A complicated population system of B chromosomes has been revealed in the karyotypes of the East-Asian mouse Apodemus peninsulae over the whole range. Based on our previous data for mice from Altai, Siberia, Pribaikal’e, and Mongolia and on the results of the present work, we infer that most of animals studied (196 out of 312, or 63%) have an individual variant of the B chromosome system. Only three mice lacked B chromosomes. New data for 44 A. peninsulae mice caught in 2000–2005 in 16 localities of seven regions of Altai, Siberia, and Pribaikal’e showed that all of them had individual variants of the system of B chromosomes due to different combinations (from 2 to 18 B chromosomes) of five classes of B macro- and microchromosomes. 相似文献

Ixodiae ticks have been counted and sampled in six distant locations within the Altai-Sayan Mountain Area and northern forest steppe in 2012. In total, 1829 individuals of I. persulcatus and 719 of I. pavlovskyi ticks were collected by flagging. I. persulcatus is found in all six examined locations and I. pavlovskyi is found in Western Altai, Northeastern Altai, and Northern Altai, as well as in forest parks near Akademgorodok of Novosibirsk. In total, 16S rRNA and COI sequences have been determined in 144 and 164 I. persulcatus individuals, as well as in 60 and 55 I. pavlovskyi. Selectively equivalent mutant forms are present in I. pavlovskyi populations of Northeastern Altai and Northern Altai. The hydrothermal regime in the forest parks near Novosibirsk is optimal for the I. pavlovskyi ticks. These ticks have recently colonized the forest parks near Novosibirsk and therefore are genetically close to I. pavloskyi from the Altai–Sayan Mountain Area populations. 相似文献

The taxonomy of the genus Leptosciarella Tuomikoski, 1960 in the Altai Area within Altai Territory and the Altai Republic was studied. Eleven species were recognized, including three new species which are described and illustrated here: Leptosciarella (L.) ulagana Komarova sp. n., L. (L.) angustistylus Komarova sp. n., L. (L.) senex Komarova sp. n. Additionally, L. (L.) fuscipalpa (Mohrig et Mamaev 1979) and L. (L.) truncata (Tuomikoski 1960) are recorded from Altai for the first time. A key to the Altai species is provided. 相似文献

A new evolutionary genetic phenomenon - increase in the number of B-chromosomes (almost threefold) accompanied by change in B chromosome morphotypes - was discovered in the Artybash population of East Asian mouse Apodemus peninsulae (Mountain Altai) over a historically short period (22 years), comparable with a small number of mouse generations (ten generations). The process of increase in the number of A. peninsulae B-chromosomes in Mountain Altai has been monitored over 26 years (1980, 1986, 1988, 1990, 2002, and 2006). A concept of a new type of genomic mutations - mutations in the number of B-chromosomes-has been substantiated. The phenomenon of genomic mutations in pro-B-chromosomes has been discovered only in the Mountain Altai populations. This region differs from the remaining A. peninsulae dwelling localities by pollution with unspent liquid propellant (UDMH, heptyl). It is assumed that the variants of mouse B chromosome system in the studied A. peninsulae populations in the overall habitation area over long-term periods are likely to remain relatively stable and that their variation is controlled by homeostatic processes. Disturbance of these processes, in particular, due to anthropogenic load, can disrupt the cyclic pattern of increase and decrease in the number of A. peninsulae B-chromosomes in individual years. 相似文献

In the absence of meiotic recombination, deleterious mutations, decreasing the viability, are accumulated and fixed in small Drosophila populations. Study of the viability of hybrid progenies of three laboratory Drosophila melanogaster strains carrying meiotic mutation c(3)G 17 has suggested that the deleterious mutations are negatively synergistic in their interaction. The deleterious mutations localized to the pericentromeric region of chromosome 3 are threefold more efficient as compared with the mutations located in distal regions. Substitution of a new chromosome for the balancer chromosome in a strain with meiotic mutation c(3)G 17 partially restores (by ~20%) the viability of homozygotes c(3)G 17 /c(3)G 17 over the first 20–30 generations. Further cultivation for 30 generations with the same balancer again decreases the viability to the initial level. An epigenetic nature of deleterious mutations is discussed. 相似文献

Several hypotheses concerning variations in the frequency of some elementary events determining the formation and reorganization of mammalian B chromosomes are proposed on the basis of the data on their number, morphology, and DNA composition in Korean field mice Apodemus peninsulae (Mammalia, Rodentia) from natural populations of Altai, Buryatia, Irkutsk oblast, and Primorye. The mechanisms and causes responsible for the formation of B chromosomes and differences in their organization in populations of mice from geographically separated regions are discussed. 相似文献

The endosymbiotic α-proteobacteria Wolbachia is widely spread among arthropods and Filariidae nematodes. This bacterium is transmitted vertically via a transovarian route. Wolbachia is a cause of several reproductive abnormalities in the host species. We analyzed the isofemale lines created using flies collected from Drosophila melanogaster natural populations for infection with the endosymbiont Wolbachia. Wolbachia were genotyped according to five variable markers: the presence of insertion sequence IS5 in two loci, the copy number of two minisatellite repeats, and an inversion. Overall, 665 isofemale lines isolated from the populations of D. melanogaster from Ukraine, Belarus, Moldova, Caucasus, Central Asia, Ural, Udmurtia, Altai, West and East Siberia, and Far East in 1974 through 2005 were used in the work. The samples from Ukrainian, Altaian, and Middle Asian populations were largest. The infection rate of D. melanogaster populations from Middle Asia, Altaian, and Eastern Europe (Ukraine, Moldavia, and Belarus) with Wolbachia amounted to 64, 56, and 39%, respectively. The D. melanogaster population from the Caucasus displayed heterogeneity in the genotypes of this cytoplasmic infection. The Wolbachia genotype wMel, detected in all the populations studied, was the most abundant. The genotype wMelCS2 was always present in the populations from Middle Asia and Altai and was among the rare variants in the D. melanogaster populations from the Eastern Europe. Single instances of the Wolbachia genotype wMelCS occurred in a few flies from the Central Asian and Altai populations, but was not found this genotype in the other regions. 相似文献

Dystonia musculorum (dt) mice show sensory neurodegeneration and movement disorder, such as dystonia and cerebellar ataxia. The causative gene Dystonin (Dst) encodes a cytoskeleton linker protein. Although sensory neurodegeneration has been well studied, glial cell responses in the central nervous system (CNS) are poorly understood. Here, we investigated cell proliferation in the CNS of Dst Gt homozygous mice using newly generated in situ hybridization (ISH) probes—Ki-67 and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) probes—both of which effectively detect proliferating cells. We found that Ki-67-positive cells were significantly decreased in the corpus callosum and thalamus of dt brain at postnatal day 21 (P21). There is a similar but not significant tendency at postnatal day 14 (P14) in the dt brain. We also confirmed the reduced proliferation by PCNA ISH and Ki-67 immunohistochemistry. Double staining with cell-type-specific markers revealed that proliferating cells are oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (OPCs) in both wild-type and dt brain. We also observed a reduced number of Olig2-positive cells in the corpus callosum of Dst Gt homozygous mice at P21, indicating that reduced proliferation resulted in a reduced number of OPCs. Our data indicate that OPCs proliferation is reduced in the dt mouse brain at the postnatal stage and that it subsequently results in the reduced number of OPCs. 相似文献

A study of Russian cystic fibrosis (CF) patient DNA was conducted to assess the incidence frequency of 19 mutations, namely CFTRdele2,3(21kb), F508del, I507del, 1677delTA, 2143delT, 2184insA, 394delTT, 3821delT, L138ins, 604insA, 3944delGT, G542X, W1282X, N1303K, R334W, and 3849 + 10kbC > T, S1196X, 621 + 1g > t, and E92K of the CFTR gene. We also sought to determine the estimated CF frequency in Russian Federation. In addition, we determined the total information content of the approach for 19 common mutations registration in the CFTR gene, 84.6%, and the allelic frequencies of the examined mutations: three mutations were observed with a frequency exceeding 5% (F508del, 53.98%, E92K, 6.47%, CFTRdele2,3(21kb), 5.35%); other mutations were observed with frequencies ranging from 0.13 to 3.0%. The CF population carrier frequency was 1 in 38 subjects, while the predicted CF frequency was 1 in 5776 newborns. 相似文献

Resistance to fusidic acid in Corynebacterium glutamicum and Brevibacterium flavum is associated with mutations in the fusA gene, which encodes the elongation factor G (EF-G). Two to ten percent of fusidic acid-resistant clones were shown to produce more lysine than parent strains. Sequencing of the fusA gene in clones with a high level of lysine production made it possible to find two mutations in the gene at position 1383—С1383G and С1383А. These mutations cause amino acid replacement at position 461 in the protein EF-G, namely, histidine is substituted by glutamine (H461Q). The mutation С1383G was introduced in the chromosomal copy of the fusA gene in C. glutamicum and B. flavum strains by homologous recombination. All clones containing the mutant variant of the fusA gene produced 10% more lysine than the parent strains. 相似文献

Supernumerary chromosomes sporadically arise in many eukaryotic species as a result of genomic rearrangements. If present in a substantial part of species population, those are called B chromosomes, or Bs. This is the case for 70 mammalian species, most of which are rodents. In humans, the most common types of extra chromosomes, sSMCs (small supernumerary marker chromosomes), are diagnosed in approximately 1 of 2000 postnatal cases. Due to low frequency in population, human sSMCs are not considered B chromosomes. Genetic content of both B-chromosomes and sSMCs in most cases remains understudied. Here, we apply microdissection of single chromosomes with subsequent low-pass sequencing on Ion Torrent PGM and Illumina MiSeq to identify unique and repetitive DNA sequences present in a single human sSMC and several B chromosomes in mice Apodemus flavicollis and Apodemus peninsulae. The pipeline for sequencing data analysis was made available in Galaxy interface as an addition to previously published command-line version. Human sSMC was attributed to the proximal part of chromosome 15 long arm, and breakpoints leading to its formation were located into satellite DNA arrays. Genetic content of Apodemus B chromosomes was species-specific, and minor alterations were observed in both species. Common features of Bs in these Apodemus species were satellite DNA and ERV enrichment, as well as the presence of the vaccinia-related kinase gene Vrk1. Understanding of the non-essential genome elements content provides important insights into genome evolution in general. 相似文献

The effects of t-haplotypes on embryonic morphology in house mouse Mus musculus were described. Lethal mutations, t-haplotypes, in homozygotes induce abnormal embryogenesis and zygotic death at different developmental stages, which depends on the time of their action in ontogeny. Death commonly occurs in the first semester of pregnancy from the morula to the mature embryo stage (day 9–10), and the embryogenetic abnormalities and their timing were Specific for each t-haplotype. Such mutations were analyzed to identify the gene products (proteins) affecting the nervous system development. The t-complex proved to contain tandem repeats coding for regulatory factors modulating the expression of specific structural genes in mouse neurons. 相似文献

Three new species of leaf beetles are described: Oreomela dudkorum sp. n. (Terektinskii Ridge, Central Altai Mountains), O. tuvensis sp. n. (mountains of southeastern Republic of Tuva), and O. romantsovi sp. n. (Western Sayan Mountains). The representatives of this genus, and especially of the nominotypical subgenus, were found in Russia and in the territories mentioned for the first time. Thus, the distribution boundary of this genus is shifted 3–4° northwards. The representatives of Oreomela have most probably migrated from Tien Shan to the mountains of southern Siberia via the Mongolian Altai Mountains. 相似文献

Genetic collection of meiotic mutants of winter rye Secale cereale L. (2n = 14) was created. Mutations were detected in inbred F2 generations after self-fertilization of the F1 hybrids, obtained by individual crossing of rye plants (cultivar Vyatka) or weedy rye with plants from autofertile lines. The mutations cause partial or complete plant sterility and are maintained in collection in a heterozygous state. Genetic analysis accompanied by cytogenetic study of meiosis has revealed six mutation types. (1) Nonallelic asynaptic mutations sy1 and sy9 caused the formation of only axial chromosome elements in prophase and anaphase. The synaptonemal complexes (SCs) were absent, the formation of the chromosome “bouquet” was impaired, and all chromosomes were univalent in meiotic metaphase I in 96.8% (sy1) and 67% (sy2) of cells. (2) Weak asynaptic mutation sy3, which hindered complete termination of synapsis in prophase I. Subterminal asynaptic segments were always observed in the SC, and at least one pair of univalents was present in metaphase I, but the number of cells with 14 univalents did not exceed 2%. (3) Mutations sy2, sy6, sy7, sy8, sy10, and sy19, which caused partially nonhomologous synapsis: change in pairing partners and fold-back chromosome synapsis in prophase I. In metaphase I, the number of univalents varied and multivalents were observed. (4) Mutation mei6, which causes the formation of ultrastructural protrusions on the lateral SC elements, gaps and branching of these elements. (5) Allelic mutations mei8 and mei8-10, which caused irregular chromatin condensation along chromosomes in prophase I, sticking and fragmentation of chromosomes in metaphase I. (6) Allelic mutations mei5 and mei10, which caused chromosome hypercondensation, defects of the division spindle formation, and random arrest of cells at different meiotic stages. However, these mutations did not affect the formation of microspore envelopes even around the cells, whose development was blocked at prophase I. Analysis of cytological pictures of meiosis in double rye mutants reveled epistatic interaction in the mutation series sy9 > sy1 > sy3 > sy19, which reflects the order of switching these genes in the course of meiosis. The expression of genes sy2 and sy19 was shown to be controlled by modifier genes. Most meiotic mutations found in rye have analogs in other plant species. 相似文献

Autosomal recessive deafness type 1A (DFNB1A) caused by mutations in the GJB2 gene (Cx26) is the main cause of nonsyndromic hearing impairment in many populations worldwide. It is considered that widespread prevalence of DFNB1A can be due to the long tradition of intermarriages between deaf people (assortative marriages) combined with their increased social adaptation and genetic fitness after widespread introduction of sign language. For the first time, the data on mating structure and reproduction of deaf people living in Yakutia (Eastern Siberia, Russia) are presented in comparison with contribution of the GJB2 gene mutations to the etiology of hearing impairment. The relative fertility of deaf people compared to their hearing siblings is 0.78 (mean number of children 1.76 ± 0.10 and 2.24 ± 0.09 to deaf and their hearing siblings, respectively, p = 0.0018). The rate of assortative marriages among deaf people is 77.1% (81 of 105 marriages). Biallelic mutations in the GJB2 gene were found in 42.2% (43 of 102) of examined deaf people, which corresponded to diagnosis DFNB1A for these patients. A comparison of deaf marital partners by GJB2 status revealed a proportion of noncomplementary marriages (24%) in which hearing loss in both partners was caused by the presence of biallelic GJB2 gene mutations resulting in the birth of only deaf children in such couples. Thus, the set of obtained data including a relatively high genetic fitness (expressed as relative fertility) of deaf people in Yakutia in combination with a high rate of assortative marriages among them and high incidence of DFNB1A indicates a possible weakening of selection against such trait as “deafness” and a possible increase in the frequency of GJB2 mutant alleles in subsequent generations. 相似文献

Measurements of the pollen size in 5 species of Taraxacum sect. Palustria at three levels of ploidy: 2n = 3x = 24 (T. paucilobum), 2n = 4x = 32 (T. vindobonense, T. trilobifolium), 2n = 5x = 40 (T. mendax) and one taxon of unknown number of chromosomes 2n = ? (T. portentosum) are presented in this paper. Obtained results indicate a lack of distinct positive correlation between the pollen size and ploidy in the studied group of plants. Distinct relationship was, however, found between ploidy and the range of pollen size and shape variability. Most variable were the pollen grains of triploid T. paucilobum and the least — those in pentaploid T. mendax. Ranges of pollen variability in tetraploid T. trilobifolium and T. vindobonense and in T. portentosum of unknown number of chromosomes showed intermediate values. 相似文献

A variety of insects accumulate high contents of riboflavin (vitamin B2) in their Malpighian tubules (MTs). Although this process is known to be genetically controlled, the mechanism is not known. In the 1940s and the 1950s, several studies showed that riboflavin contents were low in the MTs of some Bombyx mori (silkworm) mutants with translucent larval skin mutations (e.g., w-3, od, oa, and otm) and that genes responsible for these translucent mutations also affected riboflavin accumulation in the MTs. Since the 2000s, it has been shown that the w-3 gene encodes an ABC transporter, whereas genes responsible for od, oa, and otm mutations encode for the biogenesis of lysosome-related organelles. These findings suggest that some genes of ABC transporters and biogenesis of lysosome-related organelles may control the accumulation of riboflavin in MTs. Therefore, we reexamined the effects that translucent mutations have on the accumulation of riboflavin in MTs by using the translucent and wild-type segregants in mutant strains to measure the specific effect that each gene has on riboflavin accumulation (independent of genomic background). We used nine translucent mutations (w-3oe, oa, od, otm, Obs, oy, or, oh, and obt) even though the genes responsible for some of these mutations (Obs, oy, or, oh, and obt) have not yet been isolated. Through observation of larval MTs and measurements of riboflavin content using high-performance liquid chromatography, we found that the oa, od, otm, and or mutations were responsible for low contents of riboflavin in MTs, whereas the Obs and oy mutations did not affect riboflavin accumulation. This indicates that the molecular mechanism for riboflavin accumulation is similar but somewhat different than the mechanism responsible for uric acid accumulation in epidermal cells. We found that the genes responsible for oa, od, and otm mutations were consistent with those already established for uric acid accumulation in larval epidermis. This suggests that these three genes control riboflavin accumulation in MTs through a mechanism similar to that of uric acid accumulation, although we do not yet know why the or mutation also controls riboflavin accumulation. 相似文献
