濒危植物绵刺8个种群遗传多样性的AFLP分析

利用8对AFLP引物对我国绵刺的8个种群240份材料的基因组DNA进行扩增,得到大小在65～530bp之间的397条清晰显带,其中296(74.56%)条呈多态性,平均每对AFLP引物得到37条多态性带;用PopGen32软件将AFLP多态性数据进行分析,不同种群的Nei's基因多样性指数和Shannon信息指数变化范围分别在0.0845～0.1779和0.1280～0.2377之间,其中遗传多样性最高为上沙窝种群,最低为银根种群,可将上沙窝种群作为种质遗传中心之一进行保护.绵刺遗传变异有68.31%存在种群内,31.69%种群之间,说明变异主要存在于种群内部.8个种群的平均遗传距离为0.1341,按UPGMA进行聚类分析,结果表明绵刺种群具有明显的地域相关性和遗传类型趋同性,说明不同的种群可能有共同的起源,随机遗传漂变不是影响绵刺种群遗传多样性的主要过程.建议在迁地保护和取样时,不仅要在每个种群中取足够多的个体,而且要在尽可能多的种群中取样,最大限度地保护绵刺的遗传多样性,为进一步地系统演化研究奠定基础.     

Evaluation of AFLP markers to reveal genetic diversity in Typha

We investigated to what extent DNA-markers can assist species determination in the genus Typha. A set of AFLP markers was used to discriminate samples of the species Typha latifolia and Typha angustifolia collected in Flanders (North Belgium). The T. latifolia samples formed a compact cluster while the T. angustifolia samples were divided into smaller groups. It was not clear whether interspecific hybrids or higher levels of diversity present in the T. angustifolia dataset could account for this. As in previous surveys, using isozyme and VNTR markers, AFLP markers revealed an almost complete lack of genetic variation in Flemish T. latifolia. Despite the low degree of diversity, a significant level of genetic differentiation was found between the T. latifolia samples originating from different river basins. Whether this differentiation has any ecological relevance remains to be investigated. The methodology applied was not able to detect clonal reproduction in T. latifolia. Probably, the low levels of diversity present in this species can account for this, indicating that the usefulness of the methodology applied depends on the level of diversity present in the species studied.     

Assessment of genetic diversity in Azadirachta indica using AFLP markers

 Genetic diversity was estimated in 37 neem accessions from different eco-geographic regions of India and four exotic lines from Thailand using AFLP markers. Seven AFLP selective primer combinations generated a total of 422 amplification products. The average number of scorable fragments was 60 per experiment, and a high degree (69.8%) of polymorphism was obtained per assay with values ranging from 58% to 83.8%. Several rare and accession-specific bands were identified which could be effectively used to distinguish the different genotypes. Genetic relationships within the accessions were evaluated by generating a similarity matrix based on the Jaccard index. The phenetic dendrogram generated by UPGMA as well as principal correspondence analysis separated the 37 Indian genotypes from the four Thai lines. The cluster analysis indicated that neem germplasm within India constitutes a broad genetic base with the values of genetic similarity coefficient ranging from 0.74 to 0.93. Also, the Indian genotypes were more dispersed on the principal correspondence plot, indicating a wide genetic base. The four lines from Thailand, on the other hand, formed a narrow genetic base with similarity coefficients ranging from 0.88 to 0.92. The lowest genetic similarity coefficient value (0.47) was observed between an Indian and an exotic genotype. The level of genetic variation detected within the neem accessions with AFLP analysis suggests that it is an efficient marker technology for delineating genetic relationships amongst genotypes and estimating genetic diversity, thereby enabling the formulation of appropriate strategies for conservation and tree improvement programs.

Comparing AFLP, RAPD and RFLP markers for measuring genetic diversity in melon

Three different types of molecular markers, RAPD, AFLP and RFLP were used to measure genetic diversity among six genotypes of Cucumis melo L. Each line represented a different melon genotype: Piel de Sapo, Ogen, PI161375, PI414723, Agrestis and C105. A number of polymorphic RAPD, AFLP and RFLP bands were scored on all materials and the genetic similarity measured. Clustering analysis performed with the three types of markers separated the genotypes into two main groups: (1) the sweet type, cultivated melons and (2) the exotic type, not cultivated melons. While the data obtained suggest that all three types of markers are equally informative, AFLPs showed the highest efficiency in detecting polymorphism.

Genetic relationship and genetic diversity among Typha taxa from East Asia based on AFLP markers

The genetic relationship and diversity among four Typha taxa in East Asia were evaluated using amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) markers. Three AFLP selective primer combinations generated a total of 707 amplification products, of which 704 (99.6%) were polymorphic. The unweighted pair-group method with arithmetic mean (UPGMA) dendrogram and principal component analysis (PCA) plot confirmed the taxonomic status of four separate species. East Asian Typha taxa separated into two groups: the first with Typha angustifolia and the second with T. orientalis, T. laxmanni, and T. latifolia with a high bootstrap value for UPGMA (93%) and a low first score for PCA (25%). The two clusters corresponded with two sections based on the bracteoles in the female flower: section Bracteolatae and section Ebracteolatae. T. angustifolia showed the highest genetic diversity among the four Typha taxa (percentage of polymorphic loci [PPL] = 71%, H_o = 0.157), whereas T. latifolia had the lowest genetic diversity (PPL = 40%, H_o = 0.117). Genetic diversity was related to the presence of the gap between male and female inflorescences. A positive correlation between genetic distance and geographic distance was clearly found in the two species with continuous inflorescences (T. latifolia and T. orientalis). This positive correlation was not observed in the other species with discontinuous spikes (T. angustifolia and T. laxmanni).     

Analysis of genetic diversity and sectional relationships in Musa using AFLP markers

The AFLP technique was used to assess the genetic diversity and sectional relationships in 39 accessions representing the four main sections of the genus Musa. Eight AFLP + 3 primer pairs produced 260 polymorphic bands that were used in cluster and PCO analysis. A wide range of variability was observed among the species within the sections of the genus Musa. AFLP data was useful in separating the different sections of the genus as well as differentiating the different genomic groups of section Eumusa. Section Rhodochlamys (x = 11) appeared as a distinct entity and clustered closely with the Musa acuminata Colla complex of section Eumusa that has the same basic chromosome number. This relationship is congruent with previous studies. However, unlike previous proposals that questioned the identity of Rhodochlamys as a separate taxonomic unit, PCO analysis of the AFLP data showed that it is a distinct entity. Musa laterita Cheesman (Rhodochlamys) and Musa schizocarpa Simmonds clustered with the M. acuminata complex suggesting that they may be sources of useful genes for the improvement of the cultivated bananas. Callimusa formed a distinct unit and was closer to Australimusa than to the other sections. Although both sections share the same basic chromosome number of x = 10 these sections are genetically distinct     

Population structure and genetic diversity of Huperzia serrata (Huperziaceae) based on amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) markers

The levels and pattern of the genetic variation within and among natural populations of Huperzia serrata were investigated using amplified fragment length polymorphism markers. Seven primer combinations used in the study amplified 615 discernible bands with 532 (86.5%) being polymorphic, indicating a considerable high level of genetic diversity at the species level. AMOVA analysis revealed a low level of genetic differentiation among the ten populations. The UPGMA cluster of all samples showed that individuals from the same population occasionally failed to cluster in one distinct group. A Mantel test showed no significant correlation between genetic distance and geographical distance (r = 0.278, P = 0.891), suggesting that the gene flow was not restricted geographically. A number of factors that might affect the genetic profiles of H. serrata included clonal growth, selective effect of niche and outcrossing, as well as the effective wind-dispersal of spores.     

Analysis of the genetic diversity and population structure of Perinereis aibuhitensis in China using TRAP and AFLP markers

Perinereis aibuhitensis is found in the coastal waters of northwestern Pacific. Different ecotypes are distributed throughout the coastal sea beach based on their ecology and behavior, but relatively little is known about the population structure of this species. In this study, we estimated the genetic relationships within P. aibuhitensis using Target Region Amplified Polymorphisms (TRAP) and Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphisms (AFLP) that were derived from related populations on the coasts of China. All populations were uniquely fingerprinted using the TRAP and AFLP marker method. The mean genetic distance was estimated to be 0.1859 based on the TRAPs and AFLPs. Using the Unweighted Pair Group Method with Arithmetic Mean (UPGMA) by Molecular Evolutionary Genetics Analysis (MEGA) 6.06 software, Principal Coordinate Analysis (PCA) and STRUCTURE analysis, the phylogenetic tree of the ten P. aibuhitensis populations was separated into four major clusters; however, the mantel test indicated that there was no significant correlation between the genetic and geographical distances due to gene differentiation and gene flow (P > 0.005). The genetic diversity was low for P. aibuhitensis at the population level compared with the species level. Finally, an appropriate strategy for conserving the P. aibuhitensis germplasm is proposed.     

A genetic map of Maritime pine based on AFLP, RAPD and protein markers

TheAFLP (amplified fragment length polymorphism) technique was adapted to carry out genetic analysis in maritime pine, a species characterized by a large genome size (24 pg/C). A genetic linkage map was constructed for one F₁ individual based on 239 AFLP and 127 RAPD (randomly amplified polymorphic DNA) markers. Markers were scored on megagametophytes (1n) from 200 germinated F₂ seedlings. Polymorphism rate, labour time and cost of both AFLP and RAPD techniques were compared. The AFLP technique was found to be twice as fast and three-times less costly per marker than the RAPD technique. Thirteen linkage groups were identified with a LOD score ≥6 covering 1873 cM, which provided 93.4% of genome coverage. Proteins were extracted from needles (2n) of the F₂ progeny and revealed by 2-DE (two-dimensional electrophoresis). Thirty one segregating proteins were mapped using a QTL detection strategy based on the quantification of protein accumulation. Two framework maps of the same F₁ individual are now available. The first map (Plomion et al. 1996) uses RAPD markers and the second map, presented in this study, uses mostly AFLP markers. Although the total genetic length of both maps was almost identical, differences among homologous groups were observed. Received: 11 February 1999 / Accepted: 29 April 1999     

Assessing genetic diversity in indigenous Veneto chicken breeds using AFLP markers

Genetic variation in four indigenous chicken breeds from the Veneto region of Italy was assessed using amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) markers. A total of 99 individuals were analysed using three AFLP primer combinations that produced 70 polymorphisms. Four indigenous Veneto chicken breeds (Ermellinata, Padovana, Pépoi and Robusta) and a reference broiler line were included in the analysis. Breed-specific markers were identified in each breed. The expected heterozygosity did not differ significantly among the indigenous Veneto chicken breeds and the broiler line. The coefficient of gene variation (Gst) value across loci indicated that almost half of the total variability was observed among breeds. Nei's standard genetic distance between pairs of breeds showed that the distance between the broiler line and the Pépoi breed was greater than the distances between the broiler line and the other three chicken breeds. Cluster analysis based on standard genetic distances between breeds indicated that the Padovana and Pépoi breeds were closely related. Factorial analysis based on a binary matrix of the AFLP data showed a clear distinction of all breeds.     

基于ISSR遗传多样性分析的云南蓝果树保护措施探索

保存种群的遗传多样性和进化潜力是成功拯救保护濒危物种的关键。云南蓝果树(Nyssa yunnanensis W.C.Yin)是国家I级重点保护的极度濒危野生植物,也是国家实施极小种群野生植物保护工程的目的物种。为了制定针对性的保护措施,采用ISSR分子标记方法对64株极度濒危物种云南蓝果树子代个体进行遗传多样性分析。从100条引物中筛选出12条ISSR引物,共扩增出77个稳定、清晰的条带。其中58个为多态性条带,物种水平上的多态性条带百分率(PPL)变动范围为50.00%~87.50%,平均值为(74.65±0.01)%;等位基因观察值(Na)为1.7532;有效等位基因观察值(Ne)为1.5804;Nei's基因多样性指数(He)为0.3206,多态性信息含量指数(PIC)变动范围为0.15~0.44,平均值为0.27±0.01;Shannon's遗传多样性信息指数(I)随着样本数的增加而升高,但当样本数达到24及以上时,Shannon's指数的数值基本不再变化。基于遗传多样性分析结果,从地质历史原因和人为干扰因素等方面对云南蓝果树的濒危机制进行了探析,并提出了有针对性的云南蓝果树保护措施。     

Genetic diversity and population structure of Chrysichthys nigrodigitatus from Niger Delta based on AFLP analysis

The silver catfish, Chrysichthys nigrodigitatus is an important food fish in the Niger Delta. To understand the genetic variations and population structure in Nigeria’s Niger Delta, eighty-eight individuals collected from 7 locations were analyzed based on amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) analysis. A total of 243 bands were identified using 4 AFLP primer combinations. The average gene diversity was 0.1708 ± 0.1547 and Shannon’s information index was 0.2792 ± 0.2224. The pairwise F_st values ranged from 0.133 to 0.796. The results of AMOVA analysis indicated that 19.03% of the genetic variation was contained among three groups. The gene flow estimates (Nm) demonstrated that different degrees of gene flow existed among populations ranging from 0.064 to 1.630. Two clades were recognized on the UPGMA tree. The results supported that freshwater or brackishwater habitat, limited long-distance dispersal of the adult and juveniles and physical barriers may be responsible for the current genetic structure.     

白桦AFLP遗传连锁图谱的构建

以80个中国白桦(Betula platyphylla Suk)×欧洲白桦(Betula pendula Roth)的F1个体为作图群体, 利用扩增片段长度多态性(Amplified fragment length polymorphism, AFLP)标记, 按照拟测交作图策略, 分别构建了中国白桦和欧洲白桦的分子标记遗传连锁图谱。从64对AFLP引物组合中筛选出34对多态性丰富的引物组合, 这些入选的引物组合在分离群体中共检测到451个多态性位点。χ2检验结果表明, 有362个位点符合1∶1分离(拟测交分离位点), 41个位点符合3∶1分离, 20个位点符合1∶3分离, 28个位点属偏分离位点。在符合拟测交分离的位点中, 201个位点来自中国白桦, 161个位点来自欧洲白桦。利用2点连锁分析, 来自中国白桦的201个标记构成了14个连锁群(4个以上标记), 10个三连体和14个连锁对, 45个为非连锁位点, 连锁标记覆盖的总图距为1 296.1 cM, 平均图距15.5 cM。而来自欧洲白桦的161个标记构成了17个不同的连锁群(4个以上标记), 8个三连体和4个连锁对, 15个为非连锁位点, 连锁标记覆盖的总图距为1 035.8 cM, 平均图距12 cM。     

柴达木地区野生黑果枸杞种群遗传多样性的AFLP分析

采用扩增片段长度多态性(AFLP)分子标记技术对青海省柴达木地区5个野生黑果枸杞(Lycium ruthenicum)种群的120份样品的遗传多样性进行分析。结果表明: 柴达木地区野生黑果枸杞具有很高的遗传多样性, 9对选扩引物共得到1691条清晰条带, 其中多态性条带1678条, 多态性变异率为99.23%, 种群间的有效等位基因数为1.4712, Nei’s基因多样性为0.3245, Shannon信息指数为0.4367。分子方差分析(AMOVA)结果表明: 柴达木地区5个黑果枸杞种群的遗传变异主要存在于种群内部(92%), 种群间的遗传分化较小(8%, 遗传分化系数0.08)。黑果枸杞种群间的遗传相似系数介于0.9709-0.9922之间, 平均值为0.9835。种群间的聚类及Mantel检验(γ = 0.3368, p = 0.8064)均表明柴达木地区黑果枸杞种群地理距离与遗传距离之间的相关性不明显; 黑果枸杞个体间的聚类表明同一种群的个体不能完全聚在一起。对同一种源的遗传多样性分析发现, 诺木洪奥斯勒草场的种源内部的遗传变异更为丰富, 这或许可以推断诺木洪可能为柴达木地区野生黑果枸杞种质资源的中心产区。     

Assessment of genetic diversity in a Morus germplasm collection using fluorescence-based AFLP markers

To meet various breeding objectives and to conserve the existing genetic resources of mulberry for future use, the present study was undertaken to investigate the amount of genetic diversity and to establish the relationships between mulberry genotypes using fluorescence-based AFLP markers. Genetic diversity was estimated in 45 mulberry accessions from different eco-geographic regions of Japan and other parts of the world. Five primer combinations amplified an average of 110 AFLP markers per primer combination, ranging in size from 35 to 500 bp. A high degree of polymorphism was revealed by these combinations that ranged from 69.7 to 82.3% across all the genotypes studied. Several rare genotype-specific bands were also identified which could be effectively utilized to distinguish different genotypes. The wide range in genetic similarity coefficients (0.58–0.99) indicated that the mulberry germplasm collection represents a genetically diverse popu-lation. The phenetic dendrogram generated by the UPGMA method grouped 45 accessions into four major clusters, which was in agreement with the results from conventional methods. Clustering of some genotypes into strictly separate groups was not readily apparent and no clear interrelationships could be depicted, in spite of their different geographic origin. In addition, AFLP analysis provided sufficient polymorphism for DNA typing and contributed additional insights into the genetic structure of the mulberry germplasm. These results will help in the formulation of appropriate strategies for conservation and variety improvement in mulberry, for which little or no knowledge of genetic diversity is currently available.

Analysis of genetic diversity in Aconitum kongboense L. revealed by AFLP markers

The systematic evaluation of the molecular diversity encompassed in Aconitum kongboense L. inbreds or parental lines offers an efficient means of exploiting the heterosis in A. kongboense as well as for management of biodiversity. An excellent and novel DNA-based molecular, amplified fragment length polymorphisms (AFLPs) markers, was firstly used to analysis the genetic diversity in A. kongboense genotypes. Out of 256 primers screened, a total of ten combinations successfully produced scorable, clear, reproducible and relatively high polymorphism bands, 64.12% of which were polymorphic. The values of number of polymorphic loci (NPL), percentage of polymorphic loci (PPB), observed number of alleles (Na) and effective number of alleles (Ne) were highest in population 3 (NPL = 77, PPB = 68.75%, Na = 1.688 ± 0.466, Ne = 1.412 ± 0.397) and lowest in population 2 (NPL = 57, PPB = 50.89%, Na = 1.509 ± 0.502, Ne = 1.273 ± 0.340). In addition, Jaccard's similarity coefficients among different populations varied from 0.45 to 1.00 with an average of 0.55. The data collected will contribute to identification, rational exploitation and conservation of germplasms of A. kongboense, and potentially useful to aid its breeding.     

A genetic linkage map of Silene vulgaris based on AFLP markers.

A genetic linkage map of an intraspecific cross between 2 Silene vulgaris s.l. ecotypes is presented. Three-hundred AFLP markers from 2 different restriction enzyme combinations were used to genotype an F2 mapping population. Maternal and paternal pure-coupling phase maps with 114 and 186 markers on 12 and 13 linkage groups, respectively, were constructed. Total map length of the paternal and maternal maps are 547 and 446 Kosambi cM, respectively. Nearly half of the markers (49%) exhibited significant transmission ratio distortion. Genome coverage and potential causes of the observed segregation ratio distortions are discussed. The maps represent a first step towards the identification of quantitative trait loci associated with habitat adaptation in the non-model species Silene vulgaris.     

AFLP analysis of genetic diversity within and between Arabidopsis thaliana ecotypes

The degree of genetic diversity within and between 21 Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh ecotypes was estimated by AFLP analysis. Within seven of the 21 ecotypes, a low but significant level of polymorphism was detected, and for five of these ecotypes two or three distinct subgroups could be distinguished. As these ecotypes represent natural populations, this intra-ecotypic diversity reflects natural genetic variation and diversification within the ecotypes. The source of this diversity remains unclear but is intriguing in view of the predominantly self-fertilizing nature of Arabidopsis. Interrelationships between the different ecotypes were estimated after AFLP fingerprinting using two enzyme combinations (EcoRI/MseI and SacI/MseI) and a number of selective primer pairs. SacI recognition sites are less evenly distributed in the genome than EcoRI sites, and occur more frequently in coding sequences. In most cases, AFLP data from only one enzyme combination are used for genetic diversity analysis. Our results show that the use of two enzyme combinations can result in significantly different classifications of the ecotypes both in cluster and ordination analysis. This difference most probably reflects differences in the genomic distribution of the AFLP fragments generated, depending on the enzymes and selective primers used. For closely related varieties, as in the case of Arabidopsis ecotypes, this can preclude reliable classification.     

黔东南香禾糯AFLP遗传多样性分析与评价

香禾糯是我国侗族人民数百年来的传统主食,也是传统农业生态系统的重要组成部分。本文通过民族植物学调查与现代分子生物学试验相结合的方法,对黔东南侗族地区传统分类的香禾糯农家品种进行了评价,以便探讨香禾糯种质资源的遗传多样性变化。通过8对AFLP引物并基于遗传距离和遗传相似系数,对从黔东南侗族地区收集的95个香禾糯农家品种进行了分析。共检测到707个位点,其中多态性位点为619个,占87.55%,Shannon-Weiner多样性指数为0.3738,基因多样性指数为0.2446,遗传相似系数为0.7121~0.9958。当遗传相似系数为0.7546时,可划分为Ⅰ、Ⅱ两大类,外加1个特殊品种,其中Ⅰ类群有88个品种,Ⅱ类群有6个品种,来自相同和相邻侗寨或者形态性状相近的品种并没有完全聚在一起。结果表明黔东南地区香禾糯农家品种遗传多样性总体水平较高,特别是传统耕作文化保护较好的侗寨内,其遗传背景差异较大。香禾糯种质资源的多样性形成,在很大程度上与黔东南地区复杂多变的自然环境有关,还与该地区少数民族的传统耕作制度和民族传统文化延续密切相关。     

Characterization of genetic diversity and population structure in wheat using array based SNP markers

Genetic diversity is crucial for successful adaptation and sustained improvement in crops. India is bestowed with diverse agro-climatic conditions which makes it rich in wheat germplasm adapted to various niches. Germplasm repository consists of local landraces, trait specific genetic stocks including introgressions from wild relatives, exotic collections, released varieties, and improved germplasm. Characterization of genetic diversity is done using morpho-physiological characters as well as by analyzing variations at DNA level. However, there are not many reports on array based high throughput SNP markers having characteristics of genome wide coverage employed in Indian spring wheat germplasm. Amongst wheat SNP arrays, 35K Axiom Wheat Breeder’s Array has the highest SNP polymorphism efficiency suitable for genetic mapping and genetic diversity characterization. Therefore, genotyping was done using 35K in 483 wheat genotypes resulting in 14,650 quality filtered SNPs, that were distributed across the B (~?50%), A (~?39%), and D (~?10%) genomes. The total genetic distance coverage was 4477.85 cM with 3.27 SNP/cM and 0.49 cM/SNP as average marker density and average inter-marker distance, respectively. The PIC ranged from 0.09 to 0.38 with an average of 0.29 across genomes. Population structure and Principal Coordinate Analysis resulted in two subpopulations (SP1 and SP2). The analysis of molecular variance revealed the genetic variation of 2% among and 98% within subpopulations indicating high gene flow between SP1 and SP2. The subpopulation SP2 showed high level of genetic diversity based on genetic diversity indices viz. Shannon’s information index (I)?=?0.648, expected heterozygosity (He)?=?0.456 and unbiased expected heterozygosity (uHe)?=?0.456. To the best of our knowledge, this study is the first to include the largest set of Indian wheat genotypes studied exclusively for genetic diversity. These findings may serve as a potential source for the identification of uncharacterized QTL/gene using genome wide association studies and marker assisted selection in wheat breeding programs.
