We analyzed sequences of the D1D2 domain of the 26S ribosomal RNA gene (26S rDNA sequence), the internal transcribed spacer 1, the 5.8S ribosomal RNA gene, and the internal transcribed spacer 2 (the ITS sequence) from 46 strains of miso and soy sauce fermentation yeast, Zygosaccharomyces rouxii and a closely related species, Z. mellis, for typing. Based on the 26S rDNA sequence analysis, the Z. rouxii strains were of two types, and the extent of sequence divergence between them was 2.6%. Based on the ITS sequence analysis, they were divided into seven types (I–VII). Between the type strain (type I) and type VI, in particular, a 12% difference was detected. The occurrence of these nine genotypes with a divergence of more than 1% in these two sequences suggests that Z. rouxii is a species complex including novel species and hybrids. Z. mellis strains were of two types (type α and type β) based on the ITS sequence. Z. rouxii could clearly be distinguished from Z. mellis by 26S rDNA and ITS sequence analyses, but not by the 16% NaCl tolerance, when used as the sole key characteristic for differentiation between the two species.  相似文献

Amphistomiasis, a neglected trematode infectious disease of ruminants, is caused by numerous species of amphistomes belonging to six families under the Superfamily Paramphistomoidea. In the present study, four frequently used DNA markers, viz. nuclear ribosomal 28S (D1–D3 regions), 18S and ITS2 and mitochondrial COI genes, as well as sequence motifs from these genes were evaluated for their utility in species characterization of members of the amphistomes' Family Gastrothylacidae commonly prevailing in Northeast India. In sequence and phylogenetic analyses the COI gene turned out to be the most useful marker in identifying the gastrothylacid species, with the exception of Gastrothylax crumenifer, which showed a high degree of intraspecific variations among its isolates. The sequence analysis data also showed the ITS2 region to be effective for interspecies characterization, though the 28S and 18S genes were found unsuitable for the purpose. On the other hand, sequence motif analysis data revealed the motifs from the COI gene to be highly conserved and specific for their target species which allowed accurate in silico identification of the gastrothylacid species irrespective of their intraspecific differences. We propose the use of COI motifs generated in the study as a potential tool for identification of these species.  相似文献

The extent of interspecific homology between D. melanogaster and D. virilis for ribosomal RNA and ribosomal protein was examined using the techniques of two-dimensional gel electrophoresis, and RNA-DNA filter hybridization. Only 2 of the 71 ribosomal proteins resolved were found to be species specific, while comparisons of soluble larval hemolymph protein patterns showed little similarity. Depending on the technique employed, the sequence homology for 18S + 28S ribosomal RNA was found to be between 83–94%, and sequence homology for 5S rRNA was judged to be complete.  相似文献

Primer sequences are described for amplifying and sequencing a large fragment (approximately 2500 b.p.) of the nuclear-encoded large-subunit ribosomal RNA gene (LSU) from red algae. In comparison to RuBisCo large-subunit gene (rbcL) and nuclear-encoded small-subunit ribosomal RNA gene (SSU) sequence data, LSU sequence data was intermediate in the number of phylogenetically informative positions and sequence divergence. Parsimony analysis of LSU sequences for 16 Gelidiales species resolved some nodes unresolved in rbcL and SSU parsimony trees. An analysis of LSU sequences from 13 species of red algae classified in 11 orders suggests that this gene may be useful in studies of higher-level relationships of red algae.  相似文献

Marteilia refringens is recognized as one of the most significant pathogens of bivalve molluscs. The nucleotide sequence of the small subunit ribosomal RNA gene of Marteilia refringens is used to elucidate the phylogenetic position of the phylum Paramyxea. Genomic DNA was extracted from sporangia of Marteilia, purified from infected blue mussels, Mytilus edulis, and flat oysters, Ostrea edulis. The sequences obtained from Marteilia species purified from both oysters and mussels were identical. The sequence identity was confirmed by in situ hybridization using a DNA probe targeted to a variable region of the ribosomal DNA. The small subunit ribosomal RNA gene sequence of M. refringens is very different from all known sequences of eukaryotic organisms, including those of myxosporeans and haplosporeans. Therefore, the phylum Paramyxea should continue to be recognized as an independent eukaryotic phylum.  相似文献

For new species in Lipomyces are described. In terms of nuclear genome comparison the genus Lipomyces comprises three species-clusters. A key to the nine species now assigned to the genus, is given. The delimitation of species by (i) rRNA nucleotide sequence analyses of the 18S and 25S subunits and (II) nDNA homology determinations, do not invariably lead to the recognition of congruent taxa. The family of the Lipomycetaceae, nevertheless provides an illuminative model for phylogenetic studies in terms of more appropriate ribosomal nucleotide sequence analyses of both its teleomorphic and anamorphic members.  相似文献

ABSTRACT. Didascalus thorntoni , Singh 1952 has been classified alternately as a separate genus or as a species of Naegleria. In the 18th edition of the American Type Culture Collection catalogue it is classified as Naegleria thorntoni. To resolve the question of its identity we have used riboprinting and sequencing of the small subunit ribosomal DNA. The results indicate that D. thorntoni does not belong to the genus Naegleria. The sequence of the small subunit ribosomal DNA differs only in 20 nucleotides (1%) from that of the Paratetramitus jugosus. The difference is much smaller than between some species of Naegleria. Therefore, it is not clear whether D. thorntoni should be considered as a species of Paratetramitus or as a separate genus. The strain used in different laboratories as the type strain of Adelophamoeba gleacystis has been identified as a Naegleria strain. We believe that the type strain of A. galeacystis was mislabeled prior to submission to the American Type Culture Collection and to the Culture Collection of Algae and Protozoa. A recent isolate, which on the basis of morphology was identified as a strain of A. Galeacystis , has the identical small subunit ribosomal DNA sequence as D. throntoni. Our results prove Page was right when he stated that Adelphamoeba might be a synonym of Didascalus.  相似文献

We analyzed sequences of the D1D2 domain of the 26S ribosomal RNA gene (26S rDNA sequence), and the region of internal transcribed spacer 1, 5.8S ribosomal RNA gene and internal transcribed spacer 2 (ITS sequence) of the miso and soy sauce fermentation yeasts, Candida etchellsii and Candida versatilis, in order to evaluate the usefulness of this sequence analysis for identification and typing of these two species. In the 26S rDNA sequence method, the numbers of base substitutions among C. etchellsii strains were up to 2 in 482 bp (99.6% similarity), and they were divided into three types (types A, B, and C). Those of C. versatilis strains were also up to 2 in 521 bp (99.6% similarity) and they were divided into three types (types 1, 2, and 3). In the ITS sequence method, those of C. etchellsii strains were zero in 433 bp (type a, 100% similarity). Those of C. versatilis were 5 in 409 bp (98.8% similarity), divided into 4 types (types I, II, III and IV). It was found that molecular methods based on the sequences of the 26S rDNA D1D2 domain and the ITS region were rapid and precise compared with the physiological method for the identification and typing of these two species.  相似文献

Analysis of the complete genomic structure of the human ribosomal protein S3 (rpS3) gene revealed the presence of a functional U15b snoRNA gene in its intron. Human ribosomal protein S3 (rpS3) gene of 6115 bp long has been identified to contain six introns and seven exons in this study. The first and fifth introns of human S3 gene contain functional U15 snoRNA genes. Although Xenopus and Fugu counterparts also have six introns and seven exons, S3 gene of Fugu contains two functional U15 snoRNAs in the fourth and sixth introns and two pseudo genes for U15 snoRNAs in the first and fifth introns. In Xenopus S1 gene encoding ribosomal protein S3, however, three of its six introns contain U15 snoRNA gene sequence. Sequence comparison of the U15 genes from Xenopus, Fugu and human revealed that the regions involved in binding to 28S rRNA and the consensus sequence (C, D and D' boxes) for snoRNAs are highly conserved among those genes from these three species. Human U15a and U15b RNAs which are derived from the first and the fifth introns, respectively, have been identified to be functional by microinjection of human U15a and U15b snoRNAs into Xenopus oocyte. Northern blot and primer extension analyses confirm that human U15b snoRNA is expressed in vivo.  相似文献

The first and second internal transcribed spacer (ITS1 and ITS2) regions of the ribosomal DNA from four species, Meretrix meretrix L., Cyclina sinensis G., Mercenaria mercenaria L., and Protothaca jedoensis L., belonging to the family Veneridae were amplified by PCR and sequenced. The size of the ITS1 PCR amplification product ranged from 663 bp to 978 bp, with GC contents ranging from 60.78% to 64.97%. The size of the ITS1 sequence ranged from 585 bp to 900 bp, which is the largest range reported thus far in bivalve species, with GC contents ranging from 61.03% to 65.62%. The size of the ITS2 PCR amplification product ranged from 513 bp to 644 bp, with GC contents ranging from 61.29% to 62.73%. The size of the ITS2 sequence ranged from 281 bp to 412 bp, with GC contents ranging from 65.21% to 67.87%. Extensive sequence variation and obvious length polymorphisms were noted for both regions in these species, and sequence similarity of ITS2 was higher than that of ITS1 across species. The complete sequences of 5.8S ribosomal RNA gene were obtained by assembling ITS1 and ITS2 sequences, and the sequence length in all species was 157 bp. The phylogenetic tree of Veneridae clams was reconstructed using ITS2-containing partial sequences of both 5.8S and 28S ribosomal DNA as markers and the corresponding sequence information in Arctica islandica as the outgroup. Tree topologies indicated that P. jedoensis shared a close relationship with M. mercenaria and C. sinensis, a distant relationship with other species.  相似文献

The organization of ribosomal proteins in 16 prokaryotic genomes was studied as an example of comparative genome analyses of gene systems. Hypothetical ribosomal protein-containing operons were constructed. These operons also contained putative genes and other non-ribosomal genes. The correspondences among these genes across different organisms were clarified by sequence homology computations. In this way a cross tabulation of 70 ribosomal proteins genes was constructed. On average, these were organized into 9-14 operons in each genome. There were also 25 non-ribosomal or putative genes in these mainly ribosomal protein operons. Hence the table contains 95 genes in total. It was found that: (i) the conservation of the block of about 20 r-proteins in the L3 and L4 operons across almost the entire eubacteria and archaebacteria is remarkable; (ii) some operons only belong to eubacteria or archaebacteria; (iii) although the ribosomal protein operons are highly conserved within domain, there are fine variations in some operons across different organisms within each domain, and these variations are informative on the evolutionary relations among the organisms. This method provides a new potential for studying the origin and evolution of old species.  相似文献

The relatively variable D1 domain near the 5 end of the 28S ribosomal RNA gene (large subunit rRNA) has been sequenced for 12 species of digenean trematodes. Phylogenetic relationships among these species and Schistosoma mansoni (previously published sequence) were investigated with maximum parsimony and distance methods. A DNA sequence from the tapeworm (Cestoda) Hymenolepis diminuta was used for outgroup comparison. In all analyses, several clusters of taxa appeared repeatedly: (1) four fasciolids; (2) three didymozoids with a hemiurid; and (3) two lepocreadiids with a gyliauchenid. Bootstrap resampling of the data revealed that the first two clusters were well supported. In contrast there was less support for the cluster containing the lepocreadiids and gyliauchenid. We conclude that the D1 domain is too variable for phylogenetic inference among distantly related families, but it is well suited to phylogenetic inference within and among closely related families in the Digenea.  相似文献

Pythium ornacarpum sp. nov. was isolated from a soil sample taken from Genlis in the Burgundy region of France. This species is unique because of its ornamented oogonia which are completely surrounded by antheridial filaments. The fungus is closely related to Pythium echinulatum Matthews. Morphological and reproductive aspects of this species as well as a study by PCR of the sequence of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS1) of the nuclear ribosomal gene and its comparison with related species are described here. The nucleotide sequence of the ITS1 region flaking the 5.8S rRNA of this species and other related species are also given here.  相似文献

The nucleotide sequence of the junctions between the 28S ribosomal gene and site-specific insertion elements from two sibling mosquito species, Anopheles gambiae and A. arabiensis, is reported. In both species, elements insert at the same point within the 28S gene, but this site is 634 basepairs (bp) 3' of the R1 (Type I) insertion site in Drosophila melanogaster. The two mosquito elements each have poly A tails and a polyadenylation signal, but the extreme 3' and 5' ends show no other similarity to each other or to any other insertion element. In both mosquito species, identical target site duplications of 17 bp are generated. The sequence TNTCCCTNT found in this duplication is also found in the 14 bp target site duplications that flank R1 elements in D. melanogaster. Another sequence in this duplication, GGGATAACT, is very similar to the sequence GGGAGTAACT found in the 24 base sequence required by the Bombyx mori R2 endonuclease.  相似文献
