The hybrid progeny are fertile but the hybrid males from a cross between D. nasuta females and D. albomicans males showed a significantly smaller body size comparing to parental species, but either F1 males from the reciprocal cross or F1 females from both crosses were normal. By backcrossing the F1 males to the two parental species, the F2 male body size of one cross remained the same while that of the other, which regained the neo-X for its neo-Y, increased. This supported the hypothesis of the cooption between the neo-X and neo-Y chromosomes of D. albomicans. For lack of recombination in Drosophila males, degeneration is an unavoidable fate for Y chromosomes. A polymorphic Amyrel locus in D. albomicans has a neo-Y allele with a frame-shift deletion (Amyreld), this could be regarded as a degenerated Y-linked allele. The expression pattern of it in some strains with Amyreld showed a dosage compensation phenomenon but it was polymorphic in populations. Drosophila species including D. miranda, another species with neo-sex chromosomes, are commonly observed to follow the block-by-block dosage compensation model. After examining loci sampled from the whole chromosome arm including one close to Amyrel, it’s found that D. albomicans may not adopt the same mechanism as the older species D. miranda (ca. 1 MY) does. We proposed that the gene-by-gene mechanism may emerge at the very early stage of Y chromosome degeneration. While the degeneration was more serious, the block-by-block mechanism might be advantageous and replace the original multiple gene-by-gene mechanisms. The very short divergence time of D. albomicans provides a great chance to explore sex chromosome evolution at a very early stage.Chinese abstract (中文摘要) ibstract iiable of content ivhapter 1 Cooption of neo-X and neo-Y chromosomes in Drosophila albomicans 1ntroduction 1aterials and Methods 4rosophila isofemale strains 4rosses and hybrids 5stablishment of coupled D. albomicans strains with homogeneous nDNA but different mtDNA 6stablishment of coupled D. nasuta strains 8eproductive ability of the coupled strains 9easurement of wing length 9ata and statistical analyses 9esults 11ing length of hybrids 11ing length of coupled inbred strains 13ackcrosses of Ha1 males to females of both parental species 16iscussion 18hapter 2 Dosage compensation of neo-X chromosome in Drosophila albomicans 24ntroduction 24aterials and Methods 27rosophila isofemale strains 27otal RNA and genomic DNA (gDNA) extraction from the same single fly 28ingle strand complementary DNA (cDNA) synthesis 30CR and restriction: 31xpression patterns of sexual difference 32he Amyrel deletion allele (Amyreld) 34esults 36he expression patterns of loci along the 3rd chromosome 36xpression of Amyrel genes in the strain without Amyreld allele 39uantification expression of Amyrel and Amyreld in males 41xpression of the a427 locus between two genders 43iscussion 44eferences 51ppendix 56.
