspensory ligament desmitis (DSLD) in the Peruvian Horse

<p class="MsoNormal"><strong>Introduction</strong>: Spontaneous rupture of tendons and ligaments is common in several species including humans. In horses, degenerative suspensory ligament desmitis (DSLD) is an important acquired idiopathic disease of a major energy-storing tendon-like structure. DSLD risk is increased in several breeds, including the Peruvian Horse. Affected horses have often been used for breeding before the disease is apparent. Breed predisposition suggests a substantial genetic contribution, but heritability and genetic architecture of DSLD have not been determined.</p> <p class="MsoNormal"><strong>Methods</strong>: To identify genomic regions associated with DSLD, we recruited a reference population of 183 Peruvian Horses, phenotyped as DSLD cases or controls, and undertook a genome-wide association study (GWAS), a regional window variance analysis using local genomic partitioning, a signatures of selection (SOS) analysis, and polygenic risk score (PRS) prediction of DSLD risk. We also estimated trait heritability from pedigrees.</p> <p class="MsoNormal"><strong>Results</strong>: Heritability was estimated in a population of 1,927 Peruvian horses at 0.22±0.08. After establishing a permutation-based threshold for genome-wide significance, 151 DSLD risk single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were identified by GWAS. Multiple regions of enriched local heritability were identified across the genome, with strong enrichment signals on chromosomes 1, 2, 6, 10, 13, 16, 18, 22, and the X chromosome. With SOS analysis, there were 66 genes with a selection signature in DSLD cases that was not present in the control group that included the <em>TGFB3</em> gene. Pathways enriched in DSLD cases included proteoglycan metabolism, extracellular matrix homeostasis, and signal transduction pathways that included the hedgehog signaling pathway. The best PRS predictive performance was obtained when we fitted 1% of top SNPs using a Bayesian Ridge Regression model which achieved the highest mean of R<sup>2</sup> on both the probit and logit liability scales, indicating a strong predictive performance.</p> <p><strong>Discussion</strong>: We conclude that within-breed GWAS of DSLD in the Peruvian Horse has further confirmed that moderate heritability and a polygenic architecture underlies the trait and identified multiple DSLD SNP associations in novel tendinopathy candidate genes influencing disease risk. Pathways enriched with DSLD risk variants include ones that influence glycosaminoglycan metabolism, extracellular matrix homeostasis, and signal transduction pathways.</p>
