Title: Genomics applied to species identification of fruit fly (Diptera: Tephritidae) pests

Speaker: Carlos Congrains, Ph.D., Postdoctoral Scholar, University of Hawaii at Manoa, Collaborator at Daniel K. Inouye U.S. Pacific Agricultural Research Center

Abstract

Tephritidae is a highly speciated and globally distributed family of fruit flies that includes several species of economic interest due to their capacity to invade new environments and infest a wide variety of crops. Species identification is crucial for applying adequate measures of pest control and minimizing their economic impact. Most of the species catalogued as agricultural pests show similar morphology and have overlapping interspecific polymorphic characters. Furthermore, the popular COI marker has failed to accurately discriminate among most of these species. We have generated high quality genome assemblies that can be used as references for population genetics studies. Here, we present the first genome of Anastrepha fraterculus, which is a major pest in the Americas. We also applied whole genome sequencing technique to evaluate the mango fruit fly complex, which currently comprises four species (Bactrocera frauenfeldi, Bactrocera trilineola, Bactrocera caledoniensis and Bactrocera parafrauenfeldi) distributed in Southeast Asia and Oceania. B. frauenfeldi and B. trilineola are highly polyphagous and catalogued as major pests. We obtained a large set of SNPs, which were used to infer a robust phylogeny and evaluate their genetic differentiation. Based on this data, we have identified a set of markers that may be used for species discrimination, offering a foundation for developing more efficient diagnostic tools.

Abstract:

Exome sequencing continues to reveal more about the genetic underpinnings of health and disease, uncovering biomarkers and drug targets that will improve diagnostics and patient care in the future. The AVITI system is a new option for researchers who need high quality sequencing data but face challenges balancing per sample costs against longer turnaround times due to moderate sample volumes. Shawn Levy walks through common use cases for targeted sequencing, shares data, and explains how the AVITI System and the forthcoming Cloudbreak chemistry release can provide new options for obtaining data faster and more easily.

Panel discussion details featuring Molly He:
Monday March 6, 4:15 pm PANEL DISCUSSION: 30 Years of Genomics Innovation and the Future of Precision Medicine

Moderator: Kevin Davies, PhD, Executive Editor, The CRISPR Journal; Author, Editing Humanity: The CRISPR Revolution and the New Era of Genome Editing

Over the past three decades, genomic medicine has been transformed from a distant dream to a clinical reality. With patients suffering genetic diseases and cancer now cured thanks to advances in genomics, cell therapy, genome editing, and computing, the future is bright – but by no means assured. In this TRI-CON keynote panel, we discuss the scientific highlights of an extraordinary journey for practitioners of precision medicine and anticipate where the field is headed.

Other panelists: Euan Ashley, MD, PhD, Professor, Genomics & Precision Health, Stanford School of MedicineJ. Craig Venter, PhD, Founder, Chairman, and CEO, J. Craig Venter InstituteMolly He, PhD, CEO & Co Founder, Element BiosciencesAlex Aravanis, MD, PhD, CTO, Senior Vice President, Head of Research and Product Development, Illumina

Join us for a Lunch & Learn at The Broad Institute to learn more about the AVITI DNA sequencing system, now available at the Genomics Platform

Element Biosciences has reinvented DNA sequencing with the introduction of the AVITI system. Using a fundamentally different DNA sequencing method, the AVITI system flips the script with a benchtop instrument that provides higher quality data at much lower cost. Learn about avidity sequencing, common use cases for WGS, RNA sequencing, and targeted sequencing applications, and get a preview of Element’s forthcoming Cloudbreak chemistry release.

Beyond COVID: Using LoopSeq long-read wastewater surveillance to understand Enterovirus epidemiology.

Tuesday, November 15, 2022
10:00–11:00 AM (PT)

Wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) of viruses is not a new idea, but it is one that has gained renewed attention as a potentially more accurate and cost-effective way to monitor the spread of infectious diseases through communities.

Learn how scientists at Arizona State University used LoopSeq™ to develop and test a novel method for long-read WBE of Enteroviruses during the COVID-19 pandemic, when standard methods for tracking the spread of these viruses were not available.
