中国湛江市和哈尔滨市褐家鼠种群遗传结构及其年度变化特征

为探索褐家鼠Rattus norvegicus地理种群的遗传结构及其年度变化特点,本研究以广东省湛江市的褐家鼠指名亚种和黑龙江省哈尔滨市的褐家鼠东北亚种为主要研究对象,结合我国及世界其他褐家鼠种群的D-loop序列分析这2个褐家鼠地理种群间D-loop序列的遗传分化情况及系统进化关系,重点分析2008—2015年褐家鼠湛江种群和哈尔滨种群D-loop单倍型的年度频率变化特点。结果表明,褐家鼠湛江种群和哈尔滨种群共有32种不同的单倍型,其中有11种单倍型是2个种群共有的,有4种单倍型仅在湛江种群中出现,有17种单倍型仅在哈尔滨种群中出现。褐家鼠湛江种群D-loop区的核苷酸多态性为0.005,有27个变异位点,单倍型多态性为0.695,褐家鼠哈尔滨种群D-loop区的核苷酸多态性比湛江种群略高,为0.008,有35个变异位点,单倍型多态性为 0.793。褐家鼠湛江种群和哈尔滨种群没有经历过暴发性的扩增。褐家鼠湛江、哈尔滨和湖北3个地理种群的D-loop序列之间发生了明显的遗传分化,其中湛江种群和哈尔滨种群之间的分化程度最高,遗传分化系数F_st为0.245。褐家鼠湛江种群和哈尔滨种群的单倍型数目和主单倍型频率都发生明显波动,推测主要原因可能是由于灭鼠剂的大量使用或其他灭鼠活动导致种群出现瓶颈或更替的现象。     

单倍型分析技术研究进展

单倍型是指共存于单条染色体上的一系列遗传变异位点的组合,每条染色体都有自己独特的单倍型。单倍型分析技术作为一种常用的数据分析方法,是寻找单染色体上杂合SNP变异位点的有效方法,也对挖掘致病基因、寻找疾病治疗新方法有重要作用。它主要包括间接推断法和直接实验法。文中介绍了各种单倍型分析方法及应用,尤其详细介绍了单分子稀释法和保留邻近性的转座酶测序法,同时对单倍型分析技术的应用前景进行了展望。     

入侵我国红火蚁的三种单倍型

红火蚁Solenopsis invicta Buren是重要的经济害虫,特别是在农业和生态系统危害方面。2004年底在广东和香港的部分地区发现红火蚁入侵。本文用线粒体细胞色素氧化酶Ⅰ（CO Ⅰ）基因对境内的13个种群进行了入侵蚁巢是否独立传入进行了分析。通过对共计28个蚁巢56个体的包含904个碱基的CO Ⅰ基因分析,发现入侵中国的红火蚁中存在3种单倍型。基于未修正的配对序列变异分析表明,单倍型Ⅱ与单倍型Ⅲ之间的变异最小。而香港种群同时具有这三种单倍型,是入侵中国的红火蚁种群中多样性最丰富的地区。这三种单倍型都分别在阿根廷红火蚁种群中有记录。同源性分析显示,中国的红火蚁可能起源于阿根廷或南美洲,而香港可能是所研究种群的第一入侵地点。     

基于线粒体COI基因序列的黄胫小车蝗不同地理种群的遗传分化及基因流分析

黄胫小车蝗Oedaleus infernalis Saussure是一种在我国分布广泛、 对农牧业生产危害严重的经济害虫。本文对黄胫小车蝗10个地理种群的线粒体COI基因序列进行测序和分析, 利用DnaSP 5.0和Arlequin 3.5.1.2软件对该蝗虫种群间的遗传多样性、 遗传分化程度、 基因流水平及分子变异进行了分析, 建立了单倍型贝叶斯系统发育进化树和单倍型网络图。结果表明： 在所分析的144个序列样本中, 共检测到21种单倍型, 其中1种单倍型为10个地理种群所共享。总群体的单倍型多样性指数为0.653, 各地理种群单倍型多样度范围在0.423~0.790之间。总群体和各种群的Tajima’s D检验结果皆不显著, 说明该种害虫在较近的历史上未经历群体扩张。总群体的遗传分化系数Gst为0.04436, 固定系数Fst为0.05255, 基因流Nm为9.01。AMOVA分子方差分析结果表明, 黄胫小车蝗的遗传分化主要来自种群内部, 种群间的遗传变异水平较低。各地理种群的遗传距离的大小与其地理距离间没有显著的相关性。贝叶斯系统发育进化树与单倍型网络图显示, 黄胫小车蝗各地理种群中的单倍型散布在不同的分布群中, 分布格局较为混杂, 未形成明显的系统地理结构。研究结果揭示, 黄胫小车蝗各种群间的基因交流并未受到地理距离的影响。     

利用线粒体DNA控制区序列分析细鳞鲑种群的遗传结构

细鳞鲑(Brachymystaxlenok)是我国重要的经济鱼类,由于过度捕捞、环境污染及其他因素的影响,其种群已处于濒危状态。研究细鳞鲑种群的遗传结构对于探讨这一物种的形成与演化及其有效保护等问题具有十分重要的意义。本文测定了我国东部水系的细鳞鲑7个种群71个个体的线粒体DNA控制区序列片段(835bp),发现43个变异位点,共计15个单倍型。AMOVA分析结果表明,不同的地理区域之间存在显著的遗传分化(63.55%),而区域内和种群内的遗传变异分别只有24.17%和12.28%。采用邻接法(NJ)构建分子系统树,结果表明,单倍型被分成3个与各自的地理区域相对应的族群,各地理区域之间没有共享的单倍型。细鳞鲑的这种独特的遗传结构与其进化历史(例如地理隔离造成基因流的长期中断)和生物学特性(例如有限的散布能力和基因交换能力)有密切的关系。根据上述研究结果,我们建议对这3个遗传分化显著的地理区域加以保护,并按照不同的水系来保护种群,避免不同区域的种群之间发生基因交流。

Toward a preliminary assessment of the diversity and origin of Cyprinid fish genus Carassius in Iran

Introduction of non-native fish species has been criticized as one of the major threats to freshwater ecosystems. During recent years, the cyprinid fish genus Carassius has been the subject of various studies in terms of introduction biology and ecology. The taxonomy and identification of described species in the genus Carassius is still ambiguous. In order to increase the knowledge of introduced species of the genus in Iran, molecular approaches were employed to identify species based on the mitochondrial gene, cytochrome b (Cyt b). In total, 417 specimens across Eurasia and some other parts of the world have been analyzed. Afterwards, investigation of the possible origin and pathways of introduction was done using analysis of haplotype networks based on the Cyt b gene. The results revealed that there are three introduced species i.e., Carassius auratus, Carassius gibelio and Carassius langsdorfii, in inland waters of Iran. Carassius langsdorfii was recorded from Iran and western Asia for the first time. Analysis of haplotype network showed various potential sources of introduction for each species in Iran and regions beyond their native distribution ranges.

Incomplete estimates of genetic diversity within species: Implications for DNA barcoding

DNA barcoding has greatly accelerated the pace of specimen identification to the species level, as well as species delineation. Whereas the application of DNA barcoding to the matching of unknown specimens to known species is straightforward, its use for species delimitation is more controversial, as species discovery hinges critically on present levels of haplotype diversity, as well as patterning of standing genetic variation that exists within and between species. Typical sample sizes for molecular biodiversity assessment using DNA barcodes range from 5 to 10 individuals per species. However, required levels that are necessary to fully gauge haplotype variation at the species level are presumed to be strongly taxon‐specific. Importantly, little attention has been paid to determining appropriate specimen sample sizes that are necessary to reveal the majority of intraspecific haplotype variation within any one species. In this paper, we present a brief outline of the current literature and methods on intraspecific sample size estimation for the assessment of COI DNA barcode haplotype sampling completeness. The importance of adequate sample sizes for studies of molecular biodiversity is stressed, with application to a variety of metazoan taxa, through reviewing foundational statistical and population genetic models, with specific application to ray‐finned fishes (Chordata: Actinopterygii). Finally, promising avenues for further research in this area are highlighted.     

菌物分类学研究中常见的物种概念

物种是生物多样性与分类学研究的基本单元, 物种识别是生物学研究的基本问题之一。物种的划分一直以来都没有一个明确统一的标准, 这使得分类学多少带有主观的色彩, 并经常被看作艺术而不完全是科学的研究。本文简要概述了菌物分类学研究中常见的3个物种概念, 即形态学种、生物学种和系统发育学种的背景和应用现状, 并通过实例讨论了这3个物种概念的特点及应用中存在的问题, 特别是各个物种概念之间的交错, 以期为菌物分类学研究和物种概念探讨提供参考。     

The Bemisia tabaci species complex： Additions from different parts of the world

Bemisia tabaci is one of the most threatening pests in many crops. We sequenced part of the mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase I gene from fifty whitefly populations collected in Indonesia, Thailand, India and China. Nineteen unique sequences （haplotypes） of the cytochrome oxidase I were identified in these populations. They were combined with sequences available in databases, resulting in a total of 407 haplotypes and analyzed together with nine outgroup accessions. A phylogenetic tree was calculated using the maximum likelihood method. The tree showed that all groups that were found in previous studies were also present in our study. Additionally, seven new groups were identified based on the new haplotypes. Most B. tabaci haplotypes grouped based on their geographical origin. Two groups were found to have a worldwide distribution. Our results indicate that our knowledge on the species complex around B. tabaci is still far from complete.     

Haplotype mining panel for genetic dissection and breeding in Eucalyptus

To improve our understanding of genetic mechanisms underlying complex traits in plants, a comprehensive analysis of gene variants is required. Eucalyptus is an important forest plantation genus that is highly outbred. Trait dissection and molecular breeding in eucalypts currently relies on biallelic single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers. These markers fail to capture the large amount of haplotype diversity in these species, and thus multi-allelic markers are required. We aimed to develop a gene-based haplotype mining panel for Eucalyptus species. We generated 17 999 oligonucleotide probe sets for targeted sequencing of selected regions of 6293 genes implicated in growth and wood properties, pest and disease resistance, and abiotic stress responses. We identified and phased 195 834 SNPs using a read-based phasing approach to reveal SNP-based haplotypes. A total of 8915 target regions (at 4637 gene loci) passed tests for Mendelian inheritance. We evaluated the haplotype panel in four Eucalyptus species (E. grandis, E. urophylla, E. dunnii and E. nitens) to determine its ability to capture diversity across eucalypt species. This revealed an average of 3.13–4.52 haplotypes per target region in each species, and 33.36% of the identified haplotypes were shared by at least two species. This haplotype mining panel will enable the analysis of haplotype diversity within and between species, and provide multi-allelic markers that can be used for genome-wide association studies and gene-based breeding approaches.     

Y-Chromosome Haplotypes in the Greek–Turkish Area

Various populations have contributed to the present-day gene pool in oriental Mediterranean (Aegean Sea) and are well documented for ancient history. The primary objective of the study is to report on the analysis of the paternal component of the variation (Y chromosome haplotypes) in contemporary populations in Greece, Crete, Turkey and Cyprus. A total of 245 males who hailed from five different locations in Turkey, Greece, and the islands of Crete and Cyprus were analyzed for Y-chromosome-specific haplotypes based on p49a,f TaqI polymorphism. The main haplotype observed (21.2%) in the Greek–Turkish area is haplotype VII. The second haplotype in terms of frequency (13.5%) is haplotype VIII, which is characteristic of Semitic populations. The third (11.4%), fourth (6.9%) and fifth (5.7%) haplotypes in frequency are haplotype XI (a typical eastern European haplotype), haplotype V (the North African haplotype) and haplotype XV (the Western European haplotype), respectively. The distribution of haplotype VII is significantly heterogeneous genetically among the five localities studied, with a peak of frequency (43.8%) in Crete. It is proposed that haplotype VII reflects the ancient Minoan civilization. Haplotype VII frequencies actually known are mapped in countries surrounding the Mediterranean Sea.     

Linked vs unlinked markers: multilocus microsatellite haplotype-sharing as a tool to estimate gene flow and introgression

We have explored the use of multilocus microsatellite haplotypes to study introgression from cultivated (Malus domestica) into wild apple (Malus sylvestris), and to study gene flow among remnant populations of M. sylvestris. A haplotype consisted of alleles at microsatellite loci along one chromosome. As destruction of haplotypes through recombination occurs much faster than loss of alleles due to genetic drift, the lifespan of a multilocus haplotype is much shorter than that of the underlying alleles. When different populations share the same haplotype, this may indicate recent gene flow between populations. Similarly, haplotypes shared between two species would be a strong signal for introgression. As the expected lifespan of a haplotype depends on the strength of the linkage, the length [in centiMorgans (cM)] of the haplotype shared contains information on the number of generations passed. This application of shared haplotypes is distinct from using haplotype-sharing to detect association between markers and a certain trait. We inferred haplotypes for four to eight microsatellite loci on Linkage Group 10 of apple from genotype data using the program phase, and then identified those haplotypes shared between populations and species. Compared with a Bayesian analysis of unlinked microsatellite loci using the program structure, haplotype-sharing detected a partially different set of putative hybrids. Cultivated haplotypes present in M. sylvestris were short (< 1.5 cM), indicating that introgression had taken place many generations ago, except for two Belgian plants that contained a haplotype of 47.1 cM, indicating recent introgression. In the estimation of gene flow, F(ST) based on unlinked loci indicated small (0.032-0.058) but statistically significant differentiation between some populations only. However, various M. sylvestris haplotypes were shared in nearly all pairwise comparisons of populations, and their length indicated recent gene flow. Hence, all Dutch populations should be considered as one conservation unit. The added value of using sharing of multilocus microsatellite haplotypes as a source of population genetic information is discussed.
