吉富罗非鱼雌雄群体遗传差异的SSR分析

为探讨吉富罗非鱼(genetic improvement of farmed tilapia,GIFT)雌、雄群体间的遗传差异,本研究对国家级广西南宁罗非鱼良种场雌、雄吉富罗非鱼进行了遗传差异分析。研究结果表明,选取的11对SSR引物中有10对能获得稳定的目的条带;每个SSR基因座的等位基因数在2～4个之间,雌性罗非鱼的平均等位基因(Na)2.9个,稍高于雄性的2.8个;雌、雄吉富罗非鱼平均观察杂合度(HO)分别为0.4183和0.4154,多态信息含量(PIC)分别为0.4048和0.3932,属中度多态;雌雄个体间的遗传距离和相似性指数分别为0.0908和0.9132。此外,SSR基因座PRL-SO2在雄鱼中偏离Hardy Weinberg平衡(P0.005)。上述结果表明,吉富罗非鱼雌、雄群体的SSR多态性基本相同,推测这两者基因组间的差异较小。

遗传改良"新吉富" (NEW GIFT)尼罗罗非鱼RAPD-SCAR标记开发及其在品系鉴别中的应用

“新吉富”(NEW GIFT)尼罗罗非鱼是以1994年引进的 “吉富”(GIFT)品系尼罗罗非鱼为基础群体,经过14年9代系统选育后获得的新品种,该品种已被国家审定为良种,已在全国推广,迫切需要有效的分子遗传标记来鉴别该新品种并实施科学管理。该研究对良种群体开展了RAPD分析,并进一步将特异性的RAPD标记转化成了稳定的SCAR标记。 通过对“新吉富”群体的RAPD分析,找到了两个品种特异性的RAPD条带（S₃₀₄^{624 bp}和S₃₆^{568 bp}）。对品种特异性的RAPD条带进行了胶回收、克隆和序列测定。根据测序结果设计了两对位点特异性引物来扩增这两个品种特异性条带（简称SCAR标记Ⅰ和Ⅱ）,检测这两个SCAR标记在“新吉富”、“吉富”以及国内外7个养殖品系中的出现频率。SCAR标记Ⅰ（553 bp）在“新吉富”群体中的出现频率为85.7%,而在其基础群体（“吉富”）中的出现频率仅为16.7%;SCAR标记Ⅱ（558 bp）在“新吉富”群体中的出现频率达到91.4%,但在其它7个养殖品系中的出现频率仅在0%～70%之间。为验证这两个标记的可靠性,检测了这两个标记在一个埃及罗非鱼野生群体中的出现频率,发现SCAR标记Ⅰ和SCAR标记Ⅱ的出现频率分别为10%和70%,远低于在“新吉富”群体中的出现频率。这两个SCAR标记在“新吉富”良种群体中的高出现频率,预示它们可能与生长性能相关QTL位点间存在连锁关系,显示SCAR标记技术对选育世代间的纵向追溯、以及选育良种群体与其它养殖品系间的横向鉴别有较好应用前景。     

吉富罗非鱼IGF2基因分离及其单核苷酸多态性与体型、增重相关性

胰岛素样生长因子2(insulin-like growth factor2,IGF2)是控制动物生长和脂肪沉积的重要基因之一。本文采用PCR方法分离了吉富罗非鱼(GIFT strain Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus)IGF2基因5475bp,包含由4个外显子组成的整个阅读框669bp以及3个内含子。通过比对吉富罗非鱼10个个体IGF2序列,共发现11处单核苷酸多态性(single nucleotide polymorphism,SNP)位点,本文检测了内含子1的621nt(C/T)和外显子3的161nt(A/G)两位点在192尾吉富罗非鱼中的基因型分布,并分析不同基因型与体型、增重的相关性。使用四引物扩增受阻体系PCR检测内含子1的621nt基因型,结果显示,CC、CT、TT基因型频率在雄鱼中分别为0.32、0.32、0.36,在雌鱼中分别为0.38、0.38、0.24;与体型、增重的相关性分析表明,此位点不同基因型只与雄鱼体型(体高/体长)显著相关(P0.05),CC型个体显著高于CT和TT型个体。外显子3的A/G转换导致了MSPⅠ酶切位点改变,使用PCR-RFLP法检测该位点基因型,结果显示整个群体中不存在AA基因型,在雄鱼中,GG、AG基因型频率分别为0.71、0.29,而雌鱼中则为0.75和0.25;与体型、增重的相关性分析表明,此位点不同基因型只与雄鱼增重极显著相关(P0.01),GG型的雄鱼明显较AG型增重快。     

Genetic characterization of four strains of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus L.) using microsatellite markers

Four domesticated strains of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus L.) were genetically characterized using 14 microsatellite markers and 64 animals per strain. Two strains, Chitralada (AIT) and International Development Research Centers (IDRC) were obtained from the AIT institute, Bangkok, Thailand. The GIFT strain (5th generation) came from NAGRI, Thailand, and the GÖTT strain was supplied by the University of Göttingen, Germany. The average numbers of alleles per marker were 5.0 (GÖTT), 5.4 (AIT), 5.6 (IDRC) and 7.5 (GIFT). Private alleles were found at all markers with the exception of two. No fixation of alleles was found at any marker. Population differentiation, F_ST, was 0.178 (great genetic differentiation) and confirmed grouping of the animals in strains. The expected level of heterozygosity ranged from 0.624 to 0.711, but the observed level of heterozygosity significantly deviated from the expected level in three strains. This was probably because of small population size. Moderate to great genetic differentiation was found between strains. A phylogenetic tree reflected the strains known histories. Application of the Weitzman approach showed that all strains have added value for the total genetic diversity and thus should be retained.     

尼罗罗非鱼Orexin前体基因的克隆、组织分布及其在摄食调控中的表达

该文采用RT-PCR和cDNA末端快速扩增技术(rapid-amplification of cDNA ends,RACE)的方法,从尼罗罗非鱼(Oreochromis niloticus)下丘脑总RNA中获得了尼罗罗非鱼Orexin前体基因的cDNA全长序列。该cDNA全长648bp,其中开放阅读框的长423bp,编码Orexin前体蛋白为140个氨基酸,包括37个氨基酸的信号肽、43个氨基酸的Orexin-A、28个氨基酸的Orexin-B和末尾32个氨基酸组成的功能不详的多肽。采用Real-time PCR技术对尼罗罗非鱼Orexin前体基因的组织表达模式以及在摄食前后、饥饿和再投喂状态下的表达量变化进行了研究。结果显示,在脑部和外周等18个组织中都检测到了Orexin前体基因的表达,其中在下丘脑中表达量最高;在摄食前后,尼罗罗非鱼Orexin前体基因的表达量显著低于在摄食状态中;饥饿2、4、6和8d后,Orexin前体基因在下丘脑中的表达量与正常投喂组相比均显著升高,饥饿4d再投喂后,表达量又恢复至正常水平。这些结果表明,Orexin在尼罗罗非鱼摄食中可能有着重要的调节作用。     

Bone development in the jaw of Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus (Pisces: Cichlidae)

East African cichlids have evolved feeding apparatus morphologies adapted to their diverse feeding behaviors. The evolution of the oral jaw morphologies is accomplished by the diversity of bone formation during development. To further understand this evolutionary process, we examined the skeletal elements of the jaw and their temporal and sequential emergence, categorized by developmental stages, using the Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus as a model cichlid. We found that chondrogenesis started in Stage 17. The deposition of osteoid for the dermal bones commenced in Stage 18. The uptake of calcium dramatically shifted from the surface of larvae to the gills in Stage 20. The bone mineralization of the skeleton began in Stage 25. These data provide important information regarding the sequential events of craniofacial development in East African cichlids and lay the groundwork for studying the molecular mechanisms underlying adaptation of jaw structure to feeding behavior.     

微卫星标记分析白斑狗鱼遗传多样性

为了解我国境内白斑狗鱼(Esox lucius)野生群体的遗传多样性现状,利用8对微卫星引物对额尔齐斯河流域185河段、635河段、乌伦古湖及吉力湖4个地理群体的遗传多样性进行了研究。结果显示,8个微卫星位点的平均等位基因数为6.625 0,多态信息含量为0.603 6～0.656 5,可有效用于白斑狗鱼遗传多样性和遗传结构分析。4个群体的平均期望杂合度为0.712 6～0.660 0,表明我国境内野生白斑狗鱼群体有较高的遗传多样性水平。整个群体的总近交系数为0.266 6,少数个体存在近交现象,白斑狗鱼群体有近交倾向。平均分化系数为0.062 2,群体间的遗传变异占总群体变异的6.22%,白斑狗鱼各群体间的分化程度不大。群体间的基因流值变化范围为10.077 5～3.360 6,说明白斑狗鱼不同群体间存在较为广泛的基因交流。     

Homogeneously sized groups increase aggressive interaction and affect social stress in Thai strain Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus)

Social fish raised in farms are usually kept in groups of similar-sized individuals. However, social animals of similar size typically have similar fighting ability, which increases aggressive interaction for social rank establishment, as well as social stress. We compared Thai strain Nile tilapia fish, Oreochromis niloticus (L.), held under two treatments: (1) The Homogeneous one, with five adult male fish of similar size and (2) the Heterogeneous treatment with five adult males of different sizes. We recorded the frequency of aggressive interactions and checked social stability and stress levels (cortisol) after five days in the groups. Grouping similar sized Thai Nile tilapia increased the aggressive interactions and delayed rank stability with increased body injuries as a consequence. Homogeneous-sized individuals showed a similar level of stress while heterogeneous-sized individuals showed different stress levels with dominants being more stressed than subordinates. The data indicate that the practice of selecting fish of similar size in aquaculture management could reduce the welfare of social fish and that the effect is observed in different lineages.     

The protective influence of ascorbic acid against the genotoxicity of waterborne lead exposure in Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus (L.)

The present study investigated the effects of lead (Pb) and ascorbic acid (AA) on Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus using the micronucleus (MN) and nuclear abnormality (NA) tests for periods of 7, 14 and 21 days. The MN frequencies in the erythrocytes, gill, liver and fin cells were analysed comparatively to evaluate the sensitivity and suitability of these different cell types. The NA shapes in erythrocytes were scored into blebbed nuclei (BL), lobed nuclei (LB), notched nuclei (NT) and binuclei (BN). It was observed that fish showed significant sensitivity to the different treatments. In general, the highest value of both MN and NA cells were significantly increased in the Pb-treated group followed by the combination of the Pb and AA-treated group. On the other hand, the MN and NA frequencies in erythrocytes were the most sensitive to the treatment and could provide more valuable information than those in gill, liver and fin cells. The frequencies of each NA shape in erythrocytes of all treatments were observed in the following ranked order NT > LB > BN > BL. The results demonstrated the efficacy of AA in reducing genotoxicity in fish induced by Pb. They showed the sensitivity and suitability of MN and NA frequencies in erythrocytes as pollution biomarkers.     

Isolation and Physical Mapping of Sex-Linked AFLP Markers in Nile Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus L.)

Gynogenetically produced XX and YY Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) and diploid control groups were screened for amplified fragment length polymorphisms (AFLPs) to search for sex-linked or sex-specific markers. Family-level bulked segregant analysis (XX and YY gynogenetic family pools) and individual screening (XX and YY gynogenetics and XX and XY control individuals) identified 3 Y-linked (OniY425, OniY382, OniY227) and one X-linked (OniX420) AFLP markers. OniX420 and OniY425 were shown to be allelic. Single locus polymerase chain reaction assays were developed for these markers. Tight linkage was demonstrated between the AFLP markers and the sex locus within the source families. However, these markers failed to consistently identify sex in unrelated individuals, indicating recombination between the markers and the sex-determining loci. O. niloticus bacterial artificial chromosome clones, containing the AFLP markers, hybridized to the long arm of chromosome 1. This confirmed previous evidence, based on meiotic chromosome pairing and fluorescence in situ hybridization probes obtained through chromosome microdissection, that chromosome pair 1 is the sex chromosomes.
