Genetic Diversity and Phylogenetic Analysis of South-East Asian Duck Populations Based on the mtDNA D-loop Sequences.

ABSTRACT: The maternally inherited mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) D-loop region is widely used for exploring genetic relationships and for investigating the origin of various animal species. Currently, domestic ducks play an important role in animal protein supply. In this study, partial mtDNA D-loop sequences were obtained from 145 samples belonging to six South-East Asian duck populations and commercial duck population. All these populations were closely related to the mallard duck (Anas platyrhynchos), as indicated by their mean overall genetic distance. Sixteen nucleotide substitutions were identified in sequence analyses allowing the distinction of 28 haplotypes. Around 42.76% of the duck sequences were classified as Hap_02, which completely matched with Anas platyrhynchos duck species. The neighbor-joining phylogenetic tree also revealed that South-East Asian duck populations were closely related to Anas platyrhynchos. Network profiles were also traced using the 28 haplotypes. Overall, results showed that those duck populations D-loop haplotypes were shared between several duck breeds from Korea and Bangladesh sub continental regions. Therefore, these results confirmed that South-East Asian domestic duck populations have been domesticated from Anas platyrhynchos duck as the maternal origins.

Project description:Objectives Reliable identification of population-specific variants is important for building the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) profile. In this study, genomic variation using allele frequency differences of pharmacologically important genes for Gujarati Indians in Houston (GIH) and Indian Telugu in the U.K. (ITU) from the 1000 Genomes Project vis-à-vis global population data was studied to understand its role in drug response. Methods Joint genotyping approach was used to derive variants of GIH and ITU independently. SNPs of both these populations with significant allele frequency variation (minor allele frequency ≥ 0.05) with super-populations from the 1000 Genomes Project and gnomAD based on Chi-square distribution with p-value of ≤ 0.05 and Bonferroni’s multiple adjustment tests were identified. Population stratification and fixation index analysis was carried out to understand genetic differentiation. Functional annotation of variants was carried out using SnpEff, VEP and CADD score. Results Population stratification of VIP genes revealed four clusters viz., single cluster of GIH and ITU, one cluster each of East Asian, European, African populations and Admixed American was found to be admixed. A total of 13 SNPs belonging to ten pharmacogenes were identified to have significant allele frequency variation in both GIH and ITU populations as compared to one or more super-populations. These SNPs belong to VKORC1 (rs17708472, rs2359612, rs8050894) involved in Vitamin K cycle, cytochrome P450 isoforms CYP2C9 (rs1057910), CYP2B6 (rs3211371), CYP2A2 (rs4646425) and CYP2A4 (rs4646440); ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter ABCB1 (rs12720067), DPYD1 (rs12119882, rs56160474) involved in pyrimidine metabolism, methyltransferase COMT (rs9332377) and transcriptional factor NR1I2 (rs6785049). SNPs rs1544410 (VDR), rs2725264 (ABCG2), rs5215 and rs5219 (KCNJ11) share high fixation index (≥ 0.5) with either EAS/AFR populations. Missense variants rs1057910 (CYP2C9), rs1801028 (DRD2) and rs1138272 (GSTP1), rs116855232 (NUDT15); intronic variants rs1131341 (NQO1) and rs115349832 (DPYD) are identified to be ‘deleterious’. Conclusions Analysis of SNPs pertaining to pharmacogenes in GIH and ITU populations using population structure, fixation index and allele frequency variation provides a premise for understanding the role of genetic diversity in drug response in Asian Indians.
