Validation of microsatellite markers for routine horse parentage testing

A parallel testing of 4803 routine Quarter Horse parentage cases, using 15 loci of blood group and protein polymorphisms (blood typing) and 11 loci of dinucleotide repeat microsatellites (DNA typing), validated DNA markers for horse pedigree verification. For the 26 loci, taken together, the theoretical effectiveness of detecting incorrect parentage was 99·999%, making it extremely unlikely that false parentage would fail to be recognized. The tests identified incorrect parentage assignment for 95 offspring (2% of cases). Despite fewer loci, DNA typing was as effective as blood typing and, in parentage exclusion cases, provided more systems to substantiate the genetic incompatibility. Five offspring presented potential genetic incompatibilities with their parents in only a single microsatellite system, but the parentage exclusions could not be confirmed with discordant results at additional loci. Two of these five incompatibilities could be explained as consequences of a null allele and three as fragment size increases or decreases (putative mutations). Provided that an exclusion assignment was based on at least two systems of genetic incompatibility, such rare genetic events did not lead to false exclusions. Notwithstanding the near 100% effectiveness estimations for either typing panel alone to identify incorrect parentage, this validation test showed an actual effectiveness of 97·3% for blood typing and 98·2% for DNA typing. The DNA-based test, however, may feasibly achieve higher efficacy than reported here by adding selected systems to the parentage test panel.     

A comparative genetic analysis of the Irish greyhound population using multilocus DNA fingerprinting, canine single locus minisatellites and canine microsatellites

Pairwise analysis of Hin fI/33·6 DNA fingerprints from a total of one hundred and fifty-three Irish greyhounds of known pedigree were used to determine band-share estimates of unrelated, first-degree and second-degree relationships. Forty-eight unrelated Irish greyhounds were used to determine allele frequencies for three single-locus minisatellites, and following a preliminary screen, eight of the most polymorphic tetra-nucleotide microsatellites from a panel of 15. The results indicated that both band-share estimates by DNA fingerprinting and microsatellite allele frequencies are highly effective in resolving parentage in this greyhound population, while single-locus minisatellites showed limited polymorphism and could not be used alone for routine parentage testing in this breed. The present study also demonstrated that, to obtain optimal resolution of parentage, sample sets of known pedigree status are required to determine the band-share distribution and/or microsatellite allele frequencies.     

Detection and characterization of SNPs useful for identity control and parentage testing in major European dairy breeds

We propose the use of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) instead of polymorphic microsatellite markers for individual identification and parentage control in cattle. To this end, we present an initial set of 37 SNP markers together with a gender-specific SNP for identity control and parentage testing in the Holstein, Fleckvieh and Braunvieh breeds. To obtain suitable SNPs, a total of 91.13 kb of random genomic DNA was screened yielding 531 SNPs. These, and 43 previously identified SNPs, were subjected to the following selection criteria: (1) the frequency of the minor allele must be larger than 0.1 in at least two of the three examined breeds, and (2) markers should not be linked closely. Allele frequencies were estimated by analysing sequencing traces of pooled DNA or by genotyping individual DNA samples. The selected SNP loci were physically mapped by radiation hybrid mapping or by fluorescence in situ hybridization, and tested against the neutral mutation hypothesis. The presented marker set theoretically allows probabilities of identity less than 10(-13) for individual verification and exclusion powers exceeding 99.99% for parentage testing.     

Microsatellite-based parentage control in cattle

As a new approach to parentage control we developed two multiplex coamplification polymerase chain reaction (PCR) systems containing a total of six different short tandem repeat (STR) loci; the microsatellite polymorphisms were visualized by automated fluorescence detection on the Applied Biosystems 373 DNA Sequencer with 672 Genescan Analysis software. Allele frequency data were determined from 238 animals. Thirty-five bovine parentage control cases not solvable by conventional blood typing could be solved.     

Genotyping‐free parentage assignment using RAD‐seq reads

Parentage assignment is defined as the identification of the true parents of one focal offspring among a list of candidates and has been commonly used in zoological, ecological, and agricultural studies. Although likelihood‐based parentage assignment is the preferred method in most cases, it requires genotyping a predefined set of DNA markers and providing their population allele frequencies. In the present study, we proposed an alternative method of parentage assignment that does not depend on genotype data and prior information of allele frequencies. Our method employs the restriction site‐associated DNA sequencing (RAD‐seq) reads for clustering into the overlapped RAD loci among the compared individuals, following which the likelihood ratio of parentage assignment could be directly calculated using two parameters—the genome heterozygosity and error rate of sequencing reads. This method was validated on one simulated and two real data sets with the accurate assignment of true parents to focal offspring. However, our method could not provide a statistical confidence to conclude that the first ranked candidate is a true parent.

Silent blood chimaerism in a mare confirmed by DNA marker analysis of hair bulbs

Microsatellite DNA markers in a mare's hair bulbs not concordant with markers in her blood confirmed the hypothesis of chimaerism which had been proposed to explain the apparent parentage exclusion of the mare from her suckling foal. Parentage analysis for this foal based on genetic markers not originating from blood cells of its dam supported a parentage verification conclusion.     

Parentage determination of mandarin fish (Siniperca chuatsi) based on microsatellite DNA markers

In this study, ten microsatellite loci were chosen to estimate the parentage of 260 progeny in five mandarin fish (Siniperca chuatsi) full-sib families. Simulation based on allele frequency date demonstrated the combined exclusion power would be over 97% if the number of loci was up to nine. Based on the information from these nine loci, 98% of progeny were unambiguously allocated to their putative parental pairs in the parentage analysis. The assignment success rate by the real data set was lower than that predicted by the simulations, with 94% of progeny assigned correctly. The discrepancies might be caused by a scoring error or allelic dropout caused by poor quality genomic DNA. Moreover, 69 progeny were selected randomly for the double-blind test, the result indicated that 95% of the progeny can be correctly assigned to their families. This study provided a microsatellite-based approach for parentage assignment in S. chuatsi, and that will be useful for investigation of genetic background and molecular marker-assisted selective breeding in this species.     

Use of DNA fingerprinting to determine parentage in muskrats (Ondatra zibethicus).

The detection of high levels of genetic variability by DNA fingerprinting probes has allowed researchers to accurately assess relatedness. Multiple-mating strategies are characteristic of the mating systems of small mammals. As such, techniques that provide an accurate indication of how individuals are related genetically is of great importance to assess the mating system of a species. In this study, we applied the DNA fingerprinting technique to captive and wild muskrats (Ondatra zibethicus) to determine its usefulness for parentage analysis in wild populations. We found that DNA digested with the restriction enzyme Hae III and probed with Jeffrey's minisatellite 33. 15 identified a large amount of polymorphism in both groups of muskrats. The DNA fingerprinting technique correctly assessed parentage within the captive group. In the wild population, paternity was assigned between two adult males based on diagnostic fragments and similarity of banding patterns. The likelihood that paternity could be misassigned to a full sibling was high in this free-ranging population. However, because natal dispersal in muskrats is male biased, it is unlikely that two brothers would associate with the same female.
