| PRJNA309669 | SRP068842 | Genes located in a chromosomal inversion are correlated with territorial song in white-throated sparrows |
The genome of the white-throated sparrow (Zonotrichia albicollis) contains an inversion polymorphism on chromosome 2 that is linked to predictable variation in a suite of phenotypic traits including plumage color, aggression, and parental behavior. Differences in gene expression between the two color morphs, which represent the two common inversion genotypes (ZAL2/ZAL2 and ZAL2/ZAL2m), are therefore of potential interest toward understanding the molecular underpinnings of these phenotypes. To identify genes that are differentially expressed between the two morphs and correlated with behavior, we quantified both behavior and gene expression in a population of free-living white-throated sparrows. We quantified behavioral responses to simulated territorial intrusions (STIs) early during the breeding season. In the same birds, we then performed a transcriptomewide analysis of gene expression in two behaviorally relevant brain regions, the medial amygdala and hypothalamus. Using network analyses, we identified modules of genes that were correlated with both morph and STI-induced singing behavior. The majority of these genes were located within the inversion, demonstrating the profound effect the inversion has on the expression of genes captured by the rearrangement. Gene pathway analyses revealed that in the medial amygdala, the most prominent pathways were those related to steroid hormone receptor activity. Within these pathways, the only gene encoding such a receptor was ESR1 (estrogen receptor alpha). Our results thus suggest that ESR1 and related genes are important for behavioral differences between the morphs. Overall design: RNA samples from the brain regions HYP and MeA were collected from a total of 19 male white-throated sparrows (10 WS and 9 TS). Free-living birds were collected during the peak of territorial behavior (May-June) the day after a simulated territorial intrusion using mist nets and song playback. For the MeA samples, MeA constituted the majority of the sampled tissue. For the HYP, samples included the caudal portion of the medial preoptic area (POM), the paraventricular nucleus (PVN), the anterior hypothalamus, and the ventromedial hypothalamus (VMH).
SRA archive data
SRA archive data is normalized by the SRA load process and used by the SRA Toolkit to read and produce formats like FASTQ, SAM, etc. The default toolkit configuration enables it to find and retrieve SRA runs by accession.
Public SRA files are now available from GCP and AWS cloud platforms as well as from NCBI. Access to most data in the cloud requires a user account with the cloud service provider. The user’s account will incur costs for cloud compute or to copy data outside of the specified cloud service region.

- Egress and Access: what does it mean?
-
Egress
term used by cloud providers to describe cost (charged to the user) of moving data outside of the storage region Free Egresscolumn indicates where the data can be accessed without an egress charge: - worldwide can be downloaded from anywhere for free
- s3.us-east-1 is free to access from machines running in Amazon's us-east-1 region, access from other regions or transport outside of AWS will require paying egress charges
- gs.US is free to access from machines running in Google’s gs.US region, access from other regions or transport outside of GCP will require paying egress charges
Access Typedescribes whether a cloud service user account is necessary for data access. "anonymous" access means general public access Namecolumn provides either a link to free download location at NCBI or a URL for the cloud provider storage location. Either s3:// for Amazon or gs:// for Google storage
- Why is SRA data in the cloud?
-
In order to support large scale (hyper parallel) data analyses SRA data is now available at GCP and AWS with few caveats:
- SRA data is copied to the cloud from NCBI. There may be a lag between availability from NCBI and from CSP (cloud service providers)
- To access public data user account with the cloud service provider is required. Your account will incur costs for cloud compute and/or to copy data (either archival or results of your comute) outside of the specified cloud service region
- Distribution of protected data is signed by NIH account and requires user to operate in the same region as the data
SRA has also begun to provide access to originally submitted source files:
- not all files have been validated by SRA
- not all files have been copied to cloud locations (recovering it from NCBI tape system takes time ).
- the volume of this type of data a much larger and it is not used as often so we will keep most of it on tape or "cold" storage in cloud. As a result the data may not be available instantly and restore requests will be served on first-come first-served basis and cost of resore may be charged to your user account.
- What is "Cloud Data Delivery"?
-
Please visit SRA Data Delivery service to request Sequence Read Archive (SRA) data to be delivered to an Amazon Web Services (AWS) or Google Cloud Platform (GCP) bucket of your choice.

- How to read results?
Results show distribution of reads mapping to specific taxonomy nodes as a percentage of total reads within the analyzed run. In cases where a read maps to more than one related taxonomy node, the read is reported as originating from the lowest shared taxonomic node. So when a read maps to two species belonging to the same genus, it is assigned at the genus level. Sequence reads from a single organism will map to several taxonomy nodes spanning the organism’s lineage. The number of reads mapping to higher level nodes will typically be greater than those that map to terminal nodes.
STAT results are proportional to the size of sequenced genomes. Given a mixed sample containing several organisms at equal copy number, proportionally more reads originate from the larger genomes. This means that the percentages reported by STAT will reflect genome size and must be considered against the genomic complexity of the sequenced sample.
