中国主要鹅品种的线粒体DNA多态性与起源分化研究

运用19种限制性内切酶对中国11个家鹅品种138个样本进行了mtDNA的限制性片段长度多态性（RFLP）分析。在使用的19种内切酶中,有7个酶检测出多态。综合27种限制性态型（restrictionmorph）,可得到6种mtDNA单倍型（hopotype）。伊犁鹅与另外10个鹅品种没有共享的单倍型,遗传距离和UPGMA聚类分析也表明,伊犁鹅与这些品种具有不同的起源。EcoRV、HaeⅡ、HincⅡ和KpnⅠ4种酶的限制性态型可作为鉴别两种起源家鹅的母系遗传标记。起源于鸿雁的10个鹅品种群体内出现一定的遗传差异,其群体多态度（π）、单倍型间平均遗传距离（P）、品种间平均净遗传距离（δnet）分别为0．025％、0．266％和0．029％。白羽鹅品种在形成过程中经历过创立者效应（foUndereffect）。这10个鹅品种可能起源于两个不同地理区的鸿雁类群。     

猪线粒体DNA多态性与中国地方猪种起源分化的关系

用24种限制性内切酶分析了我国21个具代表性地方猪品种、1个引进品种和2个来自中国和越南的野生近缘种mtDNA的RFLP。结果表明:在74个个体中检出的32种限制性态型可归结成7种单倍型,其间的差异主要来源于少数几个限制性位点的点突变;地方猪种4种单倍型间的平均遗传距离为0.143％,遗传多态程度(π值)仅为0.007％,说明遗传多样性非常贫乏,提示中国地方猪种可能起源于一个野猪亚种。

黄河裸裂尻鱼五种群mtDNA控制区的遗传结构

黄河裸裂尻鱼（Schizopygopsis pylzovi）主要分布于青藏高原东北部兰州以上黄河干支流水系和高原北部柴达木内流水系,由于其对高原特殊生境表现出独特的适应性而受研究者关注。本文采用聚合酶链式反应（PCR）和直接测序的方法获得了一个分布于柴达木内流水系种群和四个黄河支流种群共99条个体的线粒体DNA（mtDNA）控制区（D-100p）821bp核苷酸的序列,探讨了其种群遗传结构和分化。99条个体的序列经比对后,发现77个（9．37％）多态性位点,共定义了53个单倍型,其中有一个单倍型（DT12）为两个种群（大通种群和互助种群）所共享,其余52个单倍型均为某个种群所特有。遗传多样性分析表明,柴达木种群的单倍型多样度（h=0．79±0．06）和核苷酸多样度（π=0．0027±0．0017）均略低于黄河支流各种群。AMOVA分析结果显示,遗传差异主要发生在种群之内,占75．39％,而小同水系的种群间只有24．61％,各种群间成对的Fst及遗传距离均表明种群间出现了一定程度的种群分化,但系统进化树最示出一种混杂的单倍型分布格局,提示青藏高原东北部地质事件所造成的水系间的隔离形成较晚。单倍型歧点分布呈现为单峰以及中性检验Tajima的D（-1．497,P=0．058）和Fu的Fs（-24．741,P=0．001）结果综合表明,黄河裸裂尻鱼在青藏高原隆升过程中曾经历过近期的种群扩张事件[动物学报54（6）：972—980,2008]。     

中国山羊mtDNA D-loop遗传多样性及其起源研究

洱海鲤属鱼类同域分化形成的分子遗传学证据

对洱海的 3种鲤鱼———洱海鲤 (C .barbatus)、春鲤 (C .longipectoralis)和杞麓鲤 (C .carpiochila)线粒体DNA(mtDNA)进行了限制性片段长度多态 (RFLP)分析和mtDNA控制区 (D loop)序列测定。RFLP分析结果表明 ,16种酶在洱海鲤、春鲤和杞麓鲤 3个种共 14个个体上 ,仅DraⅠ在春鲤的一个个体上检出一个位点的限制性片段长度多态 ,独立为单倍型Ⅱ ,3个种的其余 13个个体共享单倍型Ⅰ ,种间遗传距离为 0 %～ 0 0 0 75 % ,此种间差异值比已报道的鱼类的种间差异甚至种内差异都低得多。D loop区的序列测定结果表明 ,长为 4 4 9bp的序列共显示有 7个变异位点 ,均为碱基替换 ,变异比例为 1 5 6 % ,在 14个鲤鱼个体中共检出 6种单倍型 ,种间的遗传距离为 0 0 82 %～ 0 171% ,与已研究的其他几种异域分布的鲤鱼相比 ,也至少小一个数量级。mtDNA的RFLP及D loop区的序列比较都揭示出洱海 3种鲤鱼之间的遗传差异远小于异域分布的鲤属鱼类物种之间及其他鱼类的同属种间的遗传差异。对洱海鲤属鱼类种间如此小的遗传差异唯一合理的解释就是 :它们确是由同域分化而形成的。

Mitochondrial diversity in European and Chinese pigs is consistent with population expansions that occurred prior to domestication

Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) diversity in European and Asian pigs was assessed using 1536 samples representing 45 European and 21 Chinese breeds. Diagnostic nucleotide differences in the cytochrome b (Cytb) gene between the European and Asian mtDNA variants were determined by pyrosequencing as a rapid screening method. Subsequently, 637bp of the hypervariable control region was sequenced to further characterize mtDNA diversity. All sequences belonged to the D1 and D2 clusters of pig mtDNA originating from ancestral wild boar populations in Europe and Asia, respectively. The average frequency of Asian mtDNA haplotypes was 29% across European breeds, but varied from 0 to 100% within individual breeds. A neighbour-joining (NJ) tree of control region sequences showed that European and Asian haplotypes form distinct clusters consistent with the independent domestication of pigs in Asia and Europe. The Asian haplotypes found in the European pigs were identical or closely related to those found in domestic pigs from Southeast China. The star-like pattern detected by network analysis for both the European and Asian haplotypes was consistent with a previous demographic expansion. Mismatch analysis supported this notion and suggested that the expansion was initiated before domestication.

Mitochondrial haplotypes of European wild boars with 2n = 36 are closely related to those of European domestic pigs with 2n = 38

Wild boars from Western Europe have a 2n = 36 karyotype, in contrast to a karyotype of 2n = 38 in wild boars from Central Europe and Asia and in all domestic pigs. The phylogenetic status of this wild boar population is unclear, and it is not known if it has contributed to pig domestication. We have now sequenced the mtDNA control region from 30 European wild boars (22 with a confirmed 2n = 36 karyotype) and six Asian wild boars (two Hainan and four Dongbei wild boars) to address this question. The results revealed a close genetic relationship between mtDNA haplotypes from wild boars with 2n = 36 to those from domestic pigs with 2n = 38. Thus, we cannot exclude the possibility that wild boars with 2n = 36 may have contributed to pig domestication despite the karyotype difference. One of the European wild boars carried an Asian mtDNA haplotype, and this most likely reflects gene flow from domestic pigs to European wild boars. However, this gene flow does not appear to be extensive because the frequency of Asian haplotypes detected among European wild boars (c. 3%) were 10-fold lower than among European domestic pigs (c. 30%). Previous studies of mtDNA haplotypes have indicated that pig populations in Europe and Asia have experienced a population expansion, but it is not clear if the expansion occurred before or after domestication. The results of the present study are consistent with an expansion that primarily occurred prior to domestication because the mtDNA haplotypes found in European and Asian wild boars did not form their own clusters but were intermingled with haplotypes found in domestic pigs, indicating that they originated from the same population expansion.     

Restriction fragment length polymorphism of the major histocompatibility complex of the pig

Human HLA cDNA probes were used to analyze the restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) of the SLA major histocompatibility complex in swine. Cellular genomic DNA from 19 SLA homozygous pigs representing 13 different haplotypes was digested with restriction endonucleases Eco RI, Hind III, or Bam H1, separated by electrophoresis, and transferred onto diazobenzyloxymethyl paper by the Southern blot technique. The blots were probed with ³²P-labeled class I or beta-DR class II cDNA. Depending on the haplotypes and the endonucleases used, seven to ten restriction fragments hybridized with the class I probe, and five to seven with the beta-DR probe. Their sizes ranged from 3.4 to 22 kilobase-pairs. Few bands were common to all 13 haplotypes. With all but one haplotype, identical autoradiogram patterns were obtained from unrelated, but phenotypically SLA-identical pigs, suggesting that most of the RFLP revealed were controlled by the SLA region. Further polymorphism was found in a group of seven unrelated pigs which typed serologically as SLA A15 CI B18 homozygotes but could be divided into two subgroups, with five animals in one subgroup and two in the other, when the genomic DNA was hybridized with the class I probe. When the class 11 beta-DR probe was tested on the same seven pigs, another subdivision was seen, and this correlated with MLR data. These results demonstrate that HLA class I and class II probes can be used to identify certain well-established SLA haplotypes and to identify subclasses within at least one SLA haplotype.Abbreviations MHC major histocompatibility complex - MLR mixed lymphocyte reaction - kbp kilobase pair(s) - RFLP restriction fragment length polymorphism     

A molecular assessment of homing in the tidepool sculpin

Molecular analyses of the mitochondrial genome using restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) were utilized to determine the existence of discrete populations of the tidepool sculpin Oligocottus maculosus from the Barkley Sound region of south-western Vancouver Island, British Columbia. Fifty-five haplotypes were found with three haplotypes making up 38, 16 and 8% of the total sample, respectively. Within individual tidepools, haplotype diversity ranged from 0·30 to 0·92, but haplotypes were typically closely related to one another (nucleotide diversity ranged from 0·0004 to 0·005). The majority of haplotype variation (96–97%) was located within tidepools, but a significant amount of variation ( c . 3–4%) was detected among tidepools within single islands. By contrast, there was no significant differentiation among islands or between samples from the Barkley Sound area and a single sample from north-eastern Vancouver Island. The results suggest a low level of population structure within the sample area and that the distribution of haplotypes and haplotype divergences represents a demographic expansion from a single ancestral lineage beginning between 300 000 and 1 000 000 years ago. The low level of population subdivision resolved suggests that despite their ecological specialization in tidepool habitats, tidepool sculpins are influenced by demographic and genetic processes that operate on spatial scales much larger than single tidepools or islands.     

Mitochondrial DNA diversity in 17th-18th century remains from Tenerife (Canary Islands)

Mitochondrial DNA sequences and restriction fragment length polymorphisms were retrieved (with >80% efficiency) from a 17th-18th century sample of 213 teeth from Tenerife. The genetic composition of this population reveals an important ethnic heterogeneity. Although the majority of detected haplotypes are of European origin, the high frequency of sub-Saharan African haplotypes (15.63%), compared to that of the present-day population (6.6%), confirms the importance of the Canary Islands in the black slave trade of that epoch. The aboriginal substrate, inferred from the U6b1 haplotypes (8.59%), has also decreased due to European input. Finally, the presence of Amerindian lineages (1.5%) reveals that the Canary Islands have also received genetic flow from America.     

Association of restriction fragment length polymorphisms of swine leucocyte antigen class I genes with production traits of Duroc and Hampshire boars

Summary. Restriction fragment length polymorphism analyses of swine leucocyte antigen (SLA) class I genes were performed on 70 Duroc and 38 Hampshire boars from the 1986-87 national performance tests of each breed in the USA. Few boars were inbred. Southern blotting and hybridization procedures were performed on genomic DNA, isolated from white blood cells, using Pvu II endonuclease and a swine major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I probe. Durocs had an average of 11 restriction fragments, with the most common being in 63% of the boars and the least common appearing in only one boar. Hampshire boars had an average of 12 restriction fragments, with the most common appearing in 73% of the boars and the least common appearing in only one boar. Least squares procedures and stepwise regression methods were used to examine the association between DNA restriction fragments and the selection index (INDEX), average daily gain (ADG), average backfat thickness (BF), loin muscle area (LEA), and age at 104kg (DAY104). In the Duroc breed one DNA restriction fragment was associated with decreased INDEX ( P < 0.05) and decreased ADG ( P < 0.05) whereas two other fragments were associated with increased BF ( P < 0.05). In the Hampshire breed two restriction fragments were associated with an increase in INDEX ( P < 0.05). Cluster analyses were used to group pigs of each breed on the basis of similar RFLP patterns. One cluster group in the Duroc breed was associated with lower average INDEX values ( P < 0.05), greater average DAY104 ( P < 0.05), and a larger mean LEA ( P < 0.05). In the Hampshire breed one cluster group was associated with lower INDEX ( P < 0.05). These results suggest there may be an association between swine MHC class I genes and performance traits in swine. The use of SLA class I restriction fragments, as genetic markers, may have potential in the future for improving pig performance.
