  • Simple sequence repeats (SSR)는 진핵생물체에 널리 산재되어 있으며, 큰 다형현상을 나타내고, polymerase chain reaction (PCR)으로 쉽게 분석된다. 이 연구의 목적은 서로 다른 Chlamydomonas reinhardtii계통간의 다형현상과 Chlamydomonas의 SSR 좌위에서의 유전양상을 결정하는데 있었다. C. reinhardtii의 genomic DNA library를 만들어 $^{32}$P로 라벨링한 (AC)$_{11}$ probe를 이용하여 (CA/GT)n 반복서열을 가지는 clone을 선택하기위해 screen하였다. 선택된 clone을 sequencing하여 (CA/GT)n sequence에 인접한 PCR primer set를 제조하였다. PCR은 여러 C. reinhardtii 계통의 SSR 좌위를 증폭하기 위하여 사용하였다. 그 좌위는 및몇 C. reinhardtii 계통에서 다형현상을 보였다. 그러나 그 좌위에서 C. reinhardtii의 6계통중 4계통만 DNA가 PCR 증폭을 하였고 2계통은 증폭을 하지 않았다. C. reinhardtii와 C. smithii의 교배로 생긴 4배체에서 2:2의 분리비를 보여주었는데, 이는 단순한 멘델의 유전양상을 나타낸다. 이러한 결과로 미루어 SSR 다형현상은 Chlamydomonas의 개체 식별, 개체군 연구, 연쇄 분석, 그리고 유전자 지도 작성을 하는데 유용할 것이다.다.

  • The giant roundworm Ascaris infects pigs and people worldwide and causes serious diseases. The taxonomic relationship between Ascaris suum and Ascaris lumbricoides is still unclear. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the genetic diversity and population genetic structure of 258 Ascaris specimens from humans and pigs from 6 sympatric regions in Ascaris-endemic regions of China using existing simple sequence repeat data. The microsatellite markers showed a high level of allelic richness and genetic diversity in the samples. Each of the populations demonstrated excess homozygosity (Ho0). According to a genetic differentiation index (Fst=0.0593), there was a high-level of gene flow in the Ascaris populations. A hierarchical analysis on molecular variance revealed remarkably high levels of variation within the populations. Moreover, a population structure analysis indicated that Ascaris populations fell into 3 main genetic clusters, interpreted as A. suum, A. lumbricoides, and a hybrid of the species. We speculated that humans can be infected with A. lumbricoides, A. suum, and the hybrid, but pigs were mainly infected with A. suum. This study provided new information on the genetic diversity and population structure of Ascaris from human and pigs in China, which can be used for designing Ascaris control strategies. It can also be beneficial to understand the introgression of host affiliation.

  • We have mined each of the five A. thaliana chromosomes for the presence of simple sequence repeats (SSRs) and developed custom perl scripts to examine their distribution and abundance in relation to genomic position, local G/C content and location within and around transcribed sequences. The distribution of repeats and G/C content with respect to genomic regions (exons, UTRs, introns, intergenic regions and proximity to expressed genes) are shown. SSRs show a non-random distribution across the genome and a strong association within and around transcribed sequences, while G/C density is associated specifically with the coding portions of transcribed sequences. SSR motif repeat number shows a high degree of variation for each SSR type and a high degree of motif sequence bias reflecting local genome sequence composition. PCR primers suitable for the amplification of identified SSRs have been designed where possible, and are available for further studies.

  • A major goal of agricultural biotechnology is the discovery of genes or genetic loci which are associated with characteristics beneficial to crop production. This knowledge of genetic loci may then be applied to improve crop breeding. Agriculturally important genes may also benefit crop production through transgenic technologies. Recent years have seen an application of high throughput technologies to agricultural biotechnology leading to the production of large amounts of genomic data. The challenge today is the effective structuring of this data to permit researchers to search, filter and importantly, make robust associations within a wide variety of datasets. At the Plant Biotechnology Centre, Primary Industries Research Victoria in Melbourne, Australia, we have developed a series of tools and computational pipelines to assist in the processing and structuring of genomic data to aid its application to agricultural biotechnology resear-ch. These tools include a sequence database, ASTRA, for the processing and annotation of expressed sequence tag data. Tools have also been developed for the discovery of simple sequence repeat (SSR) and single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) molecular markers from large sequence datasets. Application of these tools to Brassica research has assisted in the production of genetic and comparative physical maps as well as candidate gene discovery for a range of agronomically important traits.

  • 기후변화에 따른 고도별 곤충의 유전 변이를 분석하고자 배추에서 복숭아혹진딧물(Myzus persicae)을 지표해충으로 변이 분석이 가능한 마커를 개발하고자 하였다. 즉, 지역의 기후가 변하면 유전자가 변동할 것이라는 가설 하에 실내에서 누대 사육된 계통을 비교집단으로 가정하고 횡성, 평창과 강릉 지역에서 고도별 5개 지역(157 m, 296 m, 560 m, 756 m, 932 m)에서 채집된 지역 집단간의 변이를 찾고자 하였다. 생태적 변이는 모든 집단에서 찾을 수가 없었고, 에스터레이즈 동위효소 분석 및 inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) PCR 결과에서 실내 사육 계통과 지역 집단간의 차이는 보였으나 지역 집단간의 큰 차이는 찾을 수가 없었다. 그러나 rRNA와 mtCO I 부분 염기서열을 분석하여 5개의 지역집단 내에서 internal transcribed spacer-2 (ITS-2) 와 mtCO I에 각각 한 개씩의 단일염기다형성(SNP)를 발견하였다. 이 SNP는 유전 변동 추적이 가능한 매우 유용한 마커로 사용 될 수 있다.

  • Pathogens Burkholderia pseudomallei (Bp) and Burkholderia mallei (Bm) contain a large number (> 12,000) of Simple Sequence Repeats (SSRs). To study the extent to which these features have contributed to the diversification of genes, we have conducted comparative studies with nineteen genomes of these bacteria. We found 210 genes with characteristic types of SSR variations. SSRs with nonamer repeat units were the most abundant, followed by hexamers and trimers. Amino acids with smaller and nonpolar R-groups are preferred to be encoded by the variant SSRs, perhaps due to their minimal impacts to protein functionality. A majority of these genes appears to code for surface or secreted proteins that may directly interact with the host factors during pathogenesis or other environmental factors. There also are others that encode diverse functions in the cytoplasm, and this protein variability may reflect an extensive involvement of phase variation in survival and adaptation of these pathogens.

  • Mulberry (Morus spp. family: Moraceae) has prime importance in the sericulture industry, and its foliage is the only natural feed of the silkworm Bombyx mori L. Traditional classification methods using morphological traits were largely unsuccessful in assessing the diversity and relationships among different mulberry species because of environmental influences on the traits of interest. For these reasons, it is difficult to differentiate between the varieties and cultivars of Morus spp. In the present study, inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) markers were used to investigate the genetic diversity of 48 mulberry samples genotyped using nine ISSR primers. The ISSR markers exhibited polymorphisms (53.2%) among mulberry genotypes. Furthermore, similarity coefficient estimated for these ISSR markers was found to vary between 0.67 and 0.99 for the combined pooled data. The phenogram drawn using the UPGMA cluster method based on combined pooled data of the ISSR markers divided the 48 mulberry genotypes into seven major groups. No genetic association was found in the collection area, and there was a mixed pattern between the mulberry lines. The hybridization between different mulberry species is highly likely to be homogenized due to natural hybridization.
