朱砂叶螨体内感染的Wolbachia的wsp基因序列测定与分析

应用Wolbachia的wsp基因特异引物,通过PCR扩增法对我国朱砂叶螨Tetranychus cinnabarinus7个地理种群进行了检测。在采自黑龙江佳木斯、安徽安庆、江苏镇江和浙江慈溪的4个地理种群中扩增出了596bp左右的Wolbachia的wsp基因片段,而在河北威县、山东滨州和湖北赤壁3个地理种群中未发现这个Wolbachia特征基因片段,表明 Wolbachia在我国朱砂叶螨中的侵染较为普遍。通过对我国朱砂叶螨体内感染的 Wolbachia的wsp基因序列进行系统发育分析,得出它们全部与B大组的Ori组的Wolbachia株十分相近或完全相同,提示它们可能是相近或相同的株。     

朱砂叶螨热激蛋白HSP70基因TCHSP70-4的克隆与表达

为了研究朱砂叶螨Tetranychus cinnabarinus(Boisduval)热激蛋白HSP70的表达与其适应高温和低温胁迫的关系，我们利用物种的同源性及RACE 技术，获得朱砂叶螨热激蛋白HSP70基因1个，命名为TCHSP70-4（GenBank 登录号为EU977182）。该基因全长2 182 bp，包含1 959 bp的开放阅读框，编码653个氨基酸，理论分子量为70.9 kDa，等电点为5.4，含有HSP70家族高度保守的基序。运用real-time PCR分析冷激（4℃）和热激（40℃）1 h后TCHSP70-4在朱砂叶螨体内的表达量。结果显示冷激后TCHSP70-4表达量明显下降，而热激后TCHSP70-4表达量却明显上升。这些结果一方面表明该基因属于诱导型HSP70基因，另一方面揭示了朱砂叶螨分别受到冷和热胁迫后体内TCHSP70-4的表达及所起的保护作用是不同的。

貂、狐、貉源犬瘟热病毒的分离鉴定与序列分析（英文）

采用能稳定表达犬信号淋巴细胞活性分子（SLAM）的Vero-DST细胞从发病貉、狐狸和水貂病料,分离获得5株病毒,经电镜形态观察、RT-PCR检测、理化特性测定和人工感染发病试验鉴定,均为犬瘟热病毒（CDV）,分别命名为HT-P（貉源）、THD1（貉源）、HD（貂源）、LN（貂源）和HB（狐源）。5个分离毒株TCID50为10-5.2～-7.3/ml;除鸡、鹅红细胞呈微弱阳性外,其余均未见血凝作用;对乳鼠的LD50分别为2×10-3.8～-4.8/ml,对实验兔无致病性,对貉有明显致病性作用。5株CDV H和N基因序列分析结果为5个分离株之间H基因nt序列同源性均达到97.5%以上,HT-P（貉源,山东青岛）与THD1（貉源,山东潍坊）的aa同源性为100%,二者与其他分离株间aa序列同源性为87.9%～99.1%;与chn等疫苗株基因nt序列和推导aa序列同源性普遍较低,分别为90.5～91.8和89.%～91.8%。5个分离株之间N基因nt序列同源性均≥94.5%,HT-P与THD1同源性最高（99.8%）,分离株之间aa序列除HT-P、THD1与HD（貂源,山东青岛）同源性较高（99.0%以上）外,其他．分离株之间同源性低。与chn等疫苗株nt序列同源性较低（90．9～93．5％）。此外,HD和LN（貂源,辽宁大连）发病区域相距较远,但具有较高的同源性,但与HB（狐源,河北沦州）具有相对较低的nt同源性,提示野毒株在易感动物上可能存在种属差异。分离毒株与疫苗株之间H和N蛋白基因差异,可能与CD免疫失败有关。

Phylogenetic study of Baylisascaris schroederi isolated from Qinling subspecies of giant panda in China based on combined nuclear 5.8S and the second internal transcribed spacer (ITS-2) ribosomal DNA sequences

The nuclear ribosomal DNA (rDNA) region spanning 5.8S rDNA and the second internal transcribed spacer (ITS-2) of Baylisascaris schroederi isolated from the Qinling subspecies of giant panda in Shaanxi Province, China were amplified and sequenced. Sequence variations in the two rDNA regions within B. schroederi and among species in the family Ascarididae were examined. The lengths of B. schroederi 5.8S and ITS-2 rDNA sequences were 156 bp and 327 bp, respectively, and no nucleotide variation was found in these two rDNA regions among the 20 B. schroederi samples examined, and these ITS-2 sequences were identical to that of B. schroederi isolated from giant panda in Sichuan province, China. The inter-species differences in 5.8S and ITS-2 rDNA sequences among members of the family Ascarididae were 0-1.3% and 0-17.7%, respectively. Phylogenetic relationships among species in the Ascarididae were re-constructed by Bayesian inference (Bayes), maximum parsimony (MP), and maximum likelihood (ML) analyses, based on combined sequences of 5.8S and ITS-2 rDNA. All B. schroederi samples clustered together and sistered to B. transfuga with high posterior probabilities/bootstrap values, which further confirmed that nematodes isolated from the Qinling subspecies of giant panda in Shaanxi Province, China represent B. schroederi. Because of the large number of ambiguously aligned sequence positions (difficulty of inferring homology by positions), ITS-2 sequence alone is likely unsuitable for phylogenetic analyses at the family level, but the combined 5.8S and ITS-2 rDNA sequences provide alternative genetic markers for the identification of B. schroederi and for phylogenetic analysis of parasites in the family Ascarididae.     

Comparison of the internal transcribed spacer, ITS-1, from Sarcocystis falcatula isolates and Sarcocystis neurona.

The genetic diversity among 6 Sarcocystis falcatula isolates derived from geographically distinct regions in the U.S.A. was detected using the first internal transcribed spacer region 1 (ITS-1) of the rRNA gene. These sequences were then compared to the full sequence from a Sarcocystis neurona isolate obtained from a California horse diagnosed with equine protozoal myeloencephalitis. No nucleotide differences were detected over partial sequence analysis of 2 additional S. neurona isolates: however, the complete nucleotide sequence for the ITS-1 region was not compared. Twelve nucleotide differences were consistently detected when aligned sequences of S. neurona were compared to those of the S. falcatula isolates. Additional nucleotide base changes were detected among the S. falcatula isolates, but these changes were not consistent in all the S. falcatula isolates. These results indicate that S. falcatula may be comprised of a heterogeneous population and that the ITS-1 region can be used to distinguish S. neurona from S. falcatala used in this study.     

Discrimination between <Emphasis Type="Italic">Haemaphysalis longicornis</Emphasis> and <Emphasis Type="Italic">H. qinghaiensis</Emphasis> based on the partial 16S rDNA and the second internal transcribed spacer (ITS-2)

In the present study, two hard tick species, Haemaphysalis longicornis and H. qinghaiensis from North-western China were characterized genetically by the second internal transcribed spacer (ITS-2) of nuclear ribosomal DNA and partial 16S rDNA. Based on a fragment within the hypervariable region of 16S rDNA with the length of approximately 453 bp, the phylogenetic trees were constructed by Neighbor-Joining and Maximum-parsimony methods. The results indicated that the phylogenetic status of H. qinghaiensis was distant from that of H. longicornis and closer to H. flava. Furthermore, the ITS-2 rDNA was amplified by PCR and sequenced from individual ticks. The length of ITS-2 is 1,606 bp for H. longicornis and 1,162 bp for H. qinghaiensis. Although sequence variation between the immature stages of H. longicornis was 0.1–0.4%, nucleotide differences between the tested species ranged 2.1–23.2%, indicating that ITS-2 rDNA sequences are genetic markers for the differentiation of the two hard ticks in China. Hence, a PCR-linked restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) approach was developed for their unequivocal differentiation based on ITS-2 rDNA, which provides the foundation for further studies on ticks in China and has implications for studying the population genetic structure of the ticks and for identification and differentiation of closely related ticks.     

ITS-PCR sequencing approach deciphers molecular phylogeny in chickpea

Twenty chickpea accessions belonging to ten different countries of the world have been subjected to phylogeny and length variations from nuclear ribosomal DNA (nr DNA). ITS1–5.8S–ITS2 regions of Cicer accessions were used for amplification in two sets, each comprising a reverse and forward ITS primers. Lengths of ITS-1 of C. arietinum and C. reticulatum ranged from 340 to 350 bp whereas that of ITS-2 from 400 to 410 bp. In all the 20 accessions investigated, GC content in ITS-1 ranged from 40 to 55% and in ITS-2 from 42 to 55%. Sequencing of polymerase chain reaction product from ITS-1 showed variability in 278 and 290 bp due to adenine and guanine nucleotide base pairs. BLAST search for ITS-1 region revealed highest homology (99%) with four strains of C. arietinum accessions. Whereas, ITS2 showed 100% homology with C. arietinum and 99% homology with that of C. echinospermum.     

水稻条纹病毒中国分离物和日本分离物RNA2节段序列比较

测定了来源于我国水稻条纹叶枯病常年流行区的云南楚雄(CX)及病害暴发区的江苏洪泽(HZ)的水稻条纹病毒(RSV)2个分离物RNA2全长序列,其长度分别为3506bp和3514 bp.与已报道的日本T和O分离物RNA2序列进行比较的结果表明,这4个分离物可分为两组,其中,HZ、T和O分离物为一组,组内分离物之间,RNA2的毒义链(vRNA2)及RNA2的毒义互补链(vcRNA2)上的ORF的核苷酸一致性分别为97.2%～98.0%和96.8%～97.1%,5′端和3′端非编码区的序列则完全一致.但HZ分离物与T分离物的亲缘关系更为密切,其基因间隔区(IR)与T和O分离物的等长.另一组为我国CX分离物,组与组之间,vRNA2及vcRNA2上的ORF的核苷酸一致性分别为95.0%～95.7%和93.9%～94.4%.CX分离物的IR与HZ分离物相比缺失了一段8 nt的片段.5′端非编码区的序列完全一致,但3′末端非编码区有一个碱基的差异.这些结果表明,RSV在自然界的分子变异与其地理分布具有密切的关系.此外,非编码区序列的高度保守性暗示着它们在病毒基因转录和复制的调控方面具有重要的功能.本文还讨论了RSV的分子流行病学.     

The First Internal Transcribed Spacer (ITS-1) of Ribosomal DNA as a Molecular Marker for Phylogenetic and Population Analyses in Crustacea

The objective of the present study is to explore the feasibility of using the first internal transcribed spacer (ITS-1) of ribosomal DNA as a molecular marker for studying the interspecific and intraspecific genetic variations among crustaceans. We designed primers that could amplify ITS-1 from a majority of taxonomic groups of crustaceans. The gene was found to exhibit a high degree of length polymorphism among different groups, ranging from 182 bp in the barnacle Balanus amphitrite to approximately 820 bp in the spiny lobster Panulirus japonicus. With respect to differences between congeneric species, it was found that the ITS-1 sequences of 3 mitten crabs, Eriocheir sinensis, Eriocheir leptognathus, and Eriocheir formosa, exhibit 5.4% to 16.3% nucleotide divergence, suggesting that ITS-1 is informative for phylogenetic analysis at the species level. Yet there are extensive (0.9%–2.3%) variations within individual E. formosa, so that phylogenetic analyses could be obscured. ITS-1 was found to vary between 2 geographical populations of the shrimp Penaeus japonicus. The variations involved substitutions as well as insertions/deletions between shrimp from Australia and South China Sea. These results show that ITS-1 is highly divergent among different crustaceans and could be an appropriate marker for molecular systematic studies at the species and population levels, although the presence of intragenomic variation needs to be taken into consideration.

基于18S rRNA和线粒体16S rRNA基因序列的柳蚕进化分析

为探讨柳蚕Actias selene Hübner与鳞翅目昆虫的系统发育关系,本研究利用PCR扩增获得了柳蚕核糖体18S rRNA和线粒体16S rRNA基因的部分序列,长度分别为391bp和428bp。并采用邻近距离法(NJ)、最大简约法(MP)、类平均聚类法(UPGMA)构建系统进化树。结果表明,柳蚕线粒体16SrRNA基因序列与大蚕蛾科昆虫的16SrRNA基因序列均表现出偏好于碱基AT的倾向。柳蚕与所研究的其它蚕类的遗传距离介于0.016至0.140之间,其中与温带柞蚕Antheraea roylii的遗传距离最小,与野桑蚕Bombyx mandarina的遗传距离最大。而基于鳞翅目昆虫18S rRNA基因部分序列的进化分析显示,柳蚕与柞蚕Antheraea pernyi之间的遗传距离最小(0.010),与蓖麻蚕Samia ricini的遗传距离最大(0.017)。     

The internal transcribed spacer 1 (ITS-1), a controversial marker for the genetic diversity of Trypanosoma evansi

Seven Trypanosoma evansi isolates from China and a Trypanosoma congolense sp. gifted from Kenya were characterized genetically by the internal transcribed spacer 1 (ITS-1) of nuclear ribosomal DNA (rDNA). The ITS-1 rDNA with the length of 338–342 bp was amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and sequenced from individual isolates of T. evansi. Although sequence variation between T. evansi isolates from China only was 0.3–3.8%, the constructed phylogenetic tree based on the ITS-1 rDNA sequence by the method of neighbor-joining and maximum parsimony revealed the genetic diversity among T. evansi isolates from China. For T. congolense sp., the most phylogenetically related species was T. congolense IL1180. Although the sequence variation ranged 0.8–14.5% between T. congolense isolates, the phylogenetic tree can not reflected the genetic diversity among T. congolense isolates perhaps because of the fewer number of isolates and sequences. The data could be applicable for the survey of parasite dynamics, epidemiological studies as well as prevention and control of the disease.
