Variable-number tandem repeat loci-discriminating Pleurotus ostreatus cultivars

Pleurotus ostreatus is one of the most important edible mushrooms. Many cultivars have been bred to meet consumer needs. The identification of cultivars based on the morphological characteristics is restricted because fruiting bodies are frequently capricious due to environmental conditions; accordingly, sequence-based methods are required. A total of 546 simple sequence repeat primers derived from the P. ostreatus genome were screened, and one primer, JHH_SSR-184, was found to show polymorphisms on the major cultivars in Korea. The sequences of the polymorphic loci showed variable-number tandem repeat loci-like features enabling cultivar specificity. Thus, these loci might be applicable to discriminate P. ostreatus cultivars.     

Development and characterisation of 140 new microsatellites in apple (Malus x domestica Borkh.)

The availability of suitable genetic markers is essential to efficiently select and breed apple varieties of high quality and with multiple disease resistances. Microsatellites (simple sequence repeats, SSR) are very useful in this respect since they are codominant, highly polymorphic, abundant and reliably reproducible. Over 140 new SSR markers have been developed in apple and tested on a panel of 7 cultivars and 1 breeding selection. Their high level of polymorphism is expressed with an average of 6.1 alleles per locus and an average heterozygosity (H) of 0.74. Of all SSR markers, 115 have been positioned on a genetic linkage map of the cross Fiesta × Discovery. As a result, all 17 linkage groups, corresponding to the 17 chromosomes of apple, were identified. Each chromosome carries at least two SSR markers, allowing the alignment of any apple molecular marker map both with regard to identification as well as to orientation of the linkage groups. To test the degree of conservation of the SSR flanking regions and the transferability of the SSR markers to other Rosaceae species, 15 primer pairs were tested on a series of Maloideae and Amygdaloideae species. The usefulness of the newly developed microsatellites in genetic mapping is demonstrated by means of the genetic linkage map. The possibility of constructing a global apple linkage map and the impact of such a number of microsatellite markers on gene and QTL mapping is discussed.     

DNA fingerprinting based on microsatellite-anchored fragment length polymorphisms,and isolation of sequence-specific PCR markers in lupin (Lupinus angustifolius L.)

We report a method of microsatellite-anchored fragment length polymorphisms for DNA fingerprinting. The method combines the concept of AFLP and the microsatellite-anchor primer technique. Genomic DNA was digested by one restriction enzyme MseI. One AFLP adaptor (MseI adaptor) was ligated onto the restriction fragments. DNA fingerprints were produced by PCR using one microsatellite-anchor primer in combination with one MseI-primer. The method allows co-amplification of over 100 DNA fragments containing microsatellite motifs per PCR. Polymorphisms detected from lupin by this method included those arising from variation in the number of microsatellite repeat units targeted by the microsatellite-anchor primers, from variation on the annealing sites for the SSR-anchor primers, from insertions/deletions outside the SSR region, and from variation in restriction sites. The first three types of polymorphisms were readily converted into sequence-specific PCR markers suitable for marker-assisted breeding.     

高粱抗旱种质筛选及遗传多样性的SSR分析

对61份高粱育种材料进行了抗旱性鉴定,旨在筛选既有较好抗旱性能又具较高丰产性能的高粱种质供育种利用。本研究筛选出抗旱性3级以上的材料14份,其中1级抗旱材料2份。选用109对SSR引物对61份高粱种质进行了遗传多样性分析,结果表明51对引物有较好的多态性,共扩增到508个等位变异片段,平均每个标记获得10个等位基因,多态性信息量(PIC)值平均为0.6615,变幅0.0322~0.9134。聚类分析结果表明,61份高粱材料聚成4类,聚类结果与根据地理来源、遗传背景的分类结果基本一致。中国高粱恢复系之间的遗传距离较近,说明我国目前的恢复系材料遗传基础狭窄,应在育种中拓宽恢复系的遗传基础。     

An improved technique for isolating codominant compound microsatellite markers

An approach for developing codominant polymorphic markers (compound microsatellite (SSR) markers), with substantial time and cost savings, is introduced in this paper. In this technique, fragments flanked by a compound SSR sequence at one end were amplified from the constructed DNA library using compound SSR primer (AC)₆(AG)₅ or (TC)₆(AC)₅ and an adaptor primer for the suppression-PCR. A locus-specific primer was designed from the sequence flanking the compound SSR. The primer pairs of the locus-specific and compound SSR primers were used as a compound SSR marker. Because only one locus-specific primer was needed for design of each marker and only a common compound SSR primer was needed as the fluorescence-labeled primer for analyzing all the compound SSR markers, this approach substantially reduced the cost of developing codominant markers and analyzing their polymorphism. We have demonstrated this technique for Dendropanax trifidus and easily developed 11 codominant markers with high polymorphism for D. trifidus. Use of the technique for successful isolation of codominant compound SSR markers for several other plant species is currently in progress.     

埃博拉病毒基因组中微卫星序列的分布分析

微卫星或简单重复序列(simple sequence repeat, SSR)在真核和原核生物以及病毒基因组中普遍存在,并被广泛用于遗传与进化研究。本研究从NCBI中下载埃博拉病毒属的四个不同种的埃博拉病毒全基因组序列,筛选36条作为实验材料,利用IMEx在线提取软件提取SSRs,用Python编程统计数据,从而分析SSRs在埃博拉病毒全基因组序列中的分布情况。分析得出,埃博拉病毒基因组序列中二型SSRs含量最为丰富,其次是一型SSRs,三型SSRs有少量,四型SSRs则更少,没有发现五型和六型SSRs。在更深入的分析中得出在埃博拉病毒属四个种中,含A/T碱基的SSRs含量远远大于含C/G碱基的SSRs。分析得出一型SSRs中(A)n/(T)n远多于(G)n/(C)n,二型SSRs中不存在(GC/CG)n,三型中也不存在(GGC/CGG/GCG/CCG/CGC/GCC) n。上述发现可能跟埃博拉病毒的致病机理有密切联系。通过对埃博拉病毒基因组序列中SSRs的分析,为研究埃博拉病毒的变异情况及致病机制提供更多参考。     

Microsatellite markers spanning the apple (Malus x domestica Borkh.) genome

A new set of 148 apple microsatellite markers has been developed and mapped on the apple reference linkage map Fiesta x Discovery. One-hundred and seventeen markers were developed from genomic libraries enriched with the repeats GA, GT, AAG, AAC and ATC; 31 were developed from EST sequences. Markers derived from sequences containing dinucleotide repeats were generally more polymorphic than sequences containing trinucleotide repeats. Additional eight SSRs from published apple, pear, and Sorbus torminalis SSRs, whose position on the apple genome was unknown, have also been mapped. The transferability of SSRs across Maloideae species resulted in being efficient with 41% of the markers successfully transferred. For all 156 SSRs, the primer sequences, repeat type, map position, and quality of the amplification products are reported. Also presented are allele sizes, ranges, and number of SSRs found in a set of nine cultivars. All this information and those of the previous CH-SSR series can be searched at the apple SSR database () to which updates and comments can be added. A large number of apple ESTs containing SSR repeats are available and should be used for the development of new apple SSRs. The apple SSR database is also meant to become an international platform for coordinating this effort. The increased coverage of the apple genome with SSRs allowed the selection of a set of 86 reliable, highly polymorphic, and overall the apple genome well-scattered SSRs. These SSRs cover about 85% of the genome with an average distance of one marker per 15 cM.E. Silfverberg-Dilworth and C. L. Matasci contributed equally to this work.     

Identification and mapping of polymorphic SSR markers from expressed gene sequences of barley and wheat

The growing availability of EST sequences from a range of crop plantsprovides a potentially valuable source of new DNA markers. We have examined theInternational Triticeae EST Cooperative database for the presence ofdinucleotide and trinucleotide simple sequence repeats. Analysis of 24,344 ESTsidentified 388 dinucleotide repeats and 978 trinucleotide repeats in ESTs,representing 1.6% and 4.0% of the total number of ESTs, respectively. To testthe utility and cross-species transferability of EST-derived SSR markers,primers were designed to the flanking regions of 41 barley SSRs and used toscreen 11 barley and 15 wheat varieties. Sixteen of the barley SSR markers werepolymorphic in barley and five were polymorphic in wheat. This represents arelatively high level of transferability of SSR markers between barley andwheat, which has important implications for the development of new markers andcomparative mapping of barley, wheat and other cereals. An additional 56 SSRsfrom wheat ESTs were tested in the same barley and wheat varieties. Four wheatEST SSR markers were polymorphic in wheat and one in barley. Chromosomallocations in barley and wheat were determined for the majority of polymorphicmarkers.     

Use of microsatellite polymorphisms for paternity exclusion in rhesus macaques (Macaca multatta)

A total of 224 infant rhesus macaques and their dams and potential sires in 11 multimale groups in 2 different specific pathogen free breeding colonies were screened for up to 6 different microsatellite polymorphism using cross-species PCR amplification. Observed and expected success of paternity exclusion analysis (based on gene frequencies of sires and dams in each colony) were computed by individual locus and cumulatively. Greater or less success of PEA than expected was observed at most loci due to the nonrandom distribution of genotypes between sires and dams and among breeding groups at each colony and because genotypes at different loci did not provide completely independent information about parentage. The combined success of PEA using all loci, however, was slightly greater than predicted both with and without assuming knowledge of one parent's (i.e. the dam's) genotype and was far greater than that based on protein coding loci or DNA restriction fragment length polymorphisms.     

Genetic diversity among Chinese Hami melon and its relationship with melon germplasm of diverse origins revealed by microsatellite markers

Thick-skinned melon called Hami melon is the most widely cultivated and exported type of melon in China, and mainly grown in Xinjiang province. Here the genetic variation of 64 melon genotypes including 43 Xinjiang Hami melon accessions was analyzed using 36 simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers yielding 145 alleles. The polymorphic information content of SSR markers ranged from 0.09 to 0.83 (average 0.45). Based on the SSR markers, the melon accessions were clustered into 2 major groups (thick and thin-skinned melons). In addition, the sub-cluster analysis based on SSR markers partitioned different botanical groups, even separating similar agronomic trait groups (Xinjiang landraces var. ameri and var. inodorus). SSR analysis showed that 4 SSR markers (CMBR150, CMCTT144, CMBR84 and CMBR12) produced polymorphic bands of different sizes between these two botanical groups. Those four molecular markers might be related to melon fruit maturing time. A considerably low level of genetic diversity was detected in Xinjiang melon accessions. Genetic distances indicated the relatively narrower genetic base but specific taxonomic status of Xinjiang landraces compared with foreign reference accessions.
