用SSR和AFLP技术分析花生抗青枯病种质遗传多样性的比较

由Ralstonia solanacearum E.F.Smith引起的青枯病是若干亚洲和非洲国家花生生产的重要限制因子,利用抗病品种是防治这一病害最好的措施。虽然一大批抗青枯病花生种质资源材料已被鉴定出来,但对其遗传多样性没有足够的研究,限制了在育种中的有效利用。本研究以31份对青枯病具有不同抗性的栽培种花生种质为材料,通过简单序列重复(SSR)和扩增片段长度多态性(AFLP)技术分析了它们的遗传多样性。通过78对SSR引物和126对AFLP引物的鉴定,筛选出能显示抗青枯病种质多态性的SSR引物29对和AFLP引物32对。所选用的29对多态性SSR引物共扩增91条多态性带,平均每对引物扩增3.14条多态性带;32对多态性AFLP引物共扩增72条多态性带,平均扩增2.25条多态性带。在所筛选引物中,4对SSR引物(14H06,7G02,3A8,16C6)和1对AFLP引物(P1M62)检测花生多态性的效果优于其他引物。SSR分析获得的31个花生种质的遗传距离为0.12-0.94,平均为0.53,而AFLP分析获得的遗传距离为0.06～0.57,平均为0.25,基于SSR分析的遗传距离大于基于AFLP分析的遗传距离,疏枝亚种组的遗传分化相对大于密枝亚种组。基于两种分析方法所获得的聚类结果基本一致,但SSR数据聚类结果与栽培种花生的形态分类系统更为吻合。根据分析结果,对构建青枯病抗性遗传图谱群体的核心亲本和抗性育种策略提出了建议。

Genetic diversity in bambara groundnut (Vigna subterranea (L.) Verdc) landraces revealed by AFLP markers.

Bambara groundnut (Vigna subterranea (L.) Verdc), an African indigenous legume, is popular in most parts of Africa. The present study was undertaken to establish genetic relationships among 16 cultivated bambara groundnut landraces using fluorescence-based amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) markers. Seven selective primer combinations generated 504 amplification products, ranging from 50 to 400 bp. Several landrace-specific products were identified that could be effectively used to produce landrace-specific markers for identification purposes. On average, each primer combination generated 72 amplified products that were detectable by an ABI Prism 310 DNA sequencer. The polymorphisms obtained ranged from 68.0 to 98.0%, with an average of 84.0%. The primer pairs M-ACA + P-GCC and M-ACA + P-GGA produced more polymorphic fragments than any other primer pairs and were better at differentiating landraces. The dendrogram generated by the UPGMA (unweighted pair-group method with arithmetic averaging) grouped 16 landraces into 3 clusters, mainly according to their place of collection or geographic origin. DipC1995 and Malawi5 were the most genetically related landraces. AFLP analysis provided sufficient polymorphism to determine the amount of genetic diversity and to establish genetic relationships in bambara groundnut landraces. The results will help in the formulation of marker-assisted breeding in bambara groundnut.     

Identification of a molecular marker for genotyping human lymphatic filarial nematode parasite Wuchereria bancrofti

In India, Mass Drug Administration is on going towards elimination of lymphatic filariasis in many areas, which might lead to intense selection pressure on the parasite populations and their genetic restructuring. This calls for molecular finger printing of Wuchereria bancrofti parasite populations at national level and monitoring genetic changes in the future. For this purpose a reliable, less expensive, rapid, and reproducible molecular tool is necessary, which is not available for W. bancrofti at this time. We identified robust molecular markers based on the comparison of random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) and amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) profiles and the genetic data generated from parasite populations collected from areas in Northern (Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh state), Southern (Kozhikode, Kerala State) and Central regions (Jagdalpur, Chattisgarh state) of India, where lymphatic filariasis is endemic for many decades. RAPD profiles for these parasite populations were generated using three different primers and the dendrograms constructed using the profiles were all different. In order to identify appropriate RAPD primer(s), we compared the results of RAPD with the fingerprint profile and genetic data obtained by the more reliable AFLP technique, using the parasite populations from the same areas. RAPD marker (OP8) primer produced phylogenetic data almost similar to that of AFLP analysis. The marker was able to reveal variations between the parasite populations collected from Varanasi, Kozhikode, and Jagdalpur. Most importantly, RAPD primer OP8 produced reproducible results, when tested in three different trials. In view of the limited availability of W. bancrofti parasite DNA, along with a lower cost and ease of performance, RAPD appears to be more suitable compared to AFLP at the present juncture, since complete genome information of this parasite is still not available. Thus, RAPD primer OP8 can be a very useful molecular maker for DNA finger printing of W. bancrofti populations at present.     

DNA fingerprinting of Cryptosporidium parvum isolates using amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP)

The genetic variability of 10 Cryptosporidium parvum isolates of human and animal origin was investigated using amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP). Analysis of fluorescent dye-labeled amplified products was carried out using an ABI PRISMS 377 DNA sequencer and ABI PRISMS GeneScan software. One-hundred and twelve primer combinations were evaluated using a single C. parvum isolate. The patterns generated were highly reproducible. For subsequent study, a subset of 9 primer pairs that yielded 30-90 DNA fragments after the polymerase chain reaction, within the size range of 50-500 bp, was used to screen the 10 C. parvum isolates, including 7 bovine, 1 equine, and 2 of human origin. The animal isolates produced identical fingerprint patterns with every primer combination tested. Of the 2 human isolates tested, 1 of the isolates, passaged in calves, generated the same AFLP DNA banding patterns as the animal isolates, whereas the other isolate, obtained directly from human feces, produced unique patterns. Polymorphism, detected by comparison of the fingerprint patterns of the latter human isolate with the common pattern shared by all other isolates, ranged from 17 to 35% for the 9 primer pairs. The results show that AFLP is a useful method for differentiating C. parvum isolates into 2 distinct genotypes.     

A comparative assessment of molecular marker assays (AFLP, RAPD and SSR) for white yam (Dioscorea rotundata) germplasm characterization

Several DNA‐based marker systems are available for genetic fingerprinting of plants but information on their relative usefulness for yam germplasm characterisation is lacking. The efficiency of RAPD, AFLP and SSR markers for the assessment of genetic relationships, and for cultivar identification and discrimination among 45 West and Central African white yam cultivars belonging to 22 morphotypes/cultivar groups was investigated. Dendrograms were produced based on band pattern scores using the UPGMA method. Results showed that each of the three techniques could unequivocably identify each cultivar, but that techniques differed in the mean number of profiles generated per primer (or primer pair) per cultivar, referred to as genotype index (GI). The order of merit based on this criterion in this study was AFLPs (GI = 2.56), SSRs (GI = 0.39) and RAPDs (GI = 0.35). Yam genotypes classified in the same cultivar group based on morphology were often genetically different, emphasising the need for molecular fingerprinting in yam germplasm characterisation. AFLPs showed the highest efficiency in detecting polymorphism and revealed genetic relationships that most closely reflected morphological classification.     

Distinction between cold-sensitive and -tolerant jute by DNA polymorphisms

Jute is the principal coarse fiber for commercial production and use in Bangladesh. Therefore, the development of a high-yielding and environmental-stress tolerant jute variety would be beneficial for the agro economy of Bangladesh. Two molecular fingerprinting techniques, random-amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) and amplified-fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) were applied on six jute samples. Two of them were cold-sensitive varieties and the remaining four were cold-tolerant accessions. RAPD and AFLP fingerprints were employed to generate polymorphism between the cold-sensitive varieties and cold-tolerant accessions because of their simplicity, and also because there is no available sequence information on jute. RAPD data were obtained by using 30 arbitrary oligonucleotide primers. Five primers were found to give polymorphism between the varieties that were tested. AFLP fingerprints were generated using 25 combinations of selective-amplification primers. Eight primer combinations gave the best results with 93 polymorphic fragments, and they were able to discriminate the two cold-sensitive and four cold-tolerant jute populations. A cluster analysis, based on the RAPD and AFLP fingerprint data, showed the population-specific grouping of individuals. This information could be useful later in marker-aided selection between the cold-sensitive varieties and cold-tolerant jute accessions.     

Analysis of Species Relationship Among Seven Small Millets Using Molecular Markers

Genomic DNA of twenty four accessions belonging to seven small millet species were analyzed for RAPD, RFLP and AFLP profiles for a comprehensive understanding of the level of genetic diversity within the species and relationships between them. Thirty random primers generated a total of 115 amplification products of which 70 were polymorphic across all species.Twenty-five probe enzyme combinations were used for RFLP analysis that revealed 87 loci of which 62 were polymorphic across the species.AFLP analysis was done at inter-specific level using 12 primer combinations.This generated a total of 869 fragments of which 821 were polymorphic across the species analyzed. Species-specific AFLP profiles were obtained in 10 of the 12 primer combinations tested. It was noticed that the intra-specific variability in all the RAPD and RFLP marker systems was negligible. Species-specific polymorphic loci were observed for all the marker systems.The results are discussed in relation to the genetic relationship among the seven species analyzed.     

Comparative Evaluation of RAPD and AFLP Based Genetic Diversity in Brinjal (Solanum melongena)

The present investigation was carried out with an objective of evaluating genetic diversity in brinjal (Solanum melongena) using DNA markers. A total of 38 brinjal accessions including one wild-species, Solanum sisymbrifolium were characterized using random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAP D) and amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) techniques. Out of 45 primers employed to generate RAPD profiles, reproducible patterns were obtained with 32 primers and 30 (93.7%) of these detected polymorphism. A total of 149 bands were obtained, out of which 108 (72.4%) were polymorphic. AFLP analysis was carried out using four primer combinations. Each of these primers was highly polymorphic. Out of 253 fragments amplified from these four primer combinations, 237 (93.6%) were polymorphic. The extent of pair-wise similarity ranged from 0.264 to 0.946 with a mean of 0.787 in RAPD, in contrast to a range of 0.103 to 0.847 with a mean of 0.434 in AFLP. The wild species clustered separately from the brinjal genotypes. In the dendrogram constructed separately using RAPD and AFLP markers, the brinjal genotypes were grouped into clusters and sub-clusters, and the varieties released by IARI remained together on both the dendrograms. All the 30 RAPD primers in combination and each of the four primer pairs in AFLP could distinguish the brinjal accessions from each other. AFLP was thus found to be more efficient than RAPD in estimation of genetic diversity and differentiation of varieties in brinjal.

Molecular genetic analysis of black poplar (Populus nigra L.) along Dutch rivers

The genetic structure of remaining black poplar ( Populus nigra ) trees on the banks of the Dutch Rhine branches was investigated using the AFLP technique. In total, 143 trees, including one P. deltoides and some P. x euramericana , were analysed using six AFLP primer combinations which generated 319 polymorphic bands. The AFLP patterns showed that some of the trees sampled as P. nigra were clearly different. These deviating patterns were also observed for the P. deltoides tree and all trees already identified as hybrid P. x euramericana . Hybrids between the two species are morphologically sometimes difficult to distinguish from the species itself. Two important possible source populations for recolonization of the riverbanks of the river Rhine, consisting of mature flowering P. nigra trees, appeared to consist of only a few genotypes each. In contrast, young black poplar trees growing alone or in small groups downstream of the possible source populations appeared to be predominantly generatively derived because no clones of mature trees were found among them. Therefore vegetative propagation seems a very local strategy whereas colonization of new areas appears to occur through generative propagation. Whether the genetic diversity within these black poplars is sufficient for recolonization of river banks and survival of the metapopulation is a question for further research.
