利用SSR标记分析玉米轮回选择群体的遗传多样性

利用SSR标记技术分析了玉米基础群体DC0及其选择两轮后的群体HSC2和MSC2以及基础群体XFC0和其选择一轮后的群体XFC1的遗传多样性。结果表明：49对引物在5个玉米群体中共扩增出185个等位位点,每个SSR座位的等位基因数目为1～7个,平均为3．8个;基础群体多态性位点总数和多态性位点比例比其改良群体的略高;DC0、HSC2和MSC2 3个群体的基因平均杂合度相似,XFC0与XFC1的基因平均杂合度相似;基础群体与改良群体的平均遗传距离也相似;累加各引物扩增的基因型种类,改良群体的基因型种类偏少,但这些差异均不显著。以上结果说明轮回选择的基础群体与其改良后群体的遗传变异相似,轮回选择可以保持群体的遗传变异范围,改变群体的遗传组成,增加群体内个体间的异质性。     

真鲷野生群体和人工繁殖群体的同酶遗传差异

采用水平淀粉凝胶电泳技术对采集于黄海海州湾海域的真鲷野生群体和经过 2代人工繁育的养殖群体进行了同工酶遗传变异研究。分析检测了 2个群体各 50个样本肌肉和肝脏组织的 1 3种同工酶共 2 0个基因位点 ,其中MDH_a、GPI、PGM等 1 0个位点为多态位点 ,ME和EST_b为变异程度比较高的位点。野生群体和人工繁殖群体的多态位点比例分别为 45%和 2 5% (P0 .95) ;群体平均观察杂合度分别为 0 .1 41± 0 .0 4 4和 0 .0 95± 0 .0 4 3。结果表明 ,真鲷的野生群体和养殖群体拥有较高程度的遗传变异水平 ,但是养殖群体的遗传变异水平比野生群体有一定程度的降低。养殖群体遗传变异水平的降低在一定程度上是由于亲鱼数量少所致。比较了同工酶分析和RAPD分析的结果。将此两种技术相结合在鱼类群体遗传多样性分析中具有比较实际的意义。     

汩罗江与柳江鳤鱼线粒体细胞色素b基因的遗传变异初探

测定并分析了长江水系汨罗江4尾鳤鱼(Ochetobius elongates)和珠江水系柳江2尾鳤鱼的线粒体细胞色素b基因部分序列981bp,发现6个单倍型,其中19个变异位点,简约信息位点15个;AT含量和GC含量分别为57.6%和42.4%。在基于Kimura双参数模型的邻接树上,汩罗江和柳江鳤鱼各自聚群。汨罗江4尾鳤鱼间的遗传距离为0.001～0.007,柳江2尾鳤鱼间遗传距离为0.001,而2群体间的平均遗传距离为0.015(0.013～0.017),群体间的遗传变异大于群体内的遗传变异,表明汩罗江鳤鱼与柳江鳤鱼出现较明显的遗传分化。由于本研究采集地理群体少,分析的样本小,为更好地揭示长江和珠江水系鳤鱼的遗传变异,上述结论尚需进一步分析更多大样本的地理群体加以验证。     

东北大口鲇2个群体的微卫星DNA多态分析

利用磁珠富集法克隆制备的24个大口鲇（Silurus meriaionalis Chen）微卫星标记,对黑龙江野生群体与松花江养殖群体2个东北大口鲇（S．soldatovi）的地理种群的等位基因频率（P）、观测杂合度（Ho）、期望杂合度（He）、多态信息含量（PIC）和有效等位基因数（Ne）等进行了遗传检测,以遗传偏离指数（d）检验Hardy—Weinberg平衡,并以Nei氏遗传分化系数（GST）和AMOVA分析（ФST）群体遗传变异的来源。同时,使用PHYLIP3．63软件绘制基于Nei氏遗传距离的个体间UPGMA系统树。结果表明：24个微卫星标记在东北大口鲇的2个群体中共扩增出1357条多态性片段,片段长度为1024385bp,总体平均等位基因8．875个,可以用于东北大口鲇遗传多样性的评估。并发现8个可区分这2个种群的遗传标记;黑龙江群体的P、Ho、He、PIC和Ne依次为0．165、0．435、0．758、0．742和5．019,松花江群体为0．147、0．299、0．847、0．764和5．944,在这些多样性参数上,方差分析也显示2地理种群差异不显著,在大多数位点并无显著差异,仅HLJcf37位点具有显著差异：在多个位点偏离Hardy—Weinberg平衡,2群体呈现不同程度的杂合体过度,纯合体完全缺失现象,其原因有待证实;群体遗传变异分析证实2群体间遗传分化较弱,其98％以上的变异是由群体内个体间的遗传变异引起的,群体间的变异对总变异影响不显著。UPGMA系统树也显示出个体间遗传距离小,亲缘关系很近。结果表明,人工繁殖没有对东北大口鲇的遗传多样性产生影响,该种群遗传分化小,种质资源状况良好。     

中国红原鸡和泰国红原鸡遗传多样性分析

利用29个微卫星DNA标记对来自中国的红原鸡Gallus gallus spadiceus亚种和来自泰国的红原鸡Gallus gallus gallus亚种进行遗传多样性分析, 评估亚种内的遗传变异和亚种间的遗传分化, 结果表明: 共检测到168个等位基因, 每个位点的等位基因数从2到13不等, 所有位点平均的期望杂合度和PIC值分别为0.5780和0.53。中国和泰国红原鸡29个微卫星位点平均有效等位基因数分别为3.79和4.79, 平均基因杂合度为0.5379和0.6385, 两个红原鸡亚种均表现出较高的群体杂合度和丰富的遗传多样性。群体分化系数为19.4%(P<0.01), 两个红原鸡亚种间的Reynolds’遗传距离和Nm值分别为0.157和1.040。由此可见, Gallus gallus spadiceus亚种和Gallus gallus gallus亚种群体具有不同的群体遗传结构, 群体之间存在明显的遗传分化, 并不能将其认定为是同一亚种, 这也为中国家鸡具有独立的起源提供了一定的佐证。

内蒙古亚洲小车蝗种群遗传多样性的微卫星分析

亚洲小车蝗Oedaleus asiaticus Bei-Bienko是我国北方草原和农牧交错区主要的害虫之一。为了从分子水平评价内蒙古地区亚洲小车蝗种群的遗传多样性和种群间遗传分化, 本文采用8对微卫星引物对内蒙古15个地点的亚洲小车蝗种群进行遗传多样性分析。结果表明： 各位点有效等位基因数为3.4517~13.2881, 多态信息含量值为0.5601~0.8563, Shannon氏多样性指数在0.7018~4.1789之间。15个种群的平均期望杂合度为0.6836, Nei氏期望杂合度为0.5303~0.6513, 群体遗传距离为0.1092~0.4235, 群体分化率Fst平均值为0.1612, 基因流Nm平均值为1.6164。8个微卫星位点均具有较高的多态性, 各种群间的遗传分化水平较大, 基因交流程度中等, 个体间的遗传变异大于种群间的遗传变异。15个不同地点的亚洲小车蝗种群根据遗传距离共聚为6支。种群间遗传分化与地理距离呈正相关关系。高山和沙漠对不同地区亚洲小车蝗种群的迁移具有阻碍作用, 可能是形成遗传分化的主要原因。研究结果从分子水平探索不同地区亚洲小车蝗种群间的内在联系, 为制定亚洲小车蝗的综合治理策略提供了分子生物学的基础资料。     

欧洲中部刺槐种源群体等位酶变异研究

从欧洲中部及美国收集了18个刺槐种源种子,以2年生苗木为材料,采用水平切片淀粉凝胶电泳和聚丙烯酰胺凝胶电泳对11个酶系统进行了检测,共发现20个酶位点,其中14个为多态位点,多态性位点百分数为70％。在参加计算的7个酶系统的12个多态性位点中,平均每个位点的等位基因数(A)和平均每位点等位基因有效数(Ae)为2.733和1．794,平均每个位点的实际杂合度(Ho)和预期杂合度(He)为0．368和0．400,固定指数(F)为0．080,绝大多数位点固定指数为正值。各基因位点遗传参数与12个位点平均值进行相关分析表明,Fe-6和Lap-a的大部分群体遗传参数(A、Ae、Ho、He等)与平均值存在紧密的相关关系,其他位点各项遗传参数和总平均值相关不明显,这些位点的重要性可能比相关性较好的位点更大。德国8个种源群体间遗传距离变化在0．09-0．26之间,来自匈牙利的6个种源之间遗传距离很小,绝大部分均在0．11以下;德国的8个种源与匈牙利和斯洛伐克的8个种源之间的遗传距离变化在0．09-0．24之间;来自美国的2个种源,与欧洲的种源间的遗传距离在0．09-0．23之间,这一距离没有超出欧洲种源之间的差异。匈牙利和斯洛伐克的8个种源群体的各项遗传参数均高于德国种源,表明这两个国家的遗传多样性水平较高。同时来自这两个国家的种源群体间变异系数变化在2．92％-9．97％,说明群体之间的遗传差别很小。德国的8个种源群体各项遗传参数相对较低,但群体间变异系数较高,群体间遗传差别较大。以各个国家为群体单位,4个群体间各项遗传参数的变异均较小,变异系数变化在3．861％-5．139％,表明刺槐种源间地理变异模式不明显。     

微卫星标记分析中国梨木虱种群的遗传多样性

中国梨木虱Cacopsylla chinensis (Yang et Li)是梨树主要害虫之一。为了从分子水平评估中国梨木虱种群内的遗传变异和种群间的遗传分化, 本文应用7对微卫星DNA引物对中国16个地区中国梨木虱种群进行遗传多样性分析。结果表明： 各位点有效等位基因为2.2927～10.0610, 多态信息含量(PIC)值在0.5073～0.8735之间。16个种群的平均期望杂合度为0.7876, 遗传距离在0.0951～1.0139之间, Nei氏期望杂合度为0.4771～0.7892, Shannon信息指数在0.8396～1.9989之间, 群体分化率F_ST为11.61%, 基因流平均值为2.2236。结果表明, 7个微卫星位点均具有较高的多态性, 各种群间的遗传分化水平较低, 基因交流程度较高, 遗传变异主要存在于种群内的个体间。研究结果为制定针对中国梨木虱的有效防治策略提供部分分子生物学的基础资料。     

广西本地鲢和长丰鲢群体遗传多样性分析

本研究采用32个微卫星标记分析广西本地鲢和长丰鲢两个群体的遗传差异,计算并统计其微卫星遗传参数。结果显示:32个微卫星标记广西本地鲢鱼和长丰鲢群体共检测到等位基因119个,其中两群体所共有为88个;平均观测等位基因数为2.937 5和3.406 2;平均有效等位基因数为1.787 3和2.074 7;多态信息含量(PIC)在0～0.727 1和0～0.748 4之间,平均值为0.293 6和0.360 0,表明两个群体的遗传多样性均不高。两群体平均观测杂合度为0.373 9和0.559 7,平均期望杂合度为0.327 1和0.413 3,均表现为本地鲢群体低于长丰鲢群体,说明两个群体的均不高,并且广西本地鲢群体的遗传多样性低于长丰鲢群体;两个鲢鱼群体间的遗传距离和遗传相似系数分别为0.297 7和0.742 5,表明两个鲢鱼群体间的遗传差异不大。两个群体的遗传分化系数(Fst)在不同微卫星位点间差异明显,平均0.171 7。本研究为广西地方鱼类种质资源保护和利用提供了理论依据。     

Microsatellite DNA polymorphism of Japanese sea bass (Laterolabrax japonicus) inhabiting Chinese and Japanese coasts

Twenty‐two microsatellite DNA markers were developed for Japanese sea bass (Laterolabrax japonicus), of which 19 were independent from each other and at Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium across the three populations of Japanese sea bass inhabiting Chinese coasts (defined as China group) and the five populations inhabiting Japanese coasts (defined as Japan group). These 19 markers were used to determine the number of alleles and the expected heterozygosity across the eight populations. The majority of individuals (93.8–98.8%) of the three populations of the pre‐defined China group were assigned to an inferred cluster, and 90.9–94.6% of the individuals of the five populations of the pre‐defined Japan group were assigned to the other. The average number of alleles across the 19 loci was significantly lower in the China group than in the Japan group (10.3 vs 15.4), however, the average expected heterozygosity across the 19 loci of the China group was similar to that of the Japan group (0.743 vs 0.750). An effective population size reduction (i.e. bottleneck effect) was detected in the China group (P = 0.00357), which may have resulted from either over‐catching or glaciations or both. The pairwise F_ST among populations of the China group (0.019–0.029) and among populations of the Japan group (0.003–0.021) were lower than those between the populations of the China group and the populations of the Japan group (0.076–0.101). The average pair‐wise F_ST between the populations of the China group and those of the Japan group reached 0.075, and the variation between the China group and the Japan group accounted for 7.16% of the total. Nei’s original measures of genetic distances among the populations of the China group and the Japan group ranged from 0.123 to 0.145 and from 0.055 to 0.123, respectively, while that between the populations of the China group and the populations of the Japan group ranged from 0.326 to 0.450. Japanese sea bass is able to disperse over a long distance; however, our observations demonstrated that it cannot migrate across a possible barrier existing between Chinese and Japanese coasts. Most individuals of the Zhoushan population of the China group were assigned to two inferred clusters, and most individuals of Ariake Sea, Tokyo Bay and Ishikawa populations of the Japan group were assigned to three inferred clusters, indicating that these locations were the gathering grounds of Japanese sea bass.     

Genetic diversity of north-east Asian cattle based on microsatellite data

In order to assess the genetic variability and population structure of north-east Asian cattle, 13 microsatellite loci were analysed for a total of 200 individuals including Korean, Chinese, Japanese Black and European Holstein cattle. Observed and expected heterozygosity, two estimators (F(ST) and G(ST)) of gene differentiation, and Nei's DA distance were evaluated. Based on expected mean heterozygosity, the lowest genetic diversity was exhibited in Japanese Black cattle (H(E)=0.471), and the highest in Chinese cattle (H(E)=0.744). Korean cattle revealed a relatively high degree of genetic diversity (H(E)=0.728). Average proportion of genetic variation because of interpopulation subdivision among north-east Asian cattle varied between 10.9 and 9.9%, depending on the estimator used. N-J tree based on Nei's DA genetic distance showed that Korean and Chinese cattle are closely related, whereas Japanese Black cattle are clearly distinct from the other two populations, forming a north-east Asian outgroup.     

海南岛红树植物海桑遗传多样性的ISSR分析

海桑 (Sonneratia caseolaris)是海桑科红树植物 ,在我国仅天然分布于海南万宁、琼海、文昌等地。采用 ISSR分子标记技术对所有天然种群和海南东寨港红树林自然保护区引种的人工种群共 4个种群 86个个体进行了遗传变异分析。 11个引物共扩增出 2 39条带 ,其中 194条具多态性 ,多态位点百分率为 81.17%。在种群水平上多态位点百分率 4 0 .5 9%～ 5 0 .2 1% ,平均值为4 5 .71%。 Nei的基因多样性、Shannon信息指数在物种水平上分别为 0 .2 10 0和 0 .32 5 6 ,在种群水平上平均值分别为 0 .14 6 8和0 .2 2 10。 Nei的遗传分化系数 Gst和 AMOVA分析表明种群间已发生了较高的遗传分化。种群间的遗传一致度为 0 .90 11。估测的种群间的基因流为 0 .5 787。依据 Nei的遗传距离对不同种群进行 U PGMA聚类 ,聚类结果为横山种群 (HS)和东寨港种群(DZG)聚在一起 ,万宁种群 (WN)和琼海种群 (QH)聚为一类。Mantel检验表明遗传距离与地理距离之间有一定的正相关 ,但不显著。种群遗传多样性与环境因子间的相关性分析表明 :海桑种群遗传多样性水平与各环境因子间相关性均不显著。因东寨港引种种群的遗传多样性明显低于天然种群 ,为保护遗传多样性 ,应加强对琼海、万宁种群的就地保护和迁地保护工作。     

Genetic diversity and population structure in Tunisian Lavandula stoechas L. and Lavandula multifida L. (Lamiaceae)

The genetic diversity and population structure of 20 Tunisian Lavandula stoechas L. and Lavandula multifida L. populations, from different bioclimates, were analysed by starch gel electrophoresis using seven isozymes. The genetic diversity within populations varied according to species. Variation in L. multifida was higher than that observed for L. stoechas, and exclusive alleles were detected for taxa.

A high differentiation among populations, for each species, estimated by Wright's F-statistics was revealed. The genetic structure of populations from the same bioclimate was substantial. Nei's, R. [1978. Estimation of average heterozygosity and genetic distance from a small number of individuals. Genetics 89, 583–590] genetic distance among pairs of populations was low. The UPGMA cluster analysis of genetic distance values revealed that populations for each species were not strictly clustered together according to bioclimate or geographic proximity.

For each species, the low genetic divergence among populations and their substantial structure indicate their recent fragmentation due to anthropic pressures. The dendrogram generated from pairwise genetic distance among all populations showed two distinct clusters each corresponding to one species. The high genetic divergence between the two species, based on isozymes, corroborates their taxonomic status, as previously reported using morphological traits. The strategy for the management and conservation of populations should be made for each taxa according to its level of diversity and bioclimate.     

中国落叶松-杨栅锈菌遗传多样性研究

采用SSR分子标记技术对采自全国19个地区、不同年份的落叶松-杨栅锈菌Melampsora larici-populina（简称MLP）36个单孢子堆菌系的遗传多样性和种群遗传结构进行了研究。用5对SSR多态性引物共检测到62个观察等位基因（Na）,有效等位基因数（Ne）为5.42–9.82,平均有效等位基因数为7.05。供试MLP样本在5个SSR位点上的多态性信息量（PIC）变化范围为0.64–0.89,平均值0.79。平均观察杂合度（Ho）、平均期望杂合度（He）分别为0.36和0.86,不同位点的S     

水杉栽培居群的遗传多样性研究

利用RAPD技术,对9个水杉(Metasequoiaglyptostroboides)栽培居群的遗传多样性进行了初步研究。用10bp的随机引物16条,共扩增出103个位点,其中37个为多态位点,占35.92%。各居群的多态位点百分率在16.50%~33.01%之间。POPGENEversion1.31软件处理结果如下:居群的Shannon’s信息指数为0.1930。遗传距离在0.0130~0.0650之间,遗传一致度在0.9370~0.9871之间。AMOVA分析结果显示遗传变异主要存在于居群内,占89.05%,居群之间有一定的分化。上述结果表明水杉栽培居群的遗传多样性略低于自然居群,涵盖了自然居群近80%的遗传多样性。由此可以确认栽培水杉的种源是经过混合的,它们在相当程度上代表了自然居群的遗传多样性水平。采自潜江的9株丛枝水杉(Metasequoiaglyptostroboidesvar.caespitosa)没有扩增出特有位点,将其视为一个居群根据遗传一致度作UPGMA聚类分析时,该居群和湖北的3个居群及南京(NJ)、成都(CD)居群聚在一起;单株聚类时丛枝水杉也没有聚成独立的一支,而是比较分散,因此不支持将丛枝水杉作为水杉的一个变种的分类处理。从亲缘关系上看,丛枝水杉应当归属于湖北潜江蚌湖种子园(BH)和湖北潜江广华(GH)居群,这与其分布现状也是吻合的。     

Application of Microsatellite Markers to Population Genetics Studies of Japanese Flounder Paralichthys olivaceus

We examined population genetic structure by means of microsatellite analysis among 7 Japanese flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus) populations collected from coastal sea areas around Japan. As was expected, all of the 11 microsatellite loci examined were variable in all populations (number of alleles per locus, 15.2–18.2; average of expected heterozygosity, 0.74–0.78). Eleven population pairs in 21 possible pairwise comparisons showed significant genetic heterogeneity associated with allele frequency distributions or fixation index (F _ST ). Modified Cavalli-Sforza chord distance (D _A ) and Nei's standard genetic distance (D _ST ) ranged from 0.051 to 0.090, and from 0.000 to 0.025, respectively. There was evidence that the populations assessed in this study were not drawn from a single panmictic population; however, it appears that Japanese flounder populations around Japan are not well-structured, as an estimate of the fixation index value among the 7 localities was very low (F _ST = 0.0025). Received April 27, 2001; accepted June 27, 2001.     

Microsatellite variation at 24 STR loci in three endogamous groups of Uttar Pradesh,India

We have studied variation at 24 microsatellite markers among 50 individuals from each of three endogamous groups, Bhargavas, Chaturvedis, and non-Bhargava, non-Chaturvedi Brahmins of Uttar Pradesh, India. The number of alleles at the loci tested varied from 4 to 11, with an average of 6 at each locus. Heterozygosity was found to be quite high at all loci in the three subpopulations. It varied between 0.44 to 0.84 among Bhargavas (average 0.6510), 0.44 to 0.80 among Chaturvedis (average 0.6633 +/-), and 0.42 to 0.85 among Brahmins (average 6.694 +/-). Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium analysis revealed that these populations are under genetic equilibrium at almost all the loci tested. Comparisons of allele frequency between Bhargavas and Chaturvedis showed that they differed significantly at 14 short tandem repeat (STR) markers (p < 0.001), while Chaturvedis and Brahmins differed at 6 (p < 0.05) and Brahmins and Bhargavas at 8 (p < 0.05). Average F(IS) and F(ST) for the 24 STR markers was -0.02 and 0.013, respectively. We used both un-weighted pair group with arithmetic mean and principal components analysis to evaluate genetic distances among the three groups. Our results revealed that although there were differences at particular allele frequencies between Bhargavas vs. Brahmins, Bhargavas vs. Chaturvedis, and Brahmins vs. Chaturvedis, these differences were not statistically significant when combined over all 24 STR markers between Chaturvedis vs. Brahmins and Bhargavas vs. Brahmins. The genetic distance analysis revealed that Bhargavas are slightly apart from the other two populations.     

内蒙古中东部不同草原地带羊草种群遗传分化

运用 RAPD技术对内蒙古不同草原地带分布的 5个羊草种群 (共 10 0个个体 )的遗传多样性进行分析。 31个随机引物(10 nt)在 5个羊草种群中共检测到 4 96个扩增片断 ,其中多态性片断 4 89个 ,总的多态位点百分率达 98.6 %。利用 Nei指数和Shannon指数估算了 5个种群的遗传多样性 ,并计算种群相似系数和遗传距离运用 UPGMA法进行聚类分析。结果表明 :无论是种群内还是种群间 ,羊草均存在较高的遗传变异 ,大部分的遗传变异存在于种群内 (Nei指数和 Shannon指数估算结果分别为 85 .4 %和 72 .5 % ) ,只有少部分的遗传变异存在于种群间 ;不同种群的遗传多样性存在差异 ,各种群的遗传多样性与其所处的地理位置具有显著的相关性 ;5个种群的平均遗传距离为 0 .5 0 95 ,变异范围为 0 .4 6 84～ 0 .5 4 76 ;聚类分析结果显示地理距离较近的种群遗传距离较小 ,首先聚在一起 ,而地理距离较远的种群遗传距离较大 ,说明羊草种群间的遗传分化与地理距离存在一定相关性 ;但地理距离最近的两个种群并未最先聚集 ,说明羊草种群间的分化还与其生境的异质性有关
