Background
The ideal malaria parasite populations for initial mapping of genomic regions contributing to phenotypes such as drug resistance and virulence, through genome-wide association studies, are those with high genetic diversity, allowing for numerous informative markers, and rare meiotic recombination, allowing for strong linkage disequilibrium (LD) between markers and phenotype-determining loci. However, levels of genetic diversity and LD in field populations of the major human malaria parasite P. vivax remain little characterized.Results
We examined single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and LD patterns across a 100-kb chromosome segment of P. vivax in 238 field isolates from areas of low to moderate malaria endemicity in South America and Asia, where LD tends to be more extensive than in holoendemic populations, and in two monkey-adapted strains (Salvador-I, from El Salvador, and Belem, from Brazil). We found varying levels of SNP diversity and LD across populations, with the highest diversity and strongest LD in the area of lowest malaria transmission. We found several clusters of contiguous markers with rare meiotic recombination and characterized a relatively conserved haplotype structure among populations, suggesting the existence of recombination hotspots in the genome region analyzed. Both silent and nonsynonymous SNPs revealed substantial between-population differentiation, which accounted for ~40% of the overall genetic diversity observed. Although parasites clustered according to their continental origin, we found evidence for substructure within the Brazilian population of P. vivax. We also explored between-population differentiation patterns revealed by loci putatively affected by natural selection and found marked geographic variation in frequencies of nucleotide substitutions at the pvmdr-1 locus, putatively associated with drug resistance.Conclusion
These findings support the feasibility of genome-wide association studies in carefully selected populations of P. vivax, using relatively low densities of markers, but underscore the risk of false positives caused by population structure at both local and regional levels.See commentary: http://www.biomedcentral.com/1741-7007/8/9014.

The literature data on use of genomic in situ hybridization (GISH) for genetic studying of common wheat and its close relatives are reviewed. The conclusions as to the necessity of complex investigation of genetic material using GISH and other modern methods are drawn. 相似文献

The possibility of biochemical and morphological marker genes application for QTL and determination of their association with definite D chromosomes was shown on F2 populations of bread wheat from crossing of hexaploids AABBDD with different D subgenomes and the same genome AB part. Algorithm for calculation of the theoretical means for evaluation of differences according t-criterion was proposed and examined. The results of biometrical genetic analysis of the quantitative traits obtained by joint scaling Cavalli test using 6-10 different generations were used for calculation of theoretical means. 相似文献

A full-length c-DNA encoding a xyloglucan-specific endo -beta-1, 4-
glucanase (XEG) has been isolated from the filamentous fungus Aspergillus
aculeatus by expression cloning in yeast. The colonies expressing
functional XEG were identified on agar plates containing azurine-dyed
cross-linked xyloglucan. The cDNA encoding XEG was isolated, sequenced,
cloned into an Aspergillus expression vector, and transformed into
Aspergillus oryzae for heterologous expression. The recombinant enzyme was
purified to apparent homogeneity by anion- exchange and gel permeation
chromatography. The recombinant XEG has a molecular mass of 23,600, an
isoelectric point of 3.4, and is optimally stable at a pH of 3.4 and
temperature below 30 degreesC. The enzyme hydrolyzes structurally diverse
xyloglucans from various sources, but hydrolyzes no other cell wall
component and can therefore be considered a xyloglucan-specific endo
-beta-1, 4-glucanohydrolase. XEG hydrolyzes its substrates with retention
of the anomeric configuration. The Kmof the recombinant enzyme is 3.6
mg/ml, and its specific activity is 260 micromol/min per mg protein. The
enzyme was tested for its ability to solubilize xyloglucan oligosaccharides
from plant cell walls. It was shown that treatment of plant cell walls with
XEG yields only xyloglucan oligosaccharides, indicating that this enzyme
can be a powerful tool in the structural elucidation of xyloglucans.

Genetic analysis of four tow straw rye populations has been carried out basing on the trait electrophoretic spectrum of grain esterase isozymes. Expression of seven independent Est genes has been shown. Three of them are clustered and their intrapopulation polymorphism exceeds two alleles. Comparative analysis of the frequences of different genes in parental populations and in F2 with literature data about localization of Est genes makes it possible to carry out chromosomal localization of the genes identified according to the fact of presence or absence of linking with the genes of rye self-incompatibility. 相似文献
