The linkage maps of Dendrobium species based on RAPD and SRAP markers

Dendrobium plants are used commonly as tonic herbs and health food in many Asian countries,especially in China.Here we report the genetic map construction of two Dendrobium species with a double pseudo-testcross strategy using random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) and sequence-related amplified polymorphism (SRAP) markers.A F1 mapping population of 90 individuals was developed from a cross between D.officinale and D.hercoglossum.A total of 307 markers,including 209 RAPD and 98 SRAP,were identified and used for genetic linkage group (LG) analysis.The D.officinale linkage map consisted of 11 major linkage groups and 3 doublets,which covered 629.4 cM by a total of 62 markers with an average locus distance of 11.2 cM between two adjacent markers.The D.hercoglossum linkage map contained 112 markers mapped on 15 major and 4 minor linkage groups,spanning a total length of 1,304.6 cM with an average distance of 11.6 cM between two adjacent markers.The maps constructed in this study covered 92.7% and 82.7% of the D.hercoglossum and D.officinale genomes respectively,providing an important basis for the mapping of horticultural and medicinal traits and for the application of marker-assisted selection in Dendrobium breeding program.     

The phylogeny of Orthoptera inferred from mtDNA and description of Elimaea cheni （Tettigoniidae： Phaneropterinae） mitogenome

The complete 15,831 bp nucleotide sequence of the mitochondrial genome from Elimaea cheni(Phaneropterinae)was determined.The putative initiation codon for cox1 was TTA.The phylogeny of Orthoptera based on different mtDNA datasets were analyzed with maximum likelihood(ML)and Bayesian inference(BI).When all 37 genes(mtDNA)were analyzed simultaneously,the monophyly of Caelifera and Ensifera were recovered in the context of our taxon sampling.The phylogeny of Orthoptera was largely consistent with previous phylogenetie hypotheses.Rhaphidophoridae to be a sister group of Tettigoniidae,and the relationships among four subfamilies of Tettigoniidae were(Phaneropterinae+(Conocephalinae+(Bradyporinae+Tettigoniinae))).Pyrgomorphidae was the most basal group of Caelifera.The relationships among six acridid subfamilies were(Oedipodinae+(Acridinae+(Gomphocerinae+(Oxyinae+(Calliptaminae +Cyrtacanthaeridinae))))).However,we did not recover a monophyletic Grylloidea.Myrmecophilidae clustered into one clade with Gryllotalpidae instead of with Gryllidae.ML and BI analyses of all protein coding genes(using all nucleotide sequence data or excluding the third codon position,and amino acid sequences)revealed a topology identical to that of the entire mtDNA genome dataset.However,22 tRNAs genes excluding the DHU loop and T()C loop(TRNA),and two rRNA genes(RRNA)perform poorly when analyzed as single dataset.Our results suggest that the best phylogenetie inferences were ML and BI methods based on total mtDNA.Excluding tRNA genes,rRNA genes and the third codon position of protein coding genes from dataset and converting nucleotide sequences to amino acid sequences do not positively affect phylogenetic reconstruction.     

A novel marker for the platyfish （Xiphophorus maculatus） W chromosome is derived from a Polinton transposon

A consensus sequence,encoding a putative DNA polymerase type B derived from a Polinton transposon,was assembled from the sex determination region of Xiphophorus maculatus.This predicted protein,which is 1,158 as in length,contains a DNA_pol_B_2 domain and a DTDS motif.The DNA polymerase type B gene has about 10 copies in the haploid X.maculatus genome with one Y-specific copy.Interestingly,it has specific copies on the W chromosome in the X.maculatus Usumacinta strain (sex determination with female heterogamety),which represent new markers for this type of sex chromosome in platyfish.This marker with W-and Y-specific copies suggests relationship between different types of gonosomes and allows comparing male and female heterogameties in the platyfish.Further molecular analysis of the DNA polymerase type B gene in X.maculatus will shed new light on the evolution of sex chromosomes in platyfish.

基于环氧功能基团的杂化硅胶固定化酶反应器

在蛋白质组学研究中, 为解决自由溶液酶解时间长、蛋白酶自降解等问题, 各种类型的固定化酶反应器引起了人们的关注. 采用溶胶凝胶法, 在100 µm内径毛细管内, 以3-(甲基丙烯酰氧)丙基三甲氧基硅烷为功能单体, 以四乙氧基硅烷为交联剂, 制备了一种新型的杂化硅胶整体材料. 并通过在整体柱表面由环氧功能团水解得到的二醇与胰蛋白酶(trypsin)的氨基进行一步反应, 实现了胰蛋白酶固定化. 利用该IMER, 在47 s内实现了牛血清白蛋白的酶解; 经反相色谱分离和质谱鉴定, 序列覆盖率在35%以上, 与自由溶液酶解12 h的效果相当. 结果表明, 基于亲水性杂化硅胶整体材料的IMER有望在蛋白质组学研究中发挥重要作用.
