中华鲟性别相关的扩增片段长度多态性分子标记筛选

性别鉴定是生产养殖和物种保护中常用的技术。中华鲟Acipenser sinensis是我国特有的一种大型海河洄游性鱼类,已极度濒危。由于中华鲟性成熟时间长,缺乏第二性征,基于外部特征难以进行性别鉴定,因此,筛选中华鲟性别特异性分子标记具有重要意义。利用扩增片段长度多态性(AFLP)分子标记,用10条Eco R I-ANN引物和8条Mse I-CNN引物组成的80对引物,对9尾雄性和15尾雌性中华鲟个体进行PCR扩增和毛细管电泳荧光分型,检测其基因组DNA多态性,寻找与其性别相关的分子标记。在100~500 bp范围,共获得864个位点,其中具有多态性DNA位点411条,多态性位点比例为48.58%,并未发现雌雄特异性位点。但发现33个位点在雌雄个体中的比例存在较大差异,聚类分析显示大部分雄鱼聚为一支,雌鱼聚为一支,从而推断这些位点可能与中华鲟性别具有密切相关性。该研究首次尝试在中华鲟基因组中寻找性别特异性的AFLP分子标记,尽管未找到特异性标记,但这些数据为进一步研究中华鲟性别相关基因和性别决定机制奠定了基础。

Identification and validation of sex-linked SCAR markers in dioecious Hippophae rhamnoides L. (Elaeagnaceae)

The actinorhizal plant seabuckthorn (Hippophae rhamnoides L., Elaeagnaceae) is a wind pollinated dioecious crop. To distinguish male genotypes from female genotypes early in the vegetative growth phase, we have developed robust PCR-based marker(s). DNA bulk samples from 20 male and 20 female plants each were screened with 60 RAPD primers. Two primers, OPA-04 and OPT-06 consistently amplified female-specific (FS) polymorphic fragments of 1,164 and 868 bp, respectively, that were absent in the male samples. DNA sequence of the two markers did not exhibit significant similarity to previously characterized sequences. A sequence-characterized amplified region marker HrX1 (JQ284019) and HrX2 (JQ284020) designed for the two fragments, continued to amplify the FS allele in 120 female plants but not in 100 male plants tested in the current study. Thus, HrX1 and HrX2 are FS markers that can determine the sex of seabuckthorn plants in an early stage and expedite cultivations for industrial applications.     

Identification of RAPD markers linked to a fertility restorer gene for theOgura radish cytoplasmic male sterility of rapeseed (Brassica napus L.)

Bulked segregant analysis was employed to identify random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers linked to the restorer gene (Rfo) used in theOgura radish cytoplasmic male sterility of rapeseed. A total of 138 arbitrary 10-mer oligonucleotide primers were screened on the DNA of three pairs of bulks, each bulk corresponding to homozygous restored and male sterile plants of three segregating populations. Six primers produced repeatable polymorphisms between paired bulks. DNA from individual plants of each bulk was then used as a template for amplification with these six primers. DNA polymorphisms generated by four of these primers were found to be completely linked to the restorer gene with the polymorphic DNA fragments being associated either with the fertility restorer allele or with the sterility maintainer allele. Pairwise cross-hybridization demonstrated that the four polymorphic DNA fragments did not share any homology. Southern hybridization of labelled RAPD fragments on digested genomic DNA from the same three pairs of bulks revealed fragments specific to either the male sterile bulks or to the restored bulks and a few fragments common to all bulks, indicating that the amplified sequences are low copy. The four RAPD fragments that were completely linked to the restorer locus have been cloned and sequenced to develop sequence characterized amplified regions (SCARs). This will facilitate the construction of restorer lines used in breeding programs and is the first step towards map-based cloning of the fertility restorer allele.     

Screening and identification of random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers linked to mungbean yellow mosaic virus (MYMV) resistance in mungbean (Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek)

Bulk segregant analysis (BSA) and random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) techniques were used to analyse the F2 individuals of susceptible VBN (Gg) 2 × resistant KMG 189 to screen and identify the molecular marker linked to mungbean yellow mosaic virus (MYMV) resistant gene in mungbean. Two DNA bulks namely resistant bulks and susceptible bulks were setup by pooling equal amount of DNA from five randomly selected plants of each disease response. A total of 72 random sequence decamer oligonucleotide primers were used for RAPD analysis. Primer OPBB 05 (5′-GGGCCGAACA-3′) generated OPBB 05 260 fragment in resistant parent and their bulks but not in the susceptible parent and their bulks. Co segregation analysis was performed in resistant and susceptible F2 individuals, it confirmed that OPBB 05 260 marker was tightly linked to mungbean yellow mosaic virus resistant gene in mungbean.     

Cytological and molecular characterization of a novel monogenic dominant GMS in <Emphasis Type="Italic">Brassica napus</Emphasis> L.

A novel genic male sterile (GMS) line in Brassica napus L., which was identified in 1999, was found to be controlled by a monogenic dominant gene, which we have designated as MDGMS. The microspores of the MDGMS abort before the degradation of the tapetal cell layer. The F1 fertility from any fertile lines crossed with MDGMS segregated and the ratio was close to 1:1. Bulked segregation analysis (BSA) was employed to identify random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers linked to the Ms gene in MDGMS. Among 880 random 10-mer oligonucleotide primers screened against the bulk DNA of sterile and fertile, one primer S243 (5′-CTATGCCGAC-3′) gave a repeatable 1500-bp DNA polymorphic segment S243₁₅₀₀ between the two bulks. Analysis of individual plants of each bulks and other types of GMS and cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) lines suggest that the RAPD marker S243₁₅₀₀ is closely linked to the MDGMS locus in rapeseed. This RAPD marker has been converted into sequence characterized amplified region (SCAR) marker to aid identification of male-fertility genotypes in segregating progenies of MDGMS in marker-assisted selection (MAS) breeding programs.     

Identification of a RAPD marker linked to sex determination in Pistacia vera using bulked segregant analysis

The Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA (RAPD) technique was used to amplify DNA segments, with the objective of finding markers linked to sex determination in the dioecious species, Pistacia vera. Progenies from two female parents pollinated by a common male parent were studied. Two bulks of DNA were made in each cross, one from males and one from females, by pooling an equal weight of fresh leaves from each individual contributing to the bulk prior to DNA extraction. DNA was extracted from each bulked sample and from each of the contributing individuals. DNA was also extracted from 14 cultivars of P. vera and from 94 open-pollinated, fewweeks-old P. vera seedlings of unknown sex. Seven hundred different decamer oligonucleotide primers were used to perform DNA amplification, with 1 of these (OPO08) producing a 945 bp amplification band that was present only in the bulked female samples and absent in the bulked male samples of the two crosses. The relationship between band presence and female sex expression was conserved in every individual obtained from the two crosses and in the 14 cultivars unrelated to the crosses. We propose that this band is tightly linked to the gene(s) that control sex determination in pistachio. The OPO08₉₄₅ RAPD marker could be used in a breeding program to screen the gender of pistachio plants long before they reach reproductive maturity, resulting in considerable savings of time and economic resources. In order to verify that assumption we screened 94 additional seedlings with the OPO08 primer and obtained results consistent with a 11 male:female ratio.     

CHARACTERIZATION OF GENETIC MARKERS LINKED TO SEX DETERMINATION IN THE HAPLOID‐DIPLOID RED ALGA GRACILARIA CHILENSIS1

Bulk segregant analysis, random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD), and sequence characterized amplified region (SCAR) methods were used to identify sex‐linked molecular markers in the haploid‐diploid rhodophyte Gracilaria chilensis C. J. Bird, McLachlan et E. C. Oliveira. One hundred and eighty 10 bp primers were tested on three bulks of DNA: haploid males, haploid females, and diploid tetrasporophytes. Three RAPD primers (OPD15, OPG16, and OPN20) produced male‐specific bands; and one RAPD primer (OPD12), a female‐specific band. The sequences of the cloned putative sex‐specific PCR fragments were used to design specific primers for the female marker SCAR‐D12‐386 and the male marker SCAR‐G16‐486. Both SCAR markers gave unequivocal band patterns that allowed sex and phase to be determined in G. chilensis. Thus, all the females presented only the female band, and all the males only the male band, while all the tetrasporophytes amplified both male and female bands. Despite this sex‐specific association, we were able to amplify SCAR‐D12‐386 and SCAR‐G16‐486 in both sexes at low melting temperature. The differences between male and female sequences were of 8%–9% nucleotide divergence for SCAR‐D12‐386 and SCAR‐G16‐486, respectively. SCAR‐D12‐386 and SCAR‐G16‐486 could represent degenerated or diverged sequences located in the nonrecombining region of incipient sex chromosomes or heteromorphic sex chromosomes with sequence differences at the DNA level such that PCR primers amplify only one allele and not the other in highly specific PCR conditions. Seven gametic progenies composed of 19 males, 19 females, and the seven parental tetrasporophytes were analyzed. In all of them, the two SCAR markers segregated perfectly with sexual phenotypes.     

Identification of genetic markers for Korean native cattle (Hanwoo) by RAPD analysis

In order to develop the specific genetic marker for Korean native cattle (Hanwoo), randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis of 6 different cattle breeds was attempted by using 38 decamer primers. In comparison of RAPD patterns, two distinctive DNA bands specific for Hanwoo were detected. One was 296 bp of DNA fragment found to be specific only for female Hanwoo when primer GTCCACACGG was employed. In individual analysis of this RAPD marker was observed only in female individuals with the possibility of 85.3%. The other was 521 bp of RAPD marker amplified using TCGGCGATAG and AGCCAGCGAA primers, which showed 83.0% of genetic frequency in 85 male and 68 female individuals tested. Nucleotide sequencing of these genetic markers revealed that 296 bp marker has a short microsatellite-like sequence, ACCACCACAC, and a tandem repeat sequence of microsatellite GAAAAATG in the determined sequence. Two distinctive tandem repeats of microsatellite sequences, AAC and GAAGA, were also appeared in 521 bp DNA marker. In BLAST search, any gene having high homology with these markers was not found     

Male-specific DNA in the dioecious species Atriplex garrettii (Chenopodiaceae)

The mechanism of sex determination in dioecious species of the genus Atriplex (Chenopodiaceae) has not been determined. This paper reports the discovery of a male-specific DNA fragment in the diploid dioecious species A. garrettii. DNA samples extracted individually from ten male and ten female plants were bulked by sex. Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) fragments were generated in the two bulks in order to identify markers that were polymorphic between male and female plants. A total of 158 decamer primers were tested. A 2075 base-pair (bp) male-specific DNA fragment generated with the OPAF-14 primer was identified. The fragment was cloned and partially sequenced and 24-mer primers that exclusively amplified this fragment were constructed. When 124 male plants, 126 female plants, and one hermaphroditic plant were tested individually, the male-specific 2075-bp DNA fragment was present in the hermaphrodite and all but one of the male plants, and was absent in all female plants. A smaller DNA fragment (~1800 bp) that was homologous to the 2075-bp fragment was amplified from the single male plant that lacked the 2075-bp fragment. Cytogenetic analysis revealed no apparent heteromorphic sex chromosomes. These observations suggest that sex determination in A. garrettii is genetic, with no evidence of heteromorphic sex chromosomes.
