SummaryRecent evidence demonstrates that novel protein-coding genes can arisede novofrom intergenic loci. This evolutionary innovation is thought to be facilitated by the pervasive translation of intergenic transcripts, which exposes a reservoir of variable polypeptides to natural selection. Do intergenic translation events yield polypeptides with useful biochemical capacities? The answer to this question remains controversial. Here, we systematically characterized howde novoemerging coding sequences impact fitness. In budding yeast, overexpression of these sequences was enriched in beneficial effects, while their disruption was generally inconsequential. We found that beneficial emerging sequences have a strong tendency to encode putative transmembrane proteins, which appears to stem from a cryptic propensity for transmembrane signals throughout thymine-rich intergenic regions of the genome. These findings suggest that novel genes with useful biochemical capacities, such as transmembrane domains, tend to evolvede novowithin intergenic loci that already harbored a blueprint for these capacities.

And Behavior

Females and males often differ obviously in morphology and behavior, and the differences between sexes are the result of natural selection and/or sexual selection. To a great extent, the differences between the two sexes are the result of differential gene expression. In haplodiploid insects, this phenomenon is obvious, since males develop from unfertilized zygotes and females develop from fertilized zygotes. Whiteflies of the Bemisia tabaci species complex are typical haplodiploid insects, and some species of this complex are important pests of many crops worldwide. Here, we report the transcriptome profiles of males and females in three species of this whitefly complex. Between-species comparisons revealed that non-sex-biased genes display higher variation than male-biased or female-biased genes. Sex-biased genes evolve at a slow rate in protein coding sequences and gene expression and have a pattern of evolution that differs from those of social haplodiploid insects and diploid animals. Genes with high evolutionary rates are more related to non-sex-biased traits—such as nutrition, immune system, and detoxification—than to sex-biased traits, indicating that the evolution of protein coding sequences and gene expression has been mainly driven by non-sex-biased traits.
