More than 5500 pig single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were recently identified and deposited in the public domain. To test the usefulness of these public SNPs, 109 SNPs were analysed for polymorphism within six commercial pig populations. A functional polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay was obtained for 103 SNPs and it was possible to validate c. 59% by PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism. Furthermore, polymorphism was found using a relatively limited number of genomic DNA samples, indicating that these polymorphisms are segregating at a useful frequency in these populations. The high percentage of validated markers demonstrates the utility of these public pig SNPs to identify loci responsible for economically important traits in commercial pig populations.  相似文献

Bois noir (BN) is an insect-transmitted grapevine yellows disease caused by phytoplasmas belonging to the stolbur subgroup 16SrXII-A. In Italy, increasing prevalence of stolbur phytoplasma strains in vineyards suggests progressive spread of the disease and potential for heavy impacts on the wine industry. In this study, we investigated the genetic diversity of stolbur phytoplasma strains in BN phytoplasma populations. Nucleotide sequences of 16S rRNA genes from stolbur phytoplasma strains affecting vineyards in the Lombardy region of Italy and stolbur phytoplasma 16S rDNA sequences retrieved from GenBank were subjected to virtual restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis. Calculation of virtual restriction similarity coefficients revealed the presence of new subgroups in group 16SrXII (stolbur phytoplasma group). Representative strains of confirmed new subgroups 16SrXII-F (XII-F) and XII-G and tentative new subgroups XII-A1 through XII-A19, XII-H, XII-I, and XII-J as well as known subgroup XII-A were from grapevines; strains representing three additional tentative new subgroups (XII-K, XII-L and XII-M) were from other plant hosts. Nucleotide sequence alignments identified no less than nine genetically distinct 16S rDNA single nucleotide polymorphism lineages from grapevine, indicating a high degree of genetic heterogeneity within BN phytoplasma populations. The findings open new opportunities for in-depth studies of the distribution of grapevine-associated 16SrXII phytoplasma strains in weeds, insect vector populations and grapevines from vineyards located in different geographic areas.  相似文献

This study focused on evaluating the genetic diversity among ‘Candidatus Phytoplasma mali’ (‘Ca. P. mali’) populations in orchards of north‐western Italy, where apple proliferation (AP) disease is widespread and induces severe economic losses. ‘Ca. P. mali’ was detected through restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis of PCR‐amplified 16S rDNA in 101 of 114 samples examined. Collective RFLP patterns, obtained by restriction analyses of four amplified genomic segments (16S/23S rDNA, PR‐1, PR‐2 and PR‐3 non‐ribosomal region, ribosomal protein genes rplVrpsC and secY gene), revealed the presence of 12 distinct genetic lineages among 60 selected representative ‘Ca. P. mali’ isolates, underscoring an unexpected high degree of genetic heterogeneity among AP phytoplasma populations in north‐western Italy. Prevalence of distinct genetic lineages in diverse geographic regions opens new interesting avenues for studying the epidemiology of AP disease. Furthermore, lineage‐specific molecular markers identified in this work could be useful for investigating the biological life cycle of ‘Ca. P. mali’.  相似文献

Two congeneric species of spadefoot toad, Spea multiplicata and Spea bombifrons, have been the focus of hybridization studies since the 1970s. Because complex hybrids are not readily distinguished phenotypically, genetic markers are needed to identify introgressed individuals. We therefore developed a set of molecular markers (amplified fragment length polymorphism, polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism and single nucleotide polymorphism) for identifying pure-species, F1 hybrids and more complex introgressed types. To do so, we tested a series of markers across both species and known hybrids using populations in both allopatry and sympatry. We retained those markers that differentiated the two pure-species and also consistently identified known species hybrids. These markers are well suited for identifying hybrids between these species. Moreover, those markers that show variation within each species can be used in conjunction with existing molecular markers in studies of population structure and gene flow.  相似文献

Genetic variation of the bovine thyroglobulin gene studied at the DNA level   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
The bovine thyroglobulin gene has been analysed for variation using restriction endonucleases. Six independent restriction fragment length polymorphisms have been identified. One of these results most probably from a 2.5-kb deletion, the others being compatible with point mutations. We determined that an individual taken at random within the Belgian White and Blue breed is, on average, heterozygous for one out of 1700 nucleotides within the thyroglobulin gene.  相似文献

Abstract

Objective: To investigate the association of caveolin-1 (CAV1) genetic variants (C239A (rs1997623), G14713A (rs3807987), G21985A (rs12672038), T29107A (rs7804372)) with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) susceptibility.

Methods: A total of 427 patients with ESCC and 427 healthy controls were genotyped using the polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method.

Results: There were significant differences between patients and controls in distributions of their genotypes and allelic frequencies in G14713A and T29107A polymorphisms. Furthermore, haplotype analysis revealed that haplotypes CAAT and CAGT were associated with high risk for ESCC, while haplotype CGGA was protective against ESCC. Stratified analysis showed the associations between the SNPs (G14713A and T29107A) and ESCC risk were noteworthy among female patients and patients who never smoke or drank alcohol.

Conclusions: Genetic polymorphisms of CAV1 G14713A and T29107A might affect an individual’s susceptibility in developing ESCC, making them efficient potential genetic biomarkers for early detection of ESCC.  相似文献

We report the identification of intraspecific sequence variation in the Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) growth hormone 1 gene. Rapid and inexpensive assays for polymorphism detection were developed for 10 sites. Five of the assays detected single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) using polymerase chain reaction–restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR–RFLP) analyses, and five were indel polymorphisms, detected using fragment length analyses. The average within population frequency of the most common allele varied from 0.52 to 0.90, and the average within population heterozygosity varied from 0.02 to 0.37 in seven European salmon populations.  相似文献

Abstract

Although DNA fingerprints are useful in individual identification and genetic linkage studies, expensive and time‐consuming laboratory procedures limit their practical application. By mixing blood from individuals within a population, a DNA fingerprint pattern representing the population can be obtained. The pattern was identical to that in which DNA from individuals was mixed, and was not improved by adjusting blood volumes according to hemoglobin levels.  相似文献

In this study, we evaluated the combination of polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) and amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) molecular typing techniques for the analysis of thermophilic campylobacter species isolated from clinical and poultry samples. 23S PCR-RFLP analysis performed to fingerprint 69 strains exhibited an excellent level of typability. Eleven different types were defined at 100% linkage level following numerical analysis of band patterns. Differentiation of Campylobacter jejuni and Campylobacter coli at species level was achieved although no significant relationship could be observed between the profiles and the origin of the strains. Simplified AFLP analysis of the isolates disclosed the presence of 66 different banding patterns. The resulting dendrogram showed a high diversity among the strains studied. All the isolates were grouped within eight main types with a 69% homology degree among them. Differentiation at subspecies level was possible but no significant relationship could be observed between the AFLP profiles and the origin of the strains. When used in combination, 23S PCR-RFLP and single-enzyme AFLP methods can be applied to determine taxonomic and epidemiological relationships among thermophilic campylobacters.  相似文献

Until recently, Tetrahymena thermophila has rarely been isolated from nature. With improved sampling procedures, T. thermophila has been found in ponds in many northeastern states. The availability of resident populations makes possible both population and ecological genetic studies. All seven known mating types have been recovered; no eighth mating type has been found. Crosses among whole-genome homozygotes derived from Pennsylvania isolates reveal a spectrum genotypes with mating type alleles resembling traditional A (IV- and VII-) and B(I-) categories. The genotypes differ significantly with respect to mating type frequency, both among themselves and from previously described genotypes. One A-category genotype appears to lack mating type II, while one A-category and all B-category genotypes have low frequencies of mating type III, thus accounting for the low frequency of III in the pond. The low frequency of III in all five B-category genotypes examined suggests that the founding allele in this region was low for III. These and other differences are discussed both in terms of mating type frequencies in the pond and in terms of the possible molecular structure of mat alleles. By contrast, numerous variants of the cell surface immobilization antigen are found in addition to the previously described i-antigens. Variants of the known SerH alleles include those with restriction fragment length polymorphisms and temperature sensitivity as well as alleles with new antigenic specificity. Multiple alleles are present in single ponds. Genes exhibiting serially dominant epistasis over SerH genes also are found. In two instances (K and C), families of antigenically similar polypeptides are expressed in place of H i-antigen. Molecular weight differences suggest that these paralogous i-antigen genes evolve by gene duplication and unequal crossing over within central repeats. The existence of complex patterns of epistasis together with seasonal changes in i-ag frequencies suggest that i-ag play an important, but as yet unknown, ecological role related to the occurrence of frequent conjugation.  相似文献

The restriction fragment length polymorphisms distribution and frequency of dystrophin gene in Chinese were studied by using 14 subclones of the entire 14kb cDNA for the dystrophin as hybridization probes. Allelic fragments were detected in hybridization patterns of PvuⅡ/la, Taq Ⅰ/2b-3, Taq Ⅰ/5b-7, and Xba Ⅰ/10. Among them, the allelic fragments (26kb and 3.8kb) in PvuⅡ/2b-3 pattern and the allelic fragments (10.0kb and 8.4kb) in Taq Ⅰ/5b-7 patterns had never been reported previously. Compared with the data from Caucasians and Japanese, it indicated that there was a significant difference (P<0.01) of the allelic fragment frequency in Taq Ⅰ/2b-3 and Xba Ⅰ/10 patterns between Chinese and Caucasians. The frequencies of allelic fragments A2 (5.6kb) in Taq Ⅰ/8 and A2 (10.Tkb) in EcoR Ⅴ/9 were high in Caucasians, yet had not been detected in Chinese, the differences were also highly significant. But in Chinese and Caucasians, the B1B2 allelic frequencies in Taq Ⅰ/5b-7 are the same. As to the frequency of the allelic fragments A1A2 and B1B2 in Pvu Ⅱ/la, there was no significant difference between Chinese and Japanese.  相似文献

The objective of this study was to search for polymorphisms in the ovine prion‐related protein (testis‐specific) gene (PRNT). Sampling included 567 sheep from eight Portuguese breeds. The PRNT gene‐coding region was analyzed by single‐strand conformation polymorphism and sequencing, allowing the identification of the first ovine PRNT polymorphisms, in codons 6, 38, 43 and 48: c.17C>T (p.Ser6Phe, which disrupts a consensus arginine‐X‐X‐serine/threonine motif); c.112G>C (p.Gly38>Arg); c.129T>C and c.144A>G (synonymous) respectively. Polymorphisms in codons 6, 38 and 48 occur simultaneously in 50.6% of the animals, 38.8% presenting as heterozygous. To study the distribution of the polymorphism in codon 43, a restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis was performed. Polymorphic variant c.129C, identified in 89.8% of the animals with 32.8% presented as heterozygous, was considered the wild genotype in Portuguese sheep. Eight different haplotypes which have comparable distribution in all breeds were identified for the PRNT gene. In conclusion, the PRNT coding region is highly polymorphic in sheep, unlike the prion protein 2 dublet gene (PRND), in which we previously found only one synonymous substitution (c.78G>A), in codon 26. The absence or reduced number of PRND heterozygotes (c.78G>A) was significantly associated with three PRNT haplotypes (17C‐112G‐129T‐144A,17CT‐112GC‐129CT‐144AG and 17T‐112C‐129C‐144G), and the only three animals found homozygous at c.78A had the 17C‐112G‐129C‐144A PRNT haplotype. These results constitute evidence of an association between polymorphic variation in PRND and PRNT genes, as has already been observed for PRND and prion protein gene (PRNP).  相似文献

In previous work, Coorg black pepper yellows phytoplasma (CBPYp), a ‘Candidatus Phytoplasma asteris'‐related strain, was identified in association with black pepper plants exhibiting yellows symptoms in southern India. In the present study, multiple gene (16S rRNA, tuf, rplV‐rpsC, secY and secA) sequence analyses were carried out for finer characterisation of CBPYp isolates identified in seven plants. Nucleotide sequences of each gene studied were identical among all the CBPYp isolates here analysed. Comparison of virtual restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) patterns, validated by actual digestion of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) products, revealed that CBPYp is a member of subgroups 16SrI‐B, rpI‐L, tufI‐B, secYI‐L and secA1‐A. Interestingly, alignments of nucleotide sequences with other ‘Candidatus Phytoplasma asteris'‐related strains revealed the presence of CBPYp‐specific single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), located in restriction sites for endonucleases not used for conventional classification. CBPYp‐specific SNPs in genes 16S rRNA, tuf and secA were detectable by virtual and actual RFLP assays, while SNPs present in rplV‐rpsC and secY genes were not located in any restriction recognition site. CBPYp‐specific SNPs can be used as molecular markers for the specific identification of CBPYp and for future research focused on investigating epidemiology and ecology of CBPYp in India.  相似文献

Summary Restriction fragment length polymorphism analyses of SLA class I genes were performed on 55 Duroc and 24 Hampshire boars from the 1986–87 national performance tests of each breed. Few boars were inbred. Southern blotting and hybridization procedures were performed on genomic DNA isolated from white blood cells by using Pvu II, Bam HI, and Eco RI endonucleases and a swine MHC class I probe. Genetic variability within and between the two breeds was estimated in terms of nucleotide diversity, by using a mathematical analysis based on the different RFLP patterns. The nucleotide diversity calculated within each breed was less than that between the two breeds. The results from the nucleotide diversity analysis suggested that genetic variability was greater in the Duroc breed than in the Hampshire breed. A relatively high level of genetic variability was shown in the class I major histocompatibility complex genes in the pig.  相似文献

High throughput genotyping technologies.   总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4  
A comprehensive genetic map containing several hundred microsatellite markers resulted from a large microsatellite mapping project. This was the first real study that introduced high throughput methods to the genetic community. This map and the concurrent technological advances, which will briefly be reviewed, led to further numerous mapping investigations of simple and complex diseases. The annotated draft sequence of approximately three billion base pairs (bp) of the human genome has been completed much sooner than many imagined, due to considerable technological advancements and the international enterprise that resulted. This was a major development for the genetics community, but is only the precursor to the next phase of studying and understanding the variation within the human genome. The awareness of the differences may help us understand the effects on the genetics of the variation between individuals and disease. It is these variations at the nucleotide level that determine the physiological differences, or phenotypes of each individual, including all biological functions at the cellular and body level. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) will provide the next high density map, and be the genetic tool to study these genetic variations. There are many sources of SNPs and exhaustive numbers of methods of SNP detection to be considered. The focus in this paper will be on the merits of selected, varied SNP typing methodologies that are emerging to genotype many individuals with the required huge number of SNPs to make the study of complex diseases and pharmacogenomics a practical and economically viable option.  相似文献

Nuclear DNA clones and sequence information derived from human genetic analyses were used to detect and characterize intra- and inter-species DNA variation at several nuclear loci in hominoids and cercopithecoids. Restriction fragment length polymorphisms were found at five loci among captive rhesus monkeys. Cross-species polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification detected an insertion within the beta-globin gene cluster in hylobatids. The combined use of cross-species PCR and denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis detected both species differences and intra-species polymorphism in the homeobox cluster 2 of hominoids. These results a) demonstrate that DNA clones and nucleotide sequence information from human molecular genetics can be used to facilitate studies of the molecular genetics of nonhuman primates, and b) document specific examples of intra- and inter-species molecular variability at several loci. © 1992 Wiley-Liss, Inc.  相似文献
