Microsatellite-containing regions were isolated and characterized in Przewalskia tangutica Maxim (Solanaceae), an endemic and endangered species to the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau of China. An enrichment protocol yielded
200 positive clones. We designed primers to amplify 29 unique microsatellites, 12 of which amplified cleanly and were polymorphic.
A survey of 17 individuals showed that these loci are highly variable with the number of alleles ranging from 3 to 12, and
expected heterozygosity ranged from 0.2929 to 0.4947. Those markers will be useful for studies of population structure and
intraspecific variation in P. tangutica. 相似文献

Juvenile noble crayfish, Astacus astacus and spiny-cheek crayfish, Orconectes limosus were reared from the 2nd and the 3rd developmental stage (i.e. since the stage of independence), respectively, until the
end of the growing season. The first period revealed very low survival rate of O. limosus in the communal stock (7 ± 6.2%), probably caused by predation of A. astacus. Separately reared O. limosus proved significantly higher survival rate (49 ± 9.2%) than those in the communal stock with A. astacus. The latter species also showed the highest survival rate in this case (90 ± 7.1%). This was not found to differ from the
survival rate of separately reared noble crayfish (86 ± 3.1%). In general, both the significant effect of bigger size of A. astacus than that of O. limosus and higher intra-specific cannibalism of O. limosus were reflected during the first phase of rearing. Size and weight of both species were equivalent 11 weeks after hatching
(8 weeks of rearing). The higher cumulative survival rate was reached in the intraspecific culture of A. astacus (90%) while low cumulative survival of both species was found in communal stock (less than 50%) in the second phase of rearing.
At the end of the growing season, 19-week-old O. limosus attained a higher mean size and weight but were more variable in the group (29.3 ± 5.17 mm and 616.4 ± 412.53 mg) than A. astacus (21.2 ± 1.82 mm and 229.9 ± 59.45 mg). Single and communal stock did not differ. Growth of O. limosus was much faster than that of A. astacus. 相似文献

The finless porpoise, Neophocaena phocaenoides, is endemic to the coastal waters of the Indo-Pacific, ranging from the Persian Gulf to Japan. Nine tetranucleotide microsatellite
loci were isolated from the finless porpoise (Neophocaena phocaenoides). Polymorphism of each locus was assessed in 39 unrelated individuals from the Yellow Sea and the South China Sea of the
Chinese waters. The number of alleles per locus varied from 2 to 11. The ranges of observed and expected heterozygosity were
0.154–0.795 and 0.146–0.839, respectively. Cross-species amplification of these loci was tested in other cetacean species.
These microsatellite markers described here will be suitable for population genetic studies of finless porpoises and other
cetacean species. 相似文献

Cupressus chenggiana S. Y. Hu (Cupressaceae) is an endemic and endangered conifer species in southwest China. In order to study the population
genetics and design the effective conservation methods, we aimed to develop microsatellite primers for this species in the
present study. We developed eight new microsatellite loci for this species through biotin capture method. Polymorphism of
each locus was further assessed in 18 individuals from three geographically distant populations. The number of alleles per
locus ranged from 6 to 11 with an average of 8.13. The observed and expected heterozygosities ranged from 0.219 to 0.296 and
from 0.374 to 0.470, with averages of 0.254 and 0.417, respectively. We further found that three of nine microsatellite loci
developed previously for another congeneric species showed polymorphic banding patters. We performed primer-crossing tests
of these loci in the other two congeneric species which are closely related to C. chenggiana (C. gigantea and C. duclouxiana). These microsatellite markers would be effective for analyzing genetic diversity and population genetic structure of this
species and its morphological differentiation with the close relatives. 相似文献

The flagfish (Jordanella floridae) is commonly used in studies of wetlands ecology. Here we describe the isolation of ten microsatellite loci, six of which
were polymorphic. The observed number of alleles ranged from 4 to 24 and observed heterozygosities ranged from 0.59 to 0.81
for the polymorphic loci. The isolation of these markers will enable estimations of genetic diversity in natural populations. 相似文献

Seven polymorphic nuclear microsatellite markers for Taxus baccata L. (English yew) were developed using an enriched-library method. An additional polymorphic SSR was obtained by testing eight
primer pairs from the congeneric species Taxus sumatrana. Mendelian inheritance for the seven Taxus baccata SSRs was proved by genotyping 17 individuals and 124 megagametophytes (conifer seed haploid tissue). A total of 96 individuals
from 5 different populations (10–26 samples per population) were used to estimate genetic diversity parameters. High levels
of genetic diversity, with values ranging from 0.533 to 0.929 (6–28 alleles per SSR) were found. No linkage disequilibrium
between pairs of loci was detected. All loci but one showed significant departures from Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium. Excess
of homozygosity was probably due to high inbreeding in English yew populations, an outcome of low effective population size
and/or fragmented distribution. Highly polymorphic SSRs will be used to conduct population genetic studies at different geographical
scales and to monitor gene flow. 相似文献

We developed 37 great gray owl (Strix nebulosa) microsatellite primers from CA and TAGA enriched genomic libraries. Primers were tested in 15 great gray owls from California,
USA and Alberta, Canada as well as two other Strix species, spotted owl (S. occidentalis) and barred owl (S. varia). These markers will have broad application in investigations of Strix population structure and genetic diversity. 相似文献

We developed 11 polymorphic microsatellite markers for an endangered shrub Ammopiptanthus mongolicus using the Fast Isolation by AFLP of Sequences Containing repeats protocol. Polymorphism of each locus was assessed in 24
individuals from five natural populations of A. mongolicus. The average allele number of these markers was 4.2, ranging from 2 to 7. The observed (H
O) and expected (H
E) heterozygosities were 0.044–0.956 and 0.044–0.827, respectively. Further assessment in the congeneric species A. nanus revealed that nine of eleven loci were successfully amplified, but only two loci showed polymorphism. These markers provide
powerful tools for the conservation genetics studies of A. mongolicus. 相似文献

Mutation techniques have been used for generating genetic variation and breeding new varieties during the past decades. However,
the skepticism has also persisted during the course on the sole mutational origin of genetic variation in mutated populations.
We addressed this issue using three unique rice genetic lines in this study. First, we confirmed that gamma rays had significant
effect on the growth of M1 plants, leading to significant reduction of fertility, seed set and plant height at doses 200 Gy and above. Second, we proved
that out-crossing derived genetic variants existed in M2 population (0.8%) and among selected putative mutants (0–33.3%), in addition to induced mutants. Third, we demonstrated that
true induced mutant lines had identical microsatellite haplotypes to their parents. We proposed microsatellite assay as a
method to exclude any genetic contaminants from induced mutants, with appropriate numbers for different levels of power based
on reported microsatellite mutation rate and microsatellite polymorphic index. 相似文献

Berchemiella wilsonii var. pubipetiolata (Rhamnaceae) is an endangered plant with only four remnant populations in eastern China. Population genetic information is
essential for understanding population history and formulating conservation strategies for this species. Thirteen microsatellite
loci were used to investigate genetic variation and population structure of the four remnant populations. Moderate levels
of expected heterozygosity (H
E = 0.466–0.543) and low allelic diversity (A = 3.1–3.6 and A
R = 2.2–2.4, respectively) were observed within populations. Bottleneck tests found three out of four populations to deviate
from mutation-drift equilibrium under the two-phase model (TPM), suggesting a recent population decline, which is congruent
with known demographic history. The evolutionary history of the species seems dominated by genetic drift rather than gene
flow. Low historical gene flow was inferred from several different approaches and N
m ranged from 0.582 by the private allele method to 0.783 by the coalescent method. Contemporary gene flow was also found to
be even lower for only one first generation migrant was detected with individual-based assignment analysis. Restricted pollen
and seed dispersal as well as a recent decline in population size associated with habitat fragmentation may have contributed
to low levels of historical and contemporary gene flow, and resulted in a high genetic differentiation. Under this scenario,
Berchemiella wilsonii var. pubipetiolata populations are expected to display more pronounced population genetic structure in the future as a result of increased inbreeding
and genetic drift. 相似文献

Ardisia crenata, an evergreen shrub native to East Asia, has been a serious invasive plant to the southeastern USA. Here 13 polymorphic microsatellite
loci were isolated and characterized from an enrichment genomic library of A. crenata. The average allele number of these microsatellites was four per locus, ranging from two to seven. The ranges of observed
and expected heterozygosity were 0.000–1.000 and 0.239–0.789, respectively. These microsatellite markers will be useful for
investigating population genetics and reproductive ecology of A. crenata. 相似文献

We describe 9 primers for amplification of microsatellite loci for the Neotropical tree Cedrela odorata L. (Meliaceae). Loci were isolated from an enriched library derived from a single DNA sample from a tree in Costa Rica. Levels
of polymorphism were determined using samples from a large progeny trial. Across loci, the number of alleles ranged from 14
to 30. Observed heterozygosity levels ranged from 0.61 to 0.88. No linkage disequilibria were detected although some departures
from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) were found, probably due to a Wahlund effect. 相似文献

Aspergillus section Nigri strains Aspergillus aculeatus Ege-K 258, A.
foeditus var. pallidus Ege-K156, A. niger Ege-K 4 and A. tubingensis Ege-K 265 were used to treat olive mill wastewater (OMW) in an investigation aimed at exploring their dephenolisation and
decolourisation ability and, consequently, the economic feasibility of using any or all of these strains in a pre-treatment
step in the processing of OMW. Of these strains A. tubingensis Ege-K 265 resulted in an 80% decolourisation of twofold-diluted OMW and a 30% decolourisation of undiluted OMW; in addition,
it was able to remove approximately 30% of all phenolic compounds in both twofold-diluted and undiluted OMW. We conclude that
A. tubingensis Ege-K 265 could be effectively used in the pre-treatment step of a combined aerobic-anaerobic process to solve the environmental
problems caused by OMW in Mediterranean countries. 相似文献

Eleven polymorphic microsatellite loci were characterized for the endangered conifer Taxus yunnanensis. Eight loci were isolated through SSR-anchored PCR, one locus was developed by cross-species amplification tests, while the
last two loci were obtained from cross-species microsatellite sequences available in GenBank. Variability of these markers
was tested in 48 individuals collected from its main distribution range in Southwest China. The number of alleles per locus
ranged from 2 to 9, and the observed and expected heterozygosity varied from 0.000 to 0.625 and from 0.062 to 0.853, respectively.
Ten of these eleven loci were significantly deviated from Hardy–Weinberg expectation, except TS07 which showed a distinct
heterozygote excess. The availability of these new polymorphic microsatellite markers will provide an ideal marker system
for detailed population genetics studies in T. yunnanensis and potentially also for closely related species. 相似文献

Epidendrum fulgens has a patchy distribution along the Atlantic Rainforest in the Brazilian coast, due to the destruction of its native habitat.
Here, we report on both the development of nine new microsatellite markers isolated from this species and the characterization
of their allele variability in two distant and unrelated populations. The number of alleles observed for each locus ranged
from 2 to 17 with an average of 6.4 alleles per locus. These microsatellites should be valuable tools for studying the effect
of habitat fragmentation on the genetic structure of E. fulgens populations. 相似文献

The razor clam (Sinonovacula constricta) is an important aquacultured bivalve in China. The natural populations of this species are decreasing quickly. To facilitate
studies on genetic diversity and population structure of wild populations, microsatellites were isolated from a CA enriched
genomic library. Eight microsatellite loci were polymorphic in 30 individuals from Chongming in Shanghai, China. The number
of alleles per polymorphic locus varied from 6 to 13 and the values of observed heterozygosity and expected heterozygosity
ranged from 0.350 to 1.000 and from 0.602 to 0.902, respectively. These microsatellites are being used in studying population
differentiation and genetic diversity for effective conservation and management genetic resources of S. constricta. 相似文献

Capsicum chinense is a recalcitrant species for in vitro morphogenesis, and up to date there is no efficient system for genetic transformation
and regeneration of this species via somatic embryogenesis. Here, we carried out an in vitro transformation of C. chinense via Agrobacterium tumefaciens co-cultivation with a system that expresses the heterologous gene WUSCHEL from Arabidopsis thaliana. WUSCHEL has been shown to promote the transition from vegetative to embryogenic state when overexpressed. We tested if the expression
of WUSCHEL in C. chinense would promote an embryogenic response in this species. After 15 days of induction, the segments of transformed stems begun
to form globular structures, suggesting that heterologus WUSCHEL was active and involved in the process of morphogenesis. 相似文献

Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer, commonly known as Korean or Asian ginseng, is a perennial herb native to Korea and China. Its roots are highly
prized for several medicinal properties. The present study describes development and characterization of twenty-two polymorphic
microsatellite markers for this species. A total of 99 alleles were detected with an average of 4.5 alleles per locus across
20 accessions. Values for observed (H
O
) and expected (H
E
) heterozygosities ranged from 0.05 to 1.00 and from 0.18 to 0.73, respectively. Eleven loci deviated from Hardy–Weinberg
equilibrium (P < 0.001). Significant (P < 0.05) heterozygote deficiency was observed at 13 loci. Exact test for linkage disequilibrium showed significant values
(P < 0.05) between 12 pairs of loci. These microsatellite markers provide powerful tools for understanding population and conservation
genetics of this species and also for genetic differentiation and authentication of different Panax species being used in commercial ginseng products. 相似文献
