Summary The Brassica napus genome has been investigated by DNA fingerprinting with six synthetic oligonucleotide probes complementary to simple repetitive sequences, namely (GATA) 4, (GACA) 4, (GGAT) 4, (CA) 8, (CT) 8 and (GTG) 5. While all sequence motifs were found to be present in the B. napus genome, their organization and abundance varied considerably. Among the investigated probes, (GATA) 4 revealed the highest level of intraspecific polymorphism and distinguishes not only between cultivars but even between different individuals belonging to the same cultivar. In contrast, (GTG) 5, (GACA) 4 and (GGAT) 4 produced relatively homogeneous fingerprint patterns throughout different cultivars, while hybridization to (CT) 8 and (CA) 8 resulted in only a few weak bands superimposed on a smear. The isoschizomeric pair Hpa II and Msp I revealed the presence of methylated cytosines in the vicinity of (GATA) m repeats. The applicability of simple repetitive sequence polymorphisms as molecular markers for Brassica species is discussed. 相似文献

Some somaclonal variants derived from a landrace rice variety, Indrayani, were shown to be high yielding and resistant to
multiple diseases in previous analysis carried out in our laboratory. An attempt was made to assess the effect of culturing
and regeneration of rice plants on DNA variation at microsatellite loci in R 2 progeny of callus-derived rice plants. Different somaclones of the rice line Indrayani differing in yield and disease response
(high, low and no change in yield, as compared to the original genotype) were used as genetic material for these analyses.
Analysis of microsatellite loci was accomplished by digesting DNA from regenerated rice somaclones and assaying for polymorphisms
at microsatellite loci by in-gel hybridization with synthetic oligonucleotide probes such as (GATA) 4, (CAC) 5 and (TG) 10. Specific variation at a PCR-amplified locus containing three internal microsatellite repeats (1E 6) using restriction site fingerprinting was also investigated. The locus-specific amplification of a sequence-tagged microsatellite
marker followed by digestion with HinfI and Sau3AI restriction endonucleases showed differences in some somaclonal variants. The technique used in this study enables monitoring
of DNA changes in successive generations of somaclonal variants as a measure of DNA variability and possibly to identify the
regions which are responsible for specific traits.

A high level of genetic polymorphism was detected among Indian isolates of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae using hypervariable probes such as a microsatellite oligonucleotide, probe (TG) 10, a human minisatellite probe, pV47, an avirulence gene probe, avrXa10 and a repeat clone, pBS101. These DNA probes detected multiple loci in the bacterial genome generating complex DNA fingerprints
and differentiated all of the bacterial isolates. Analysis of fingerprints indicated that pV47, (TG) 10 and pBS101 have a lower probability of identical match than avrXa10 and therefore are potential probes for DNA fingerprinting and variability analysis of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae pathogen populations. Cluster analysis based on hybridization patterns using all of the above probes showed five
groups at 56% similarity. Studies on the methylation patterns of isolates representing the three important races of X. oryzae pv. oryzae indicated more methylation in the most virulent isolate, suggesting a possible role of methylation in pathogenicity.

Summary This paper describes the use of oligonucleotide probes to reveal highly polymorphic DNA regions in pomato. With a (GATA) 4 probe the level of polymorphism detected is high enough to identify all 15 tomato cultivars used in this study. Individual plants of one cultivar all showed the same cultivar-specific DNA-finger-print. In an F 2-population of self-fertilized cv. Sonatine, GATA-containing loci segregated in a Mendelian (31) fashion. Experiments with in-vitro propagated plant material showed that the DNA-fingerprints are not affected by tissue-culture procedures. This indicates that changes in the genetic integrity, which often accompany in-vitro propagation (somaclonal variation), are not extended to the DNA detected with the (GATA) 4 probe. The relative high stability and the Mendelian segregation of (GATA) 4-derived DNA-fingerprints make them ideally suited for identification of tomato cultivars. 相似文献

The abundance and polymorphism of 38 different simple-sequence repeat motifs was studied in four accessions of cultivated chickpea ( Cicer arietinum L.) by in-gel hybridization of synthetic oligonucleotides to genomic DNA digested with 14 different restriction enzymes. Among 38 probes tested, 35 yielded detectable hybridization signals. The abundance and level of polymorphism of the target sequences varied considerably. The probes fell into three broad categories: (1) probes yielding distinct, polymorphic banding patterns; (2) probes yielding distinct, monomorphic banding patterns, and (3) probes yielding blurred patterns, or diffused bands superimposed on a high in lane background. No obvious correlation existed between abundance, fingerprint quality, and the sequence characteristics of a particular motif. Digestion with methyl-sensitive enzymes revealed that simple-sequence motifs are enriched in highly methylated genomic regions. The high level of intraspecific polymorphism detected by oligonucleotide fingerprinting suggests the suitability of simple-sequence repeat probes as molecular markers for genome mapping. 相似文献

Summary The distribution and abundance of simple repetitive sequences complementary to the synthetic oligonucleotides (GACA) 4, (GATA) 4, (GTG) 5 and (CA) 8 in the genomes of several cultivars of Beta vulgaris and in the wild beet B. vulgaris ssp. maritima were investigated. Hybridization experiments revealed that all four motifs were present, though at different abundances, in the genomes of all of the investigated beet cultivars. Considerable intraspecific variation of the resulting DNA fingerprints was observed. The extent of polymorphism depends on the oligonucleotide probe. The most informative banding patterns were obtained with the (GATA) 4 probe hybridized to HinfI-, HaeIII-, or RsaI-restricted DNA, respectively. DNA fingerprinting with (GATA) 4 allowed a clear differentiation of double-haploid breeding lines (DH lines). We demonstrated that the application of oligonucleotide probes for DNA fingerprinting is a sensitive tool for genome diagnosis in cultivated beet. 相似文献

Establishing kinship relations in primates using modern molecular genetic techniques has enhanced the ability to scrutinize a number of fundamental biological issues. We screened 51 human short tandem repeats (STRs) for cross-species PCR amplification in rhesus macaques ( Macaca mulatta) and identified 11 polymorphic loci with heterozygosity rates of at least 0.6. These markers were used for paternity testing in three social groups (M, R, and S) of rhesus macaques from Cayo Santiago, Puerto Rico. Several consecutive birth cohorts were analyzed in which approximately 200 males were tested for paternity against more than 100 mother/infant pairs. Despite a combined exclusion rate of more than 99.9% in all three groups, some cases could not be solved unequivocally with the STR markers and additional testing of the MHC-associated DQB1 polymorphism. A final decision became possible through multilocus DNA fingerprinting with one or more of the oligonucleotide probes (GATA) 4, (CA) 8, and (CAC) 5. Paternity assessment by multilocus DNA analysis with probe (CAC) 5 alone was found to have limitations in rhesus macaques as regards the number of potential sires which might be involved in a given case. Multilocus DNA fingerprinting requires large amounts of DNA, and the ensuing autoradiographic patterns present difficulties in comparisons across gels and even within the same gel across remote lanes. Computer-assisted image analysis was incapable of eliminating this problem. Therefore, a dual approach to DNA typing has been adopted, using STR markers to reduce the number of potential sires to a level where all remaining candidates can be tested by multilocus DNA fingerprinting on a single gel, preferably in lanes adjacent to the mother/infant pair.

Molecular markers [random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) and restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP)] were used to determine the frequency of DNA polymorphism in grain sorghum ( Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench). Twenty-nine oligonucleotide primers were employed for RAPDs, generating a total of 262 DNA fragments, of which 145 were polymorphic in at least one pairwise comparison between 36 genotypes. Individual primers differed significantly in their ability to detect genetic polymorphism in the species. The overall frequency of polymorphisms was low with a mean frequency of 0.117 polymorphisms per RAPD band being obtained from all pairwise comparisons between genotypes, with maximum and minimum values of 0.212 and 0.039, respectively. Results from phenetic analysis of bandsharing data were consistent with current sub-specific groupings of the species, with clusters of Durra, Zerazera, Caud-Nig, Caud-Kaura and Caffrorum being discernible. The results also indicated that individuals of a similar taxonomic grouping but different geographic origin may be genetically less identical than previously considered. Similar frequencies of polymorphism to that obtained with RAPDs were obtained with RFLPs. Results from these experiments indicated that a high level of genetic uniformity exists within S. bicolor. 相似文献

Aberrant methylation of promoter CpG islands is causally linked with a number of inherited syndromes and most sporadic cancers, and may provide valuable diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers. In this report, we describe an approach to simultaneous analysis of multiple CpG islands, where methylation-specific oligonucleotide probes are joined by ligation and subsequently amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) when hybridized in juxtaposition on bisulfite-treated DNA. Specificity of the ligation reaction is achieved by (i) using probes containing CpGpCpG (for methylated sequences) or CpApCpA (for unmethylated sequences) at the 3′ ends, (ii) including three or more probes for each target, and (iii) using a thermostable DNA ligase. The external probes carry universal tails to allow amplification of multiple ligation products using a common primer pair. As proof-of-principle applications, we established duplex assays to examine the FMR1 promoter in individuals with fragile-X syndrome and the SNRPN promoter in individuals with Prader-Willi syndrome or Angelman syndrome, and a multiplex assay to simultaneously detect hypermethylation of seven genes ( ID4, APC, RASSF1A, CDH1, ESR1, HIN1 and TWIST1) in breast cancer cell lines and tissues. These data show that ligation of oligonucleotide probes hybridized to bisulfite-treated DNA is a simple and cost-effective approach to analysis of CpG methylation. 相似文献

Animal sex chromosome evolution has started on different occasions with a homologous pair of autosomes leading to morphologically differentiated gonosomes. In contrast to other vertebrate classes, among fishes cytologically demonstrable sex chromosomes are rare. In reptiles, certain motifs of simple tandemly repeated DNA sequences like (gata) n/(gaca) m are associated with the constitutive heterochromatin of sex chromosomes. In this study a panel of simple repetitive sequence probes was hybridized to restriction enzyme digested genomic DNA of poeciliid fishes. Apparent male heterogamety previously established by genetic experiments in Poecilia reticulata (guppy) was correlated with male-specific hybridization using the (GACA) 4 probe. The (GATA) 4 oligonucleotide identifies certain male guppies by a Y chromosomal polymorphism in the outbred population. In contrast none of the genetically defined heterogametic situations in Xiphophorus could be verified consistently using the collection of simple repetitive sequence probes. Only individuals from particular populations produced sex-specific patterns of hybridization with (GATA) 4. Additional poeciliid species ( P. sphenops, P. velifera) harbour different sex-specifically organized simple repeat motifs. The observed sex-specific hybridization patterns were substantiated by banding analyses of the karyotypes and by in situ hybridization using the (GACA) 4 probe.by E.R.

DNA methylation is an important epigenetic mechanism involved in gene regulation under environmental stresses in plants. However, little information is available regarding its responses to high temperature (HT) and association with HT tolerance in rice. In this study, fourteen rice genotypes were classified into the susceptible, moderate, and tolerant groups by the high temperature susceptibility index (HTSI) after HT treatment. The changes of DNA methylation in rice anthesis under normal and HT30 conditions were investigated using methylation-sensitive amplified polymorphism31 (MSAP). The MSAP results showed that the DNA methylation level significantly increased in the susceptible rice group and decreased in the tolerant rice group under HT treatment, while no significant difference was observed in the moderate rice group. More hypomethylation events were detected in the tolerant rice group, while more hypermethylation was detected in the susceptible rice group. Forty-four differentially methylated epiloci (DME) were generated under both control and HT conditions, which can clearly distinguish the susceptible, moderate, and tolerant genotypes via PCoA analysis. Approximately 43.18% of DMEs were determined to be tolerance-associated epiloci (TAEs). 63.15% TAEs were sequenced and annotated into 12 genes. Quantitative RT-PCR analysis showed that 12 TAE genes were mainly upregulated in 14 rice genotypes, and their expression levels were related to the HT tolerance of rice. Here, DEGs, generated from a number of genotypes, indicate higher probabilities for association with stress tolerance. Overall, these results suggest that DNA methylation regulation might play a key role in adaptation to HT stress in rice. 相似文献

The ability of oligonucleotide probes containing short repetitive sequence motifs to differentiate between isolates of Helicobacter pylori was investigated. Genomic DNA preparations from H. pylori were digested with the restriction enzyme Hind III, electrophoresed in agarose gels and transferred to nylon filters. Five separate oligonucleotide probes were tested for hybridization sequentially to fingerprint the digested DNA from a panel of 29 clinical isolates and one type strain of H. pylori , and their relative discriminatory abilities were assessed. Four probes, (GACA) 4, (GT) 8, (GTG) 5 and (GGAT) 4, were each shown to yield highly informative hybridization band profiles allowing differentiation of H. pylori isolates. The DNA fingerprints of individual isolates obtained with each probe were distinct and reproducible. Direct comparison with ribotyping revealed that oligonucleotide fingerprinting had far superior discriminatory power. Computer-assisted similarity analysis of (GGAT) 4-generated hybridization profiles of pairwise combinations of H. pylori isolates revealed that there was no correlation between ribotype and oligonucleotide fingerprint patterns. The results of this study demonstrate that oligonucleotide probes containing microsatellite sequences provide a new and powerful tool for isolate discrimination of H. pylori . 相似文献

Summary DNA fingerprinting with two minisatellite (33.15, M13) and two simple repeat probes [(GACA) 4, (CAC) 4/ (GTG) 5] was performed to screen for somatic changes in the DNA from various solid human tumours in comparison with constitutional DNA from the same patient. Loss of bands or changes in band intensitities were observed. Together the probes 33.15 and (CAC) 5/(GTG) 5 detected deviating fingerprint patterns in 63% of the colorectal carcinomas investigated. In mammary and stomach carcinomas, only 1/11 and 2/11 tumours, respectively, showed differences with either of the three probes, 33.15, (GACA) 4 and (CAC) 5/(GTG) 5. 相似文献

Background The microsatellite, (GATA) n has been frequently used for DNA fingerprinting. However, very few attempts have been made to analyze (GATA) n-containing loci in rice. Results Three polymorphic (GATA) n-harboring loci viz. OS1A6, OS1H10 and OS2E7, containing 7–13 repeat motifs were identified from a genomic library of a cultivated rice, Oryza sativa var. Basmati-370 using oligonucleotide probe (GATA) 4. When (GATA) n flanking primers were used to screen 26 wilds (representing different genomes of rice), 16 cultivars, 47 Indian elite rice varieties and 37 lines resistant/susceptible to bacterial blight, up to 22 alleles were obtained at an individual locus. Also, interestingly the bacterial blight resistant lines clustered into a separate group from the remaining rice genotypes, when a dendrogram was constructed based on the polymorphism obtained at the three loci. This may be due to the partial homology of the clones OS1H10 and OS2E7 to regions encoding O. longistaminata receptor kinase-like protein and pathogenesis-related protein. The ability of these O. sativa flanking primers to amplify DNA of maize, wheat, barley and oat indicates that these (GATA) n-containing loci are conserved across different cereal genera. Conclusions The large allele number obtained reveals the potential of (GATA) n-containing loci as powerful tools to detect simple sequence length polymorphism (SSLP). The (GATA) n-flanking primers were not only useful in distinguishing between closely related genotypes, but could also be used for cross-species amplification and are also conserved across different cereal genera. These loci could also cluster the bacterial blight resistant/susceptible lines into different groups based on the resistance genes present in them. 相似文献

Summary DNA fingerprints were generated from various human somatic tissues and from peripheral blood of 179 children and their 80 parents using (CAC) 5/(GTG) 5 oligonucleotide probes. Whereas somatic stability of the fingerprint patterns was demonstrated, the average rate for germline mutations was estimated to be approximately 0.001 per DNA locus and gamete, with the three different restriction enzymes used. Seven out of eight mutations observed appeared to be of paternal origin. 相似文献

New rice lines, restorer line RB207 and maintainer line Yewei B, with better agronomic traits were separately developed from
variant progeny of R207 (rice restorer line) and V20B (rice maintainer line) through transformation of genomic DNA of Echinochloa crusgalli (C 4 plant) and Oryza minuta, respectively. The phenotypes of the variant lines were apparently different from those of the receptors. Yewei B had stronger
tolerance to high temperature than did V20B. The number of spikelets per panicle and the 1000-grain weight of RB207 increased
by 40% over those of R207. The results of amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) analysis indicated that the polymorphism
rates were both 4.4% between genomes of the variant lines and their receptors. Results demonstrated that special DNA segments
from E. crusgalli and O. minuta might integrate into the genome of cultivated rice and could be stably passed on. The study further shows that transformation
of genomic DNA of distant relatives is an effective approach for creating new rice germ plasm.

Using multilocus DNA fingerprinting with microsatellite probes (CAC) 5, (GACA) 4, (GGCA) 4, and (GATA) 4, intraspecific variation of the Southeast Asian lizards belonging to the genus Leiolepis (bisexual species Leiolepis reevesii and triploid parthenogenetic species Leiolepis guentherpetersi) was first examined. The L. guentherpetersi lizards were characterized by monophyletic DNA fingerprint profiles for the loci detected by the (GACA) 4, (GGCA) 4, and (CAC) 5 probes, in terms of intrapopulation similarity index constituting S = 0.96. This was different from the individual-specific profiles of the lizards from bisexual, presumably parental species, L. reevesii ( S = 0.6; P < 0.001). Genetic homogeneity of triploid L. guentherpetersi lizards at the loci examined serves as one of the arguments for the parthenogenetic nature of this species. Genetic variability of triploid parthenogenetic species L. guentherpetersi appeared to be comparable with that reported earlier for the Caucasian rock lizards of the genus Darevskia, namely, D. dahli, D. armeniaca, and D. unisexualis ( P > 0.05). The results of DNA fingerprinting analysis of the same L. guentherpetersi samples with the (GATA) 4 hybridization probe were unexpected. Variability of parthenogenetic species L. guentherpetersi at the (GATA) n markers was remarkably higher than that at other DNA markers ( S = 0.35; P = 3.08 × 10 ?11), being comparable to the variation of the (GATA) n DNA markers in bisexual species L. reevesii ( P = 0.74). The reasons for high polymorphism of the (GATA) n-containing loci in L. guentherpetersi still remain unclear. This polymorhism is probably associated with high instability of the loci, which can be revealed by means of family analysis of parthenogenetic offspring. 相似文献

We examined genetic diversity and relationships among 24 cultivated and wild Amaranthus accessions using the total low-Cot DNA and five individual repetitive sequences as probes. These low-Cot DNA probes were
obtained by the isolation of various classes of repetitive-DNA sequences, including satellites, minisatellites, microsatellites,
rDNA, retrotransposon-like sequences, and other unidentified novel repetitive sequences. DNA fingerprints generated by different
types of repetitive-DNA probes revealed different levels of polymorphism in the Amaranthus genomes. A repetitive sequence containing microsatellites was found to be a suitable probe for characterizing intraspecific
accessions, whereas more conservative sequences (e.g. rDNA) were informative for resolving phylogenetic relationships among
distantly related species.Genetic diversity, measured as restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) and the similarity
index at the low-Cot DNA level, was equally high among intraspecific accessions between the two species groups: grain amaranths
( A. caudatus, A. cruentus, and A. hypochondriacus) and their putative wild progenitors ( A.
hybridus, A. powellii, and A. quitensis). At the interspecific level, however, the grain amaranth species are less divergent from each other than their wild progenitors.
With the rare exceptions of certain A. caudatus accessions, grain amaranths were found to be closely related to A. hybridus. The results based on low-Cot DNA were comparable with previous RAPD and isozyme studies of the same set of species/accessions
of Amaranthus, indicating that low-Cot DNA sequences are suitable probes for a fingerprinting analysis of plant germplasm diversity and
for determining phylogenetic relationships.

Genetic variability in six host genotype-specific pathotypes of pearl millet downy mildew pathogen S. graminicola was studied at the molecular level using mini- and micro-satellites. Our results indicated that microsatellites (GAA) 6, (GACA) 4, and especially (GATA) 4 were quite informative and showed high levels of polymorphism among the pathotypes. The six pathotypes could be classified into five groups based on the cluster analysis of their genetic similarities, thereby confirming the existence of distinct host genotype-specific virulence in S. graminicola pathotypes. We demonstrate, for the first time, the use of DNA fingerprinting to detect genetic variation in downy mildew fungus of pearl millet. 相似文献
