Characterizing viral quasispecies

1 Quasispecies complexity by biodiversity indices
RNA and DNA viruses that replicate by low fidelity polymerases generate a viral quasispecies, a collection of closely related viral genomes.
The high replication error rate that generates this quasispecies is due to a lack of proofreading mechanisms. This feature, in addition to the high replication rate of some viruses, leads to generation of many mutations in each cycle of viral replication.
The complexity of the quasispecies contributes greatly to the adaptive potential of the virus. The complexity of a viral quasispecies can be defined as an intrinsic property that quantifies the diversity and frequency of haplotypes, independently of the population size that contains them. (Gregori et al. 2016) (Gregori et al. 2014)
Quasispecies complexity can explain or predict viral behavior, so it has an obvious interest for clinical purposes. We are often interested in comparing the viral diversity indices between sequential samples from a single patient or between samples from groups of patients. These comparisons can provide information on the patient’s clinical progression or the appropriateness of a given treatment.
QSUtils is a package intended for use with quasispecies amplicon NGS data, but it could also be useful for analyzing 16S/18S ribosomal-based metagenomics or tumor genetic diversity by amplicons.
In this tutorial we illustrate the use of functions contained in the package to compute diversity indices, which can be classified into incidence-based, abundance-based, and functional indices.
#Install package and load data
First, the package should be installed and loaded.
BiocManager::install("QSutils")
library(QSutils)Then, the dataset to work with the diversity indices should be loaded. This vignette deals with the different ways to load data: Simulation vignette for package users is also available.

Incidence-based diversity indices correspond to the number of observed entities, regardless of their abundances. The main incidence indices are the number of haplotypes, the number of polymorphic sites, and the number of mutations. These indices can be computed as follows:
number of haplotypes
length(lst$hseqs)## [1] 10In this fasta file, 10 haplotypes are reported. This can be calculated with the length of the DNAStringSet object.
The number of polymorphic sites
SegSites(lst$hseqs)## [1] 14In this example, there are 14 polymorphic sites; that is, mutated positions with respect to the dominant haplotype.
Number of mutations
TotalMutations(lst$hseqs)## [1] 37Returns the total number of mutations observed in the alignment.
3 Abundance-based diversity indices
Abundance-based diversity indices take into account the entities present and their relative abundance in the population.
Shannon entropy
Shannon(lst$nr)## [1] 1.6396NormShannon(lst$nr)## [1] 0.7120691Shannon entropy is a measure of uncertainty. This index varies from 0, when there is a single haplotype, to the logarithm of the number of haplotypes. It represents the uncertainty in assigning a random genome to the corresponding haplotype in the population studied. This index is commonly used in the normalized form, although the non-normalized form is recommended. The normalized form constitutes a measure of evenness rather than diversity.
The variance of Shannon entropy and normalized Shannon entropy can be computed with:
ShannonVar(lst$nr)## [1] 0.001154642NormShannonVar(lst$nr)## [1] 0.000217779Gini-Simpson
GiniSimpson(lst$nr)## [1] 0.7117878GiniSimpsonMVUE(lst$nr)## [1] 0.7117878The Gini-Simpson index expresses the probability that two randomly sampled molecules from the viral population correspond to different haplotypes. It has a range of variation from 0, when there is a single haplotype, to 1 (asymptotically), when there are an infinity of equally abundant haplotypes. Interpretation of this index is clearer and more intuitive than that of Shannon entropy, and it is scarcely sensitive to rare haplotypes, as it gives higher weight to the more abundant variants.
The variance of the Gini-Simpson index is obtained with:
GiniSimpsonVar(lst$nr)## [1] 0.0128987Hill numbers
Although Shannon entropy, the Gini-Simpson index, and many other reported indices are considered measures of diversity, their units do not allow an easily interpreted and intuitive measure of true diversity. They are not linear with respect to the addition of new haplotypes, and they tend to saturate: the larger the number of haplotypes, the less sensitive they are to frequency changes. In contrast, Hill numbers are a generalization of diversity measures in units of equally abundant species.
Hill(lst$nr,q=1)## [1] 5.153107Hill function computes the Hill number for a given order, q, but in QSutils there is a wrapper function that computes a profile of Hill numbers for different q values, so that one can see what happens when q increases in a plot.
HillProfile(lst$nr) plot(HillProfile(lst$nr),type ="b", main="Hill numbers obtained with HillProfile")## q qD ## 1 0.00 10.000000 ## 2 0.10 9.364553 ## 3 0.20 8.751454 ## 4 0.30 8.166229 ## 5 0.40 7.613843 ## 6 0.50 7.098360 ## 7 0.60 6.622668 ## 8 0.70 6.188332 ## 9 0.80 5.795587 ## 10 0.90 5.443454 ## 11 1.00 5.153107 ## 12 1.20 4.607768 ## 13 1.40 4.203660 ## 14 1.60 3.891941 ## 15 1.80 3.650325 ## 16 2.00 3.461118 ## 17 2.25 3.278284 ## 18 2.50 3.138087 ## 19 2.75 3.028004 ## 20 3.00 2.939603 ## 21 3.25 2.867153 ## 22 3.50 2.806698 ## 23 3.75 2.755460 ## 24 4.00 2.711447 ## 25 5.00 2.583506 ## 26 6.00 2.501359 ## 27 7.00 2.444364 ## 28 8.00 2.402760 ## 29 9.00 2.371234 ## 30 10.00 2.346626 ## 31 Inf 2.155172
Figure 1: Hill numbers profile
As the order of the Hill number increases, the measure of diversity becomes
less sensitive to rare haplotypes. Note that the Hill number of order q=0
is simply the number of haplotypes. For q=1 the Hill number is undefined,
but as approaches 1 it tends to the exponential of Shannon entropy. For
q=2 the Hill number corresponds to the inverse of the Simpson index and
for q=Inf it is the inverse of the relative abundance of the rarest
haplotype.
Rényi entropy
Renyi(lst$nr,q=3)## [1] 1.078274Rényi entropy is a log transformation of the Hill numbers.

5 Sample size and bias
The diversity we measure in viral quasispecies samples is necessarily tied to the sample size. The larger the coverage, the larger the number of haplotypes, polymorphic sites, and mutations we can find. The same is true for Shannon entropy and other diversity indices. Because of the variability in all experimental procedures, the best pooling of samples never results in perfectly balanced coverage, which complicates the comparison of diversity indices biased by sample size. Hence, a sample size correction method is required to obtain fair inferences. The literature regarding ecology shows several correction methods, which unfortunately, are not applicable to NGS because of one differential trait. With NGS, sooner or later we are obliged to eliminate all haplotypes present in frequencies below a threshold, considered the noise level of the technique. This lower end of frequencies contains the information required by most established corrections.
The correction we found that works best in this situation consists in determining the minimum coverage of all samples to be compared and down sampling the other samples to this minimum, simply by rescaling. All haplotypes with resulting frequencies below a given threshold are then removed with high confidence, in a step we have dubbed fringe trimming. The \(DSFT\) function is used to correct the quasispecies composition to a given sample size. It takes four parameters: \(nr\), the vector of haplotype frequencies in the original sample; \(size\), the total number of reads in the new sample prior to abundance filtering; \(p.cut\), the abundance threshold in the filter; and \(conf\), the level of confidence in trimming haplotypes, which defaults to 0.95. \(DSFT\) returns a vector of logicals with FALSE for all haplotypes to be removed by the correction.
The next code shows the impact of each data treatment step when determining Shannon entropy. First, we simulate the frequencies of haplotypes in a quasispecies population. Then we take repeated samples from this population, 2000 and 5000 reads in size. We then compute Shannon entropy of the raw samples,and the samples after noise filtering at an abundance of 0.1%, and after the DSFT corrections at size 2000, and filtering at 0.2% with 95% confidence.

Figure 5: Diversity index variations due to sample size
As is evident, the distribution of Shannon entropy values in raw samples of 10000 reads shows higher values than those in samples of 5000 reads, even though the samples come from the same viral population.
After removing all haplotypes with frequencies below 0.1%, the effect is reversed: Shannon entropies are much lower for the larger samples. Correction by DSFT brings the two distributions to comparable levels.
This behavior is typical of samples with long queues of very low fitness and defective haplotypes, possibly worsened by technical errors in sample preparation and sequencing.
5.1 The load of rare haplotypes
We found that the fraction of reads belonging to haplotypes below 1% in frequency, the rare haplotype load (RHL), is a robust index of quasispecies diversity, especially suitable for detecting mutagenic processes. This index is also robust and does not require sample size corrections, provided that coverage is high enough. The RHL computation is done without a previous abundance filter.
Let’s generate a random quasispecies with an RHL of about 25%:
set.seed(123)
n <- 2000
y <- geom.series(n,0.8)+geom.series(n,0.0002)
nr.pop <- round(y*1e7)
rare <- nr.pop/sum(nr.pop) < 0.01
RHL <- sum(nr.pop[rare])/sum(nr.pop)
round(RHL,4)## [1] 0.2535Repeating the sampling process seen before for Shannon entropy, we obtain median RHL values that are very close to the population value for both sample sizes.
The population value is shown in the next figure as a dash-dot horizontal line.
