Background
Oncomelania hupensis is the unique intermediate host of Schistosoma japonicum, which causes schistosomiasis endemic in the Far East, and especially in mainland China. O. hupensis largely determines the parasite''s geographical range. How O. hupensis''s genetic diversity is distributed geographically in mainland China has never been well examined with DNA sequence data.Methodology/Principal Findings
In this study we investigate the genetic variation among O. hupensis from different geographical origins using the combined complete internal transcribed spacer 1 (ITS1) and ITS2 regions of nuclear ribosomal DNA. 165 O. hupensis isolates were obtained in 29 localities from 7 provinces across mainland China: lake/marshland and hill regions in Anhui, Hubei, Hunan, Jiangxi and Jiangsu provinces, located along the middle and lower reaches of Yangtze River, and mountainous regions in Sichuan and Yunnan provinces. Phylogenetic and haplotype network analyses showed distinct genetic diversity and no shared haplotypes between populations from lake/marshland regions of the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River and populations from mountainous regions of Sichuan and Yunnan provinces. The genetic distance between these two groups is up to 0.81 based on Fst, and branch time was estimated as 2–6 Ma. As revealed in the phylogenetic tree, snails from Sichuan and Yunnan provinces were also clustered separately. Geographical separation appears to be an important factor accounting for the diversification of the two groups of O. hupensis in mainland China, and probably for the separate clades between snails from Sichuan and Yunnan provinces. In lake/marshland and hill regions along the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, three clades were identified in the phylogenetic tree, but without any obvious clustering of snails from different provinces.Conclusions
O. hupensis in mainland China may have considerable genetic diversity, and a more complex population structure than expected. It will be of significant importance to consider the genetic diversity of O. hupensis when assessing co-evolutionary interactions with S. japonicum. 相似文献3.

The accurate characterization of Schistosoma japonicum has important implications for analyzing genetic variation and would provide basic data for disease control. Previous studies using proteins, coding sequences, and especially antigen-coding genes showed lower genetic variation among S. japonicum isolates from mainland China. Therefore, the present study focused on variations in intron sequences of housekeeping and antigen-coding genes, which may be more informative for genetic analysis. We compared sequence variation between introns of two housekeeping genes and two antigen-coding genes. All 4 genes were polymorphic among all the S. japonicum isolates in mainland China, with 103, 158, 47, and 19 polymorphic (segregating) sites per kilobase in intron sequences of Actin, FBPA, 22.6kDa antigen and GST-26, respectively. Introns of housekeeping genes were slightly more polymorphic than coding and non-coding regions of antigen-coding genes examined in the present study within or among lake/marshland and mountainous types. Phylogenetic analysis based on sequences of single gene or combined sequences of multiple genes showed no specific clustering comprising parasites from single geographical or endemic regions. These results demonstrated that introns of housekeeping and antigen-coding genes were polymorphic, but the intron sequences examined in the present study were not suitable markers for examining genetic relationship among different isolates from endemic regions in mainland China. 相似文献

Echovirus 18(E18), a serotype of Enterovirus B(EV-B) species, is an important pathogen in aseptic meningitis. E18 had rarely been detected in mainland China, but became the predominant pathogen associated with viral encephalitis(VE) and meningitis in Hebei province for the first time in 2015. To investigate the molecular epidemiology and genetic characteristics of E18 in mainland China, sixteen E18 strains from patient throat swabs with hand, foot, and mouth disease(HFMD) in six provinces in China collected between 2015 and 2016, and four E18 strains isolated from 18 patient cerebrospinal fluid specimens with VE in Hebei Province in 2015 were obtained and sequenced. Combined with the sequences from the GenBank database, we performed an extensive genetic analysis. Phylogenetic analysis of VP1 gene sequences revealed that all E18 strains from mainland China after 2015 belonged to subgenotype C2. There were no obvious specific differences in phylogenetic and variation analyses of E18 genome sequences between HFMD and VE/meningitis strains. Potential multiple recombination may have occurred in the 50-untranslated region and in the P2 and P3 nonstructural protein-encoding regions of E18 strains from China. The current E18 strains were potential multiplerecombinant viruses. Overall, these findings supported that E18 caused HFMD, VE, and meningitis, although there were no significant associations between clinical features and viral genomic characteristics. 相似文献

Background
Schistosoma japonicum still causes severe parasitic disease in mainland China, but mainly in areas along the Yangtze River. However, the genetic diversity in populations of S. japonicum has not been well understood across its geographical distribution, and such data may provide insights into the epidemiology and possible control strategies for schistosomiasis.Methodology/Principal Findings
In this study infected Oncomelania snails were collected from areas in the middle and lower (ML) reaches of the Yangtze River, including Hubei, Hunan, Anhui, Jiangxi and Jiangsu provinces, and in the upper reaches of the river, including Sichuan and Yunnan provinces in southwest (SW) China. The adult parasites obtained from experimentally infected mice using isolated cercariae were sequenced individually for several fragments of mitochondrial regions, including Cytb-ND4L-ND4, 16S-12S and ND1. Populations in the ML reaches exhibited a relatively high level of diversity in nucleotides and haplotypes, whereas a low level was observed for populations in the SW, using either each single fragment or the combined sequence of the three fragments. Pairwise analyses of F-statistics (Fst) revealed a significant genetic difference between populations in the ML reaches and those in the SW, with limited gene flow and no shared haplotypes in between. It is rather obvious that genetic diversity in the populations of S. japonicum was significantly correlated with the geographical distance, and the geographical separation/isolation was considered to be the major factor accounting for the observed difference between populations in the ML reaches and those in the SW in China.Conclusions
S. japonicum in mainland China exhibits a high degree of genetic diversity, with a similar pattern of genetic diversity as observed in the intermediate host snails in the same region in China. 相似文献8.

Boes J Willingham AL Fuhui S Xuguang H Eriksen L Nansen P Stewart TB 《Journal of helminthology》2000,74(1):45-52
The prevalence of helminths in pigs was investigated in five rural communities situated on the embankment of Dongting Lake in Zhiyang County, Hunan Province, People's Republic of China, in an area known to be endemic for Schistosoma japonicum. The helminth prevalences identified on the basis of faecal egg count analysis were: Oesophagostomum spp. (86.7%), Ascaris suum (36.7%), Metastrongylus spp. (25.8%), Strongyloides spp. (25.8%), Trichuris suis (15.8%), Globocephalus spp. (6.7%), Gnathostoma spp. (4.2%), Schistosoma japonicum (5.0%) and Fasciola spp. (1.3%). Post mortem examinations of a small number of pigs depositing eggs of different helminth species revealed the presence of Oesophagostomum dentatum, O. quadrispinulatum, A. suum, Metastrongylus apri, M. pudendotectus, T. suis, G. hispidum and Ascarops dentata. Prevalences of all helminths, with the exception of Oesophagostomum spp., were higher in young pigs (< 8 months old) compared with adult pigs. Prevalences of trematodes were very low, especially for S. japonicum which had decreased dramatically compared with previous reports from this area of P.R. China, whereas prevalences of nematodes were generally in agreement with those reported from other Yangtze River Provinces. Results from helminth prevalence studies in pigs, conducted in other provinces of P.R. China between 1987 and 1997, are presented and discussed. It was concluded that a government helminth control programme, implemented in 1995 to control S. japonicum infection in pigs in Hunan Province, may have resulted in a greatly reduced prevalence of S. japonicum in pigs in this region. 相似文献

Phylogeny and diversity of Bradyrhizobium strains isolated from the root nodules of peanut (Arachis hypogaea) in Sichuan, China. 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8

Twenty-two rhizobial strains isolated from the root nodules of two Chinese peanut cultivars (Arachis hypogaea L. Tianfu no. 3 and a local cultivar) growing at four different sites in the Sichuan province, Southwest China, were characterized by growth rate, rep-PCR, PCR-RFLP of 16S rDNA, partial sequencing of ribosomal genes, and fatty acid-methyl ester analysis (FAME), and compared with strains representing Bradyrhizobium japanicum, B. elkanii and other unclassified Bradyrhizobium sp. All peanut isolates from Sichuan were bradyrhizobia. Dendrograms constructed using the rep-PCR fingerprints grouped the strains mainly according to their geographic and cultivar origin. Based on PCR-RFLP and partial sequence analysis of 16S rDNA it appears that peanut bradyrhizobial strains from Sichuan are similar to peanut strains from Africa and Israel, and closely related to B. japonicum. In contrast, analysis of FAME data using two-dimensional principal component analysis indicated that Bradyrhizobium sp. (Arachis) were similar to, but slightly different from other bradyrhizobia. The presence and level of fatty acid 16:1 w5c was the distinguishing feature. The results of PCR-RFLP of the 16S rRNA gene, the partial sequence analysis of 16S rDNA, and FAME were in good agreement. 相似文献

Multi-host parasites, those capable of infecting more than one species of host, are responsible for the majority of all zoonotic, emerging or persistent human and animal diseases and are considered one of the major challenges for the biomedical sciences in the 21st century. We characterized the population structure of the multi-host parasite Schistosoma japonicum in relation to its definitive host species by genotyping miracidia collected from humans and domestic animals across five villages around the Yangtze River in Anhui Province, mainland China, using microsatellite markers. High levels of polymorphisms were observed and two main genetic clusters were identified which separated water buffalo, cattle and humans from goats, pigs, dogs and cats. We thereby believe that we present the first evidence of definitive host-based genetic variation in Schistosoma japonicum which has important epidemiological, evolutionary, medical and veterinary implications. 相似文献

基于Maxent和GARP模型的日本双棘长蠹在中国的潜在地理分布分析 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
【目的】日本双棘长蠹Sinoxylon japonicum是一种重要的林木蛀干害虫。该虫自1981年首次报道于云南昆明以来,先后在中国的10多个省市被发现。近年来该害虫在北京、天津和河北等地对国槐Sophora japonica的危害日趋严重。【方法】在本研究中,作者按时间顺序梳理了日本双棘长蠹在中国的分布记录,根据日本双棘长蠹已有分布记录及其主要寄主植物国槐在我国的种植区域采用了Maxent和GARP两种生态位模型对日本双棘长蠹的潜在地理分布进行分析。【结果】日本双棘长蠹在中国南方地区呈零星分布,而在中国北方地区较为集中。分布记录的报道时间呈现出由南向北和自东向西的局势,推测这种分布格局是由于其寄主植物所导致的:中国北方地区危害严重可能与国槐在中国北方的集中种植有关,寄主树苗在不同地区间的调运是其种群扩散主要原因。基于生态位模拟的结果显示日本双棘长蠹在中国具有较大的适宜生态空间,潜在地理分布范围较广,从北到南其适生区主要有:辽宁西部、北京、天津、宁夏、河北、山西南部、山东、陕西、江苏、安徽、湖北、重庆、浙江、江西、湖南以及四川和贵州西北部。【结论】这些地区间的树苗转运需要做好检验检疫工作,以防止日本双棘长蠹的扩散。 相似文献

Four genetic assays, 16S rRNA restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP), 16S rRNA sequencing, 16S-23S rRNA intergenetic spacer (IGS) RFLP, and amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP), were conducted to determine the genotypic characteristics of 44 indigenous strains of Bradyrhizobium from soybean (Glycine max L.) cropping zones of China. The results generated from different assays showed that soybean bradyrhizobial isolates comprised four genomic groups. Group I was composed of strains mainly isolated from the North and Northeast plains of China. All four assays confirmed this group as phylogenetically divergent from all the reference strains. Strains of the group may represent a new species. Strains in Group II isolated from a variety of geographic regions were ascribed to B. liaoningense. Strains in Group III, mainly isolated from Central and East China, were closely related to the reference strains of B. japonicum. Strains in Group IV belonged to B. elkanii. 相似文献

Population genetic structure and post-establishment dispersal patterns of the red swamp crayfish Procambarus clarkii in China 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The red swamp crayfish (Procambarus clarkii) was introduced to China in the early 20(th) century. It has been spread to almost all forms of fresh water bodies including lakes, rivers and even paddyfields in most provinces of China. To clarify issues such as the initial entry point(s), dispersal pattern, genetic diversity and genetic structure of Procambarus clarkii in China, the genetic structure and diversity of P. clarkii populations at 37 sampling sites (35 from China, one from the USA and one from Japan) were analyzed using both mitochondrial gene sequences (COI and 16S rRNA) and 12 nuclear microsatellites. Multiple tests including phylogenetic analyses, Bayesian assignment and analysis of isolation by distance showed that (i) the population from Japan and those collected from China, particularly from NanJing (BGt and XG) and its some neighboring sites (CJr, NT and NB), have similar genetic composition, (ii) relatively high genetic diversity was detected in Chinese populations, (iii) the P. clarkii populations in China did not experience significant population expansions. Taken together, Nanjing, Jiangsu province is the presumed initial entry point, and human-mediated dispersal and adaptive variation are likely responsible for the observed genetic pattern of P. clarkii in China. 相似文献

采用16S rRNA基因PCR扩增与限制性酶切片段多态性分析(RFLP)技术对选自弗氏中华根瘤菌(S.fredii)、大豆慢生根瘤菌(B.japonicum)和埃氏慢生根瘤菌(B.elkanii)的19株代表菌进行了比较分析,根据用3种限制性内切酶的RFLP分析结果,可将供试菌株分为S.fredii,B.japonicum, B.elkanii Ⅱ和B.elkanii Ⅱa等4种基因型。各类菌株之间没有交叉,因此本研究采用的PCR-RFLP技术不失为一种快速鉴别大豆根瘤菌的新方法。采用本技术已将分离自中国的22株快生菌和19株慢生菌分别鉴定为S.fredii和B.japonicum。对供试参比菌株和野生型菌株进行的16S~23S基因间隔DNA(IGS)的PCR-RFLP分析结果表明:S.fredii和B.japonicum菌株的IGS长度不同,所有供试S.fredii菌株的IGS为2.1 kb,而供试B.japonicum菌株则为2.0 kb。依据RFLP的差异,可将来自中国两个不同地区的S.fredii株区分为2个基因型,而来自中国东北黑龙江地区的19株B.japonicum菌株则可分为11个基因型。对上述野生型菌株还进行了REP-PCR和ERIC-PCR分析并确定其具有菌株水平的特异性。 相似文献

Genetic diversity of Bradyrhizobium japonicum field population revealed by RAPD fingerprinting 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
RAPD fingerprinting was used for strain identification and the assessment of genetic diversity within a field population of Bradyrhizobium japonicum . Total genomic DNAs from 13 field isolates and two inoculant strains were amplified using six different 10-mer primers. Different and informative band patterns were obtained for all strains analysed. Cluster analysis unexpectedly revealed that none of the field isolates was identical to inoculant strains which were regularly used for soybean inoculation. Among field isolates two highly divergent groups were determined. The results indicate that RAPD is a very discriminative and efficient method for differentiating and studying genetic diversity of B. japonicum strains. 相似文献

Schistosoma japonicum , a parasite of significant public health importance in parts of China and Southeast Asia, is a true generalist pathogen with over 40 species of mammals suspected as definitive host reservoirs. In order to characterize levels of parasite gene flow across host species and identify the most important zoonotic reservoirs, S. japonicum larvae (miracidia) were sampled from a range of definitive host species in two contrasting habitat types within Anhui Province, China: a low-lying marshland region, and a hilly region, where animal reservoir populations may be predicted to differ substantially. Miracidia samples were genotyped using seven multiplexed microsatellite markers. Hierarchical F -statistics and clustering analyses revealed substantial geographical structuring of S. japonicum populations within Anhui, with strong parasite genetic differentiation between habitat types. Within most villages, there was very little or no parasite genetic differentiation among host species, suggesting frequent S. japonicum gene flow, and thus also transmission, across species. Moreover, the data provide novel molecular evidence that rodents and dogs are potentially very important infection reservoirs in hilly regions, in contrast to bovines in the marshland regions. The parasite genetic differentiation between habitat types might therefore be associated with contrasting host reservoirs. The high levels of parasite gene flow observed across host species in sympatric areas have important implications for S. japonicum control, particularly in hilly regions where control of infection among wild rodent populations could be challenging. 相似文献

Many animal populations that are endangered in mainland areas exist in stable island populations, which have the potential
to act as an “ark” in case of mainland population declines. Previous studies have found neutral genetic variation in such
species to be up to an order of magnitude lower in island compared to mainland populations. If low genetic variation is prevalent
across fitness-related loci, this would reduce the effectiveness of island populations as a source of individuals to supplement
declining mainland populations or re-establish extinct mainland populations. One such species, the black-footed rock-wallaby
(Petrogale lateralis lateralis), exists within fragmented mainland populations and small island populations off Western Australia. We examined sequence
variation in this species within a fitness-related locus under positive selection, the MHC class II DAB β1 locus. The mainland populations displayed greater levels of allelic diversity (4–7 alleles) than the island population,
despite being small and isolated, and contained at least two DAB gene copies. The island population displayed low allelic diversity (2 alleles) and fewer alleles per individual in comparison
to mainland populations, and probably possesses only one DAB gene copy. The patterns of DAB diversity suggested that the island population has a markedly lower level of genetic variation than the mainland populations,
in concordance with results from microsatellites (genotyped in a previous study), but preserved unique alleles which were
not found in mainland populations. Where possible, conservation actions should pool individuals from multiple populations,
not only island populations, for translocation programs, and focus on preventing further declines in mainland populations. 相似文献

Genotypes and toxin gene profiles of Staphylococcus aureus clinical isolates from China 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A total of 108 S. aureus isolates from 16 major hospitals located in 14 different provinces in China were characterized for the profiles of 18 staphylococcal enterotoxin (SE) genes, 3 exfoliatin genes (eta, etb and etd), and the toxic shock syndrome toxin gene (tsst) by PCR. The genomic diversity of each isolate was also evaluated by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE), multilocus sequence typing (MLST), and accessory gene regulator (agr) typing. Of these strains, 90.7% (98/108) harbored toxin genes, in which tsst was the most prevalent toxin gene (48.1%), followed by sea (44.4%), sek (42.6%) and seq (40.7%). The see and etb genes were not found in any of the isolates tested. Because of high-frequency transfer of toxin gene-containing mobile genetic elements between S. aureus strains, a total of 47 different toxin gene combinations were detected, including a complete egc cluster in 19 isolates, co-occurrence of sea, sek and seq in 38 strains, and sec and sel together in 11 strains. Genetic typing by PFGE grouped all the strains into 25 clusters based on 80% similarity. MLST revealed 25 sequence types (ST) which were assigned into 16 clonal complexes (CCs) including 2 new singletons. Among these, 11 new and 6 known STs were first reported in the S. aureus strains from China. Overall, the genotyping results showed high genetic diversity of the strains regardless of their geographical distributions, and no strong correlation between genetic background and toxin genotypes of the strains. For genotyping S. aureus, PFGE appears to be more discriminatory than MLST. However, toxin gene typing combined with PFGE or MLST could increase the discriminatory power of genotyping S. aureus strains. 相似文献
