Project description:Domestic pig (Sus scrofa domesticus) is one of the important farm animal contributing 7% of the country's total animal protein sources in India. In the present study, random hexamer primer was used to amplify the complete mitochondrial genome of Central Indian domestic pig and resolved the complete mitochondrial sequence by shotgun sequencing followed by de novo assembly in MIRA version 4.0.5. The sequence assembly revealed to be 15,827 bp mitogenome of pig (accession no. KT965278). The mitogenome in the present study has 99% homology with previously reported mitogenome of pigs from different parts of the world. The present study is the first report of complete sequence of mitogenome of pig from Indian subcontinent. Mitogenome analysis by MITOS web server revealed similarity of gene order, organization with the other pig breeds and vertebrates, comprising of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNAs, 2 rRNAs and a control region. It was concluded that modified random hexamer can be successfully used for whole mitogenome sequencing using NGS without designing mitogenome-specific primer, thereby reducing cost and labor.

Project description:Myricaria prostrata is a critically endangered plant mainly distributed in Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau and adjacent areas. In the current research, we report the complete chloroplast genome sequence of M. prostrata.

Project description:Saussurea medusa Maxim. is a subnival plant of Asteraceae with abundant medicinal and ecological value. Until now, few studies have been conducted on S. medusa, especially in phylogenetic relationships and species identification. The S. medusa cp genome had a typical quadripartite structure with a conserved genome arrangement. It was 152,500 bp in size, consisting of a large single copy (LSC) region of 83,553 bp and a small single copy (SSC) region of 18,545 bp, separated by a pair of inverted repeats (IRs) of 25,201 bp. It contained 113 unique genes, including 80 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 29 tRNA and four rRNA genes. The overall GC content was 37.67%. Moreover, a phylogenetic analysis, based on 48 complete cp genomes using Maximum Likelihood (ML) method, indicated that S. medusa was relatively closed to S. pseudoleucoma and was well-clustered within genus Saussurea.

Project description:The complete mitochondrial genomes of Min pig (Hebao) are published in this paper. The full length of mtDNA is 16,719 bp and contained 13 PCGs, 2 rRNA and 22 tRNA, and 1D-loop(MN258706). A phylogenetic tree with the 13 protein-coding genes sequences of Min pig (Hebao) together with 45 other Chinese pig breeds and 7 foreign pig breeds was constructed. The results can be subsequently used to provide information for pig phylogenetic and insights into the evolution of genomes. The result of phylogenetic analysis showed that the genetic relationship of Min pig (Hebao) is closer to that of Dapulian pigs.

Project description:To adapt to the plateau environment, Tibetan pigs' lungs have developed a unique physiological mechanism during evolution. The vascular corrosion casting technique and scanning electron microscopy were used to understand arterial architecture. Blood physiological index and quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) were used for assessing whether the lung can regulate the body through anatomical, physiological and molecular mechanisms to adapt to hypoxic environments. Our study showed that the lungs of Tibetan pigs were heavier and wider and that the pulmonary arteries were thicker and branched and had a denser vascular network than those of Landrace pigs. The hemoglobin (HGB), mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC) values of high-altitude pigs were significantly higher than those of low-altitude pigs. The expression levels of HIF- 1 α , EPAS1, EPO and VEGF, but not those of eNOSand EGLN1, were significantly higher in the lungs of high-altitude pigs than in those from pigs at a lower altitude ( P<0.05 ). These findings and a comprehensive analysis help elucidate the pulmonary mechanism of hypoxic adaptation in pigs.

Project description:BackgroundCellulolytic microorganisms are considered a key player in the degradation of feed fiber. These microorganisms can be isolated from various resources, such as animal gut, plant surfaces, soil and oceans. A new strain of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens, TL106, was isolated from faeces of a healthy Tibetan pigs. This strain can produce cellulase and shows strong antimicrobial activity in mice. Thus, in this study, to better understand the strain of B. amyloliquefaciens TL106 on degradation of cellulose, the genome of the strain TL106 was completely sequenced and analyzed. In addition, we also explored the cellulose degradation ability of strain TL106 in vitro.ResultsTL106 was completely sequenced with the third generation high-throughput DNA sequencing. In vitro analysis with enzymatic hydrolysis identified the activity of cellulose degradation. TL106 consisted of one circular chromosome with 3,980,960 bp and one plasmid with 16,916 bp, the genome total length was 3.99 Mb and total of 4,130 genes were predicted. Several genes of cellulases and hemicellulase were blasted in Genbank, including β-glucosidase, endoglucanase, ß-glucanase and xylanase genes. Additionally, the activities of amylase (20.25 U/mL), cellulase (20.86 U/mL), xylanase (39.71 U/mL) and β-glucanase (36.13 U/mL) in the fermentation supernatant of strain TL106 were higher. In the study of degradation characteristics, we found that strain TL106 had a better degradation effect on crude fiber, neutral detergent fiber, acid detergent fiber, starch, arabinoxylan and β-glucan of wheat and highland barley .ConclusionsThe genome of B. amyloliquefaciens TL106 contained several genes of cellulases and hemicellulases, can produce carbohydrate-active enzymes, amylase, cellulase, xylanase and β-glucanase. The supernatant of fermented had activities of strain TL106. It could degrade the fiber fraction and non-starch polysaccharides (arabinoxylans and β-glucan) of wheat and highland barley. The present study demonstrated that the degradation activity of TL106 to crude fiber which can potentially be applied as a feed additive to potentiate the digestion of plant feed by monogastric animals.

Project description:OBJECTIVE:The I pig is a long nurtured longstanding breed in Vietnam, and contains excellent indigenous genetic resources. However, after 1970s, I pig breeds have become a small population because of decreasing farming areas and increasing pressure from foreign breeds with a high growth rate. Thus, there is now the risk of the disappearance of the I pigs breed. The aim of this study was to focus on classifying and identifying the I pig genetic origin and supplying molecular makers for conservation activities. METHODS:This study sequenced the complete mitochondrial genome and used the sequencing result to analyze the phylogenetic relationship of I pig with Asian and European domestic pigs and wild boars. The full sequence was annotated and predicted the secondary tRNA. RESULTS:The total length of I pig mitochondrial genome (accession number KX094894) was 16,731 base pairs, comprised two rRNA (12S and 16S), 22 tRNA and 13 mRNA genes. The annotation structures were not different from other pig breeds. Some component indexes as AT content, GC, and AT skew were counted, in which AT content (60.09%) was smaller than other pigs. We built the phylogenetic trees from full sequence and D loop sequence using Bayesian method. The result showed that I pig, Banna mini, wild boar (WB) Vietnam and WB Hainan or WB Korea, WB Japan were a cluster. They were a group within the Asian clade distinct from Chinese pigs and other Asian breeds in both phylogenetic trees (0.0004 and 0.0057, respectively). CONCLUSION:These results were similar to previous phylogenic study in Vietnamese pig and showed the genetic distinctness of I pig with other Asian domestic pigs.
