Nucleotide sequences of internal transcribed spacer 2 (ITS-2) of nuclear DNA were obtained from 58 adult worms Fasciola hepatica and F. gigantica of naturally infected cattle and sheep in Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, Armenia, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan and Tajikistan. No variation was observed between 43 liver flukes F. hepatica from Russia, Belarus, Ukraine, Armenia and Turkmenistan. Only one specimen from Armenia had a single unique transversion C-G (0.3% variation). F. gigantica from Turkmenistan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan differed at four nucleotide transitions (1.1% variations). For comparative purpose, the ITS-2 sequences of two species from Europe, Africa, Asia, America, Australia and Oceania were used and evolution history of ITS-2 sequences of Fasciola species was reconstructed with statistical parsimony network (SPN) method. The relationships between F. hepatica and F. gigantica from different regions were discussed.
Social monogamy, considered rare in mammals, has been described in two species of beaver, the Eurasion beaver (Castor fiber), and the North American beaver (Castor Canadensis). Social monogamy, however, does not necessarily imply genetic monogamy. For example, in group living mammals, females may engage in extra-pair copulations as a result of increased female mate choice opportunities. Recently, following genetic analysis, a wide range of genetic relationships among colony members have been documented in the North American beaver, including extra-pair paternity. Here, we used microsatellite loci to provide parentage estimates from colonies of the Eurasian beaver in the Kirov region, Russia. No evidence for the presence of any extra-pair young was detected. However, in two cases, we found a pair of unrelated males inhabiting a single colony. Our results suggest that while colonies may comprise both related and unrelated individuals, the genetic mating system appears to match that of the previously inferred social monogamy.
The objective of this study was to estimate genetic correlations of lactose percentage and urea concentration in milk with conformation traits related to udder and legs of Polish Holstein-Friesian cows. Data consisted of 5,813 test-day records and type scores of 791 primiparous cows. The analysis involved two descriptive traits (udder, feet and legs, scored from 50 to 100) and 11 linearly scored traits (describing udder: fore udder height, rear udder height, central ligament, udder depth, udder width, fore teat placement, teat length, rear teat placement; describing legs: rear legs - side view, foot angle, rear legs - rear view; on a scale of 1 to 9). Genetic correlations were calculated based on (co)variances estimated using the Bayesian method via Gibbs sampling and the multitrait animal model. Genetic correlations between lactose content and conformation traits ranged from -0.18 to 0.23, while those between milk urea concentration and conformation traits ranged between -0.02 and 0.43, respectively. Absolute values of average genetic correlations with daily lactose percentage exceeded 0.15 only for udder (descriptive trait) and several linearly scored traits, i.e. central ligament, udder depth, rear teat placement, and rear legs - rear view. Milk urea content was weakly or moderately genetically correlated with six type traits: udder, and five linearly scored traits: fore udder height, central ligament, udder width, teat length, and rear legs - side view. Absolute values of genetic correlations between these traits exceeded 0.15. Our results showed that type traits connected with udder were more highly genetically correlated with both lactose and milk urea contents than type traits describing legs. It meant that an increase in both lactose percentage and urea concentration in milk might be expected as an indirect response to selection for better udder, whereas selection for improvement of legs would not affect lactose percentage and milk urea content.
Bacterial speck of tomato caused by Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato appeared to be recently the most important disease on tomato in Poland. The genetic relationships among four Polish strains of race 0 P. syringae pv. tomato of different origin, isolated from tomato plants, were examined by RAPD and PCR-RFLP techniques. Amplification of bacterial DNA using 33 primers with RAPD technique showed, that similarity of strains expressed by the Nei-Li coefficient was very high (above 0.8). Next, the restriction analysis of amplified region ITS with the use of 5 endonucleases revealed, that profiles obtained from electrophoretic separation of DNA fragments were also very similar. On the basis of those analyses it was concluded that all strains tested constituted a closely related group. However, they showed various level of virulence as was demonstrated on the inoculated leaves of tomato plants growing in the greenhouse.
In a population of Rhode Island White hens heritability of egg formation, clutch characters and traditional selection traits as well as the genetic and phenotypic correlations between them were estimated via multitrait animal model. Over 1300 birds and about 4000 birds were recorded in two consecutive generations for oviposition time and traditional traits, respectively. The heritability estimates obtained for age at first egg (h2=0.42), egg weight (h2=0.50) and body weight (h2=0.42) were considerably higher than those for initial egg production (h2=0.22), clutch traits (h2 between 0.11 and 0.23) and oviposition time (h2 between 0.13 and 0.19). Both genetic and phenotypic correlations between clutch traits and traditional selection traits were low, except for initial egg production and maximal clutch length (rg=0.40 and rp=0.38). As expected, negative correlations were registered for number of clutches and average clutch length. It indicates an opportunity of selection aimed at improvement of egg production persistence by an increase in the average clutch size. Oviposition time was favourably correlated with traditional selection criteria.
Paeonia sect. Moutan is a wide known ornamental plant in the world. The objective of this study was to provide the theoretical basis for scientific preservation and utilization of tree peony resources of Hunan province of China. Simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers were applied to reveal the genetic diversity and relationship of 21 tree peony resources and 45 domestic and foreign tree peony cultivars. Clear bands, the size of which ranged from 115 bp to 379 bp, were detected with 14 primers. In total, 90 alleles were detected and the number of alleles detected with one primer varied between 5 and 13; the number of effective alleles ranged from 1.183 to 2.070; the polymorphism ratio of each locus was 100%. The observed heterozygosity, which ranged from 0.120 to 0.851 with an average of 0.532, was larger than the expected one, which ranged from 0.090 to 0.470 with an average of 0.300. Shannon index ranged from 0.137 to 0.695 and fixation index ranged from −0.332 to −0.869. The results show abundant genetic diversity in tree peony of Hunan province and SSR markers distinguishing homonymous tree peony resources successfully.
A total of 15 isolates of B. tulipae collected from home grown tulips without chemical protection and two commercial tulip plantations were examined by RAPD fingerprint analysis. The first tulip plantation was protected by bulb treatment and foliage spraying with fungicides in the growing period and the second plantation - only by the application of fungicides in the growing period. In the previous study, a set of isolates obtained from a plantation with an extensive use of fungicides dem­onstrated a higher pathogenicity level measured by the inhibition of plant growth, the percentage of bulb and root necrosis in flower pot tests on forced tulips, and by the necrosis size in tests on leaf disks. The relationships between the groups and among isolates were determined by cluster analysis of mean character differences using UPGMA and NJ methods. Similarity index values ranged from 0.872 to 1; on average, the index value was 0.933. A mean similarity of genotypes indicated the highest genotype uniformity of isolates obtained from a plantation with the extensive use of fungicides. 3 groups of clusters, could be observed in the obtained dendrograms. The first cluster contains exclusively genotypes of isolates obtained from a plantation with an extensive use of fungicides, the second one only genotypes of isolates obtained from a plantation protected only by the application of fungicides in the growing period and the third - one genotype of previous group of isolates and four genotypes of isolates obtained from home grown tulips without chemical protection. The most distinct differentiation between the groups of isolates was observed by the amplification using primers G4, H20 and J13. The results of this study revealed genetic similarity between isolates which were obtained from chemically protected plantations and demonstrated a higher degree of pathogenicity in comparison to the isolates which were obtained from unprotected plants and showed a lower degree of pathogenicity.
