Genetic diversity and population structure of three dominant myctophid fishes (<Emphasis Type="Italic">Diaphus theta,Stenobrachius leucopsarus</Emphasis>, and <Emphasis Type="Italic">S. nannochir</Emphasis>) in the North Pacific Ocean     

Shigeaki Kojima  Masatoshi Moku  Kouichi Kawaguchi 《Journal of Oceanography》2009,65(2):187-193

We compared the genetic diversity of three dominant myctophid fishes in the North Pacific Ocean that have different diel vertical migration patterns on the basis of the nucleotide sequences of the mitochondrial gene for cytochrome b. No genetic structure was detected for each of these three species. The genetic diversity progressively increased for Diaphus theta, a diel migrant species showing clear diel vertical migration; Stenobrachius leucopsarus, a semi-diel migrant, in which only part of the population migrates vertically; S. nannochir, a non-diel migrant. All three species were suggested to have experienced a recent, sudden population expansion. Interspecific differences in genetic diversity might be attributable to differences in the degree of population size reduction during the glacial periods; this degree in turn corresponds to the energy demand of the fishes.  相似文献   

On four closely related hypotrichous ciliates (Protozoa, Ciliophora, Spirotrichea): molecular characters, interspecific relationships and phylogeny defined with multigene sequence information

In order to clarify the phylogeny and relationships of the most confused hypotrichous ciliates, Holosticha-complex, four closely related holostichids (five populations), Holosticha bradburyae, H. diademata, Anteholosticha sp., and A. manca, were compared and analyzed using ITS2 secondary structures, ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 region and SSrRNA gene sequences. The ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 region sequences of these four species were first sequenced, and they shared sequence identities ranging from 68.0% to 90.1%, while two populations of Anteholosticha sp. differed in three nucleotides (sequence identity 99.8%). There were several minor differences among ITS2 secondary structures of these species, while two populations of Anteholosticha sp. had the identical secondary structure. Phylogenetic trees inferred from the ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 region sequences of stichotrichs using multiple algorithms (Neighbor-Joining, Maximum Parsimony and Bayesian) revealed similar topologies. The results show that:(1) Holosticha bradburyae and H. diademata firmly clustered together with strong bootstrap supports, forming a sister clade with Anteholosticha sp., (2) Anteholosticha appeared to be a paraphyletic assemblage, in which the morphotype A. manca was more closely related to Diaxonella trimarginata than to its congener Anteholosticha sp. Phylogenetic analyses based on the SSrRNA gene and the combined sequences of SSrRNA gene and ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 region revealed the similar relationships between Holosticha and Anteholosticha, nevertheless their positions within the subclass Stichotrichia differed from each other inferred from different genes.  相似文献   

Cloning and characterization of proliferating cell nuclear antigen gene of Alexandrium catenella (Dinoflagellate) with respect to cell growth

Harmful algal blooms (HABs) have been affecting negatively the shellfish and aquaculture industries around the world. Though a lot of efforts have been made to disclose the changes of environmental factors involved and their effects on the HABs events, the molecular mechanism of this process remains unclear. To address this problem, proliferating cell nuclear antigen gene (pcna) was isolated and characterized from Alexandrium catenella. It showed high homology to those of other dinoflagellates (89% and 91% homology to Pfiesteria piscicid and Pyrocystis lunula, respectively), and also 42%-43% homology to those of plant and animals. The expression level of pcna revealed by quantitative real time PCR was the lowest at the late lagging cell growth phase, increased to the highest at the late exponential phase, and then decreased at the stationary phase. Though the cell growth rate was also changing, no positive correlation between pcna expression level and cell growth rate was displayed throughout the whole cell growth stages (r²=0.024 6). However, the pcna expression level had the similar trend with the change of cell growth rate throughout the whole growing process, e.g., from increasing at the earlier cell growth stage to decreasing at the following stages, though slightly lagging to the latter.  相似文献   

三疣梭子蟹4个野生群体线粒体16S rRNA和COⅠ基因片段的比较分析     

戴艳菊  刘萍  高保全  李健  王清印 《中国海洋大学学报(自然科学版)》2010,40(3)

对分别采自辽东湾、莱州湾、海州湾和舟山的三疣梭子蟹(Portunus trituberculatus)4个野生群体的线粒体16S rRNA和COⅠ基因片段进行了扩增和测序,分别得到长度为524 bp和658 bp的片段.2段序列的碱基组成均显示较高的A+T比例(16S rRNA基因70.8%,COⅠ基因63%),这与果蝇、虾类、蟹类等无脊椎动物的16S rRNA和COⅠ基因片段研究结果相似.通过对三疣梭子蟹16S rRNA和COⅠ基因片段遗传特征的研究,发现种内变异较低,在16个样本中,16S rRNA基因序列中共检测到1个变异位点,2种单倍型;COⅠ基因序列中共检测到4个变异位点,5种单倍型.另外,以中华绒螯蟹为外群探讨了梭子蟹科(Portunidea)几个属种的系统进化关系.用MEGA4.0软件中的NJ法构建了系统进化树,基于16S rRNA和COⅠ2种片段的聚类结果均显示梭子蟹属(Portunus)与美青蟹属(Callinectes)亲缘关系最近,先聚在一起,然后再与蟳属(Charybdis)聚在一起,最后才与外群中华绒螯蟹聚在一起,这一结果与传统分类基本一致.  相似文献   

High gene flow promotes the genetic homogeneity of the fish goby Pomatoschistus marmoratus (Risso, 1810) from Mar Menor coastal lagoon and adjacent marine waters (Spain)

The extreme environmental variability of coastal lagoons suggests that physical and ecological factors could contribute to the genetic divergence among populations occurring in lagoon and open‐coast environments. In this study we analysed the genetic variability of lagoon and marine samples of the sand goby, Pomatoschistus marmoratus (Risso, 1810) (Pisces: Gobiidae), on the SW Spain coast. A fragment of mitochondrial DNA control region (570 bp) was sequenced for 196 individuals collected in five localities: Lo Pagan, Los Urrutias and Playa Honda (Mar Menor coastal lagoon), and Veneziola and Mazarrón (Mediterranean Sea). The total haplotype diversity was h = 0.9424 ± 0.0229, and the total nucleotide diversity was π = 0.0108 ± 0.0058. Among‐sample genetic differentiation was not significant and small‐scale patterns in the distribution of haplotypes were not apparent. Gene flow and dispersal‐related life history traits may account for low genetic structure at a small spatial scale. The high genetic diversity found in P. marmoratus increases its potential to adapt to changing conditions of the Mar Menor coastal lagoon.  相似文献

许氏平鲉MyoD1s基因的鉴定及其调控成肌细胞分化功能的初步研究     

孔祥福  贺艳  宋伟豪  孙敏敏 《中国海洋大学学报(自然科学版)》2021,(2)

在脊椎动物肌肉发育过程中,MyoD1基因可通过多个途径激活肌肉生长相关基因的表达,是成肌细胞增殖和分化的主要调控因子之一。目前关于经济鱼类MyoD1基因的研究主要集中在基因克隆和组织表达情况的分析,而对其功能的研究非常有限。本研究鉴定了许氏平鲉MyoD1基因两个拷贝,分别命名为MyoD1和MyoD1-like。MyoD1-like基因与MyoD1基因ORF序列存在19 bp的碱基差异,且MyoD1-like基因仅含有外显子而无内含子。qRT-PCR表达分析结果显示,MyoD1s基因在肌肉组织中的表达量显著高于其他组织,且MyoD1-like基因的表达显著高于MyoD1。原位杂交结果显示,MyoD1s基因的表达位置是肌纤维的边缘,即成肌细胞增殖、分化的位置。过表达许氏平鲉MyoD1-like基因可诱导小鼠成肌细胞发生分化,融合形成肌管。该结果为研究MyoD1基因在经济鱼类肌肉生长发育过程中的调控作用奠定了基础。  相似文献

为解析肌肉生长抑制素(Myostatin,MSTN)基因在黄条鰤(Seriola aureovittata)生长发育过程中作用机制。本研究采用cDNA末端快速扩增法,克隆了黄条鰤MSTN基因的全长cDNA序列,采用荧光定量PCR(RT-qPCR)技术对MSTN mRNA在黄条鰤不同组织、胚胎发育过程以及仔稚幼鱼发育过程中的差异表达特征进行了研究。序列分析结果显示,MSTN基因全长cDNA为1828 bp,开放阅读框为1131 bp,编码了376个氨基酸。RT-qPCR分析表明,在检测的脑、垂体、肝脏、肌肉、脾脏、肾脏、鳃、心脏、胃、肠、头肾组织中MSTN mRNA均有表达,其在肌肉中表达量最高(P<0.05)。MSTN mRNA在胚体下包2/3时期至孵化期表达量显著升高,且在孵化期达到峰值(P<0.05)。MSTN mRNA在孵化后3天前表达量显著升高(P<0.05),在第20天降低至较低水平,25天后表达量再次显著升高,在第30天达到峰值(P<0.05)。研究结果首次揭示了MSTN基因在黄条鰤的胚胎及早期生长发育过程中发挥着重要作用,本研究为开展黄条鰤繁养殖、育种提供了理论参考。  相似文献   

纳米氧化锌和菲对长江口附近海域沉积物反硝化作用及功能菌群落结构的影响     

任朝萌  白洁  李辉  孙鹏飞  晨曦 《中国海洋大学学报(自然科学版)》2021,(6):78-87

本研究在长江口附近海域采集表层沉积物,采用实验室模拟培养与分子生物学手段相结合的方法,通过测定纳米氧化锌(ZnO NPs)和菲(Phe)胁迫下沉积物中NO^-₃-N和NO^-₂-N浓度和反硝化还原酶活性及反硝化细菌基因丰度和群落多样性变化,目的是比较研究ZnO NPs和Phe对河口区沉积物反硝化作用及功能菌群落结构的影响,并探讨其作用过程和可能的作用机制。结果表明:ZnO NPs和Phe对沉积物硝酸盐还原能力和亚硝酸还原能力均产生抑制作用,浓度越高,抑制作用越强,其中亚硝酸盐还原过程受到2种污染物抑制更强烈,加重了沉积物亚硝酸盐的累积。ZnO NPs对沉积物硝酸盐还原能力、硝酸还原酶活性、narG基因丰度的抑制程度大于Phe,Phe对沉积物亚硝酸盐还原能力、亚硝酸还原酶和nirS基因丰度的抑制程度大于ZnO NPs,表明对反硝化还原酶和反硝化功能基因的抑制是外源污染物胁迫影响反硝化过程的主要机制。ZnO NPs和Phe降低了沉积物反硝化菌群落多样性水平,增加沉积物中Halomonas的优势度,降低了Bacillus的优势度,但Phe对沉积物群落多样性和组成的影响更加明显,说明Phe对长江口海区的生态影响大于ZnO-NPs。  相似文献
