genomics of miniaturisation in vertebrates

miniaturisationthe evolution of such reduced body size that anatomy or ecology is substantially alteredhas been a defining force in vertebrate evolution these changes must have a genomic basis my ambition with gemini is to characterise the interplay between organismal miniaturisation and the genome and discover how morphological transformations can arise in these organisms to do this i will produce a new comparative genomic paradigm in work package 1 wp1 comprising chromosomelevel genomes from 20 sisterpairs of miniaturised and nonminiaturised species spanning subphylum vertebrata of these 40 genomes 23 will be newly generated using the latest sequencing technologies and annotation pipelines i will apply a host of cuttingedge methods in comparative evolutionary genomics to identify genomic signatures of miniaturisation wp2 and test hypotheses regarding the drivers and limiters of miniaturisation wp3 on this paradigm i will then integrate these findings with developmental approaches to establish if there is a common basis to a classic case of convergent miniaturisationinduced anatomical change digit loss in the smallest tetrapods frogs wp4 gemini will dramatically change our understanding of the evolution of miniaturisation it will set the stage for largerscale interrogation of the evolution of novelty in metazoans and help us understand why being small is such a big deal
