线粒体D-loop序列变异与东方鲀属鱼类系统发育

东方鲀属的红鳍东方鲀(Takifugu rubripes)是后基因组时代的一种重要模式生物。本研究中,利用东方鲀属11种鱼类(18尾)的D-loop基因序列,对东方鲀属鱼类的系统发育关系进行研究。经序列比对排定后,分析中D-loop序列有841个位点,其中395个位点为可变位点,267个位点为系统发育信息位点。分别采用邻接法(NJ)、最大简约法(MP)、最大似然法(ML)和贝叶斯方法构建了分子系统树。研究结果表明:(1)东方鲀属鱼类为一单系类群;(2)由横纹东方鲀(T. oblongus)和铅点东方鲀(T

线粒体DNA d-loop序列变异与鳅鮀亚科鱼类系统发育

对鳅鮀亚科(Gobiobotinae)2个属8个种10个个体线粒体控制区d-loop全序列进行了测定.以(鱼丹)亚科斑马鱼为外类群,对鳅鮀及鲤科(Cyprinidae)一些亚科代表种鱼类进行了系统发育分析.结果显示,鳅鮀鱼类是一个单系类群,与鮈和细鲫有较近的亲缘关系.从系统发育的角度看,鳅鮀亚科应归属于鮈亚科(Gobioninae).研究结果支持鳅鮀亚科分为异鳔鳅鳅属(Xenophyso-gobio)和鳅鮀属(Gobiobtia).

Mitochondrial d-loop sequence variation and phylogeny of gobiobotine fishes

The mitochondrial DNA control region is amplified and sequenced from 8 genera and 10 species of gobiobotine fishes. The phylogenetic tree of Gobiobotinae and some representative species of other Cyprinid subfamilies obtained by the method of neighborhood joining, maximum likelihood and maximum parsimony with Danio rerio as an outgroup indicates that Gobiobotinae fishes are a monophyletic group which is close to Gobioninae subfamily. Gobiobotinae should be included into subfamily Gobioninae in terms of phylogenetic analysis. The research result supports that Gobiobotinae can be divided into genus Xenophysogobio and Gobiobotia. Xenophysogabio is the most primitive genera in the subfamily.

牦牛的分类学地位及起源研究:mtDNA D-loop序列的分析

牦牛的起源与属级分类学地位至今仍然存在一定的争议.我们测定了家养牦牛和野生牦牛线粒体控制区(D-loop)序列,并以此构建牦牛和牛属、野牛属、水牛属以及非洲水牛属相关种的系统发育树.研究结果表明线粒体D-loop区与Cyt b基因序列在构建牛族的系统发育具有同样重要的价值.系统发育关系显示野牛属的灭绝种草原野牛与现存种美洲野牛先聚合为一单系群,然后再和牦牛形成一单系分支,表明牦牛与野牛属的草原野牛、美洲野牛亲缘关系最近,具有最近的共同祖先,而与牛属的其它亚洲物种亲缘关系较远.因此,本研究不支持将牦牛独立为牦牛属--Poephagus,牛属与野牛属在分类上也应合并为一个属.基于上述研究结果和化石证据,我们进一步对牦牛起源的历史背景进行了讨论,认为牦牛与野牛属的分化是由于第四纪气候变化在欧亚大陆发生的,野牛通过白令陆桥进入北美;冰期结束后,由于欧亚大陆其它地区温度升高,牦牛只能局限分布在较为寒冷的青藏高原;而野牛属在北美先后分化为草原野牛和美洲野牛,前者可能是后者的直接祖先.

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 D2loop Variation and Genetic Background of Brahman Cattle

对10 头原种婆罗门牛mtDNA D2loop 全序列912 bp 测序, 婆罗门牛遗传多样性丰富, 检测到的9 种单 倍型兼有瘤牛( B . indicus) 与普通牛( B . taurus) 的遗传背景, 核苷酸变异率为6125 % , 单倍型多态度为01978 ± 01054 , 核苷酸多态度为01014 30 ±01008 68。所有单倍型聚为明显的两大分支, 婆罗门牛的大部分单倍型为普通 牛单倍型类群, 并占绝对优势(90 %) , 仅Brah26 与亚洲瘤牛聚在一起, 属于亚洲瘤牛线粒体单倍型, 表明婆罗门 牛的确是集亚洲瘤牛、欧洲普通牛等优良特性于一身(易产犊、产肉性能好、耐热与体表寄生虫等) 的瘤牛品种之 一。育种学家引种瘤牛的目的是改善当地牛的生产力与适应性, 现代普通牛表现出明显又普遍的瘤牛渐渗现象。 对现代的瘤牛品种而言, 除亚洲瘤牛品种外, 普通牛对其他瘤牛品种育成的贡献同样高。支持瘤牛( B . indicus ) 为独立驯化、起源于印度次大陆的假说。

中华鲟(Acipenser sinensis)及相关种类的mtDNA控制区串联重复序列及其进化意义

采用PCR技术和DNA测序技术,发现了我国一级珍稀保护动物中华鲟(Acipenser sinensis)线粒体DNA(mtDNA)的控制区(D-loop)存在数目不等的串联重复序列,该重复序列造成了中华鲟广泛的异质性现象。从分子水平进行了不同类型重复序列变化规律的研究,同时还初探了重复序列在我国其它几种鲟鱼类的存在情况,发现在白鲟(Psephurus gladius)、达氏鲟(A. dabryanus)和史氏鲟(A. schrenckii)均存在类似的重复序列结构。

Sequence variation and genetic diversity in the giant panda

About 336-444 bp mitochondrial D-loop region and tRNA gene were sequenced for 40 individuals of the giant panda which were collected from Mabian, Meigu, Yuexi, Baoxing, Pingwu, Qingchuan, Nanping and Baishuijiang, respectively. 9 haplotypes were found in 21 founders. The results showed that the giant panda has low genetic variations, and that there is no notable genetic isolation among geographical populations. The ancestor of the living giant panda population perhaps appeared in the late Pleistocene, and unfortunately, might have suffered bottle-neck attacks. Afterwards, its genetic diversity seemed to recover to same extent.

Mitochondrial DNA variation, effective female population size and population history of the endangered Chinese sturgeon, Acipenser sinensis

The anadromous Chinese sturgeon (Acipenser sinensis), mainly endemic to the Yangtze River in China, is an endangered fish species. The natural population has declined since the Gezhouba Dam blocked its migratory route to the spawning grounds in 1981. In the near future, the completion of the Three Gorges Dam, the world's largest hydroelectric project, may further impact this species by altering the water flow of the Yangtze River. Little is currently known about the population genetic structure of the Chinese sturgeon. In this study, DNA sequence data were determined from the control region (D-loop) of the mitochondrial genome of adult sturgeons (n = 106) that were collected between 1995-2000. The molecular data were used to investigate genetic variation, effective female population size and population history of the Chinese sturgeon in the Yangtze River. Our results indicate that the reduction in abundance did not change genetic variation of the Chinese sturgeon, and that the population underwent an expansion in the past. AMOVA analysis indicated that 98.7% of the genetic variability occurred within each year's spawning populations, the year of collection had little influence on the diversity of annual temporary samples. The relative large effective female population size (N-ef) indicates that good potential exists for the recovery of this species in the future. Strikingly, the ratio of N-ef to the census female population size (N-f) is unusually high (0.77-0.93). This may be the result of a current bottleneck in the population of the Chinese sturgeon that is likely caused by human intervention.

Molecular phylogeny of Nycticebus inferred from mitochondrial genes

Researchers are still discussing the classification of Nycticebus. We established a molecular phylogeny covering all recognized taxa in Nycticebus to provide information for further evaluation. We sequenced partial D-loop (ca. 390 bp) and cytochrome b gen
