墨脱新光唇鱼（Neolissochilus hexagonolepis）属于雅鲁藏布江下游特有土著鱼类,具备良好的产业化开发前景。本研究测定了墨脱新光唇鱼的线粒体基因组全序列,并对其进行系统发育分析。结果表明：墨脱新光唇鱼线粒体基因组的大小为16 562 bp,包含13个蛋白编码基因（protein-coding genes, PCGs）、 22个转运RNA （transfer RNAs, tRNAs）基因、 2个核糖体RNA（ribosomal RNAs, rRNAs）基因和1个控制区（displacement-loopregion, D-loop）;碱基组成表现出明显的AT偏好性;13个PCGs仅nad6基因位于L链上,含量最高的氨基酸是亮氨酸（16.58%）;除tRNA^Ser（GCT）缺少DHU臂以外,其他21个tRNA基因都能形成典型的三叶草结构;D-loop区识别出3个结构域：终止序列区（termination associated sequence, TAS）、中央保守区（central conserved domain, CD）和保守序列区（conserved sequence block, CSB）;基于线粒体全基因组序列和线粒体细胞色素c氧化酶第1亚基（cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1,cox1）基因序列构建系统发育树,验证了墨脱新光唇鱼的系统发育地位及其分类符合新光唇鱼属（Neolissochilus）的特征。研究结果发现,雅鲁藏布江下游的墨脱新光唇鱼与印度的墨脱新光唇鱼遗传距离大于2.00%,分子水平差异较大,对两个种群是否为同一物种提出疑问。该研究为雅鲁藏布江下游流域墨脱新光唇鱼的分类鉴定、系统进化及资源保护等提供了参考依据。     

克氏光唇鱼线粒体基因组测定及光唇鱼属的系统发育分析

根据侧条光唇鱼(Acrossocheilus parallens)线粒体基因(mt DNA)序列设计引物,采用引物步移和PCR扩增产物测序,获得了克氏光唇鱼(A.kreyenbergii)的mt DNA全序列。结构分析表明,克氏光唇鱼mt DNA为首尾闭合的环状基因,全长16 596 bp,编码37个基因,包括13个蛋白编码基因、22个t RNA基因、2个r RNA基因和两段非编码区(D-loop和轻链复制起点OL),碱基组成具有明显的A+T偏好和反G偏倚现象。13个蛋白编码基因中,除COⅠ的起始密码子是GTG,其余基因的起始密码子均为ATG;终止密码子包括完全的终止密码子TAA(38.46%)和TAG(7.69%),不完全的终止密码子TA(15.38%)和T(38.46%)。在D-loop区的811～837 bp区间发现了一段\"TA\"短串联重复序列。从蛋白编码基因所包含的信息量、变异位点和变异率看,ND5、ND4、COⅠ和ND2最适合作为光唇鱼属种间系统发育分析的分子标记。采用贝叶斯法利用13个蛋白编码基因所构建的系统发育树显示,光唇鱼属和白甲鱼属(Onychostoma)的24种鱼类各自没有聚为单系群,相互间不能明确区分。

Genomic Treasure Troves: Complete Genome Sequencing of Herbarium and Insect Museum Specimens

Unlocking the vast genomic diversity stored in natural history collections would create unprecedented opportunities for genome-scale evolutionary, phylogenetic, domestication and population genomic studies. Many researchers have been discouraged from using historical specimens in molecular studies because of both generally limited success of DNA extraction and the challenges associated with PCR-amplifying highly degraded DNA. In today''s next-generation sequencing (NGS) world, opportunities and prospects for historical DNA have changed dramatically, as most NGS methods are actually designed for taking short fragmented DNA molecules as templates. Here we show that using a standard multiplex and paired-end Illumina sequencing approach, genome-scale sequence data can be generated reliably from dry-preserved plant, fungal and insect specimens collected up to 115 years ago, and with minimal destructive sampling. Using a reference-based assembly approach, we were able to produce the entire nuclear genome of a 43-year-old Arabidopsis thaliana (Brassicaceae) herbarium specimen with high and uniform sequence coverage. Nuclear genome sequences of three fungal specimens of 22–82 years of age (Agaricus bisporus, Laccaria bicolor, Pleurotus ostreatus) were generated with 81.4–97.9% exome coverage. Complete organellar genome sequences were assembled for all specimens. Using de novo assembly we retrieved between 16.2–71.0% of coding sequence regions, and hence remain somewhat cautious about prospects for de novo genome assembly from historical specimens. Non-target sequence contaminations were observed in 2 of our insect museum specimens. We anticipate that future museum genomics projects will perhaps not generate entire genome sequences in all cases (our specimens contained relatively small and low-complexity genomes), but at least generating vital comparative genomic data for testing (phylo)genetic, demographic and genetic hypotheses, that become increasingly more horizontal. Furthermore, NGS of historical DNA enables recovering crucial genetic information from old type specimens that to date have remained mostly unutilized and, thus, opens up a new frontier for taxonomic research as well.

Genome Sequencing and Identification of Gene Function in Rice

Rice is known to be one of the most important crops for human consumption. As the model cereal crop, large-scale sequencing of rice genome must play quite important roles both in theoretical research and practical application in rice breeding, which announces the opening of another new way to resolve the world food crisis. At present, the emphasis of rice genome research has been transferred from structure genomics to functional analysis. The discovery of new genes and annotation of gene function was believed to be an important issue in functional genomics research. In this article, the sequencing and functional research of the rice genome were reviewed. These results may provide some useful clues for rice genetic engineering and breeding practices.     

水稻基因组测序及基因功能的鉴定

水稻是重要的粮食作物。作为单子叶模式植物,水稻基因组的大规模测序具有巨大的理论价值和现实意义。目前已获得了籼稻“93—11”和粳稻“日本晴”高质量的基因组数据,这为在基因组水平上深入研究其生长、发育、抗病和高产等的遗传机理提供了便利,从而为进一步解决世界粮食危机提供了新的突破口和契机。随着水稻基因组计划的顺利结束,其研究重心也已由建立高分辨率的遗传、物理和转录图谱为主的结构基因组学转向基因功能的研究。结构基因组学研究获得的大量序列数据为揭示和开发功能基因开辟了广阔的前景。目前,利用图位克隆和电子克隆等方法已成功分离了多个水稻抗病、抗虫、抗逆境、抗倒伏、高产、优质等重要农艺性状相关的基因,对培育水稻新品种,促进农业的可持续发展意义重大。据估计,水稻至少拥有3．7万个非转座因子相关的蛋白编码基因。因此,完成全基因组序列测定后,重要基因功能的鉴定已成为当前基因组学研究的主要目标。反向遗传学、大规模基因功能表达谱分析和蛋白质组研究等策略已在研究水稻重要基因的功能方面发挥了重要作用。文章综述了水稻基因组测序及基因功能研究的现状,并就新基因发掘和基因功能注释的方法作了评述,期待为水稻遗传工程和育种实践提供参考。

Complete Genome Sequencing of Mosquito and Human Isolates of Ngari Virus

Ngari virus (NRIV) is a recently described, naturally occurring reassortant between two other orthobunyaviruses, Bunyamwera virus (BUNV) and Batai virus (BATV). Intriguingly, this reassortment was associated with the acquisition of heightened virulence, although the molecular basis for this is not understood. Here we report the first complete genome sequences of Ngari virus. We include five isolates from various geographical locations, as well as samples isolated from both mosquitos and human cases. Based on an analysis of these sequence data, NRIVs are clearly genetically distinct from all known BUNV and BATV strains but are very closely related to one another regardless of their source.     

Sequencing and comparative analyses of Aegilops tauschii chromosome arm 3DS reveal rapid evolution of Triticeae genomes

Bread wheat (Triticum aestivum, AABBDD) is an allohexaploid species derived from two rounds of interspecific hybridizations. A high-quality genome sequence assembly of diploid Aegilops tauschii, the donor of the wheat D genome, will provide a useful platform to study polyploid wheat evolution. A combined approach of BAC pooling and next-generation sequencing technology was employed to sequence the minimum tiling path (MTP) of 3176 BAC clones from the short arm of Ae. tauschii chromosome 3 (At3DS). The final assembly of 135 super-scaffolds with an N50 of 4.2 Mb was used to build a 247-Mb pseudomolecule with a total of 2222 predicted protein-coding genes. Compared with the orthologous regions of rice, Brachypodium, and sorghum, At3DS contains 38.67% more genes. In comparison to At3DS, the short arm sequence of wheat chromosome 3B (Ta3BS) is 95-Mb large in size, which is primarily due to the expansion of the non-centromeric region, suggesting that transposable element (TE) bursts in Ta3B likely occurred there. Also, the size increase is accompanied by a proportional increase in gene number in Ta3BS. We found that in the sequence of short arm of wheat chromosome 3D (Ta3DS), there was only less than 0.27% gene loss compared to At3DS. Our study reveals divergent evolution of grass genomes and provides new insights into sequence changes in the polyploid wheat genome.     

Draft Genome Sequencing and Comparative Analysis of Aspergillus sojae NBRC4239

We conducted genome sequencing of the filamentous fungus Aspergillus sojae NBRC4239 isolated from the koji used to prepare Japanese soy sauce. We used the 454 pyrosequencing technology and investigated the genome with respect to enzymes and secondary metabolites in comparison with other Aspergilli sequenced. Assembly of 454 reads generated a non-redundant sequence of 39.5-Mb possessing 13 033 putative genes and 65 scaffolds composed of 557 contigs. Of the 2847 open reading frames with Pfam domain scores of >150 found in A. sojae NBRC4239, 81.7% had a high degree of similarity with the genes of A. oryzae. Comparative analysis identified serine carboxypeptidase and aspartic protease genes unique to A. sojae NBRC4239. While A. oryzae possessed three copies of α-amyalse gene, A. sojae NBRC4239 possessed only a single copy. Comparison of 56 gene clusters for secondary metabolites between A. sojae NBRC4239 and A. oryzae revealed that 24 clusters were conserved, whereas 32 clusters differed between them that included a deletion of 18 508 bp containing mfs1, mao1, dmaT, and pks-nrps for the cyclopiazonic acid (CPA) biosynthesis, explaining the no productivity of CPA in A. sojae. The A. sojae NBRC4239 genome data will be useful to characterize functional features of the koji moulds used in Japanese industries.     

我国一株鹦鹉幼雏病病毒全序列测定与初步分析
