Genetic Structure of Introduced and Established Fish Populations

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
We studied four groups of fish, that is, released fish representing each of the two distinct populations (introduced population A and introduced population B), and fish established in the wild in lakes Lilla Bävervattnet (established population LB) and Haravattnet (established population HV; Figure 1). The sample size was 50 for each group. Fish from introduced populations A and B were caught in the wild in 1988–1995 and classified to either introduced population based on their age (otolith readings) or by genotype at the allozyme marker locus (Appendix S1; Palm & Ryman, 1999 (link)). Individuals representing the parental generation (P) or the F1 generation for which population assignment was possible using the allozyme marker (no hybrids) are included. Fish established in Lakes LB and HV were caught in 2011.
Genomic DNA was extracted from muscle tissue from 50 individuals from each investigated group (introduced population A, introduced population B, established population LB, and established population HV) using a KingFisher cell and tissue DNA kit (Thermo Scientific) including RNase A treatment. High‐molecular‐weight DNA from each individual was combined at equal concentrations for each population in order to create pools of individuals corresponding to each population to be sequenced. Additional details about DNA extraction are provided in Appendix S1.

Genomic DNA Sequencing of Bt/Bc Isolates

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The genomic DNA of 78 Bt/Bc isolates was extracted and sequenced as described in Bonis et al. [17 (link)]. Briefly, the KingFisher Cell and Tissue DNA kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA) was used to isolate genomic DNA. DNA purity and concentration were determined using a Nanodrop Spectrophometer and a Qubit fluorimeter, respectively. Global DNA integrity was visualized on a 0.8% agarose gel (Seakem GTG™ Agarose) after migration for 2 h at 90 V. Library preparation was carried out using the Nextera XT DNA Library Prep kit (Illumina, San Diego, CA, USA) and 150 bp paired-end sequencing of isolated DNA was performed by the Institut du Cerveau et de la Moëlle epinière, using a Nextseq500 sequencing system (Illumina). An in-house workflow called ARtWORK v1.0 [17 (link),31 (link)] was used to assemble reads with default parameters. The paired-end reads of the isolates are available in the PRJNA781790 BioProject on NCBI and the associated accession numbers are listed in Supplementary Table S1.

Linked-read Sequencing for N. phaeopus Genome

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
We obtained a sample of N. phaeopus (ZMUC 112728) from the Natural History Museum of Denmark, Copenhagen, for reference genome assembly. Its genomic DNA was extracted using the KingFisher Duo Prime Magnetic Particle Processor (Thermo Fisher Scientific, USA) and the KingFisher Cell and Tissue DNA Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific). A linked-read sequencing library was prepared using the Chromium Genome library kits (10 X Genomics) and sequenced on one Illumina Hiseq X lane at SciLifeLab Stockholm (Sweden). The de novo assembly analysis was performed using 10 X Chromium Supernova (v. 2.1.1). Reads were filtered for low quality and duplication, while assemblies were checked for accuracy and coverage and the best assembly was selected based on the highest genome coverage with the fewest errors. The final genome had a size of 1.12 Gb at a coverage of 50 X with N50=3504.2 kbp.

RNA was isolated from harvested cells using RNeasy Micro Kit (QIAGEN). cDNA synthesis was done following the manufacturer protocol (Maxima First Strand cDNA Synthesis Kit, Thermo Scientific, K1671). For mitochondrial DNA level determination, DNA was purificated using the KingFisher Cell and Tissue DNA Kit (Thermo). Real-time PCR was performed using a SYBR Green qPCR master mix (Takara) according to the manufacturer's protocol. The primers for the qRT-PCR are listed in Supplementary Table 1. All data were normalized to the control using Actin or RPLPO as internal control.

Museum Specimen DNA Extraction and Sequencing

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
We extracted genomic DNA from toepad samples (n = 59) and from fresh blood and tissue samples (n = 19). Protocol for DNA extraction from toepad samples followed Irestedt et al. (2006) . We followed the protocol of Meyer and Kircher (2010) (link) to create sequencing libraries suitable for Illumina sequencing of toepad DNA extracts. Library preparation included blunt-end repair, adapter ligation, and adapter fill-in, followed by four independent index PCRs. The libraries were run on half a lane on Illumina HiSeq X, pooled at equal ratio with other museum samples. Genomic DNA was extracted from fresh samples with KingFisher Duo magnetic particle processor (ThermoFisher Scientific) using the KingFisher Cell and Tissue DNA Kit.
Library preparation, using Illumina TruSeq DNA Library Preparation Kit, and sequencing on Illumina HiSeqX (2x151 bp) was performed by SciLifeLab. All raw reads generated for this study have been deposited at the NCBI Sequence Read Archive (SRA), accession number [pending] .

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
