Genetic variation within and among populations of a wild rice Oryza granulata from China detected by RAPD and ISSR markers

Genetic variation within and between five populations of Oryza granulata from two regions of China was investigated using RAPD (random amplified polymorphic DNA) and ISSR (inter-simple sequence repeat amplification) markers. Twenty RAPD primers used in this study amplified 199 reproducible bands with 61 (30.65%) polymorphic; and 12 ISSR primers amplified 113 bands with 52 (46.02%) polymorphic. Both RAPD and ISSR analyses revealed a low level of genetic diversity in wild populations of O. granulata. Furthermore, analysis of molecular variance (AMOVA) was used to apportion the variation within and between populations both within and between regions. As the RAPD markers revealed, 73.85% of the total genetic diversity resided between the two regions, whereas only 19.45% and 6.70% were present between populations within regions and within a population respectively. Similarly, it was shown by ISSR markers that a great amount of variation (49.26%) occurred between the two regions, with only 38.07% and 12.66% between populations within regions and within a population respectively. Both the results of a UPGMA cluster, based on Jaccard coefficients, and pairwise distance analysis agree with that of the AMOVA partition. This is the first report of the partitioning of genetic variability within and among populations of O. granulata at the DNA level, which is in general agreement with a recent study on the same species in China using allozyme analysis. Our results also indicated that the percentage of polymorphic bands (PPB) detected by ISSR is higher than that detected by RAPD. It seems that ISSR is superior to RAPD in terms of the polymorphism detected and the amplification reproducibility. Received: 29 March 2000 / Accepted: 15 May 2000     

采用RAPD和ISSR标记探讨中国疣粒野生稻的遗传多样性

Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) and inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) methods were applied to detect genetic variation of 20 bulking samples and two individually sampled populations of Oryza granulata (Nees et Arn. ex Watt.) from China (M5 from Hainan Province and M27 from Yunnan Province). For the bulking sampled populations, 20 RAPD and 12 ISSR primers generated 209 and 122 bands, of which 134 (64.11%) and 89 (72.95%) were polymorphic respectively. For population M5, 146 and 95 bands were generated with 21.48% and 34.78% being polymorphic (PPB). For population M27, 151 (PPB = 17.22%) and 94 (PPB = 19.15%) bands of RAPD and ISSR were obtained. The results indicated that the level of genetic variation of O． granulata was lower than other species detected in the genus Oryza. UPGMA cluster based on genetic similarity and principle component analyses (PCA) based on band patterns divided the populations into two groups corresponding to their sources, which revealed that the majority of genetic variation of O. granulata occurred between Hainan and Yunnan. Consequently, more populations of the species should be considered for a reasonable conservation management. Comparison between the two marker systems showed that ISSR was better than RAPD in terms of reproducibility and ability of detecting genetic polymorphism. Mantel test revealed that the goodness of fit between them was significant (r=0.917, t=12.718) when detecting genetic diversity at species level, but was poor at population level (r<0.200). The discrepancy was considered as the facts that different fragments were targeted by RAPD and ISSR, and that evolutionary process of O. granulata varied at different hierarchical levels.     

Lack of genetic variation of an invasive clonal plant Eichhornia crassipes in China revealed by RAPD and ISSR markers

Random amplified polymorphic DNAs (RAPDs) and inter-simple sequence repeats (ISSRs) markers were used to analyze genetic structure of six populations of invasive plant Eichhornia crassipes that were sampled from its introduced regions in Southern China. Using 25 RAPD primers and 18 ISSR primers, 172 RAPD bands and 145 ISSR bands were produced respectively. But no polymorphic band was detected either within population or among populations by both markers, indicating the genetic diversity of E. crassipes in Southern China is extremely low, and all populations most likely consist of the same genotype. This study suggested that some other adaptability related factors, other than the genetic diversity, are responsible to the E. crassipes rapid expansion in China.     

Analysis of genetic variability and population structure of the endemic medicinal Limonium sinense using molecular markers

Limonium sinense is an endemic medicinal herb used to treat fever, hemorrhage and other disorders. In the present study, population genetic diversity was elucidated using random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD), inter simple sequence repeat (ISSR) and amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) primers. Percentage of polymorphic bands, Nei's gene diversity and Shannon's information index revealed a high level of genetic diversity at species level. The analysis of molecular variance revealed that 69.88% (RAPD), 71.19% (ISSR) and 70.97% (AFLP) of variability were partitioned among individuals within populations, which indicated the coherent trend by Gst (0.3849/0.3577/0.3670). Gene flow number (Nm) was 0.581/0.618/0.612, which indicated that there was a limited gene exchange between populations. The UPGMA clustering results showed that the genetic distance had no significant correlation with geographic distance. These results indicate that these markers were reliable tools for the differentiation and determination of the genetic diversity among the populations of L. sinense and the conservation of existing natural population is necessary.     

Evaluation of genetic diversity of <Emphasis Type="Italic">Clinacanthus nutans</Emphasis> (Acanthaceaea) using RAPD,ISSR and RAMP markers

Three polymerase chain reaction (PCR) techniques were compared to analyse the genetic diversity of Clinacanthus nutans eight populations in the northern region of Peninsular Malaysia. The PCR techniques were random amplified polymorphic deoxyribonucleic acids (RAPD), inter-simple sequence repeats (ISSR) and random amplified microsatellite polymorphisms (RAMP). Leaf genomic DNA was PCR amplified using 17 RAPD, 8 ISSR and 136 RAMP primers . However, only 10 RAPD primers, 5 ISSR primers and 37 RAMP primers produced reproducible bands. The results were evaluated for polymorphic information content (PIC), marker index (MI) and resolving power (RP). The RAMP marker was the most useful marker compared to RAPD and ISSR markers because it showed the highest average value of PIC (0.25), MI (11.36) and RP (2.86). The genetic diversity showed a high percentage of polymorphism at the species level compared to the population level. Furthermore, analysis of molecular variance revealed that the genetic diversity was higher within populations, as compared to among populations of C. nutans. From the results, the RAMP technique was recommended for the analysis of genetic diversity of C. nutans.     

采用RAPD和ISSR标记研究古尔班通古特沙漠东南缘梭梭种群的遗传结构

梭梭(Haloxylon ammodendron(CA Mey.)Bunge)是一种沙漠旱生优势树种,具有重要的生态和经济价值,然而,我们对梭梭种群的遗传多样性和遗传结构所知甚少.本文采用RAPD和ISSR标记对来自古尔班通古特沙漠东南缘的4个天然梭梭种群的遗传多样性和遗传结构进行了检测.5个RAPD引物和8个ISSR引物分别扩增出61和195条带,多态性位点比率分别为83.6%和89.7%,Shannon信息指数分别为0.333和0.367,RAPD和ISSR分析均表明梭梭种群的遗传多样性水平较高.利用分子方差分析(AMOVA)研究梭梭种群的遗传结构,结果表明,大部分遗传变异存在于种群内,通过RAPD分析发现138.2%的遗传变异发生在种群内;通过ISSR分析发现89.4%的遗传变异发生在种群内;而种群间的遗传分化很小.通过RAPD标记没有检测到种群间的遗传分化,ISSR分析表明10.6%的遗传变异发生在种群内.我们推测梭梭种群较高的遗传多样性水平可能源于对异质、高胁迫环境的长期适应,但还需要进一步的研究加以证实.种群间遗传分异低的主要原因是种群间存在强大的基因流.     

利用RAPD和ISSR标记分析烤烟品种间遗传关系

利用RAPD和ISSR标记对22份烤烟(Nicotiana tabacumL.)品种进行了遗传关系研究。在RAPD分析中筛选到13个引物,共扩增出167条带,其中多态性带50条,多态性比率为29.9%;在ISSR分析中筛选出7个引物,共扩增出96条带,其中多态性带44条,多态性比率为45.8%。两种标记相结合估算出的品种间遗传相似系数在0.881~0.979之间,平均为0.933。单独基于RAPD标记和ISSR标记的聚类结果有一定差异;两种标记结合起来的聚类分析结果与系谱信息吻合程度更高。定向选择可能对烤烟品种间遗传关系有较大影响;国外引进品种与国内育成品种并未完全分开,表明分子水平的遗传关系和地理来源间缺乏必然联系。

Genetic diversity of Alternanthera philoxeroides in China

Alternanthera philoxeroides (Mart.) Grisb was introduced into China in the 1930s, and today occurs in most regions of southern China. Techniques using random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) and inter-simple sequence repeats (ISSR) markers were applied to analyze genetic diversity of this invasive, weedy species. The fragments amplified by both 28 RAPD primers and 23 ISSR primers showed no polymorphic bands within and among the seven populations sampled. These results might be a consequence of the short introduction history in China and the clonal propagation of this aquatic plant. Although A. philoxeroides is widely distributed in China, the molecular data indicated its genetic diversity is extremely low, which implies that the low genetic diversity did not affect the success of its expansion in China. The rapid range expansion of A. philoxeroides is most likely the result of a massive clonal propagation since its introduction.     

Genetic diversity and population structure of Butea monosperma (Lam.) Taub.- a potential medicinal legume tree

Three molecular marker systems, Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA (RAPD), Inter-Simple Sequence Repeats (ISSR) and Sequence-Related Amplified Polymorphism (SRAP) were employed to investigate the genetic structure and diversity among the 14 natural populations of Butea monosperma collected from different geographical regions of India. Detected by 17 RAPD, 15 ISSR and 11 SRAP primer combinations, the proportions of polymorphic bands were 84.2 %, 77.2 % and 91.9 %, respectively, and the mean Nei’s genetic distances among the populations were 0.13, 0.10 and 0.13, respectively. Partitioning of genetic variability by Analysis of molecular variance (AMOVA) revealed that the high genetic diversity was distributed within the populations. AMOVA also revealed that the coefficient of gene differentiation among populations based on F_ST was very high irrespective of markers used. The overall gene flow among populations (Nm) was very low. Cophenetic correlation coefficients of Nei’s distance values and clustering pattern by Mental test were statistically significant for all three marker systems used but poor fit for ISSR data than for RAPD, SRAP and combined data set of all three markers. For all markers, a high similarity in dendrogram topologies was obtained, although some differences were observed with ISSR. The dendrogram obtained by RAPD, SRAP and combined data set of all three markers reflect relationship of most of the populations according to their geographic distribution.     

Determination of genetic diversity among Saccharina germplasm using ISSR and RAPD markers

Various species of genus Saccharina are economically important brown macroalgae cultivated in China. The genetic background of the conserved Saccharina germplasm was not clear. In this report, DNA-based molecular markers such as inter simple sequence repeats (ISSR) and random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) were used to assess the genetic diversity and phylogenetic relationships among 48 Saccharina germplasms. A total of 50 ISSR and 50 RAPD primers were tested, of which only 33 polymorphic primers (17 ISSR and 16 RAPD) had an amplified clear and reproducible profile, and could be used. Seventeen ISSR primers yielded a total of 262 bands, of which 256 were polymorphic, and 15.06 polymorphic bands per primer were amplified from 48 kelp gametophytes. Sixteen RAPD primers produced 355 bands, of which 352 were polymorphic, and 22 polymorphic bands per primer were observed across 48 individuals. The simple matching coefficient of ISSR, RAPD and pooled ISSR and RAPD dendrograms ranged from 0.568 to 0.885, 0.670 to 0.873, and 0.667 to 0.862, revealing high genetic diversity. Based on the unweighted pair group method with the arithmetic averaging algorithm (UPGMA) cluster analysis and the principal components analysis (PCA) of ISSR data, the 48 gametophytes were divided into three main groups. The Mantel test revealed a similar polymorphism distribution pattern between ISSR and RAPD markers, the correlation coefficient r was 0.62, and the results indicated that both ISSR and RAPD markers were effective to assess the selected gametophytes, while matrix correlation of the ISSR marker system (r = 0.78) was better than that of the RAPD marker system (r = 0.64). Genetic analysis data from this study were helpful in understanding the genetic relationships among the selected 17 kelp varieties (or lines) and provided guidance for molecular-assisted selection for parental gametophytes of hybrid kelp breeding.     

Planchonella, first record of gynomonoecy for the family Sapotaceae

Inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) markers were used to investigate the levels and pattern of genetic variation within and among populations of Pteroceltis tatarinowii Maxim., an endangered plant endemic to China. Of the 76 primers screened, 11 produced highly reproducible ISSR bands. A total of 118 bands were presented from the 11 selected primers across all individuals of five natural populations, corresponding to an average of 10.73 bands per primer. The size of the ISSR bands ranged from 200 to 2,000 bp. The percentage of polymorphic loci at the population level ranged from 77.97 to 86.44%, with an average value of 82.54%. Genetic differentiation among populations was revealed based on Nei’s genetic diversity analysis (19.41%) and the nonparametric analysis of molecular variance (20.62%). The Mantel test showed a significant positive correlation between geographic distance and genetic distance (r = 0.7758, P < 0.05), indicating a role of geographic isolation in shaping the present population genetic structure of P. tatarinowii. The size of the natural populations of P. tatarinowii was noted in field observations to be very small, chiefly owing to habitat destruction and overexploitation in the past decades. Therefore, effective measures for preserving genetic diversity of this species at the population level are needed and should include protecting its natural habitats and increasing the numbers of individuals. To meet the commercial demand for this species, P. tatarinowii plantations and cultivation facilities should be established as an alternative source of raw materials.

RAPD和ISSR标记对水稻化感种质资源遗传多态性的分析

运用RAPD和ISSR技术分析水稻化感种质资源的遗传多态性。从供试材料中筛选到具有多态性的RAPD引物12条,ISSR引物7条。RAPD引物共扩增到85条清晰的多态性条带,多态性条带比率为69．4％。ISSR引物共扩增到34条清晰的多态性条带,多态性条带比率为53．0％。对两种标记结果进行UPGMA聚类分析,结果极其类似,呈极显著的正相关(r=0．74)。聚类结果表明,地理位置相近的品种聚为一类。部分具有较强化感作用潜力的水稻品种亲缘关系很近,表明控制其化感作用性状的基因可能是等位的相同基因。而部分化感作用潜力差异显著的水稻品种聚为一类,这是由于人类在长期高产品种的定向选择过程中,水稻化感作用性状不被注意而丢失,遗传基础日益狭窄的原因。     

大连地区岛屿与大陆玉竹种群遗传多样性的ISSR分析

选取大连地区大陆与海岛共有植物玉竹为研究对象,采用ISSR分子标记技术对来自5个海岛和4个大陆种群的262个玉竹个体进行遗传多样性的比较和分析。从10个筛选出的ISSR引物扩增得到120个位点信息,其中多态性条带百分率为91.67%,Nei's基因多样性指数（h）为0.346 0,Shannon信息指数（I）为0.510 8。其遗传分化系数（G_st）为0.117 4,基因流（N_m）为3.758 5。研究结果表明玉竹天然种群的遗传多样性较为丰富,种群间基因交流较为频繁,遗传距离与地理距离具有一定的相关性。通过海岛与大陆种群遗传多样性的比对发现,海岛种群的遗传多样性略高于大陆种群,表明在孤立的生境和更为复杂的选择压力下,海岛玉竹种群可能会积累更多的遗传变异从而形成较高的遗传多样性水平。本文研究结果将为进一步探讨隔离生境中天然植物种群遗传进化规律提供证据。

Patterns of Genetic Variation in Swertia przewalskii, an Endangered Endemic Species of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau

Swertia przewalskii Pissjauk. (Gentianaceae) is a critically endangered and endemic plant of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau in China. RAPD and ISSR analyses were carried out on a total of 63 individuals to assess the extent of genetic variation in the remaining three populations. Percentage of polymorphic bands was 94% (156 bands) for RAPD and 96% (222 bands) for ISSR. A pairwise distance measure calculated from the RAPD and ISSR data was used as input for analysis of molecular variance (AMOVA). AMOVA indicated that a high proportion of the total genetic variation (52% for RAPD and 56% for ISSR) was found among populations; pairwise Φ _ST comparisons showed that the three populations examined were significantly different (p < 0.001). Significant genetic differentiation was found based on different measures (AMOVA and Hickory θ_B) in S. przewalskii (0.52 on RAPD and 0.56 on ISSR; 0.46 on RAPD and 0.45 on ISSR). The differentiation of the populations corresponded to low average gene flow (0.28 based on RAPD and 0.31 based on ISSR), whereas genetic distance-based clustering and coalescent-based assignment analyses revealed significant genetic isolation among populations. Our results indicate that genetic diversity is independent of population size. We conclude that although sexual reproduction and gene flow between populations of S. przewalskii are very limited, they have preserved high levels of genetic diversity. The main factors responsible for the high level of difference among populations are the isolation and recent fragmentation under human disturbance.
