旨在对广灵县优种驴场保种群体进行调查的基础上构建分子系谱,并对其种群的遗传结构进行分析。本研究采集保种群成年、体况良好的广灵驴（体重350~400 kg）颈静脉血10 mL（n=107）,其中公驴13份,母驴94份,抗凝处理后提取全血DNA。采用12个微卫星标记进行荧光PCR扩增后,用ABI3730测序仪进行分型。分型结果采用Cervus 2.0和Pedigraph 2.4软件构建分子系谱,同时采用STRUCTURE2.3和Fstat软件计算群体遗传参数,采用R语言的hclust函数绘制7头公驴及其后代的系统发生NJ树（邻接树）。结果,对107头种驴进行了分子系谱构建,找到了30头子代的父亲和7头子代的母亲,系谱可靠性>90%;微卫星标记的平均观测杂合度（H_Obs）和多态信息含量（PIC）分别为0.676 5和0.593 9,标记遗传多样性较高;NJ树对7个公驴家系进行了聚类;群体分化系数（F_ST）为0.184,群体平均近交系数（F_IT）为0.033,群体内近交系数（F_IS）为-0.238,且群体处于哈代-温伯格平衡状态,存在很弱的近交。本研究建立了广灵驴保种群可靠性较高的分子系谱并对其遗传结构进行了分析,证明该群体遗传多态性较高,群体近交系数较低,处于较好的保种状态,具有较大的品种资源开发潜力。     

Performance of using opposing homozygotes for paternity testing in Japanese Black cattle

Genome-wide single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers in Japanese Black cattle enable genomic prediction and verifying parent–offspring relationships. We assessed the performance of opposing homozygotes (OH) for paternity testing in Japanese Black cattle, using SNP genotype information of 50 sires and 3,420 fattened animals, 1,945 of which were fathered by the 50 genotyped sires. The number of OH was counted for each sire–progeny pair in 28,764 SNPs with minor allele frequencies of ≥0.05 in this population. Across all pairs of animals, the number of OH tended to increase as the pedigree-based coefficient of relationship decreased. With a threshold of 288 (1% of SNPs) for paternity testing, most sire–progeny pairs were detected as true relationships. The frequency of Mendelian inconsistencies was 2.4%, reflecting the high accuracy of pedigree information in Japanese Black cattle population. The results indicate the utility of OH for paternity testing in Japanese Black cattle.     

小鹅瘟病毒荧光RPA恒温快速检测方法的建立与应用

旨在建立一种以重组酶聚合酶扩增技术（RPA）为基础的快速检测方法,用于小鹅瘟病毒的快速检测。小鹅瘟是一种常见的水禽传染病,严重危害我国养鹅业的健康发展。为了快速准确对小鹅瘟进行诊断,减少该病的危害,本研究以小鹅瘟病毒VP3基因保守片段为靶点,利用重组酶聚合酶扩增技术（RPA）建立了一种准确高效的小鹅瘟病毒RPA恒温快速检测方法,并对检测方法的灵敏度、特异性进行评价,并与传统PCR和传统RT-PCR方法进行比较。结果表明,该检测方法具有较高的灵敏度,可检测到10 copies/μL的病毒核酸;具有良好的特异性,只特异性地扩增鹅细小病毒,而与鹅副黏病毒、鹅源鸭瘟病毒、小鹅流行性感冒病毒、鹅副伤寒病毒、大肠杆菌和曲霉菌均未发生交叉反应;同时该方法重复性检测的变异系数低于6%,具有很好的重复性。阳性符合试验表明该检测方法与荧光定量PCR符合率为99%。该方法可以很好地应用于小鹅瘟的大规模临床样本检测,为小鹅瘟病毒的高通量检测和流行病学调查提供技术手段。

Evaluation of 'quick and dirty' DNA extraction methods for marker-assisted selection in rice (Oryza sativa L.)

Six simple methods for extracting DNA from rice seedlings were evaluated for marker‐assisted selection (MAS). The assessment of each method was based on PCR amplification of SSR markers, DNA yield and purity, time and cost. Based on these criteria, two methods were selected as being superior to other methods. The best two methods included the standard method developed at the International Rice Research Institute (IRRI), which utilizes a sodium dodecyl sulfate extraction buffer followed by chloroform/isoamyl alcohol extraction and a previously published method using sodium hydroxide and Tris. These two methods produced nearly identical PCR amplification results. The sodium hydroxide method is considerably simpler, quicker and cheaper than the standard IRRI method, and may be particularly useful for many applications of MAS or high‐resolution mapping. This method was also adapted into an effective high throughput method utilizing 96‐well plates emphasizing its versatility.     

Molecular marker analysis of genetic variation characterizing a grasspea (Lathyrus sativus) collection from central Italy

Levels of genetic similarity characterizing 20 grasspea (Lathyrus sativus L.) populations collected in central Italy (17 populations in the Marche region and three populations in the Abruzzo region) were analysed with amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) molecular markers. Two main clusters were found: one included large‐seeded populations from farms that were not market‐oriented (named Household populations) and the second, small‐seeded populations, cultivated in market‐oriented farms (named Commercial populations). Relationships among populations collected in different regions were found, although one population of the Abruzzo region was placed between the two main clusters, suggesting a possible further genetic differentiation within this grasspea germplasm collection. Principal component analysis based on AFLP marker frequency was effective in identifying polymorphic markers showing high discriminating ability between clusters H and C. In particular, seven markers showing high positive and three markers with low negative PC1 scores showed an almost cluster‐specific distribution. These results will be useful for enhancing Italian grasspea germplasm use in plant‐breeding programmes and for extending grasspea cultivation within the sustainable agricultural systems of central Italy.     

Use of multiparental inbred populations to determine allelic relationships of molecular markers

The assessment of polymorphism exhibited by molecular markers is an arduous but essential task that facilitates the use of molecular tools by breeders and geneticists. For that purpose, the value of a wheat composite population was assessed for characterizing the diversity of restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) markers developed by INRA-Génoblé. The polymorphism of 13 genomic probes was measured over a set of 80 inbred lines randomly extracted by single-seed descent from a composite-cross of 16 wheat lines. The 13 probéenzyme combinations revealed 27 loci with codominant polymorphism. As many bands were so far unmapped, the segregational analysis of the progenies appeared very suitable for complex patterns, both in determining allelic relationships and in revealing linkage between loci. Allelic diversity, band sizes and chromosomal location assessed from nullisomic-tetrasomic lines are given for the 27 loci.
