三江白猪线粒体DNA-RFLP的分析

采用22种限制性内切酶分析了三江白猪线粒体DNA的多态性。结果表明：在60头个体中检出30种限制性态型．归结为7种基因单倍型；其间的差异来自少数限制性位点的突变。单倍型间平均遗传距离为0．35%，群体遗传多态程度为0．044％。三江白猪遗传多样性非常贫乏，说明三江白猪与地方种猪起源于一个共同祖先，在品种形成早期受到创立者效应的制约。     

DNA barcoding for identification of cryptic species in the field and existing museum collections: a case study of Aethomys and Micaelamys (Rodentia: Muridae)

DNA barcoding has been proposed as a method for species identification. However, this method has been criticised for its over-reliance on a single mitochondrial gene. In this study, four mitochondrial gene regions and one nuclear gene region were used to investigate their different abilities to identify tissue associated with museum specimens of Aethomys chrysophilus, Aethomys ineptus and Micaelamys namaquensis. Aethomys chrysophilus and the more recently elevated A. ineptus are indistinguishable on morphological grounds; however, their ranges are largely parapatric with only one syntopic locality currently known. All of the mitochondrial gene regions were able to separate M. namaquensis from A. chrysophilus and A. ineptus, but they varied in their abilities to resolve differences between A. chrysophilus and A. ineptus. The sequence results identified a specimen from KwaZulu-Natal that was misclassified and should have been identified as A. ineptus. Seven specimens that had not been reclassified following the elevation of A. ineptus to species level were identified as A. ineptus. Individuals of A. chrysophilus from Malawi could not be classified as either A. chrysophilus or A. ineptus, and may be a hybrid or a new, distinct species. This study indicates that DNA barcoding may be used to separate M. namaquensis from A. chrysophilus and A. ineptus, and although it was not able to separate A. chrysophilus and A. ineptus, it did indicate specimens from Malawi may be a new cryptic species.     

对两个玉米雄性不育系的细胞质分类研究

本文从普通遗传学、植物病理学和分子生物学的水平对玉米雄花不育系—元徐cms—小黄和恩二激cms—大黄进行了综合性的分类研究。大田的育性反应表明，这两个不育系的育性恢复受一对显性基因控制。对花粉染色的观察发现F1可育花粉与败育花粉基本上呈1：1分离。用小斑病T小种接种，这两个不育系不表现专化感染。通过mtDNA的分析

Genetic diversity decreases as population density declines: Implications of temporal variation in mitochondrial haplotype frequencies in a natural population of Tscherskia triton

Although the spatial genetic differentiation that occurs in animal populations has been extensively studied, information on temporal variations in genetic structure and diversity is still lacking, especially for animals with oscillating populations. In the present study, we used the mtDNA D‐loop sequence to assess the temporal genetic variation in samples from six successive years for the greater long‐tailed hamster, Tscherskia triton. Sampling was carried out between 1998 and 2003 in cropland on the North China Plain, China. A total of 108 individuals were analyzed. The temporal samples showed a high level of genetic diversity. Substantial genetic changes in haplotype frequencies over time were detected for the hamster population. Random genetic drift and migration are likely to be the major factors responsible for the observed temporal pattern. The genetic diversity of the hamster population was higher in years with higher population density, and lower in years with lower population density. The result supports our hypothesis that genetic diversity decreases when population density declines in animals whose population oscillates greatly between years. The combined effects of inbreeding and genetic drift caused by reproduction, dispersal and population size might play important roles in the observed changes in genetic structure and diversity between years.     

Species identification method for <Emphasis Type="Italic">Scombrops boops</Emphasis> and <Emphasis Type="Italic">Scombrops gilberti</Emphasis> based on polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis of mitochondrial DNA

ABSTRACT:   Gnomefish Scombrops boops and Scombrops gilberti are commercially important fishes in Japan, but these species are often confused in the markets because of their morphological similarity. To identify these two species, we performed nucleotide sequencing and restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis on 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene and the control region in mitochondrial DNA. Five and 12 nucleotide substitutions were observed between species in the 777-bp 16S rRNA gene and 471-bp control region, respectively. Diagnostic restriction sites for discriminating between S. boops and S. gilberti were found in the 16S rRNA gene, but not in the control region. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR)–RFLP analysis using two enzymes, Eco NI and Mva I, clearly discriminated between S. boops and S. gilberti identified by meristic characters. The PCR–RFLP analysis identified most of the 168 Scombrops young caught in the coastal waters of the Izu and Miura peninsulas as S. boops , suggesting that S. gilberti juveniles are rare in this area.     

淮北灰驴mtDNA D-loop区遗传多样性及起源分析

为分析淮北灰驴遗传多样性与母系起源,从大群中随机选择10匹淮北灰驴,对其mtDNA D-loop区部分序列进行测序,与GenBank已公布的一些驴品种的mtDNA D-loop区序列进行比对分析,并探讨淮北灰驴的遗传多样性与母系起源。结果显示,在获得的407 bp D-loop碱基序列中,共检测出28处变异位点,8处碱基对的转换以及1处颠换,其核苷酸多样性（Pi）为0.021 95,单倍型多样性（Hd）为0.778,平均核苷酸差异（K）为8.911,显示淮北灰驴较为丰富的遗传多样性。从D-loop区核苷酸序列的5种单倍型分析,发现淮北灰驴可能有2个母系起源,遗传距离表明,淮北灰驴与克罗地亚家驴之间的遗传距离较近。研究结果从分子水平上为淮北灰驴的遗传资源保护和开发利用提供了参考。     

辽东湾斑海豹线粒体苏氨酸和脯氨酸及控制区部分序列分析

通过PCR产物测序法,测定了46只辽东湾斑海豹线粒体DNA的一段包括部分苏氨酸和脯氨酸tRNA基因及部分控制区的717 bp序列,得到17个序列单元型。与港海豹相比,所有辽东湾斑海豹17个单元型在控制区序列中都有2处缺失,是区分港海豹和斑海豹的种间分子标记。与日本海和鄂霍次克海区斑海豹m tDNA相同片段进行比较研究,发现辽东湾斑海豹的线粒体控制区DNA的单元型比例相对较少,遗传多样性水平相对较低。辽东湾斑海豹m tDNA的16296位点即苏氨酸tRNA基因序列的最后一位有1个C碱基的插入,16607位点存在T/C转换,这两个变异位点是鉴别辽东湾斑海豹与日本及鄂霍次克海区斑海豹的重要分子标记。初步表明,辽东湾斑海豹与日本海、鄂霍次克海斑海豹是属于不同的地理种群,或者辽东湾斑海豹同这两个海区斑海豹未发生基因交流或者雌性个体的相互交流。
