Objective: Tibetan pigs, an excellent species unique to China, face serious threats, which in turn affects the development and utilization of the outstanding advantages of plateau hypoxia adaptability and reduces their genetic diversity. Therefore, a discussion of measures to conserve this genetic resource is necessary. The method, based on genetic diversity, genetic divergence and total genetic contribution rate of population, reflects the priority conservation order and varies depending on the three different purposes of conservation. Methods: We analyzed mitochondrial DNA control region (D-loop) variation in 1,201 individuals from nine Tibetan pig populations across five provinces and downloaded 564 mtDNA D-loop sequences from three indigenous pig breeds in Qinghai, Sichuan, and Yunnan Provinces distributed near the Tibetan pigs. Results: We analyzed three different aspects: Changdu Tibetan pigs have the highest genetic diversity, and from the perspective of genetic diversity, the priority conservation is Changdu Tibetan pigs. Hezuo Tibetan pigs have the highest genetic contribution, so the priority conservation is Hezuo Tibetan pigs in the genetic contribution aspect. Rkaze Tibetan pigs were severely affected by indigenous pig breeds, so if considering from the perspective of introgression, the priority conservation is Rkaze Tibetan pigs. Conclusion: This study evaluated genetic diversity and comprehensively assessed conservation priority from three different aspects in nine Tibetan pig populations.

The identification of pork in commercially processed meats is one of the most crucial issues in the food industry because of religious food ethics, medical purposes, and intentional adulteration to decrease production cost. This study therefore aimed to develop a method for the detection of pork adulteration in meat products using primers specific for pig mitochondrial DNA. Mitochondrial DNA sequences for pig, cattle, chicken, and sheep were obtained from GenBank and aligned. The 294-bp mitochondrial DNA D-loop region was selected as the pig target DNA sequence and appropriate primers were designed using the MUSCLE program. To evaluate primer sensitivity, pork-beef-chicken mixtures were prepared as follows: i) 0% pork-50% beef-50% chicken, ii) 1% pork-49.5% beef-49.5% chicken, iii) 2% pork-49% beef-49% chicken, iv) 5% pork-47.5% beef-47.5% chicken, v) 10% pork-45% beef-45% chicken, and vi) 100% pork-0% beef-0% chicken. In addition, a total of 35 commercially packaged products, including patties, nuggets, meatballs, and sausages containing processed chicken, beef, or a mixture of various meats, were purchased from commercial markets. The primers developed in our study were able to detect as little as 1% pork in the heat treated pork-beef-chicken mixtures. Of the 35 processed products, three samples were pork positive despite being labeled as beef or chicken only or as a beef-chicken mix. These results indicate that the developed primers could be used to detect pork adulteration in various processed meat products for application in safeguarding religious food ethics, detecting allergens, and preventing food adulteration.

This study was carried out to ascertain phylogenetic status of long-tail chicken which found recently in Korea and was presumed to be a kind of Korean Natives. 10 loci microsatellites were analysed for 449 birds of 11 groups and 2 region of mitochondrial DNA were sequenced for 135 birds of the same groups, that consist of 3 introduced breeds and 8 Korean Natives including 3 long-tail chicken. In mean numbers of alleles per locus(MNA) for microsatellites, long-tail chicken were smaller (2.60${\sim}$3.20) than the others, but in heterozygosities, were higher(0.4087${\sim}$0.5375) than others that were the same level of MNA. And in the neighbor joining bootstrap tree drawing by Nei's standard distance, they made a cluster with some Korean Native groups. All of the nucleotide sequences of mitochondrial cytochrome b gene and D-loop were classified into 23 haplotypes. In long-tail chicken, the haplotypes were 3 kinds, and were different among the groups (LTA, LTB and LTD). Resultly, it was supposed that 3 groups of the long-tail chicken be all a kind of Korean Natives.

To assess genetic diversity and maternal origin of Turkish and Iranian native chicken breeds, we analyzed the mtDNA D-loop sequences of 222 chickens from 2 Turkish (Denizli and Gerze) and 7 Iranian (White Marandi, Black Marandi, Naked Neck, Common Breed, Lari, West Azarbaijan, and New Hampshire) native chicken breeds, together with the available reference sequences of G. gallus gallus in GenBank. The haplotype diversity was estimated as $0.24{\pm}0.01$ and $0.36{\pm}0.02$ for Turkish and Iranian populations, respectively. In total, 19 haplotypes were observed from 24 polymorphic sites in Turkish and Iranian native chicken populations. Two different clades or haplogroups (A and E) were found in Turkish and Iranian chickens. Clade A haplotypes were found only in White Marandi, Common Breed and New Hampshire populations. Clade E haplotypes, which are quite common, were observed in Turkish and Iranian populations with 18 different haplotypes, of which Turkish and Iranian chickens, Clade E, haplotype 1 (TRIRE1) was a major haplotype with the frequency of 81.5% (181/222) across all breeds. Compared to red jungle fowl, Turkish and Iranian chicken breeds are closely related to each other. These results suggest that Turkish and Iranian chickens originated from the same region, the Indian subcontinent. Our results will provide reliable basic information for mtDNA haplotypes of Turkish and Iranian chickens and for studying the origin of domestic chickens.

최근 국내 오리고기 산업이 점진적으로 증가하고 있으나, 국내에서 생산되고 있는 대부분의 오리 종자는 수입에 의존하고 있는 실정이다. 이러한 의존도를 낮추기 위해서 국립축산과학원에서는 토종오리 상용화 연구를 시작하였으며, 이에 토종오리 품종 및 개체 식별의 필요성이 대두되었다. 본 연구에서는 토종오리와 백색실용오리가 다른 야생오리 품종과 얼마나 연관되어 있는지를 알아보기 위해 미토콘드리아 DNA의 D-loop control 영역의 염기서열을 이용하여 계통분석을 수행하였다. 그 결과, 토종오리와 백색실용오리는 대부분의 야생오리 품종과는 구분이 잘 되지만, 청둥오리와는 분류가 되지 않는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한, 토종오리와 백색실용오리 품종간의 분류 또한 이들 집단이 다수의 변이와 haplotype을 공유하고 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 분석 결과, 11개의 염기 변이가 확인되었으며, 이 변이들은 8개 haplotype으로 구성되어 있었다. 이 중 토종오리에서만 확인된 haplotype 2를 제외한 3개의 haplotype(haplotype number 1, 3, 4)에서 토종오리와 백색실용오리가 동일한 haplotype을 가진 반면, haplotype 5, 6, 7, 8은 백색실용오리에서만 확인되었다. 이상의 결과를 바탕으로 D-loop control 영역은 토종오리와 야생오리의 품종 구분을 위한 기초 자료로 이용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

Duroc 품종은 돼지 사육에 있어 산육성과 육질 향상을 위해 이용되고 있다. 본 연구는 육종에 많이 이용되는 Duroc 품종의 모계 특이적인 서열의 검색과 계통유전학적 유연관계의 정립을 위하여 미토콘드리아 유전체의 전체 염기서열을 결정하고 집단 내 다형성을 조사하였다. mtDNA 전체 서열의 길이는 16,584-bp 이고, D-loop과 tRNA, rRNA 유전자 영역에서는 삽입/결실이 확인되었다. 4개의 coding gene (COⅡ, COⅢ, ND3, ND4)에서 불완전한 종결코돈을, ND4L과 ND2 유전자는 선택적 개시코돈 양상을 보였다. Duroc 집단에 대한 분석 결과 조절영역에서의 특이적인 11-bp 중복 단위가 일부 개체(15.2%)에서 발견되었고, ND2의 개시코돈과 CYTB 유전자에서도 다형현상을 보였다. 각각의 유전자 영역에서의 다형성은 서로 연관되어 있었고, 그 결과 Duroc 집단은 크게 두 가지 haplotype으로 구분되었다. 계통수에서 Duroc mtDNA 서열은 유럽계열 cluster에 위치하였으나, haplotype 분석과 기존에 연구결과들을 종합해 보면 Duroc 품종은 여러 모계선조 집단에서 기원한 것으로 보이며, 유럽과 아시아 계열 모두가 품종 형성에 이용된 것으로 사료된다된 것으로 사료된다.

China has a long history of sheep (Ovis aries [O. aries]) breeding and an abundance of sheep genetic resources. Knowledge of the complete O. aries mitogenome should facilitate the study of the evolutionary history of the species. Therefore, the complete mitogenome of O. aries was sequenced and annotated. In order to characterize the mitogenomes of 3 Chinese sheep breeds (Altay sheep [AL], Shandong large-tailed sheep [SD], and small-tailed Hulun Buir sheep [sHL]), 19 sets of primers were employed to amplify contiguous, overlapping segments of the complete mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequence of each breed. The sizes of the complete mitochondrial genomes of the sHL, AL, and SD breeds were 16,617 bp, 16,613 bp, and 16,613 bp, respectively. The mitochondrial genomes were deposited in the GenBank database with accession numbers KP702285 (AL sheep), KP981378 (SD sheep), and KP981380 (sHL sheep) respectively. The organization of the 3 analyzed sheep mitochondrial genomes was similar, with each consisting of 22 tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes (12S rRNA and 16S rRNA), 13 protein-coding genes, and 1 control region (D-loop). The NADH dehydrogenase subunit 6 (ND6) and 8 tRNA genes were encoded on the light strand, whereas the rest of the mitochondrial genes were encoded on the heavy strand. The nucleotide skewness of the coding strands of the 3 analyzed mitogenomes was biased toward A and T. We constructed a phylogenetic tree using the complete mitogenomes of each type of sheep to allow us to understand the genetic relationships between Chinese breeds of O. aries and those developed and utilized in other countries. Our findings provide important information regarding the O. aries mitogenome and the evolutionary history of O. aries inside and outside China. In addition, our results provide a foundation for further exploration of the taxonomic status of O. aries.

한국재래염소는 흑모색의 특징을 나타내며, 유일한 염소 품종으로서 오랫동안 한반도에서 사육되어 왔다. 하지만 이들에 대한 유전적 다양성, 계통유전학적 분석 등을 통한 기원 추정 등에 대한 연구는 미비한 실정이다. 본 연구에서 한국재래염소 5개 집단, 60두를 대상으로 mtDNA D-loop 영역 중 HVI 영역의 서열을 이용하여 유전적 다양성 및 계통유전학적 분석을 실시하였다. 한국재래염소는 다른 나라 염소들에 비해서 haplotype 다양성 지수가 낮게 나타났다. 또한 본 연구에서 분류된 한국재래염소 10개 haplotype 중 현재까지 보고되지 않은 6개의 새로운 haplotype이 확인되었다. 계통유전학적 분석 결과, 분석에 사용된 모든 한국재래염소는 mtDNA 모계혈통 A에 속하였다. 10개의 haplotype 중 8개는 베트남, 일부 중국 염소와 함께 subgroup을 형성하였다. 그러나 나머지 2개 haplotype은 각각 서로 독립적인 계통유전학적 위치를 보였다. 이런 결과들을 토대로 한국재래염소는 상대적으로 높은 근친상황으로 외부 유전자 유입이 적었을 것이라고 추정된다. 한국재래염소의 새로운 mtDNA haplotype의 발견 및 유전자원 보존 및 평가를 위해서 더 많은 분석집단 및 개체를 수집하고, MS 마커를 이용한 추가분석이 필요하다고 사료된다.

The increasing demand for Korean native chicken meat indicates that the discovery of haplotypes is very important from both economic and conservation points of view. In this study, mtDNA D-loop sequences from two crossbred Korean native chicken populations of 138 individuals were investigated. Twenty six nucleotide substitutions were identified from sequence analysis and were classified into 12 haplotypes. The haplotype H_8 represents 73.47% of Woorimatdag (chicken population) sequences, which were identified in all five Woorimatdag chicken populations investigated. The H_7 haplotype (Dhap1) for D population covers 45% sequences, which indicate maternal inheritance from black Korean native chicken. On the other hand, Chap3 and Chap4 for C population are specific haplotypes, as H_5 and H_2, respectively. Based on the network profiles, six SNPs (C199T, A239G, G242A, A291G, T330C and C391A) of the D-loop region are effective markers for discrimination between Woorimatdag and Hanhyup chicken populations. Also, the phylogenetic analyses of Woorimatdag and Hanhyup chicken populations were used to identify the genetic relationships among the haplotypes. The results presented here can be used for developing molecular markers to discriminate between two commercial Korean native chickens.

본 연구는 돼지의 품종특이 DNA marker를 이용하여 Large White, Landrace, Duroc의 순종 판별을 가능하게 하기 위해서 실시하였다 순종 판별을 위해 현재 알려져 있는 KIT과 돼지내의 모색과 밀접한 연관성이 있는 MCIR 그리고 mitrochondrial DNA상에서 종 특이적인 현상을 보이는 D-loop 지역의 11-bp 중복과 ND2 유전자의 개시 codon 변이를 이용하였다 품종간의 판별을 위해 KIT 유전자 exon17의 splicing 지역 변이를 활용하여 백색종과 유색종을 분류 하였다. MCIR 유전자의 (N121D)변이를 이용하여 유색종들로부터 Duroc 종이 분류되었다. 그러나 Duroc 이외의 유색종들 간에는 특이한 변이가 발견되지 않아 이 이상의 분류는 불가능 하였다 D-loop 지역의 11-bp 중복현상과 ND2 개시 codon의 변이에 의해 백색종인 Landrace(11-bp비중복과 ATT)종과 Large White(llbp 중복과 ATA) 종을 분류할 수 있었다. 결론적으로 본 연구에서 설정된 판별방법을 통하여 Landrace, Large White와 Duroc 종의 순종 판별이 완벽히 가능함을 입증하였다.
