The structure and evolution of a satellite DNA family was examined in lizards from the genus Darevskia (family Lacertidae). Comparison of tandem units of repeated DNA (satDNA), CLsat, in all species from the genus Darevskia has shown that their variability is largely based on single-nucleotide substitutions, which constitute about 50 diagnostic positions underlying classification of the family into three subfamilies. Maximum differences between the subfamilies reached 25%. At this level of tandem unit divergence between the subfamilies, no cross-hybridization between them was observed (at 65 degrees C). The individual variability of one subfamily within the species was on average 5% while the variability between species consensuses within a subfamily was 10%. The presence of highly conserved regions in all monomers and some features of their organization show that satellites of all Darevskia species belong to one satDNA family. The organization of unit sequences of satellites CLsat and Agi also detected by us in another lizard genus, Lacerts s. str. was compared. Similarity that was found between these satellites suggests their relatedness and common origin. A possible pathway of evolution of these two satDNA families is proposed. The distribution and content of CLsat repeat subfamilies in all species of the genus was examined by Southern blotting hybridization. Seven species had mainly CLsatI (83 to 96%); three species, approximately equal amounts of CLsatI and CLsatIII (the admixture of CLsatII was 2-3%); and five species, a combination of all three subfamilies in highly varying proportions. Based on these results as well as on zoogeographic views on phylogeny and taxonomy of the Darevskia species, hypotheses on the evolution of molecular-genetic relationships within this genus are advanced. 相似文献

In two very closely related but reproductively isolated mite species, Tetranychus urticae and T. turkestani, we found nucleotide diversity to be extensive for mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) cytochrome oxidase 1 (COI) (3-4%) but extremely reduced for nuclear ribosomal DNA (rDNA) internal transcribed spacer (ITS2) (less than 0.5%). By contrast, ITS2 was shown to evolve much faster than COI between species of this genus. Furthermore, we found that these two species are polyphyletic for mtDNA but monophyletic for rDNA. Thus it appears that despite its biparental transmission and multiplicity of copies in the genome, nuclear rDNA has a smaller effective population size than mtDNA in these species. The conjunction of efficient concerted evolution and/or gene conversion in the rDNA cluster, the haplodiploidy of these species and their female-biased sex ratio could account for this apparent contradiction. 相似文献

Bluetongue virus is the type species of the genus Orbivirus in the family Reoviridae. We report the first complete genome sequence of an isolate (IND2004/01) of bluetongue virus serotype 10 (BTV-10) from Andhra Pradesh, India. This isolate, which is stored in the Orbivirus Reference Collection (ORC) at IAH Pirbright, shows >99% nucleotide identity in all 10 genome segments with a vaccine strain of BTV-10 from the United States. 相似文献

The first complete nucleotide sequences of two lytic Staphylococcus aureus double stranded DNA phages, 44AHJD (16784 bp) and P68 (18227 bp), are reported. Both are small isometric phages, with short, non-contractile tails and a pre-neck appendage. Based on their morphology, their genome size, the similarity of the encoded gene products, the type of infection and on the possession of a type B DNA polymerase, 44AHJD and P68 are allocated to the order Caudovirales, family Podoviridae, genus 'phi29-like phages'. The genome of 44AHJD differs from that of P68 by a deletion spanning nucleotides 10091 to 11531 of the P68 genome. The electrophoretic analysis of the terminal DNA fragments of P68 DNA and P68 DNA protein complex suggested the presence of a terminal protein at either DNA end. In contrast to the lysis cassette of the phi29-like phages, which is located at the end of the late operon, the lysis cassette of 44AHJD and P68 is located within the structural genes. 相似文献

DNA hybridization was used to establish DNA sequence relationships among seven Drosophila species. Single-copy DNA was isolated from four species within the Drosophila mulleri complex, D. mojavensis, D. arizonensis, D. ritae and D. starmeri. These single-copy DNAs were used as tracers to be hybridized with each other and one additional member of the mulleri complex, D. aldrichi, a member of a closely related complex, D. hydei, and a distantly related species, D. melanogaster. Two methods have been used to determine the relatedness between these species: (1) the extent of duplex formed as measured by binding to hydroxyapatite and (2) the thermal stability of the duplexed DNA. Moderately repetitive DNA was purified from these species and used similarly to determine the divergence of this family of sequences. The rate of nucleotide substitution was estimated to be 0.2 +/-, 0.1% base pair change per million years for both single-copy and middle-repetitive DNAs. The size of the D. arizonensis genome, a representative of the mulleri complex, was calculated to be 2.2 X 10(8) base pairs from its kinetic complexity similar to that of D. hydei. The relative amounts (18%) and average reiteration frequency (100 copies) of the middle-repetitive DNA are similar for all Drosophila species studied. Finally, the data are presented in a phylogenetic tree. 相似文献

Repetitive DNA was cloned from HindIII-digested genomic DNA of Larix leptolepis. The repetitive DNA was about 170 bp long, had an AT content of 67%, and was organized tandemly in the genome. Using fluorescence in situ hybridization and subsequent DAPI banding, the repetitive DNA was localized in DAPI bands at the proximal region of one arm of chromosomes in L. leptolepis and Larix chinensis. Southern blot hybridization to genomic DNA of seven species and five varieties probed with cloned repetitive DNA showed that the repetitive DNA family was present in a tandem organization in genomes of all Larix taxa examined. In addition to the 170-bp sequence, a 220-bp sequence belonging to the same DNA family was also present in 10 taxa. The 220-bp repeat unit was a partial duplication of the 170-bp repeat unit. The 220-bp repeat unit was more abundant in L. chinensis and Larix potaninii var. macrocarpa than in other taxa. The repetitive DNA composed 2.0-3.4% of the genome in most taxa and 0.3 and 0.5% of the genome in L. chinensis and L. potaninii var. macrocarpa, respectively. The unique distribution of the 220-bp repeat unit in Larix indicates the close relationship of these two species. In the family Pinaceae, the LPD (Larix proximal DAPI band specific repeat sequence family) family sequence is widely distributed, but their amount is very small except in the genus Larix. The abundant LPD family in Larix will occur after its speciation. 相似文献

A Gram-stain-negative, rod-shaped, obligately aerobic, nonflagellated, and chemoheterotrophic bacterium, designated IMCC3088T, was isolated from coastal seawater of the Yellow Sea. The 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated that this strain belonged to the family Halieaceae which shared the highest sequence similarities with Luminiphilus syltensis NOR5-1BT (94.5%) and Halioglobus pacificus S1-72T (94.5%), followed by 92.3–94.3% sequence similarities with other species within the aforementioned family. Phylogenetic analyses demonstrated that strain IMCC3088T was robustly clustered with Luminiphilus syltensis NOR5-1BT within the family Halieaceae. However, average amino acid identity (AAI), percentages of conserved proteins (POCP), average nucleotide identity (ANI), and alignment fraction (AF) between strain IMCC3088T and Luminiphilus syltensis NOR5-1BT were 54.5%, 47.7%, 68.0%, and 16.5%, respectively, suggesting that they belonged to different genera. Whole-genome sequencing of strain IMCC3088T revealed a 3.1 Mbp genome size with a DNA G + C content of 51.7 mol%. The genome encoded diverse metabolic pathways including sulfur oxidation, phenol degradation, and proteorhodopsin phototrophy. Mono-unsaturated fatty acids were found to be the predominant cellular fatty acid components in the strain. Phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, and diphosphatidylglycerol were the primarily identified polar lipids, and ubiquinone-8 was identified as a major respiratory quinone. The taxonomic data collected herein suggested that strain IMCC3088T represented a novel genus and species of the family Halieaceae, for which the name Aequoribacter fuscus gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed with the type strain (= KACC 15529T = NBRC 108213T). 相似文献

For new species in Lipomyces are described. In terms of nuclear genome comparison the genus Lipomyces comprises three species-clusters. A key to the nine species now assigned to the genus, is given. The delimitation of species by (i) rRNA nucleotide sequence analyses of the 18S and 25S subunits and (II) nDNA homology determinations, do not invariably lead to the recognition of congruent taxa. The family of the Lipomycetaceae, nevertheless provides an illuminative model for phylogenetic studies in terms of more appropriate ribosomal nucleotide sequence analyses of both its teleomorphic and anamorphic members. 相似文献

PCR analysis of the pandemic strain of Vibrio parahaemolyticus, KX-V237 (total genome sequenced) showed a subculture where the size of the amplicons had increased. The purpose of this study was to analyze the mechanism of this change. We found a 1,243-bp DNA sequence inserted in one of the pandemic marker genes in this strain. The inserted DNA sequence possessed the genetic structures shared by insertion sequences (ISs) of the IS3 family. This IS had 26-bp imperfect terminal inverted repeats (IRs) and two partially overlapping reading frames, orfA and orfB. OrfA codes for a helix-turn-helix, OrfA and OrfAB produced by translational frameshifting code for leucine zipper motifs, and OrfB codes for a DDE motif. orfA and orfB were homologous to those in the IS3 family. This IS was named ISVpa2. Southern blot analysis showed the copy number of ISVpa2 in our stock culture and its subculture of KX-V237 was three and four, respectively; whereas it was only one in the reported genome sequence. Analysis of the flanking sequences for seven ISVpa2 copies showed ISVpa2 is capable of inserting at multiple sites and ISVpa2 causes genetic rearrangements including insertional inactivation of the target gene and adjacent deletion. ISVpa2 created 3-base duplications upon insertion. PCR, hybridization, and nucleotide sequence analyses showed ISVpa2 homologs were detected in all of the 62 other strains of V. parahaemolyticus examined; and in some strains of Vibrio vulnificus (98% identity), Vibrio penaeicida (86% identity), and Vibrio splendidus (87% identity); but was not in 25 other species in the genus Vibrio. The data demonstrate that ISVpa2 is a transpositionally active IS discovered for the first time in V. parahaemolyticus and suggest that ISVpa2 may be transferred among the species of the genus Vibrio. 相似文献

The Ns genome of the genus Psathyrostachys is a component of the polyploid genome in the genus Leymus. Using fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), the occurrence and abundance of 2 tandem repetitive sequences from Leymus racemosus (Lam.) Tzvelev, pLrTaiI-1 (TaiI family) and pLrPstI-1 (1 class of 350-bp family), were assayed in 4 species of the genera Psathyrostachys and Leymus. The pLrPstI-1 sequence was absent in all 4 Psathyrostachys species. While P. fragilis and P. huashanica did not have the pLrTaiI-1 sequence, 15 accessions of P. juncea and 2 accessions of P. lanuginosa had pLrTaiI-1 sites ranging in number from 7 to 16 and from 2 to 21, respectively. The numbers of pLrTaiI-1 and pLrPstI-1 sites were 1-24 and 0-30, respectively, in L. ramosus; 2-31 and 5-36 in L. racemosus; 0-4 and 0 in L. mollis; 2-9 and 24-27 in L. secalinus. The FISH assay on pLrTaiI-1 was successfully converted to a sequence-tagged-site polymerase chain reaction (STS-PCR) test using a primer pair designed from the sequence of this repetitive DNA. Seventy-three accessions representing 27 Leymus species were assayed for the abundance of pLrTaiI-1 by STS-PCR. With a few exceptions of uniformity in some accessions, nearly all Leymus species observed were heterogeneous for the abundance of pLrTaiI-1 sequence and no Leymus species was totally devoid of this repetitive sequence. These findings may have significance for the understanding of phylogeny, nature of polyploidy, adaptive ranges, and breeding potential of Leymus species. 相似文献

This paper reports the molecular and cytogenetic characterization of a HindIII family of satellite DNA in the bat species Pipistrellus pipistrellus. This satellite is organized in tandem repeats of 418 bp monomer units, and represents approximately 3% of the whole genome. The consensus sequence from five cloned monomer units has an A-T content of 62.20%. We have found differences in the ladder pattern of bands between two populations of the same species. These differences are probably because of the absence of the target sites for the HindIII enzyme in most monomer units of one population, but not in the other. Fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) localized the satellite DNA in the pericentromeric regions of all autosomes and the X chromosome, but it was absent from the Y chromosome. Digestion of genomic DNAs with HpaII and its isoschizomer MspI demonstrated that these repetitive DNA sequences are not methylated. Other bat species were tested for the presence of this repetitive DNA. It was absent in five Vespertilionidae and one Rhinolophidae species, indicating that it could be a species/genus specific, repetitive DNA family. 相似文献

To address understanding the organization of the 5S rRNA multigene family in the fish genome, the nucleotide sequence and organization array of 5S rDNA were investigated in the genus Leporinus, a representative freshwater fish group of South American fauna. PCR, subgenomic library screening, genomic blotting, fluorescence in situ hybridization, and DNA sequencing were employed in this study. Two arrays of 5S rDNA were identified for all species investigated, one consisting of monomeric repeat units of around 200 bp and another one with monomers of 900 bp. These 5S rDNA arrays were characterized by distinct NTS sequences (designated NTS-I and NTS-II for the 200- and 900-bp monomers, respectively); however, their coding sequences were nearly identical. The 5S rRNA genes were clustered in two chromosome loci, a major one corresponding to the NTS-I sites and a minor one corresponding to the NTS-II sites. The NTS-I sequence was variable among Leporinus spp., whereas the NTS-II was conserved among them and even in the related genus Schizodon. The distinct 5S rDNA arrays might characterize two 5S rRNA gene subfamilies that have been evolving independently in the genome. 相似文献

The PstI family of elements are short, highly repetitive DNA sequences interspersed throughout the genome of the Bovidae. We have cloned and sequenced some members of the PstI family from cattle, goat, and buffalo. These elements are approximately 500 bp, have a copy number of 2 x 10(5) - 4 x 10(5), and comprise about 4% of the haploid genome. Studies of nucleotide sequence homology indicate that the buffalo and goat PstI repeats (type II) are similar types of short interspersed nucleotide element (SINE) sequences, but the cattle PstI repeat (type I) is considerably more divergent. Additionally, the goat PstI sequence showed significant sequence homology with bovine serine tRNA, and is therefore likely derived from serine tRNA. Interestingly, Southern hybridization suggests that both types of SINEs (I and II) are present in all the species of Bovidae. Dendrogram analysis indicates that cattle PstI SINE is similar to bovine Alu-like SINEs. Goat and buffalo SINEs formed a separate cluster, suggesting that these two types of SINEs evolved separately in the genome of the Bovidae. 相似文献

The 2C nuclear DNA amounts were determined for 99 accessions, representing 23 Arachis species from 8 of 9 taxonomic sections, and two synthetic amphidiploids. Mean 2C DNA amounts varied by 15.20%, ranging from 10.26 to 11.82 pg, between accessions of Arachis hypogaea (2n = 4x = 40). Nuclear DNA content variation (5.33-5.91 pg) was also detected among Arachis duranensis (2n = 2x = 20) accessions. The intraspecific variation in the two species may have resulted from indirect selection for favourable genome sizes in particular environmental conditions. The accessions belonging to A. hypogaea ssp. hypogaea (mean value 11.27 pg) with longer life cycle had significantly larger mean DNA content than the accessions of A. hypogaea ssp. fastigiata (mean value 10.97 pg). For 20 diploid (2n = 2x = 20) species of the genus, 2C nuclear DNA amounts ranged from approximately 3 to 7 pg. The diploid perennial species of section Arachis have about 12% more DNA than the annual species. Comparisons of DNA amounts show that evolutionary rating is not a reliable guide to DNA amounts in generic sections of the genus; lower DNA values with evolutionary advancement were found in sections Heteranthae and Triseminatae, but the same was not true for sections Arachis and Caulorrhizae. Similarly, there is evidence of significant differences in DNA content between 4 ancient sections (Procumbentes, Erectoides, Rhizomatosae, and Extranervosae) of the genus. The occurrence of genome size plasticity in both A. duranensis and A. hypogaea provides evidence that A. duranensis could be one of the diploid progenitors of A. hypogaea. The DNA content in the two synthetic amphidiploids corresponded to the sum value estimated for parental species.

Spindle-shaped virus-like particles are abundant in extreme geothermal environments, from which five spindle-shaped viral species have been isolated to date. They infect members of the hyperthermophilic archaeal genus Sulfolobus , and constitute the Fuselloviridae , a family of double-stranded DNA viruses. Here we present four new members of this family, all from terrestrial acidic hot springs. Two of the new viruses exhibit a novel morphotype for their proposed attachment structures, and specific features of their genome sequences strongly suggest the identity of the host-attachment protein. All fuselloviral genomes are highly conserved at the nucleotide level, although the regions of conservation differ between virus-pairs, consistent with a high frequency of homologous recombination having occurred between them. We propose a fuselloviral specific mechanism for interviral recombination, and show that the spacers of the Sulfolobus CRISPR antiviral system are not biased to the highly similar regions of the fusellovirus genomes. 相似文献

A study of 28 Elymus species using repetitive DNA sequences. 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Four repetitive DNA sequences cloned from the barley (Hordeum vulgare) genome and common for different Triticeae species were used for a molecular study of phylogenetic relationships among 28 Elymus species. Two wild Hordeum species (H genome), two Pseudoroegneria species (S genome), Agropyron cristatum (P genome), and Australopyrum velutinum (W genome) were included as genomic representatives for the genomes that supposedly were involved in the evolution of the genus Elymus. Our results are essentially congruent with the genomic classification system. This study demonstrates that Elymus is not a monophyletic genus. Based on an analysis of Southern blot hybridization we could discriminate between SY and SH species owing to the strong specific hybridization pattern of the H genome. Hexaploid SYH species gave a hybridization pattern similar to SH species for the same reason. The results support the genomic composition of Elymus batalinii as SYP and also indicated the presence of at least one H genome in Elymus enysii with a hitherto unknown genomic constitution. Elymus erianthus had a hybridization pattern distinctly different from all other species in the investigation. Key words : Elymus, RFLP, phylogeny, repetitive DNA. 相似文献

Large variation in genome size as determined by the nuclear DNA content and the mitotic chromosome size among diploid rice species is revealed using flow cytometry and image analyses. Both the total chromosomal length (r_0.939) and the total chromosomal area (r_0.927) correlated well with the nuclear DNA content. Among all the species examined, Oryza australiensis (E genome) and O. brachyantha (F genome), respectively, were the largest and smallest in genome size. O. sativa (A genome) involving all the cultivated species showed the intermediate genome size between them. The distribution patterns of genome-specific repetitive DNA sequences were physically determined using fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). O. brachyantha had limited sites of the repetitive DNA sequences specific to the F genome. O. australiensis showed overall amplification of genome-specific DNA sequences throughout the chromosomes. The amplification of the repetitive DNA sequences causes the variation in the chromosome morphology and thus the genome size among diploid species in the genus Oryza. 相似文献

DNA-DNA hybridization reveals low DNA homologies (about 14%) between the species of Ectothiorhodospira genus and indicate clearly that the degree of divergence within this genus exceeds the interspecific level. The degree of genome similarities of E. mobilis and E. vacuolata (more than 80% homology) is high and characteristic for the strains of one and the same species.The results of rRNA-DNA and secondary DNA-DNA hybridization indicate the following: Ectothiorhodospira and Thiocapsa are far less related than the genera of one and the same family; the genus Ectothiorhodospira is equidistant from both families of purple sulfur and nonsulfur bacteria. Thus Ectothiorhodospira is a taxon of a higher rank than a genus; we agree with Imhoff's proposal of a new family Ectothiorhodospiraceae. 相似文献
