The mouse plasminogen (Plg) locus maps to a region of chromosome (Chr) 17 which is inverted in the t haplotype Chromosomal variant. Here we investigate the genomic organization of the Plg locus in structurally variant forms of Chr 17; wild-type (+), t haplotype (t), and two partial t haplotypes Tt
Orland t
Lub2which arose by recombination between + and t chromosomes. Our analysis suggests that the t haplotype chromosomal variant contains extra, inverted copies of the Plg locus, and that a single locus is present in the wild-type variant. Changes in the Plg locus in Tt
Orland t
Lub2suggest that they arose by homologous recombination across elements in the Plg locus having the same orientation in the wild-type and t haplotype chromosomes. One hundred ten kb around the wild-type Plg genomic locus have been cloned and the proximal breakpoint of a deletion in the t
Lub2chromosome has been localized to a fragment 30 kb downstream of the Plg gene. The t
Lub2deletion has been shown to delete a gene named t
w73that affects blastocyst implantation, a process probably requiring proteases such as plasminogen. However, the mapping of Plg relative to the t
Lub2deletion and mRNA analysis of plasminogen in t
w73heterozygotes suggests that Plg does not lie at the t
w73locus. 相似文献

A ring-Y chromosome, R(Y)w
m, of D. hydei is described which carries a complete set of fertility genes, a NOR region and a small X-chromosomal insertion (w
m), which may be used as a marker. The ring has been characterized by various staining techniques. It was derived from a w
mCo Y chromosome by X-ray treatment of spermatocytes. Its mode of origin allows to fix the gene order in the distal region of the long arm of the w
mCoY chromosome. The white
+ gene included in the ring shows a new type of position-effect variegation which is described and discussed in the context of an earlier hypothesis on a dual function of the white locus. 相似文献

Hybrid resistance of lethally irradiated (C57BL/6 × DBA/2)F1 and (C57BL/10 × C3H)F1 hybrid mice to the engraftment of parental C57BL/6 or C57BL/10 bone marrow cells is controlled by the H-2-linked Hh-1 locus. This resistance can be specifically blocked or inhibited by the injection of irradiated spleen cells from lethally irradiated, marrow reconstituted donor mice of certain strains. By testing the ability of regenerating spleen cells from various donor strains to block the resistance, we studied the genetic requirements for the expression of putative cell-surface structures recognized in hybrid resistance to H-2b marrow cells. Strains of mice bearing informative intra-H-2 or H-2/
Qa-Tla recombinant haplotypes provided evidence that the Hh-1 locus is located telomeric to the H-2S region complement loci and centromeric to the H-2D region class I locus in the H-2
b
chromosome. Two mutations that affect the class I H-2D
b
gene have no effect on Hh-1
b
gene expression. The H-2D region of the H-2
S
haplotype contains an allele of the Hh-1 locus indistinguishable from that of the H-2D
b
region, as judged by the phenotypes of relevant strains and F1 hybrids. Collectively these data indicate that the Hh-1 locus is distinct from the class I H-2D (L) locus in the H-2
b or H-2
s
genome, and favor the view that the expression or recognition of the relevant determinants is not associated with class I gene products.Abbreviations used in this paper BM(C)

A human DNA probe specific for the superoxide dismutase gene was used to identify the corresponding mouse gene. Under the chosen hybridizing conditions, the probe detected DNA fragments most likely carrying the mouse Sod-2 gene. Mapping studies revealed that the Sod-2 gene resides in the proximal inversion of the t complex on mouse chromosome 17. All complete t haplotypes tested showed restriction fragment length polymorphism which is distinct from that found in all wild-type chromosomes tested. The Sod-2 locus maps in the same region as some of the loci that influence segregation of t chromosomes in male gametes. The possibility that the Sod-2 locus is related to some of the t-complex distorter or responder loci is discussed. The data indicate that the human homolog of the mouse t complex has split into two regions, the distal region remaining on the p arm of human chromosome 6, while the proximal region has been transposed to the telomeric region of this chromosome's q arm. 相似文献

Resistance to coffee leaf rust is conferred by SH3, a major dominant gene that has been introgressed from a wild coffee species Coffea liberica (genome L) into the allotetraploid cultivated species, Coffea arabica (genome CaEa). As the first step toward the map-based cloning of the SH3 gene, using a bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) library, we describe the construction of a physical map in C. arabica spanning the resistance locus. This physical map consists in two homeologous BAC-contigs of 1,170 and 1,208 kb corresponding
to the subgenomes Ca and Ea, respectively. Genetic analysis was performed using a single nucleotide polymorphism detection assay based on Sanger sequencing
of amplicons. The C. liberica-derived chromosome segment that carries the SH3 resistance gene appeared to be introgressed on the sub-genome Ca. The position of the SH3 locus was delimited within an interval of 550 kb on the physical map. In addition, our results indicated a sixfold reduction
in recombination frequency in the introgressed SH3 region compared to the orthologous region in Coffea canephora. 相似文献

Transmission ratio distortion (TRD) of mouse t haplotypes occurs through the interaction of multiple distorter loci with the t complex responder (Tcr) locus. Males heterozygous for a t haplotype will transmit the t-bearing chromosome to nearly all of their offspring. This process is mediated by the production of functionally inequivalent gametes: wildtype meiotic partners of t spermatozoa are rendered functionally inactive. The Tcr locus, which is required for TRD to occur, is thought to somehow protect its host spermatid from the sperm-inactivating effects of linked distorter genes (Lyon 1984). In previous work, Tcr was mapped to a small genetic interval in t haplotypes, and a candidate gene from this region was isolated (Tcp-10b
t). In this work, we further localize Tcr to a 40-kb region that contains the 21-kb Tcp-10b
t gene. A cloned genomic copy of Tcp-10b
t was used to generate transgenic mice. The transgene was bred into a variety of genetic backgrounds to test for non-Mendelian segregation. Abberrant segregation was observed in some mice carrying either a complete t haplotype or a combination of certain partial t haplotypes. These observations, coupled with those of Snyder and colleagues (in this issue), provide genetic and functional evidence that the Tcp-10b
t gene is Tcr. However, other genotypes that were predicted to produce distortion did not. The unexpected data from a variety of crosses in this work and those of our colleagues suggest that elements to the TRD system and the Tcr locus remain to be identified. 相似文献

According to classical genetic studies, piebaldism in cattle is largely influenced by the allelic series at the spotting locus (S), which includes the SH (Hereford pattern), S+ (non‐spotted) and s (spotted) alleles. The S locus was mapped on bovine chromosome 6 in the region containing the KIT gene. We investigated the KIT gene, analysing its variability and haplotype distribution in cattle of three breeds (Angus, Hereford and Holstein) with different putative alleles (S+, SH and s respectively) at the S locus. Resequencing of a whole of 0.485 Mb revealed 111 polymorphisms. The global nucleotide diversity was 0.087%. Tajima’s D‐values were negative for all breeds, indicating putative directional selection. Of the 28 inferred haplotypes, only five were observed in the Hereford breed, in which one was the most frequent. Coalescent simulation showed that it is highly unlikely (P < 10E‐6) to obtain this low number of haplotypes conditionally on the observed number of segregating SNPs. Therefore, the neutral model could be rejected for the Hereford breed, suggesting that a selection sweep occurred at the KIT locus. Twelve haplotypes were inferred in Holstein and Angus. For these two breeds, the neutral model could not be rejected. High heterogeneity of the KIT gene was confirmed from a phylogenetic analysis. Our results suggest a role of the KIT gene in determining the SH allele(s) in the Hereford, but no evidence of selective sweep was obtained in Holstein, suggesting that complex mechanisms (or other genes) might be the cause of the spotted phenotype in this breed. 相似文献

Transmission ratio distortion (TRD) is a property of complete t haplotypes which results in the preferential transmission of the t haplotype chromosome from heterozygous t/+ males to the majority of the offspring. A candidate gene for one of the primary genetic elements in TRD, the t complex responder locus has recently been suggested to be Tcp-10b
t. There are multiple, functional Tcp-10
t genes, but genetic data suggest the presence of the Tcp-10a
t gene alone is compatible with normal transmission ratios. Here we present the complete sequence and genomic structure of the Tcp-10a
t gene which is compared with sequence data from a number of cDNAs and genomic subclones representing all active Tcp-10
t family genes. A detailed table of all sequence variants discovered in the course of our investigation is presented, and we have clarified the extent of 5 untranslated alternative splicing patterns exhibited by this gene family. A 60 base pair (bp) in-frame deletion from the 5 end of exon 3 of the Tcp-10a
t gene is also presented and compared with the equivalent region of Tcp-10b
t and Tcp-10c
t. A search of the University of Edinburgh database has revealed a significant homology between the Tcp-10b
t open reading frame and several cytosolic filament proteins. Interestingly, the region of homology is involved in the deletion from the Tcp-10a
t gene. 相似文献

Sex ratio in the Trinidad (T-30) strain of Aedes aegypti has remained constant at around 43% during seventeen years of laboratory culture. The divergence from 50% is due to meiotic drive by the M
D gene on the Y chromosome. The driving Y chromosome gives a much more distorted sex ratio (mean = 5.7%) when coupled with the highly sensitive X chromosomes from strain 64. This was demonstrated in all of 98 families tested, indicating that all or most of the Y chromosomes in T-30 carry the M
D gene. Consequently the low level of sex ratio distortion in T-30 must be due to resistance to M
D.Crosses made within T-30 demonstrated wide differences in sex ratio between families, depending on the sensitivity of the male parent's X chromosome to M
D. However, sex ratios were not continuously variable but fell within fairly discrete categories. Thus, X chromosomes could be classified according to the modal sex ratios associated with them: m
s3 (12.5%), m
s2 (32.5%), m
s1 (40%), m
r1 (47.5%) m
r2 (57.5%).The different sex ratio categories were more discrete in the families of sib matings than from random matings, suggesting the possibility of background modification of what is essentially a balanced polymorphism. Evidence is presented suggesting that the polymorphism could be due to interaction at two loci. A further X variant, m
s4 (<10%) characterised strain 64 but was absent from T-30.A comparison of fertility between the different sex ratio categories in T-30 established that sex ratio distortion was not caused by differential mortality after fertilisation. 相似文献

Chromosomes and phenotypes of four different sex-linkedwhite-mottled mutants of the position-effect variogation type were studied. Three mutants (w
m1,w
m2,w
m3) are X-chromosomal rearrangements which shift the w+ locus into a position close to heterochromatin, but which have different ouchromatic and heterochromatic breaks. The fourth, a spontaneous derivative ofw
m1, is an insertional duplication of part of the X chromosome, including thew
+ andN
+loci. The duplicated segment is inserted into the distal part of the long arm of the heterochromatic Y chromosome. It is designated,w
m
CoY, orXw
m
Co when transferred to the X chromosome.Three chromosomal types (w
m1,w
m
CoY) and (Xw
m
Co) having the same cuchromatic break near thew
+ locus, cause large-spotted eyes whereas two others (w
m2,w
m3) produce a popper-and-salt type of mottling. From the position of the various eu- and heterochromatic breaks, it appears that the distance of thew
+ locus to the point of reunion with heterochromatin, rather than the amount or type of adjoining heterochromatin, dietates the phenotypic action of the displacedw
+ locus, in the sense of a spreading effect on two proposed functional subunits within thew
+ locus.The pigmentation background against which the mottling effect is produced, i.e., a givenw-allele with its characteristic colour, or other eye colour mutations, does not seem to affect the type of mottling. Drosopterins and ommochromes react in the same way to modifing factors like temperature and supernumerary Y chromosomes. Two mutants (w
m2 andw
m
CoY) while reacting in the same manner to Y chromosomes showed an opposite temperature response.By exchange between the heterochromatin of the Y and X chromosome inw/w
m
CoY males thew
m
Co duplication was transferred between the sex chromosomes with a certain regularity. It is not yet known wether the exchanges are mitotic or meiotic in origin but their heterochromatic nature has been demonstrated cytologically. 相似文献

The Pik
m
gene in rice confers a high and stable resistance to many isolates of Magnaporthe oryzae collected from southern China. This gene locus was roughly mapped to the long arm of rice chromosome 11 with restriction
fragment length polymorphic (RFLP) markers in the previous study. To effectively utilize the resistance, a linkage analysis
was performed in a mapping population consisting of 659 highly susceptible plants collected from four F2 populations using the publicly available simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers. The result showed that the locus was linked
to the six SSR markers and defined by RM254 and RM144 with ≈13.4 and ≈1.2 cM, respectively. To fine map this locus, additional
10 PCR-based markers were developed in a region flanked by RM254 and RM144 through bioinformatics analysis (BIA) using the
reference sequence of cv. Nipponbare. The linkage analysis with these 10 markers showed that the locus was further delimited
to a 0.3-cM region flanked by K34 and K10, in which three markers, K27, K28, and K33, completely co-segregated with the locus.
To physically map the locus, the Pik
m
-linked markers were anchored to bacterial artificial chromosome clones of the reference cv. Nipponbare by BIA. A physical
map spanning ≈278 kb in length was constructed by alignment of sequences of the clones anchored by BIA, in which only six
candidate genes having the R gene conserved structure, protein kinase, were further identified in an 84-kb segment. 相似文献

Mapping salt-tolerance genes in tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) using trait-based marker analysis 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The germination responsiveness of an F2 population derived from the cross Lycopersicon esculentum (UCT5) x L. pennellii (LA716) was evaluated for salt tolerance at two stress levels, 150 mM NaCl + 15 mM CaCl2 and 200 mM NaCl + 20 mM CaCl2. Individuals were selected at both tails of the response distribution. The salt-tolerant and salt-sensitive individuals were genotyped at 16 isozyme loci located on 9 of the 12 tomato chromosomes. In addition, an unselected (control) F2 population was genotyped at the same marker loci, and gene frequencies were estimated in both selected and unselected populations. Trait-based marker analysis was effective in identifying genomic locations (quantitative trait loci, QTLs) affecting salt tolerance in the tomato. Three genomic locations marked by Est-3 on chromosome 1, Prx-7 on chromosome 3, and 6Pgdh-2 and Pgi-1 on chromosome 12 showed significant positive effects, while 2 locations associated with Got-2 on chromosome 7 and Aps-2 on chromosome 8 showed significant negative effects. The identification of genomic locations with both positive and negative effects on this trait suggests the likelihood of recovering transgressive segregants in progeny derived from these parental lines. Similar genomic locations were identified when selection was made either for salt tolerance or salt sensitivity and at both salt-stress treatments. Comparable results were obtained in uni- and bidirectional selection experiments. However, when marker allele gene frequencies in a control population are unknown, bidirectional selection may be more efficient than unidirectional selection in identifying marker-QTL associations. Results from this study are discussed in relationship to the use of molecular markers in developing salt-tolerant tomatoes. 相似文献

Morphology of the Drosophila melanogasterpolytene X chromosome section 20 in normal flies, in strains carrying inversions that break pericentric heterochromatin at different points, and at the background of the Su(UR)ESmutation has been examined. In all of the strains carrying the Su(UR)ESmutation section 20 displayed a distinct banding pattern till to the section 20F, while in the wild-type strains this region was represented by -heterochromatin. The strains carrying different inversions substantially differed in the number and morphology of bands forming section 20. In the Su(UR)ESmutants the most proximal X chromosome euchromatic gene,su(f), is mapped to the boundary between sections 20E and F, while rDNA forming the middle part of the X chromosome mitotic heterochromatin is located in the proximal part of section 20. All large bands observed in section 20 of the w; Su(UR)ESstrain were also present inIn(1)sc
4; Su(UR)ES, which breaks heterochromatin in the distal part. Hence, the bands of polytene chromosome section 20 are virtually devoid of mitotic heterochromatin. 相似文献

Males carrying, inserted on their Y chromosome, a small fragment of X including the w
+ (and N
+) locus (white-mottled Confluens, w
m
Co), were crossed with the purpose of scoring exceptional progeny. Some of the male and female exceptions were progeny tested and further analysed. Among the various mechanisms which may lead to exceptional offspring, X-Y exchanges proved to occur with a not negligible frequency. The rate was 3%. Nondisjunction accounts for the bulk of the remaining exceptions and appears to be increased considerably in the presence of rearrangements on one or the other of the sex chromosomes.The w
m
Co fragment after having been switched from Y to X by some mechanism other than regular crossing over, may become retransferred to a normal Y chromosome, but at a rate below 3%. 相似文献

The Adh and αGpdh allozyme loci (both located on the second chromosome) showed considerable fluctuations in allele frequencies in a seminatural population of Drosophila melanogaster during 1972–97. Both long-term and short-term fluctuations were observed. The short-term fluctuations occurred within almost all years and comparison of allele frequencies between winters and summers showed significantly higher AdhS (P < 0.001) and αGpdhF (P < 0.01) allele frequencies in summers. Frequencies of these alleles were significantly positively correlated with environmental temperature, suggesting the adaptive significance of these allozyme polymorphisms. Frequency changes of the Odh locus (located on the third chromosome) showed no seasonal pattern and were not correlated with environmental temperature. Almost all short-term and long-term increases in AdhS frequency were accompanied by a corresponding decrease in αGpdhS frequency (r = –0.82, P < 0.001) and vice versa. Further analysis showed that gametic disequilibria between the Adh and αGpdh loci, which frequently occurred, were due to the presence of inversion In(2L)t located on the same chromosome arm and In(2L)t frequencies were positively correlated with environmental temperature. Gametic disequilibria between Adh and Odh and between Odh and αGpdh were hardly observed. Because In(2L)t is exclusively associated with the AdhS/αGpdhF allele combination, the observed correlated response in Adh/αGpdh allele frequencies is (at least partly) explained by hitchhiking effects with In(2L)t. This means that the adaptive value of the allozyme polymorphisms has been overestimated by ignoring In(2L)t polymorphism. Fluctuations in Adh allele frequencies are fully explained by selection on In(2L)t polymorphism, whereas we have shown that αGpdh frequency fluctuations are only partly explained by chromosomal hitchhiking, indicating the presence of selective differences among αGpdh genotypes in relation with temperature and independent of In(2L)t. Frequency fluctuations of αGpdh and In(2L)t are consistent with their latitudinal distributions, assuming that temperature is the main environmental factor varying with latitude that causes directly or indirectly these frequency distributions. However, the results of the tropical greenhouse population show no correlation of Adh (independent of In(2L)t) and Odh allele frequencies with environmental temperature, which may indicate that the latitudinal distribution in allele frequencies for these loci is not the result of selection on the F/S polymorphism in a direct way. 相似文献

Hybrid sterility is a common postzygotic reproductive isolation mechanism that appears in the early stages of speciation of various organisms. Mus musculus musculus and Mus musculus domesticus represent two recently separated mouse subspecies particularly suitable for genetic studies of hybrid sterility. Here we show that the introgression of Chr X of M. m. musculus origin (PWD/Ph inbred strain, henceforth PWD) into the genetic background of the C57BL/6J (henceforth B6) inbred strain (predominantly of M. m. domesticus origin) causes male sterility. The X-linked hybrid sterility is associated with reduced testes weight, lower sperm count, and morphological abnormalities of sperm heads. The analysis of recombinant Chr Xs in sterile and fertile males as well as quantitative trait locus (QTL) analysis of several fertility parameters revealed an oligogenic nature of the X-linked hybrid sterility. The Hstx1 locus responsible for male sterility was mapped near DXMit119 in the central part of Chr X. To ensure full sterility, the PWD allele of Hstx1 has to be supported with the PWD allelic form of loci in at least one proximal and/or one distal region of Chr X. Mapping and cloning of Hstx1 and other genes responsible for sterility of B6–XPWDYB6 males could help to elucidate the special role of Chr X in hybrid sterility and consequently in speciation. 相似文献

Characterization of a Recombinant Mouse t Haplotype That Expresses a Dominant Lethal Maternal Effect 总被引:5,自引:4,他引:1
The twLub2 chromosome was generated by rare recombination between a complete t haplotype and a wild-type form of mouse chromosome 17. This recombinant chromosome expresses a dominant lethal effect in all embryos that inherit the mutant chromosome from their mothers. The phenotype of this maternal effect is indistinguishable from that expressed by the previously described Thp deletion chromosome. It appears likely that the crossing over event that gave rise to twLub2 was unequal and resulted in the alteration or deletion of a gene (which is named the T-associated maternal effect locus, Tme) that must be inherited from the mother in order for normal development to proceed through late stages of gestation. The results presented here allow a mapping of the Tme locus between the quaking and tufted loci which are 3 cM apart within the proximal region of chromosome 17. 相似文献

Lymphocytes from different strains vary in their expression of antigenic determinants encoded by the Qal locus. Thus, a lower percentage of cells from strains bearing H-2Dk are lysed in antibody-mediated cytotoxic tests. These cells fail to completely absorb anti-Qal activity from antisera. The unexpressed determinants are present in unactivated cells when subcellular fractions are tested and are detectable on the membrane of mitogen-activated lymphocytes. The gene(s) controlling this phenomenon are dominant and map to a region between H-2S and Tla. 相似文献

Recombination in the proximal region of mouse chromosome 17 is greatly reduced in heterozygotes carrying the wild-type and
thet complex-type chromosomes. The reason for this is the presence of two non-overlapping inversions in thet complex. Rare crossing-over does, however, occur within thet complex of thet/+ heterozygotes. Here we characterize four such exceptional intra-t recombinants,t
Tu1
throught
Tu4
. To map the positions of the genetic exchange in these four recombinants, we analyzed them with DNA probes specific for 16
loci distributed over thet complex. The analysis revealed that in three of the four recombinants, an equal crossing-over occurred in the short region
between the two inversions, producing chromosomes carrying either the proximal inversion only (t
Tu1
andt
Tu4
) or the distal inversion only (t
Tu2
). In the fourth recombinant (t
Tu3
), unequal crossing-over occurred within the proximal inversion between lociD17Leh119 andD17Leh66, producing a chromosome in which the region containing lociTcp-1, T, andD17Tu5 has been duplicated. The duplication of theBrachyury locus leads to the suppression of the tail-shortening effect normally produced by the interaction of the dominant (T) and recessive (tct) alleles at this locus so that theT/t
Tu3
mice have normal tails. 相似文献
