云南4个少数民族的随机扩增多态DNA分析

1990年,Williams和Welsh领导的2个小组几乎同时独立地发展起来一项新技术,即随机扩增多态DNA(Random amplified polymorphic DNA,RAPD).该技术通过PCR进行DNA扩增,所用引物是G+C含量为50%—70%的单个随机短引物,这些引物在一定的退火条件下能与基因组DNA中的互补顺序配对,启动DNA的合成.RAPD具有以下特点:(1)无需预先知道受试有机体基因组DNA的序列,因而能应用于所用的生物体;(2)绝大多数

滇金丝猴的随机扩增多态DNA与遗传多样性分析

对6只笼养滇金丝猴(Rhinopithecus bieti)进行了随机扩增多态DNA(RAPD)及遗传多样性分析.用45个10bp随机短引物对每只滇金丝猴的基因组DNA进行了扩增,平均每个个体观察到的RAPD标记约为130个左右,单个引物获得的标记在1～7个之间.80%的RAPD标记表现为无多态的单型性.个体间的遗传距离为0.052,表明笼养滇金丝猴群体的遗传多样性很低.此研究结果与在蛋白多态研究中得到的一致.贫乏的遗传多样性一方面使目前处于濒危境地的滇金丝猴生存情况更加危险,同时其本身也可能是造成目前滇金丝猴濒危的原因之一.另外,通过成对的遗传距离分析,构建了这一群滇金丝猴的谱系关系图,提出了让遗传距离较远的个体间进行交配的笼养繁育计划.

中国黑冠长臂猿的遗传多样性及其分子系统学研究--非损伤取样DNA序列分析

采用非损伤性DNA基因分型技术(Noninvasive DNA genotyping),对我国珍稀灵长类动物黑冠长臂猿11个个体的线粒体DNA(mtDNA)控制区159bp的片段进行了序列分析。根据分子系统树,结合形态学方面的资料,提出对中国黑冠长臂猿新的分类观点,即现生的中国黑冠长臂猿应为3个种(H. concalor; H. leucogenys; H. hainanus),其中 H. concolor含3个亚种(H.c.concolor, H.c.jingdongensis, H.c.furvogaster)。同时,针对该类珍稀动物保护,提出将上述黑冠长臂猿的种和亚种作为不同的进化显著性单元(Evolutionarilly Sigificant Units, ESU)进行保护和遗传管理。

鹿鞭的微量DNA提取及序列鉴定

采用微量DNA提取技术,从梅花鹿血、毛、鹿鞭、鹿茸、牛鞭、驴鞭中提取DNA,以线粒体DNA细胞色素b通用引物L14841和H15149扩增约307bpDNA片段, 扩增产物纯化后采用双脱氧链终止法测定其序列。结果证明:梅花鹿毛、血和鹿鞭的DNA序列完全一致; 而所谓的“鹿茸”则与其有较大的差异。用所测序列以简约法PAUP3.1.1 程序构建的分子系统树与传统分类系统相吻合。

云南绵羊线粒体DNA遗传多态性研究

该研究用12种识别六碱基的限制性内切酶对来自云南省3个地方绵羊品种11个样本的线粒体DNA(mtDNA)进行了限制性片段长度多态性分析(RFLP)，结果表明，云南绵羊群体平均核苷歧异度为0.086%，平均遗传距离为0.004，说明mtDNA变异度很低，遗传多样性贫乏，提示云南绵羊可能起源于同一个共同祖先;昭通绵羊与德钦绵羊距离较远，大约分歧于30万年前，德钦绵羊与腾冲绵羊大约分歧于11万年前，而腾冲绵羊与昭通绵羊也于18万年前发生分歧。

安徽麝线粒体DNA细胞色素b基因全长序列分析

对安徽麝模式皮张标本进行了线粒体DNA细胞色素b基因全长序列分析。研究结果表明,安徽麝同麝属中其他种的遗传分化已经相当明显。分子系统学的分析表明,安徽麝是一个单系群,它同麝属其他种的DNA序列差异已达到种间分化的程度。因此,线粒体DNA序列的证据支持将安徽麝列为麝属中一有效种(Moschus anhuiensis),而不是前人认为的原麝或林麝的亚种。

MULTIPLE GENOTYPES OF MITOCHONDRIAL-DNA WITHIN A HORSE POPULATION FROM A SMALL REGION IN YUNNAN PROVINCE OF CHINA

mtDNA genotypes of six domestic horses (three adult short horses whose heights are under 1 m and three common domestic horses) from a small region of 15 km(2) in Malipo county of Yunnan province of China were investigated by the technique of restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) with restriction endonucleases which recognize 6-bp sequences. An average of fragments for an individual was obtained. Unlike other domestic animals, this population of horses exhibits high mtDNA genetic diversity. Each of the six horses has a specific mtDNA genotype showing a pattern of multiple maternal origins, as suggested by fossil and literature records. We think the population of horses is an amazing seed-resource pool of horses and hence deserves to be paid more attention from the view of conservation genetics. However it is also remarkable that we did not find any typical mtDNA genetic markers which would discriminate between short horses and common domestic horses.

Genetic diversity and population history of the red panda (Ailurus fulgens) as inferred from mitochondrial DNA sequence variations

The red panda (Ailurus fulgens) is one of the flagship species in worldwide conservation and is of special interest in evolutionary studies due to its taxonomic uniqueness. We sequenced a 236-bp fragment of the mitochondrial D-loop region in a sample of 5

Mitochondrial DNA hypervariable region-1 sequence variation and phylogeny of the concolor gibbons, Nomascus

The still little known concolor gibbons are represented by 14 taxa (five species, nine subspecies) distributed parapatrically in China, Myanmar, Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia. To set the stage for a phylogeographic study of the genus we examined DNA sequence

Assessment of cattle genetic introgression into domestic yak populations using mitochondrial and microsatellite DNA markers

Hybridization between yak Poephagus grunniens and taurine Bos taurus or indicine B. indicus cattle has been widely practiced throughout the yak geographical range, and gene flow is expected to have occurred between these species. To assess the impact of cattle admixture on domestic yak, we examined 1076 domestic yak from 29 populations collected in China, Bhutan, Nepal, India, Pakistan, Kyrgyzstan, Mongolia and Russia using mitochondrial DNA and 17 autosomal microsatellite loci. A cattle diagnostic marker-based analysis reveals cattle-specific mtDNA and/or autosomal microsatellite allele introgression in 127 yak individuals from 22 populations. The mean level of cattle admixture across the populations, calculated using allelic information at 17 autosomal microsatellite loci, remains relatively low (mY(cattle) = 2.66 +/- 0.53% and Q(cattle) = 0.69 +/- 2.58%), although it varies a lot across populations as well as among individuals within population. Although the level of cattle admixture shows a clear geographical structure, with higher levels of admixture in the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau and Mongolian and Russian regions, and lower levels in the Himalayan and Pamir Plateau region, our results indicate that the level of cattle admixture is not significantly correlated with the altitude across geographical regions as well as within geographical region. Although yak-cattle hybridization is primarily driven to produce F-1 hybrids, our results show that the subsequent gene flow between yak and cattle took place and has affected contemporary genetic make-up of domestic yak. To protect yak genetic integrity, hybridization between yak and cattle should be tightly controlled.
