ABSTRACT
Objective To establish a genetic monitoring method for laboratory quails.Methods Quail microsatellite loci were searched in the literature,and microsatellite DNA loci suitable for quails were screened by an interspecific transfer method in closely related species,namely chickens and ducks.Quail liver DNA was extracted as a template,and the corresponding loci were screened by PCR amplification and agarose gel electrophoresis.On the basis of amplification of the selected microsatellite loci,the number of alleles,polymorphisms,and microsatellite loci combinations for quail genetic quality detection were selected and detection method were developed.Results We preliminary determined 23 microsatellite loci for genetic monitoring of closed-colony laboratory quails.Conclusions A genetic monitoring method for laboratory quails was preliminary developed.
ABSTRACT
O objetivo do presente trabalho foi avaliar a variabilidade genética de larvas e alevinos de piracanjuba em programa de repovoamento. Foram coletadas 180 larvas de piracanjuba de três dias e 90 alevinos de três meses de idade. Foram avaliados cinco loci microssatélites, os quais produziram 19 alelos. Não houve presença de alelos raros nem perdas de alelos ao longo do período. A heterozigosidade observada foi superior nas larvas em relação aos alevinos. Houve desvio no equilíbrio de Hardy-Weinberg na maioria dos loci em ambos os grupos. O coeficiente de endogamia foi positivo em ambos os grupos, sendo a média dos alevinos superior em relação às larvas. O excesso de heterozigotos foi significativo no modelo Stepwise Mutation Model para os alevinos, indicando a possibilidade de efeito gargalo recente. Conclui-se que, apesar da adequada variabilidade genética encontrada, os valores do coeficiente de endogamia e a possibilidade de efeito gargalo nos alevinos atentam para a necessidade de constante monitoramento genético desses estoques antes da liberação no ambiente.(AU)
The objective of this study was to evaluate the genetic variability of Piracanjuba larvae and fingerlings in restocking program. A total of 180 three-day Piracanjuba larvae and 90 three-month-old fish were sampled. Five microsatellite loci were evaluated, which produced 19 alleles. There were no rare alleles or loss of alleles over the period. The observed heterozygosity was higher in larvae compared to fingerlings. There was a deviation in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium in most loci in both groups. The inbreeding coefficient was positive in both groups, with the average of the fingerlings superior to the larvae. The excess heterozygotes were significant in the Stepwise Mutation Model for the fingerlings, indicating the possibility of a recent bottleneck effect. Despite the adequate genetic variability found, the values of the inbreeding coefficient and the possibility of bottleneck effect in the fingerlings show the need for constant genetic monitoring of these stocks prior to release into the environment.(AU)

Chinese hamster is an important laboratory animal in medical and biological researches,but the molecular genetic markers research was rarely reported.In our study the base composition,gene structure,genetic evolution and other characteristics of mitochondrial genome of Chinese hamster were analyzed using the methods of bioinformatics and comparative genomics,genetic quality detection system of Chinese hamster were also established.These results would supply genome data for animal models of human diseases,and lay the foundation for scientific evaluation and reasonable utilization.
ABSTRACT
Objective To analyse and monitor the genetic quality of closed colony NIH mice in Beijing district for the last 3 years.Methods We use biochemical genetic markers( including alkaline phosphatase -1 and the like 14 biochemical markers), selecting A and B colonies from different facilities for genetic monitoring in 2011 to study the polymorphism.And in 2014, 30 NIH mice just from B colony were monitored using the same testing and sampling methods.Results In 2011,NIH mice form both A and B facilities existed 6 polymorphic biochemical markers(Ce2,Car2, Gpi1,Es10,Gpd1,Pgm1); and NIH mice of B company also existed polymorphism in Es3 loucs.Between the 2 NIH mice colonies, there were significant difference in Es3、Gpd1、Pgm1 loci (P <0.01), and difference in Car2 locus(P <0.05).FST of the 2 colonies was 0.0406, the genetic identity was 0.9619, and the genetic distance was 0.0388.In B company, NIH mice of 2014 appeared 2 homozygous loci(Ce2 and Gpd1) when compared with NIH mice of 2011.Between the 2 NIH mice colonies, there were significant difference in Es10 and Gpd1 loci (P <0.01), and difference in Pgm1 locus(P <0.05).Fst of the 2 colonies was 0.1103, the genetic identity was 0.8847, and the Genetic distance was 0.1266.Conclusions Population isolation, breeding and selection, populationpopulation quantityquantity and generation significantly affected the genetic architecture of NIH mice.So when breeding and reserving seeds, we should strengthen the genetic monitoring of outbred NIH mice, in order to offer reliable genetic quality protection.
ABSTRACT
Analisou-se a diversidade genética de estoques de reprodutores de Tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum), mediante o uso de marcador RAPD, utilizando-se 10 primers para analisar 30 amostras do estoques de reprodutores das pisciculturas de Boa Esperança e Vale Verde, localizadas no Estado de Rondônia. A porcentagem de fragmentos polimórficos e o índice de diversidade genética de Shannon foram altos nos dois estoques de reprodutores. O estoque de reprodutores de Boa Esperança apresentou um fragmento exclusivo. A diferenciação genética foi baixa e o número de migrantes por geração foi alto entre os estoques de reprodutores. O dendrograma não separou os indivíduos dos estoques de reprodutores em grupos distintos. Há alta variabilidade genética nos estoques de reprodutores, um pouco inferior no estoque de Vale Verde, e há grande proximidade genética entre os indivíduos dos estoques de reprodutores.
The genetic diversity of tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum) broodstocks from two hatchery station in Rondônia State was studied by the RAPD marker. Ten primers were used to analyze 30 broodstocks samples from the hatchery stations of Boa Esperança and Vale Verde. The polymorphic fragments percentage and Shannon genetic diversity index were high in the two broodstocks. The Boa Esperança broodstock presented an exclusive fragment. The genetic differentiation was low and the number of migrants per generation was high among the broodstocks. The dendrogram did not separate the broodstocks individuals in different groups. The results indicate a high genetic variability in the broodstocks, being a little bit lower in the Vale Verde broodstock. Besides, there is a genetic proximity among the broodstocks.

By means of the dialysis-type method of molecular species hybridization the individual differ ences of polypeptide chains of globin of SMMC/B (abbreviated as B) mice at the filial generations of F28 and F34, and at the same parental generation Bp (?) and Bp ( + ) as well as F35 (Bf) were investigated. The results of hybridization between mouse Hb and sheep Hb are as follows: All the hybrid groups exhibited four zones on polyacrylamide gel electrophoretogram, but all the control groups only two zones. The comparison of electrophoretograms showed that the electrophoretic positions of the new components were the same, indicating ? and ? chains assayed were quite close to each other, and no significant differences among individual and intergenerations were observed in B mice globins. By electrophoretogram analysis of the genetic expression products, we might distinguish preliminarily the genetic variation of ?- and ?-genes.
