DNA fingerprinting, followed by multivariate analysis of data, was used to characterize genetic heterogeneity in captive populations of the endangered Siberian and sandhill cranes. The genetic structure revealed reflected the natural population and species distributions. The relevant groups differed not only from each other, but also from interspecies and inter-population hybrids bred in captivity. In this study we have tested an approach to the analysis of population structure based on individual genotypes. Interpretation of fingerprinting data by means of the analytical system applied here is a useful and reliable procedure for the estimation of genetic relationships between individuals. 相似文献

Genetic structure and mating system in the palila, an endangered Hawaiian honeycreeper, as assessed by DNA fingerprinting 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
We conducted DNA fingerprinting analyses to ascertain the mating system and population genetic structure of the palila, an endangered Hawaiian honeycreeper, which occupies a fragmented range on the Mauna Kea volcano of the island of Hawai'i. DNA fingerprinting of twelve complete families from the Pu'u La'au population revealed no evidence of extrapair fertilization or intraspecific brood parasitism. Band-sharing coefficients from fingerprints produced with two probes revealed that the large Pu'u La'au population on the southwest slope of Mauna Kea, and a smaller, geographically separate population on the east slope (at Kanakaleonui) had relatively high and virtually identical levels of minisatellite variability (mean S of 0.27 for each population based on combined data of M13 and Jeffreys 33.15 probes). The two populations also had nearly identical allele frequencies based on their mean corrected similarity, Sij , of 0.98. These data suggest that the two populations have not been fragmented long and/or have sufficient current gene flow to ameliorate any affects of genetic drift. We conclude that present levels of inbreeding are low within both populations, and that proposed translocations of individuals from Pu'u La'au to Kanakaleonui appear appropriate from a genetic standpoint. 相似文献

Recent development in molecular approaches allows access to genetic structure and diversity of indigenous microbial communities.
In contrast, the functional analysis of microorganisms in their environment is still hampered by methodological limitations.
Analysis of total proteins expressed at the whole community level (metaproteome) has been proposed to characterize the functional
structure of microbial communities in their environment. However, developments are still required to perform such analysis.
Our aim was to optimize methods to extract and characterize metaproteome of indigenous microbial communities. Experiments
were first conducted in monoxenic bacterial cultures, and various methods were examined to define a procedure of protein extraction
ensuring an efficient recovery regardless of the taxonomic affiliation of the cells. These developments were next applied
to characterize the metaproteome from indigenous bacterial communities in freshwater samples. Bacterial cells were recovered
from water using a high-speed density gradient centrifugation method before protein extraction and fingerprinting. The reactivity
and sensitivity of this metaproteomic approach were tested by analyzing the variations of protein fingerprints according to
perturbations (cadmium or mercury contamination). The genetic structure of the corresponding communities was also characterized
by automated ribosomal spacer analysis (ARISA) DNA fingerprinting. Both protein and DNA fingerprints were statistically analyzed.
Results obtained showed that the method developed for protein recovery and fingerprinting was efficient, sensitive, and reproducible.
Both the functional and genetic structures of the freshwater bacterial community were complex and varied with perturbations.
These variations occurred at both population and protein expression levels and were specific to the perturbation applied. 相似文献

Genetic similarity within pairs of individuals was examined using both 10 polymorphic microsatellite loci and multi-locus DNA fingerprinting profiles in a semi-isolated population of great reed warblers at Lake Kvismaren, south Central Sweden, in 1987-1993. The population was founded by a few individuals in 1978, followed by a gradual increase in numbers until 1988, since when the population has remained relatively stable with about 60 breeding birds. We have previously found that high genetic similarity between pair-mates in the population during the early part of the study period reduced egg hatching success, and hence reproductive success. The measures of pairwise genetic similarity, microsatellite allele sharing and DNA fingerprinting band sharing, were highly correlated with pedigree-based relatedness. Both microsatellite and DNA fingerprinting similarities between pair-mates declined significantly over the study period, and the pattern was most pronounced in the DNA fingerprinting data. Analyses restricted to the microsatellite data showed that the average annual microsatellite similarity between pairwise combinations of individuals, as well as individual homozygosity in males, declined significantly over the study period, and that several immigrants carrying novel alleles entered the population during the study. Hence, the temporal decline in genetic similarity of mates in the population is probably a consequence of increased immigration, facilitated by the recent expansion of the species in the region. These results suggest that the population has now recovered genetically, or is in the process of recovering, from a recent founder event. 相似文献

We investigated the genetic variability and population structure of the halophilic zooplankter Artemia urmiana from 15 different geographical locations of Lake Urmia using nucleotide sequences of COI (mtDNA cytochrome c oxidase subunit I) and genomic fingerprinting by ISSR-PCR (inter-simple sequence repeats). According to sequence data, A. urmiana exhibits a high level of haplotype diversity with a low level of nucleotide diversity. The haplotype spanning network recognized 36 closely related unique haplotypes. ISSR profiles confirmed a substantial amount of genomic diversity with a low level of population structure. No apparent genetic structure was recognized in Lake Urmia but rather a random geographic distribution of genotypes indicating a high degree of panmixia. The population genetic data indicate the possibility of an individual’s relationship, implying that differentiation of individuals is not affected by ecological factors. Therefore, the A. urmiana population from Lake Urmia should be considered as a single management unit for conservation. 相似文献

Estimation of genetic distance and coefficient of gene diversity from single-probe multilocus DNA fingerprinting data 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
DNA fingerprinting exhibits multilocus genotypes of individuals, detected
by the use of a single multilocus probe. Consequently, population data on
DNA fingerprinting do not provide a complete characterization of the
genetic variation in terms of allele-frequency distributions, since neither
the number of loci nor the locus affiliation of alleles is directly
observable. Yet DNA fingerprinting has been proved to be a cost-effective
method of detecting hypervariable polymorphisms in several organisms, where
the traditional loci fail to detect enough variation for microevolutionary
studies. In the present paper we demonstrate that the above-mentioned
features of DNA fingerprinting data do not cause any serious problem when
they are used in evolutionary studies. Bias-corrected estimators of Nei's
standard and minimum genetic distances are derived, and, by an application
of this theory to data on seven short tandem repeat loci in three major
human populations, it is shown that these modified measures of genetic
distances based on DNA fingerprint patterns are quite close to Nei's
distances based on locus-specific allele frequencies. Empirical as well as
theoretical support of the adequacy of such genetic distances from DNA
fingerprinting data is also discussed, and it indicates that the technical
limitations of DNA fingerprinting should not deter the use of the method
for short-term evolutionary studies.

Use of DNA fingerprinting for human population genetic studies 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

DNA fingerprinting techniques have been used in population genetic studies on many different kinds of organisms. Here, we present new applications for multilocus DNA fingerprint probes in population studies and demonstrate the applicability of DNA fingerprinting to human population genetics, using M13 phage DNA as a probe. The new approach, which is based on a factor method of numerical coding of non-quantitative data (factor correspondence analysis-FCA), shows good agreement between population position, as indicated by the three principal factors, and ethnogenetic proximity. 相似文献

Abstract: Rhizobium meliloti strain GR4, which exhibits a highly competitive ability for alfalfa root nodule occupancy, was used in a field release experiment in Granada, Spain. In order to analyze the ecological impact of the GR4 release, we characterized the R. meliloti indigenous population of the field site by ERIC-(enterobacterial repetitive intergenic consensus) PCR and IS (insertion sequence) fingerprinting. Both fingerprinting methods resulted in the same grouping of the isolates. Data obtained were compared with a previous analysis by plasmid based sequence-specific PCR. Isolates belonging to the major infective group, as defined by dominant plasmid types, were shown to have identical or nearly identical ERIC and IS fingerprint patterns. Hence, we conclude that all three typing methods are suited to characterize the genetic structure of the field population. The possible impact of the introduction of strain GR4 was examined two years after its release in its original environment. No effect on the genetic structure of the indigenous R. meliloti field population was observed. 相似文献

Multilocus DNA fingerprinting and RAPD reveal similar genetic relationships between strains of Oreochromis niloticus (Pisces: Cichlidae) 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Two molecular techniques which reveal highly variable DNA polymorphisms, RAPD and multilocus DNA fingerprinting, were used to evaluate genetic diversity between six aquacultural strains of Oreochromis niloticus (tilapia) from the Philippines. The results using both techniques were in close agreement Within-strain heterozygosity values were similar and were correlated between the two data sets, but statistical errors associated with the RAPD data set were lower. Although genetic distances between strains were greater using DNA fingerprinting, the distances measured using both methods were significantly correlated. Both methods were useful in estimating variation between strains, but they offered different advantages. RAPD was technically easier to perform and produced results with low statistical error, whereas DNA fingerprinting detected greater genetic differentiation between strains. The theoretical basis for using RAPD and multilocus minisatellite markers for population studies is discussed. 相似文献

Genetic variability and population structure of Sapindus trifoliatus L. (Sapindaceae), collected from Gujarat, Karnataka and Uttar Pradesh states were estimated using three DNA fingerprinting methods viz., random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD), directed amplification of minisatellite DNA (DAMD) and inter-simple sequence repeats (ISSR). The cumulative data analysis carried out for all three markers showed 69.42 % polymorphism. The intra-population genetic diversity analysis revealed the highest values of Nei’s genetic diversity (0.16), Shannon information index (0.24) and polymorphic loci (43.99 %) among Bhavnagar (BH) population, whereas lowest values were found in Junagarh (JU) population. The maximum inter-population average genetic distance (0.20) was between Allahabad (AL) and JU populations. Analysis of molecular variance (AMOVA) showed highest percentage of variation among individuals of populations (56 %) followed by 25 % among populations and 19 % among regions. Principal coordinate analysis and UPGMA dendrogram revealed that genetic diversity was in congruence with the geographical diversity. The data strongly suggest that low genetic flow, geographic isolation and to some extent genetic drift are the major factors responsible for high genetic differentiation. Preservation of genetic diversity of S. trifoliatus is important, both to promote adaptability of the populations to changing environment as well as to preserve a large gene pool for future genetic improvement. The present study using RAPD, DAMD and ISSR profiles of S. trifoliatus provide the means of rapid characterization of accessions within the populations, and thus enable the selection of appropriate accessions for further utilization in conservation and prospection programs of this important plant genetic resource. 相似文献

? Premise of the study: Microsatellite markers were isolated and characterized from the genome of Momordica charantia (bitter melon) to be applied in studies of genetic diversity and population structure. ? Methods and Results: Twenty-five microsatellite loci were isolated from the genome of bitter melon using the Fast Isolation by AFLP of Sequences COntaining Repeats (FIASCO) method. Ten loci were polymorphic, and the number of alleles per locus ranged from three to seven, with the observed heterozygosity ranging from 0.46 to 0.65. The markers also amplified successfully in the related species M. cochinchinensis and Cucurbita pepo. ? Conclusions: These markers will have potential utility for applications in genetic diversity evaluation, molecular fingerprinting, identification, comparative genomics analysis, and genetic mapping in Momordica species, as well as in C. pepo. 相似文献

To elucidate the colonization of freshwater fish into Norway following the last deglaciation of Europe 10 000 years ago, we have performed a survey using mitochondrial DNA variation (20 populations) and multilocus DNA fingerprinting (14 populations) of the widely distributed perch ( Perca fluviatilis ) from the Scandinavian peninsula and the Baltic Sea. Sequence analysis of a 378 bp segment of the perch mitochondrial control region (D-loop) revealed 12 different haplotypes. A nested clade analysis was performed with the aim of separating population structure and population history. This analysis revealed strong geographical structuring of the Scandinavian perch populations. In addition, the level of genetic diversity was shown to differ considerably among the various populations as measured by the bandsharing values ( S -values) obtained from multilocus DNA fingerprinting, with intrapopulation S -values ranging from 0.19 in Sweden to 0.84 in the central part of Norway. Analysis of the intrapopulation S -values, with S -value as a function of lake surface area and region, showed that these differences were significant. The mitochondrial and DNA fingerprinting data both suggest that the perch colonized Norway via two routes: one from the south following the retreating glacier, and the other through Swedish river systems from the Baltic Sea area. Perch utilizing the southern route colonized the area surrounding Oslofjord and the lakes which shortly after deglaciation were close to the sea. Fish migrating from the Baltic Sea seem to have reached no further than the east side of Oslofjord, where they presumably mixed with perch which had entered via the southern route. It seems likely that the migration events leading to the current distribution of perch also apply to other species of freshwater fish showing a similar distribution pattern. 相似文献

In spite of the increasing application of DNA fingerprinting to natural
populations and to the genetic identification of humans, explicit methods
for estimation of basic population genetic parameters from DNA
fingerprinting data have not been developed. Contributing to this omission
is the inability to determine, for multilocus fingerprinting probes,
relatively important genetic information, such as the number of loci, the
number of alleles, and the distribution of these alleles into specific
loci. One of the most useful genetic parameters that could be derived from
such data would be the average heterozygosity, which has traditionally been
employed to measure the level of genetic variation within populations and
to compare genetic variation among different loci. We derive here explicit
formulas for both the estimation of average heterozygosity at multiple
hypervariable loci and a maximum value for this estimate. These estimates
are based upon the DNA restriction-pattern matrices that are typical for
fingerprinting studies of humans and natural populations. For several
empirical data sets from our laboratory, estimates of average and maximal
heterozygosity are shown to be relatively close to each other. Furthermore,
variances of these statistics based on simulation studies are relatively
small. These observations, as well as consideration of the effect of
missing alleles and alternate numbers of loci, suggest that the average
heterozygosity can be accurately estimated using phenotypic DNA fingerprint
patterns, because this parameter is relatively insensitive to the lack of
certain genetic information.

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Nouelia insignis Franch., a monotypic genus of the Asteraceae, is an endangered species endemic in Yunnan and Sichuan Provinces of China. Most of the populations are seriously threatened. Some of them are even at the brink of extinction. In this study, the genetic diversity and differentiation between populations of this species were examined in two drainage areas. METHODS: DNA fingerprinting based on inter-simple sequence repeat polymorphisms was employed to detect the genetic variation and population structure in the species. KEY RESULTS: Genetic diversity at species level was high with P=65.05% (percentage of polymorphic loci) and Ht=0.2248 (total genetic diversity). The coefficient of genetic differentiation among populations, Gst, which was estimated by partitioning the total gene diversity, was 0.2529; whereas, the genetic differentiation between populations in the Jinsha and Nanpan drainage areas was unexpectedly low (Gst=0.0702). CONCLUSIONS: Based on the genetic analyses of the DNA fingerprinting, recent habitat fragmentation may not have led to genetic differentiation or the loss of genetic diversity in the rare species. Spatial apportionment of fingerprinting polymorphisms provides a footprint of historical migration across geographical barriers. The high diversity detected in this study holds promise for conservation and restoration efforts to save the endangered species from extinction. 相似文献

Phytophthora foot rot of black pepper caused by Phytophthora capsici is a major disease of black pepper (Piper nigrum) throughout Vietnam. To understand the population structure of P. capsici, a large collection of P. capsici isolates from black pepper was studied on the basis of mating type, random amplified microsatellites (RAMS) and repetitive extragenic palindromic (REP) fingerprinting. Two mating types A1 and A2 were detected in four provinces in two climatic regions, with A1:A2 ratios ranging from 1:3 to 1:5. In several instances A1 and A2 mating types were found to co-exist in the same farm or black pepper pole, suggesting the potential for sexual reproduction of P. capsici in the field in Vietnam although its contribution to disease epidemics is uncertain. RAMS and REP DNA fingerprinting analysis of 118 isolates of P. capsici from black pepper showed that the population was genetically more diverse where two mating types were found, although the overall genetic diversity was low with most of the isolates belonging to one clonal group. The implication of these findings is discussed. The low diversity among isolates suggests that the P. capsici population may have originated from a single source. There was no genetic differentiation of isolates from different climatic regions. In addition to the large clonal group, several isolates with unique RAMS/REP phenotypes were also detected. Most of these unique phenotypes belonged to the minority A1 mating type. This may have significant implications for a gradual increase in overall genetic diversity. 相似文献

Recent development of DNA markers provides powerful tools for population genetic analyses. Amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) markers result from a polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based DNA fingerprinting technique that can detect multiple restriction fragments in a single polyacrylamide gel, and thus are potentially useful for population genetic studies. Because AFLP markers have to be analysed as dominant loci in order to estimate population genetic diversity and genetic structure parameters, one must assume that dominant (amplified) alleles are identical in state, recessive (unamplified) alleles are identical in state, AFLP fragments segregate according to Mendelian expectations and that the genotypes of an AFLP locus are in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE). The HWE assumption is untestable for natural populations using dominant markers. Restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) markers segregate as codominant alleles, and can therefore be used to test the HWE assumption that is critical for analysing AFLP data. This study examined whether the dominant AFLP markers could provide accurate estimates of genetic variability for the Aedes aegypti mosquito populations of Trinidad, West Indies, by comparing genetic structure parameters using AFLP and RFLP markers. For AFLP markers, we tested a total of five primer combinations and scored 137 putative loci. For RFLP, we examined a total of eight mapped markers that provide a broad coverage of mosquito genome. The estimated average heterozygosity with AFLP markers was similar among the populations (0.39), and the observed average heterozygosity with RFLP markers varied from 0.44 to 0.58. The average FST (standardized among-population genetic variance) estimates were 0.033 for AFLP and 0.063 for RFLP markers. The genotypes at several RFLP loci were not in HWE, suggesting that the assumption critical for analysing AFLP data was invalid for some loci of the mosquito populations in Trinidad. Therefore, the results suggest that, compared with dominant molecular markers, codominant DNA markers provide better estimates of population genetic variability, and offer more statistical power for detecting population genetic structure. 相似文献

The inference of population genetic structures is essential in many research areas in population genetics, conservation biology and evolutionary biology. Recently, unsupervised Bayesian clustering algorithms have been developed to detect a hidden population structure from genotypic data, assuming among others that individuals taken from the population are unrelated. Under this assumption, markers in a sample taken from a subpopulation can be considered to be in Hardy-Weinberg and linkage equilibrium. However, close relatives might be sampled from the same subpopulation, and consequently, might cause Hardy-Weinberg and linkage disequilibrium and thus bias a population genetic structure analysis. In this study, we used simulated and real data to investigate the impact of close relatives in a sample on Bayesian population structure analysis. We also showed that, when close relatives were identified by a pedigree reconstruction approach and removed, the accuracy of a population genetic structure analysis can be greatly improved. The results indicate that unsupervised Bayesian clustering algorithms cannot be used blindly to detect genetic structure in a sample with closely related individuals. Rather, when closely related individuals are suspected to be frequent in a sample, these individuals should be first identified and removed before conducting a population structure analysis. 相似文献

Habitat fragmentation is becoming increasingly common, yet, the effect of habitat spatial structure on population dynamics
remains undetermined for most species. Populations of a single species found in fragmented and nonfragmented habitat present
a rare opportunity to examine the effect of habitat spatial structure on population dynamics. This study investigates the
impact of highly fragmented habitat on dispersal patterns, mating behavior, and genetic variation in a pika (Ochotona princeps) population with a mainland-island spatial structure. Juvenile dispersal patterns in fragmented habitat revealed that individuals
tended to disperse to neighboring habitat patches. However, within-patch band-sharing scores from multilocus DNA fingerprints
did not differ from what would be expected if individuals were assorting randomly among habitat patches each year. Multiple,
short-distance dispersal targets for juveniles and occasional long-distance dispersal events suggest that habitat fragmentation
on this scale has not resulted in restricted dispersal and a genetically subdivided population. Although pikas tended to mate
with the closest available partner, DNA fingerprinting band-sharing scores between mated pairs were consistent with a random
mating hypothesis. Random mating in this population appears to be an incidental effect of dispersal in a fragmented habitat.
This pattern is distinct from that found in nonfragmented habitat (large talus patches) where mating was non-random and consistent
with mating between individuals of intermediate relatedness. DNA fingerprinting data revealed within-species variation in
the mating habits of the pika directly attributable to habitat spatial structure.
