Genetic diversity among Chinese landraces and cultivars of broomcorn millet (Panicum miliaceum) revealed by the polymerase chain reaction

Broomcorn millet is widely grown in Asia and Europe. This cereal is a very efficient user of soil water and is particularly adapted to sandy, dry soils and dry weather conditions. As one of the oldest crops in ancient China, it has played an important role in the formation and development of Chinese civilisation and culture. It is still one of the major grain crops in northern China where harsh climate conditions prevail. The genetic diversity and relationships among 32 accessions of broomcorn millet (Panicum miliaceum) from the major areas for broomcorn millet growing in China, in addition to six Indian landraces, were evaluated by PCR analysis with six introns splice junction or long random primers. A total of 56 DNA fragments across all materials were scored; among them, 42 (75%) were polymorphic as indicated by their absence in at least 1 of the 38 accessions tested, indicating a high variation at the DNA level among those accessions. Pair‐wise genetic dissimilarity (Dice’s coefficient) ranged from 0.0286 to 0.4737. The clustering largely corroborated with the geographical location of the origins of those accessions. The data indicated that the glutinous/non‐glutinous trait is also associated with the clustering. Majorities of the landraces from Yulin of Shaanxi were clustered into five groups, and majorities of the cultivars or breeding lines from Inner Mongolia were clustered into three groups. The results of this study suggest that the landraces from Yulin of Shaanxi were extensively utilised in the breeding programme of Shanxi, whereas this feature was not observed in the breeding programme of Inner Mongolia.     

Polymerase chain reaction primers for microsatellite loci in the Common Toad Bufo bufo

The Common Toad Bufo bufo is a wide‐ranging species, with a distribution encompassing much of Europe and Asia. Few molecular studies have been undertaken on this species, and only one polymorphic microsatellite locus has been identified. Therefore, little is known about the genetic variability within and between B. bufo populations. The value of such information is essential for monitoring the species and its environment. This paper reports the characterization of 15 B. bufo microsatellite loci using individuals from a Spanish and UK sample.     

Isolation and characterization of DNA microsatellite from cotton bollworm (Helicoverpa armigera,Hübner)

Five microsatellite loci of Helicoverpa armigera were isolated from a partial genomic library screened by oligonucleotide probes. Primers were designed to detect allelic variability and heterozygosity in 60 individuals collected from different host species. All loci were found to be polymorphic, have 8–11 alleles with expected heterozygosity ranging from 0.81 to 0.88. Our results indicate that the five microsatellite loci could provide valuable markers for population genetic and ecological studies of the cotton bollworm.     

棉铃虫核多角体病毒p10基因的序列及转录分析

为了利用棉铃虫核多角体病毒（HaSNPV）p10基因的启动子构建重组病毒杀虫剂及表达系统,应用末端测序法和引物步移法测定了p10基因的序列,并应用Northern杂交和引物延伸实验对该基因进行了深入的转录特性分析,HaSNPV p10基因被定位于基因组DNA的115.4kb-115.6kb处,转录方向与多角体基因相反,在其上下游分别发现了p26和p74基因。转录分析结果确定了p10基因是个极晚期基因,其转录从杆状病毒晚期转录保守序列GTAAG的第二个A开始,转录产物大小约为430nt。HaSNPV p10基因最早可检测到的转录是在病毒感染后的20h,随后其转录产物量迅速放大,到感染后72h达到非常高的水平。围康时相分析同时还检测到一个大小为1300nt的产物,推测该产物为p26和p10通读的转录产物。对HaSNPV P10蛋白序列的分析表明,该蛋白第6－44位及第51－65位氨基酸序列处含多个典型的卷曲螺旋七聚体重复结构,两片段间相隔6个氨基酸残基,在该蛋白序列的第20－34位与第51－65位存在L－X（2）－L－X（10）－L的亮氨酸重复。Helical net分析表明,HaSNPV P10的疏水氨式酸分布为两个集簇区,两者互为180度转角。

应用红外荧光和加尾引物法进行向日葵SSR遗传分析中的多聚PCR和多聚凝胶电泳的优化

在向日葵(Helianthus annuus L.)自交系SSR遗传分析中,为了提高SSR荧光分析效率、简化分析程序和降低研究费用,我们进行了多聚PCR和多聚凝胶电泳两项技术的优化研究。结果表明,优化多聚PCR和多聚凝胶电泳的影响因子(如逐步降低的退火温度的循环数、各个多聚位点引物浓度的平衡、PCR缓冲液浓度以及Taq DNA多聚酶的浓度等)可以收到更好的实验效果。基于以上的优化研究,系统地提出了一套优化的加尾引物法的策略。同时,提出了在多聚PCR和多聚凝胶电泳中常常遇到的技术难题的有效防止和解决的方法。     

Development of microsatellite markers in black locust (Robinia pseudoacacia) using a dual‐supression‐PCR technique

Black locust (Robinia pseudoacacia) is an economically and ecologically important tree species in the world. We isolated seven polymorphic microsatellite loci from R. pseudoacacia using a dual‐suppression‐PCR technique. These loci provided microsatellite markers with high polymorphism ranging from three to 12 alleles per locus and expected heterozygosity between 0.538 and 0.944. The markers are now available for more detailed investigation of population genetic structure and pollen and seed dispersal.     

Nonanchored Inter Simple Sequence Repeat (ISSR) markers: Reproducible and specific tools for genome fingerprinting

Many molecular marker techniques are available today. PCR-based approaches are in demand because of their simplicity and requirement for only small quantities of sample DNA. Nonanchored inter simple sequence repeats (ISSRs) are arbitrary multiloci markers produced by PCR amplification with a microsatellite primer. They are advantageous because no prior genomic information is required for their use. We found the technique stable across a wide range of PCR parameters. Polymorphisms were abundant among 7 dicot species tested with 2 tri-nucleotide and 2 tetra-nucleotide primers. Thus, nonanchored ISSR markers are a good choice for DNA fingerprinting.
