The use of microsatellite DNA markers for soybean genotype identification

Conventional morphological and pigementation traits, as well as disease resistance, have been used to distinguish the uniqueness of new soybean cultivars for purposes of plant variety protection. With increasing numbers of cultivars and a finite number of conventional characters, it has become apparent that such traits will not suffice to establish uniqueness. The objective of this work was to provide an initial evaluation of microsatellite or simple-sequence-repeat (SSR) DNA markers to develop unique DNA profiles of soybean genotypes. Microsatellites are DNA sequences such as (AT) _n /(TA) _n and (ATT) _n /(TAA) _n that are composed of tandemly repeated 2–5-basepair DNA core sequences. The DNA sequences flanking microsatellites are generally conserved allowing the selection of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) primers that will amplify the intervening SSR. Variation in the number of tandem repeats, n, results in PCR product length differences. The SSR alleles present at three (AT) _n /(TA) _n and four (ATT) _n /(TAA) _n loci were determined in each of 96 diverse soybean genotypes. Between 11 and 26 alleles were found at each of the seven loci. Only two genotypes had identical SSR allelic profiles and these had very similar pedigrees. The gene diversity for the seven markers averaged 0.87 for all 96 genotypes and 0.74 for a subset of 26 North American cultivars. These are much higher than soybean gene diversity values obtained using RFLP markers, and are similar to the average values obtained for human microsatellite markers. SSR markers provide an excellent complement to the conventional markers that are currently used to characterize soybean genotypes.     

Toward the development of smart and low cost point-of-care biosensors based on screen printed electrodes

Screen printing technology provides a cheap and easy means to fabricate disposable electrochemical devices in bulk quantities which are used for rapid, low-cost, on-site, real-time and recurrent industrial, pharmaceutical or environmental analyses. Recent developments in micro-fabrication and nano-characterization made it possible to screen print reproducible feature on materials including plastics, ceramics and metals. The processed features forms screen-printed disposable biochip (SPDB) upon the application of suitable bio-chemical recognition receptors following appropriate methods. Adequacy of biological and non-biological materials is the key to successful biochip development. We can further improve recognition ability of SPDBs by adopting new screen printed electrode (SPE) configurations. This review covers screen-printing theory with special emphasis on the technical impacts of SPE architectures, surface treatments, operational stability and signal sensitivity. The application of SPE in different areas has also been summarized. The article aims to highlight the state-of-the-art of SPDB at the laboratory scale to enable us in envisaging the deployment of emerging SPDB technology on the commercial scale.

Examination of pair-duet stability to promote long-term monitoring of the endangered red-crowned crane (<Emphasis Type="Italic">Grus japonensis</Emphasis>)

Acoustic-based monitoring has proved useful for many birds and seems promising for the endangered red-crowned crane. However, its validity in crane conservation is unclear in the absence of knowledge concerning the long-term stability of pair-specific duets. The red-crowned crane is monogamous and long-lived, with stable pair bonding both within and between years. Pair mates perform loud duets—a succession of male and female calls emitted with definite temporal coordination. We examined the stability of duets for five captive pairs over five years (2003–2007) on the basis of analysis of the syllables within the duets. MANOVA showed that the effect of pair identity on syllable characteristics was always stronger than the effect of the year of recording. Cross-validation of duets from 2004, 2005, 2006, and 2007 with discriminant analysis (DFA) functions derived, respectively, from pooled samples from 2003, 2003–2004, 2003–2005, and 2003–2006 resulted in comparably high percentages of correct classification into pairs. The pairs could be reliably identified by their duets and pair-specific differences in syllable characteristics were stable with time. These data suggest acoustic monitoring is a feasible alternative to more invasive methods of identification.
