Polymorphism analysis of DNA fragments flanked by (AG)9C and (GA)9C inverted dinucleotide microsatellite repeats in 766 animals of 19 cattle breeds and one breeding type revealed 66 fragments,
of which 64 were polymorphic. The breeds proved to differ in the frequency and presence or absence of amplified DNA fragments
at the genomic level, indicating that ISSR fingerprinting is informative for differentiating the PCR product spectra and cattle
breeds. Multilocus ISSR polymorphism analysis identified the group of fragments that can be used as Bos taurus and B. indicus species markers to describe the standards of breeds, their genetic profiles, and breed-specific patterns. Based on ISSR polymorphism,
a prototypal gene pool of cattle was constructed and the breeds closest to it were identified. Genetic diversity analysis
made it possible to assume that an optimal mean heterozygosity is characteristic of cattle breeds and that deviations from
this optimum are indicative of various processes occurring in the population (breed). 相似文献

The genetic variability in seven yak populations from the Sayan-Altai region and in F1 hybrids between yak and cattle (khainags) was investigated with the help of a technique that involves the use of inter simple sequence repeat (ISSR) markers generated with PCR primers (AG)9C and (GA)9C. Samples for the analysis were collected in Mongolia, Tuva, and Altai from 2008 through 2012. The examined yak populations differed in in the presence/absence of ISSR fragments, as well as in their frequency. In total, 46 ISSR fragments were identified using two marker systems; the proportion of polymorphic loci constituted 76% and 90% for the AG-ISSR and GA-ISSR markers, respectively. For the total sample of yaks, total genetic diversity (H t), within-population diversity (H s), and interpopulation diversity (G st) constituted 0.081, 0.044, and 0.459 for the AG-ISSR and 0.137, 0.057, and 0.582 for the GA-ISSR markers, respectively. Based on ISSR finger-printing, species- and breed-specific DNA patterns were described for the three groups of animals (yaks, cattle, khainags). For the domestic yak, the species-specific profile was represented by eight ISSR fragments. Genetic relationships between the yak populations, cattle breeds, and khainags were examined with the help of four different approaches used in the analysis of population structure: estimation of phylogenetic similarity, multidimensional scaling, principal component analysis, and cluster analysis. Clear evidence on the differentiation of the populations examined at the interspecific, as well as at intraspecific, level were obtained. Similar (relative), as well as remote (isolated), yak populations were identified. Khainags occupy an intermediate position between yak and cattle. However, the data on the ISSR-PCR marker polymorphism (genome polymorphism, population structure) indicate that part of the analyzed khainag genome was more similar to the yak genome than to the cattle genome. 相似文献

The informativeness of six different types of ISSR markers was compared in order to evaluate genetic diversity of Mongolian,
Buryat and Tuvinian horse breeds (Equus caballus). The dinucleotide-based ISSR primers ((GA)9C, (AG)9C, and (CA)9G) proved to be of little use to examine genetic polymorphism among horses due to the low number of amplified and polymorphic
fragments. The polymorphism information content (PIC) for the dinucleotide-based ISSR primers was 2.88 times lower than that
for trinucleotide-based ISSR markers. Among the trinucleotide-based ISSR markers, CAC ISSR marker was also found to be noninformative,
due to the low number of polymorphic loci identified. The highest values of the polymorphism information content (PIC) were
obtained for two types of ISSR markers, based on (GAG)6C (PIC, 3.61) and on (ACC)6G (PIC, 2.50). Thus, the results of the present study showed that GAG and ACC ISSR markers were most informative for evaluation
of genetic diversity among horses. 相似文献

Population structure and genetic diversity in the Portuguese native breeds of sheep Algarvia (AL), Badana (BA), Galega Bragançana (GB), Galega Mirandesa (GM), Mondegueira (MO) and Churra da Terra Quente (TQ), as well as the exotic Assaf (AS), were analyzed by typing 25 microsatellite markers in 210 individuals. The markers used exhibited high levels of polymorphism, with means for total and effective number of alleles per locus of 13.0 and 4.2, respectively, and an expected heterozygosity of 0.72 across loci. The mean number of alleles per locus and expected heterozygosity were highest in GM and GB, and lowest in AS. Exclusive alleles were found in 10 of the 25 markers analysed, mostly in the AS breed. The proportion of loci which were not in Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium in each breed ranged between 0.12 (GB) and 0.40 (AL and GM), mostly due to a lower than expected number of heterozygotes in those loci. All breeds showed a significant deficit in heterozygosity, which was more pronounced in GM (FIS = 0.113) and BA (FIS = 0.103), suggesting that inbreeding might be a major concern in these breeds. The analysis of relationships among breeds, assessed by different methods, indicates that AS and AL are the more distanced breeds relative to the others, while the closest relationships were observed between TQ with MO and GM with GB. The estimated FST indicates that only 0.049 of the total genetic variability can be attributed to differences among breeds, and this ratio dropped to 0.029 when only the native breeds were considered. The analysis of individual distances based on allele-sharing indicates that only AS and AL had a tendency for animals of the same breed to cluster together, while for the other breeds there was overlapping among breeds. The results of this study confirm that native breeds of sheep represent an important reservoir of genetic diversity, even though the level of differentiation among closely located breeds tends to be rather small. For several of the breeds analyzed, the levels of inbreeding currently observed cause some apprehension, and recommend the establishment of appropriate conservation strategies, aimed at minimizing inbreeding to avoid further losses of genetic diversity. 相似文献

Polymorphisms in the matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) gene have been hypothesized to be functional and may contribute to genetic susceptibility to cancers. The common sequence variation in MMP-9 ?1562 C>T (rs3918242), has been involved in cancer risk. However, results of the related published studies were somewhat controversial and underpowered in general. To clarify the role of MMP-9 ?1562 C>T genotype in global cancer, we performed a meta-analysis of all the available published studies involving 4,124 cancer patients and 4,728 control subjects. The overall results indicated that there was no major association of the variant on cancer risk. However, stratified analysis by cancer type showed that the MMP-9 ?1562 C>T polymorphism has a lower risk in colorectal cancer (OR?=?0.80, 95%CI?=?0.66?C0.96, P heterogeneity?=?0.391) and lung cancer (OR?=?0.70, 95%CI?=?0.51?C0.96, P heterogeneity?=?0.959) by allelic contrast. Furthermore, association of the MMP-9 ?1562 C>T polymorphism and cancer risk was also observed in hospital-based studies under the dominant genetic model (OR?=?0.87, 95%CI?=?0.78?C0.97, P heterogeneity?=?0.355), allelic contrast (OR?=?0.85, 95%CI?=?0.75?C0.96, P heterogeneity?=?0.271) and heterozygote comparison (OR?=?0.89, 95%CI?=?0.79?C0.99, P heterogeneity?=?0.402). This pooled analysis showed evidence that the MMP-9 ?1562 C>T polymorphism may decrease both the colorectal and lung cancer risk. Further prospective studies with larger numbers of participants worldwide are required to evaluate the association in more detail. 相似文献

The STAT5A/AvaI polymorphism was investigated with PCR-RFLP in a sample of 339 cattle belonging to four breeds: Italian Friesian, Jersey, Italian Brown, and Podolica reared in south Italy. All three possible genotypes for the C/T polymorphism were identified. In these breeds, PCR-RFLP showed the predominance of the TT genotype in Italian Brown and Jersey cows; in Podolica and Italian Friesian CT is the most frequent genotype. The frequency of the T allele ranged from 0.55 to 0.81 in the analyzed populations. The distribution of genotypic and allelic frequencies at this locus was significantly different among the four populations based on a χ2 test (P < 0.001), suggesting that the molecular characteristics of the STAT5A gene could be significantly affected by the breed selection. Gene heterozygosity, gene homozygosity, effective allele number, fixation index, and polymorphism information content (PIC) were calculated. The observed heterozygosity, as well as the N e and PIC values, indicates high genetic variability in the Podolica breed. Podolica could be considered an interesting reservoir of genetic diversity for a species under high selective pressure elsewhere. 相似文献

Genotyping of Kazakh camels Camelus dromedarius (milk breed) (n = 18) and Camelus bactrianus (meat breed) (n = 18) by alpha-S1-casein (αs1-CN) and kappa-casein (κ-CN) loci was conducted using the PCR–RFLP analysis method. A new pair of primers was suggested for the amplification of the CSN3 gene fragment with subsequent cleavage of the reaction products by AluI restriction endonuclease in order to identify the gene genetic variants. DNA polymorphism was detected only for the kappa-casein locus; no genetic polymorphism for alpha-S1-casein gene was found in the studied populations. Analysis of the results of DNA fingerprinting demonstrated that the band sharing (BS) coefficient between the groups was low enough (0.13), and the genetic distance (D) between Dromedary and Bactrian breeds was 0.305. The results of genotyping of Bactrian and Dromedary Kazakh camel breeds by alpha-S1-casein, kappa-casein loci, and DNA fingerprinting indicate that the Dromedary breed female camels are more polymorphic as compared with Bactrian. 相似文献

Sequence of the melanocortin 1 receptor (MC1R) gene (the Extension locus) was obtained from a panel of 73 animals belonging to 9 Italian sheep breeds or populations (Appenninica, Bergamasca, Comisana, Cornigliese-like, Delle Langhe, Massese, Merinizzata Italiana, Sarda and Valle del Belice) with different coat colours. Evaluation of the identified polymorphisms on this phenotype was reported with in silico predictions and comparative approaches within and across breeds and across species. Five novel single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), organized in three haplotypes, were detected. Another haplotype, including the two missense mutations already described for the ED allele, was identified in few Massese sheep. One SNP (c.199C > T) caused a predicted amino acid substitution (p.R67C) in a highly conserved position of the first intracellular loop of the MC1R protein. The same substitution causes recessive pheomelanism in other species. We propose that the p.67C allele represents the recessive e allele at the ovine Extension series that was, so far, not completely recognized in sheep by classical genetic studies. This polymorphism was analysed in a total of 388 sheep of the 9 investigated breeds. The p.67C allele was identified only in the Valle del Belice breed (allele frequency of 21.3% in 176 analysed animals of this breed) in which the presence of epistatic white-determining loci might mask, at least in part, its effects. Confirming the effect of this novel allele on coat colour will lead to new perspectives on the composition of specialized coloured sheep lines. 相似文献

Indigenous Chinese goat mtDNA is highly diverse but lacks geographic specificity; however, whether gene flow or gene exchange contributed to this remains unknown. We reanalyzed a consensus fragment of 481 bp in the D-loop region from 339 individuals. The network and neighbor-joining tree revealed three divergent maternal haplogroups (A, B1, and B2) in 17 local breeds. Although high polymorphism resulting in 198 different haplotypes was observed (h = 0.984 ± 0.002; π = 0.0336 ± 0.0008), neither the distribution of haplotypes nor PCA analysis revealed any obvious geographic structure in the local breeds. Extensive gene flow was widely detected among breeds from southwest China. High levels of gene exchange were detected between Qianbei Brown goats and the other breeds, indicating either more contribution or introgression to their gene pools. This study will be helpful in understanding the phylogeography and gene flow among the goat breeds of southwest China. 相似文献

Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) located at microRNA-binding sites (miR-SNPs) can affect the expression of genes. This study aimed to identify the miR-SNPs associated with litter size. Guanzhong (n = 321) and Boer (n = 191) goat breeds were used to detect SNPs in the caprine prolactin receptor (PRLR) gene by DNA sequencing, primer-introduced restriction analysis-polymerase chain reaction, and polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism. Three novel SNPs (g.151435C>T, g.151454A>G, and g.173057T>C) were identified in the caprine PRLR gene. Statistical results indicated that the g.151435C>T and g.173057T>C SNPs were significantly associated with litter size in Guanzhong and Boer goat breeds. Further analysis revealed that combinative genotype C6 (TTAACC) was better than the others for litter size in both goat breeds. Furthermore, the PRLR g.173057T>C polymorphism was predicted to regulate the binding activity of bta-miR-302a. Luciferase reporter gene assay confirmed that 173057C to T substitution disrupted the binding site for bta-miR-302a, resulting in the reduced levels of luciferase. Taken together, these findings suggested that bta-miR-302a can influence the expression of PRLR protein by binding with 3′untranslated region, resulting in that the g.173057T>C SNP had significant effects on litter size. 相似文献

Wallachian and Sumava sheep are autochthonous breeds that have undergone a significant bottleneck effect and subsequent restoration efforts. The first objective of this study was to evaluate the degree of genetic variability of both breeds and, therefore, the current management of the breeding. The second was to determine whether these two breeds still retain their genetic uniqueness in relation to each other and other breeds, despite regenerative interventions. Our data consisted of 48 individuals of Sumava and 37 individuals of Wallachian sheep. The comparison data contained 25 other breeds (primarily European) from the HapMap dataset generated by the International Sheep Genomics Consortium. When comparing all 27 breeds, the Czech breeds clustered with 15 other breeds and formed a single branch with them according to Nei's distances. At the same time, however, the clusters of both breeds were integral and easily distinguishable from the others when displayed with principal component analysis (PCA). Population substructure analysis did not show any common genetic ancestry of the Czech national breeds and breeds used for regeneration or, eventually, breeds whose ancestral population was used for regeneration. The average values of FST were higher in Wallachian sheep (FST = 0.14) than in Sumava sheep (FST = 0.08). The linkage disequilibrium (LD) extension per autosome was higher in Wallachian than in Sumava sheep. Consequently, the Ne estimates five generations ago were 68 for Sumava versus 34 for Wallachian sheep. Both native Czech breeds exhibit a wide range of inbreeding based on the excess of homozygosity (FHOM) among individuals, from ?0.04 to 0.16 in Sumava and from ?0.13 to 0.12 in Wallachian. Average inbreeding based on runs of homozygosity was 0.21 in Sumava and 0.27 in Wallachian. Most detected runs of homozygosity (ROH) were less than 5 Mb long for both breeds. ROH segments longer than 15 Mb were absent in Wallachian sheep. Concerning putative selection signatures, a total of 471 candidate genes in Wallachian sheep within 11 hotspots and 653 genes within 13 hotspots in Sumava sheep were identified. Czech breeds appear to be well differentiated from each other and other European breeds. Their genetic diversity is low, especially in the case of the Wallachian breed. Sumava is not so threatened by low diversity but has a larger share of the non-native gene pool. 相似文献

In the local breeds with small population size, one of the most important problems is the increase of inbreeding coefficient (F). High levels of inbreeding lead to reduced genetic diversity and inbreeding depression. The availability of high-density single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) arrays has facilitated the quantification of F by genomic markers in farm animals. Runs of homozygosity (ROH) are contiguous lengths of homozygous genotypes and represent an estimate of the degree of autozygosity at genome-wide level. The current study aims to quantify the genomic F derived from ROH (FROH) in three local dairy cattle breeds. FROH values were compared with F estimated from the genomic relationship matrix (FGRM), based on the difference between observed v. expected number of homozygous genotypes (FHOM) and the genomic homozygosity of individual i (FMOL i). The molecular coancestry coefficient (fMOL ij) between individuals i and j was also estimated. Individuals of Cinisara (71), Modicana (72) and Reggiana (168) were genotyped with the 50K v2 Illumina BeadChip. Genotypes from 96 animals of Italian Holstein cattle breed were also included in the analysis. We used a definition of ROH as tracts of homozygous genotypes that were >4 Mb. Among breeds, 3661 ROH were identified. Modicana showed the highest mean number of ROH per individual and the highest value of FROH, whereas Reggiana showed the lowest ones. Differences among breeds existed for the ROH lengths. The individuals of Italian Holstein showed high number of short ROH segments, related to ancient consanguinity. Similar results showed the Reggiana with some extreme animals with segments covering 400 Mb and more of genome. Modicana and Cinisara showed similar results between them with the total length of ROH characterized by the presence of large segments. High correlation was found between FHOM and FROH ranged from 0.83 in Reggiana to 0.95 in Cinisara and Modicana. The correlations among FROH and other estimated F coefficients were generally lower ranged from 0.45 (FMOL i−FROH) in Cinisara to 0.17 (FGRM−FROH) in Modicana. On the basis of our results, recent inbreeding was observed in local breeds, considering that 16 Mb segments are expected to present inbreeding up to three generations ago. Our results showed the necessity of implementing conservation programs to control the rise of inbreeding and coancestry in the three Italian local dairy cattle breeds. 相似文献

Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotyping tools, which can analyse thousands of SNPs covering the whole genome, have opened new opportunities to estimate the inbreeding level of animals directly using genome information. One of the most commonly used genomic inbreeding measures considers the proportion of the autosomal genome covered by runs of homozygosity (ROH), which are defined as continuous and uninterrupted chromosome portions showing homozygosity at all loci. In this study, we analysed the distribution of ROH in three commercial pig breeds (Italian Large White, n = 1968; Italian Duroc, n = 573; and Italian Landrace, n = 46) and four autochthonous breeds (Apulo-Calabrese, n = 90; Casertana, n = 90; Cinta Senese, n = 38; and Nero Siciliano, n = 48) raised in Italy, using SNP data generated from Illumina PorcineSNP60 BeadChip. We calculated ROH-based inbreeding coefficients (FROH) using ROH of different minimum length (1, 2, 4, 8, 16 Mbp) and compared them with several other genomic inbreeding coefficients (including the difference between observed and expected number of homozygous genotypes (FHOM)) and correlated all these genomic-based measures with the pedigree inbreeding coefficient (FPED) calculated for the pigs of some of these breeds. Autochthonous breeds had larger mean size of ROH than all three commercial breeds. FHOM was highly correlated (0.671 to 0.985) with FROH measures in all breeds. Apulo-Calabrese and Casertana had the highest FROH values considering all ROH minimum lengths (ranging from 0.273 to 0.189 and from 0.226 to 0.152, moving from ROH of minimum size of 1 Mbp (FROH1) to 16 Mbp (FROH16)), whereas the lowest FROH values were for Nero Siciliano (from 0.072 to 0.051) and Italian Large White (from 0.117 to 0.042). FROH decreased as the minimum length of ROH increased for all breeds. Italian Duroc had the highest correlations between all FROH measures and FPED (from 0.514 to 0.523) and between FHOM and FPED (0.485). Among all analysed breeds, Cinta Senese had the lowest correlation between FROH and FPED. This might be due to the imperfect measure of FPED, which, mainly in local breeds raised in extensive production systems, cannot consider a higher level of pedigree errors and a potential higher relatedness of the founder population. It appeared that ROH better captured inbreeding information in the analysed breeds and could complement pedigree-based inbreeding coefficients for the management of these genetic resources. 相似文献

The nutritional quality of beef relates to the fatty acid (FA) composition of bovine adipose tissue. Those molecular mechanisms that induce the differing amounts and composition of fat in cattle breeds according to age at maturity and purpose of production remain unclear. Therefore, this study investigated the composition of total FAs, adipocyte size, and expression of some key genes involved in several adipogenesis and lipogenesis pathways measured in distinct adipose tissue depots from bulls of the genetically diverse cattle breeds Aberdeen Angus (n = 9), Gascon (n = 10), Holstein (n = 9), and Fleckvieh (n = 10). The animals were finished under identical housing and feeding conditions until slaughter at a similar age of 17 months. After slaughter, cod adipose tissue (CAT), subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT), and M. longissimus lumborum (MLL) samples were collected. The saturated FA proportions were higher (P < .01) in CAT than in SAT across all breeds, whereas monounsaturated FA proportions were consistently higher (P < .001) in SAT compared to CAT and MLL. Aberdeen Angus bulls were distinguished from the other breeds in the proportions of mostly de novo synthesized C14:0, C16:0, C14:1n-5, C16:1n-7, and conjugated linoleic acid (P < .05). Adipocyte size decreased in the order CAT > SAT > MLL, and the largest adipocytes were observed in CAT of Holstein bulls (P < .05). Gene expression differences were more pronounced between adipose tissue depots than between breeds. The expression levels of ACACA, FASN, and SCD1 genes were related to tissue-specific, and to a lesser extent also breed-specific, differences in FA composition. 相似文献

The fifth instar larvae of the silkworm Bombyx mori L. were exposed to selected high temperatures (35 and 40 °C) in order to understand the changes in the level of catalase activity in the three tissues of fat body, midgut and haemolymph of the five selected bivoltine breeds and their 9 quantitative traits, namely larval weight, cocoon weight, shell weight, shell ratio, filament length, filament weight, denier, renditta and effective rearing rate (ERR), also the correlation between them under high temperature conditions were examined. Catalase activity resulting in fat body revealed a positive correlation between the control (28±1 °C) and 40±1 °C. The CSR2 breed showed the most level of thermotolerance and catalase activity, compared with the CSR4, JROP, NB4D2 and KA breeds. It was found that the level of catalase activity in fat body may be a reliable biochemical index to recognize thermotolerant breeds in order to develop resistant hybrids for tropical areas. 相似文献

Polymorphisms of KiSS-1 and GPR54 genes and their relationships with litter size in sheep 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The KiSS-1 and GPR54 genes were studied as candidate genes for the prolificacy in sheep. Four pairs of primers were designed to detect single nucleotide polymorphisms of exon 1 of KiSS-1 gene and exon 1, exon 2 and partial exon 5 of GPR54 gene in high fecundity breeds (Small Tail Han and Hu sheep) and low fecundity breeds (Dorset, Texel and Corriedale sheep) by PCR-SSCP. Polymorphisms in exon 1 of KiSS-1 gene were detected in prolific Small Tail Han sheep (AA, AB and BB genotypes) and Hu sheep (AA and CC genotypes), no polymorphism was found in low fecundity sheep breeds (only AA genotype). Polymorphisms in exon 2 of GPR54 gene were detected in prolific Hu sheep (DD and EE genotypes) and no polymorphism was found in prolific Small Tail Han sheep and low fecundity sheep breeds (only DD genotype). No polymorphism was detected in exon 1 and partial exon 5 of GPR54 gene in five sheep breeds. The polymorphic genotypes were sequenced. While compared the BB genotype with the AA genotype, one nucleotide mutation (G1035A) was detected, which resulted in amino acid change, Val25Met. Five nucleotide mutations were detected from AA to CC genotype (C981T, C996T, T997C, C1034G, C1039T), and among them four caused amino acid changes, that is, Arg7Trp, Phe12Leu, Asn24Lys, Ala26Val. While compared the EE genotype with the DD genotype, two nucleotide mutations (T2360C, A2411C) were detected, which gave rise to amino acid changes, Met90Thr and Asp107Ala, respectively. Genotype frequencies of AA, BB and AB were 0.62, 0.05 and 0.33 in Small Tail Han sheep, respectively. The Small Tail Han sheep ewes with genotype BB or AB had 0.88 (P?<?0.05) or 0.51 (P?<?0.05) lambs more than those with genotype AA; the Small Tail Han sheep ewes with genotype BB had 0.37 (P?>?0.05) lambs more than those with genotype AB. These results preliminarily indicated that the KiSS-1 gene may have some association with prolificacy in sheep. 相似文献

Polymorphisms of the CART gene were investigated by PCR-single-strand conformation polymorphism analysis in 540 samples from 10 goat breeds. Ten novel single-nucleotide polymorphisms as well as three microsatellites were detected; a mutation, 77T → C, led to an amino acid change (Leu → Ser). Associations between polymorphic loci and reproductive traits were analyzed in Chuandong White, Guizhou White and Gulin Ma breeds. Mutation at position 524 had no significant effect on litter size in these three goat breeds. The polymorphism 539C → A differed significantly among the three breeds (P < 0.05); C(7)T(8)/C(9)T(8) at 939 was associated with larger litter size (P < 0.05) than genotypes C(7)T(8)/C(7)T(8) and C(7)T(8)/C(8)T(8). No significant association of birth weight was found with gene variation (524C → T, 539C → A and 939 CnTn). These findings could be valuable for marker-assisted selection for goat breeding. 相似文献

Amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) analysis was conducted to investigate the level of polymorphism in four jute genotypes including two genotypes (JRC 321 and CMU 010) of Corchorus capsularis (the white jute) and two genotypes (JRO 524 and PPO4) of Corchorus olitorius (the tossa jute). Out of 1024 primer combinations that were tried, as many as 281 combinations of selective primers (13 EcoRI and 64 MseI) were selected, which produced a total of 9092 amplicons, including 752 (8.3%) polymorphic bands in C. capsularis and a total of 8856 amplicons including 1477 (16.7%) polymorphic bands in C. olitorius. The average number of bands/primer combination was 32.3 for C. capsularis and 31.5 for C. olitorius. For C. capsularis, highest polymorphism of 56.6% was shown by primer combination E35M50, while for C. olitorius highest polymorphism of 50% was shown by E41M91. In C. olitorius, 30–50% polymorphism was observed with 27 primer combinations, but in C. capsularis only 3 primer combinations gave this level of polymorphism. Similarly, in C. capsularis <10% polymorphism was detected by 115 primer combinations while in C. olitorius, <10% polymorphism was shown by only 56 primer combinations. These results indicate a higher level of polymorphism in C. olitorius relative to that in C. capsularis. The occurrence of such a large number of polymorphic AFLP markers will facilitate preparation of molecular maps and QTL analysis in jute. 相似文献

Carbonic anhydrase III (CA3) is an abundant muscle protein characteristic of adult type-1, slow-twitch, muscle fibres. In order to further understand the functions of the porcine CA3 protein in muscle, the temporal and spatial distributions of its gene product were analysed and the association between the presence of specific polymorphisms and carcass traits in the pig was also examined. Real-time PCR revealed that the CA3 mRNA expression showed no differences with age in skeletal muscles from Yorkshire pigs at postnatal day-1, month-2, and month-4. We provide the first evidence that CA3 is differentially expressed in the skeletal muscle of Yorkshire and Meishan pig breeds. In addition, the whole pig genomic DNA sequence of CA3 was investigated and shown to contain seven exons and six introns. Comparative sequencing of the gene from three pig breeds revealed the existence of microsatellite SJ160 in intron 5 and microsatellite SJ158 and a novel microsatellite marker that includes a tandem repeat of (TC)n in intron 4. We also determined the allele number and frequencies of the three loci in seven pig breeds and found that they are low polymorphic microsatellite markers. Statistical analysis showed that the CA3 microsatellite polymorphism was associated with dressing percentage, internal fat rate, carcass length, rib number and backfat thickness in the pig. 相似文献
