Growth of triploid oyster, Crassostrea madrasensis (Preston)

The performance of I and II meiotic triploids and control oysters (Crassostrea madrasensis) reared at Tuticorin Bay was compared to determine if the improvements in the growth of edible oysters were additive to faster growth in triploids. After a grow‐out period of 12 months, both mean whole weights and shell heights were in order I meiotic triploid>II meiotic triploid>control. Mean whole weights and shell height of different oyster lines were all significantly different (P<0.05). On an average, larger morphological traits indicated that growth improvements from triploids were additive, and throughout the study triploid oysters maintained faster growth rate than their diploid siblings. Condition index and adductor muscle diameter of both triploids were higher than those of control.

鳙异源雌核发育子代的形态学研究

本研究在已成功利用鳙(Aristichthys nobilis)(♀)×兴国红鲤(Cyprinus carpio Var.Xingguo)(♂)远缘杂交诱导鳙异源雌核发育的基础上,测定了鳙异源雌核发育子代及其母本鳙和父本兴国红鲤3组实验鱼的7项可量性状,计算其框架系数,并采用单因素方差分析、判别分析、主成分分析和聚类分析对三组鱼框架系数的差异和距离进行了分析。结果显示3组鱼多项框架系数间均具显著差异,雌核发育子代较母本表现为体型更高,头更长。判别分析能将3组鱼明显判别分为3个区域,其中雌核发育子代和兴国红鲤的判别准确率均为100%,母本鳙群体判别准确率为94.4%,总判别准确率为97.9%。主成分分析结果显示,可提取2个主成分,其中主成分1能解释64.504%的变异,主成分2能解释21.292%的变异,二者合并能解释85.796%的变异。聚类分析表明雌核发育子代形态学可量性状指标更接近于母本鳙,与父本兴国红鲤距离较远。本研究结果表明雌核发育后,鳙异源雌核发育子代主要可量性状与双亲产生显著差异,但更接近于母本。     

人工诱导海水鱼类雌核发育的研究进展

近三十年来,国内外海水鱼类的增养殖业发展迅速,尤其以提高增养殖鱼类产量和质量为主要目的的染色体组工程已成为海水鱼类育种的热点.作为一种实用的染色体组操作技术,雌核发育是在雌核控制下的发育,精子只作为"激活源",入卵后不形成雄核,所以后代的遗传特质仅仅来源于母性亲本.     

Genetic variability in meiotic gynogenetic muskellunge,Esox masquinongy (Mitchell), estimated from segregation of microsatellite alleles

Muskellunge, Esox masquinongy, is an important recreational freshwater fish native to North America. Since muskellunge populations are often maintained through stocking efforts, advances in muskellunge reproductive technologies are of direct relevance to fishery enhancement. We evaluated the efficiency of inbreeding through induced meiotic diploid gynogenesis. Eggs from six female muskellunge were manually stripped and activated using ultra violet‐irradiated yellow perch, Perca flavescens, sperm. Hydrostatic pressure shocking regimes (48 263 kPa) were then applied to the eggs to prevent second polar body expulsion producing unambiguous meiotic gynogens. Six female dams and samples of 12–20 of their gynogenetic progeny were genotyped at seven polymorphic microsatellite loci. Chromosomal recombination frequencies of microsatellite loci based on retention of heterozygosity among gynogens ranged from 0.043 to 0.839 (0.576 ± 0.237). There were no statistical differences in recombination frequency among females at any of the loci. The average inbreeding coefficient (F‐value) ranged from 0.581 to 0.979, equivalent to three to fourteen generations of full‐sibling crosses respectively. The average F‐value overall was 0.712, equivalent to between five and six generations of full‐sibling crosses. Centromere map distances of the seven microsatellite loci ranged from 2.15 to 41.95 cM and meiotic gynogenesis was useful in eliminating heterozygosity at loci proximal to the centromere, but not distal. Since the age at maturity of female muskellunge is approximately 5 years, gynogenesis may pose an expeditious alternative to traditional breeding strategies for creation of homozygous pedigrees for some loci that may be outcrossed to introduce positive heterozygosity effects in the offspring.     

异源精子诱导犬齿牙鲆的雌核发育

用冷冻保存的花鲈精子作为异源精子,采用紫外线(UV)对精子进行照射使其遗传物质失活,然后与卵子进行"授精",可以刺激犬齿牙鲆鱼卵进行雌核发育,在受精后一定时间采用冷休克处理"授精"卵,抑制第二极体排出成功获得了犬齿牙鲆雌核发育二倍体鱼苗.实验表明:犬齿牙鲆同源精子经80 mJ/cm2的紫外线照射可以完全失活,冻存花鲈精子经紫外线照射后也同样具有诱导犬齿牙鲆雌核发育的能力.无论同源精子还是异源精子,最佳诱导条件为在18℃条件下,精子经80 mJ/cm2的紫外线照射,受精后4～5 min将受精卵放在3℃海水中进行冷休克处理,持续时间为45 min,同源精子和异源精子二倍体诱导分别为32.66%±7.03%和28.00%±6.48%.采用形态学、流式细胞仪DNA含量分析和微卫星标记技术对雌核发育鱼苗进行了分析,证明了雌核发育鱼苗为雌核发育二倍体.     

两个人工雌核发育系鲢近交F1遗传多样性的RAPD分析

采用RAPD技术对两个人工雌核发育系鲢近交F1遗传距离、遗传相似度及群体遗传多样性进行分析,用普通鲢和鲤作对照。结果表明：GSCⅠ、Ⅱ系近交F1系内个体间平均遗传相似度分别为0．9722、0．9807,高于对照鲢和鲤的0．9546、0．8727;两系近交F1的遗传多样性指数分别为0．0629、0．0529,低于对照鲢和鲤的0．1018和0．2132,表明GSCⅠ、Ⅱ系系内近交的F1保持了较高的纯度。LIPGMA和NJ系统树清晰反映了两个系近交F1与对照组个体问的相互关系。26个随机引物的RAPD扩增结果显示,5个引物OPG04、OPG17、OPP01、OPM11、OPM16可以扩增出区分两个系近交F1的特异标志带。     

AgNO3对甜瓜离体胚囊发育的影响

许多作物的花药、小孢子培养技术被广泛的应用到实际育种工作中。与花药培养相比,离体培养子房或胚珠诱导单倍体植株具有独特的优势,在某些作物上诱导率和绿苗率较高。早在80年代,水稻、大麦、玉米、青稞和马铃薯等都已建立了未受精胚珠单倍体离体培养技术,而对于葫芦科植物至今尚未找到一条高效的单倍体诱导方法。1999年,FICCADENTI进行甜瓜未授粉胚珠离体培养,得到了单倍体植株。2003年,LOTFI采用FICCADENTI的培养方法,对不同甜瓜品种进行诱导,结果只得到了3棵再生植株,在未进行倍性鉴定之前死亡。至今,国内甜瓜离体雌核发育诱导单倍体研究尚未报道。     

栉孔扇贝人工雌核发育的细胞学观察

运用荧光显微镜观察了栉孔扇贝正常卵子与雌核发育卵子在受精和成熟分裂过程中的核相变化。结果表明,尽管紫外线照射没有影响受精卵的成熟分裂以及雌性、雄性原核的形成,但使雌核卵的发育速度出现明显的滞缓。在第1次卵裂中期,雌核发育卵子中的雄性原核没有像雌性原核那样形成染色体,而是浓缩为一染色质小体(DCB),游离在细胞质中,不参与核分裂。胞质分裂结束时,DCB位于2个卵裂球之一的细胞质内或在赤道板处被分割成两部分。实验结果首次提供了栉孔扇贝雌核发育的细胞学证据。
