| Abstract |
BACKGROUND:The Drosophila genus is ideal for studying genome evolution due to its relatively simple chromosome structure and small genome size, with rearrangements mainly restricted to within chromosome arms, such as Muller elements. However, work on the rapidly evolving repetitive genomic regions, composed of transposons and tandem repeats, have been hampered by the lack of genus-wide chromosome-level assemblies. RESULTS:Integrating long-read genomic sequencing and chromosome capture technology, here we produce and annotate 30 chromosome-level genome assemblies within the Drosophila genus. Based on this dataset, we reveal the evolutionary dynamics of genome rearrangements across the Drosophila phylogeny, including the identification of genomic regions that show comparatively high structural stability throughout evolution. Moreover, within the ananassae subgroup, we uncover the emergence of new chromosome conformations and the rapid expansion of novel satellite DNA sequence families, which form large and continuous pericentromeric domains with higher-order repeat structures that are reminiscent of those observed in the human and Arabidopsis genomes. CONCLUSIONS:These chromosome-level genome assemblies present a valuable resource for future research, the power of which is demonstrated by our analysis of genome rearrangements and chromosome evolution. In addition, based on our findings, we propose the ananassae subgroup as an ideal model system for studying the evolution of centromere structure. |
