Genetic diversity of Gymnocypris chilianensis (Cypriniformes, Cyprinidae) unveiled by the mitochondrial DNA D-loop region.

ABSTRACT: In order to analyze the genetic diversity and genetic differentiation of Gymnocypris chilianensis, D-loop region of the mitochondrial DNA was sequenced in 50 individuals of G. chilianensis obtained from 2 geographic locations (Heihe River and Shule River) and 25 individuals of G. przewalskii (Qinghai Lake). Twenty-five homologous sequences of another G. eckloni (Yellow River) downloaded from GenBank were analyzed together. The sequences were analyzed by using the MEGA (version 7.0) and DnaSP (version 6.0) software. The results revealed that 82 haplotypes were detected among 100 individuals. The haplotype diversity (Hd) and nucleotide diversity (Pi) of G. chilianensis of the Shule River were 0.963 ± 0.029 and 0.00414 ± 0.00069, which were lower than those of 3 other populations. The genetic distance of G. chilianensis in both Heihe River and Shule River was 0.0013. The genetic distances between the 2 G. chilianensis populations and the G. eckloni were 0.0148 and 0.0141, respectively. Population differentiation values (Fst) and gene flow (Nm) showed that 4 population had occurred obvious genetic differentiation (Fst: 0.20811 ∼ 0.98863. p < 0.01; Nm < 1). Compared with G. przewalskii and G. eckloni, the differentiation degree was more significant between Heihe River G. chilianensis and Shule River G. chilianensis (Fst = 0.98863, p < 0.01; Nm = 0.00287). Maximum Likelihood (ML) phylogenetic tree showed that G. chilianensis had further genetic distance with G. eckloni and G. przewalskii. In conclution, G. chilianensis (HH&SL) had lower genetic diversity and further genetic distance than G. przewalskii (QH) and G. eckloni (YL). We suggest strengthen the protection of genetic resources of G. chilianensis.

Project description:OBJECTIVE:Complete mtDNA D-loop sequences of four Thai indigenous chicken varieties, including Pra-dhu-hang-dam (PD), Leung-hang-khao (LK), Chee (CH), and Dang (DA) were explored for genetic diversity and relationships with their potential ancestor and possible associates to address chicken domestication in Thailand. METHODS:A total of 220 complete mtDNA D-loop sequences of the four Thai indigenous chicken varieties were obtained by Sanger direct sequencing of polymerase chain reaction amplicons of 1,231 to 1,232 base pair in size. A neighbor-joining dendrogram was constructed with reference complete mtDNA D-loop sequences of Red Junglefowl (RJF) and those different chicken breeds available on National Center for Biotechnology Information database. Genetic diversity indices and neutrality test by Tajima's D test were performed. Genetic differences both within and among populations were estimated using analysis of molecular variance (AMOVA). Pairwise fixation index (FST) was conducted to evaluated genetic relationships between these varieties. RESULTS:Twenty-three identified haplotypes were classified in six haplogroups (A-E and H) with the majority clustered in haplogroup A and B. Each variety was in multiple haplogroups with haplogroups A, B, D, and E being shared by all studied varieties. The averaged haplotype and nucleotide diversities were, respectively 0.8607 and 0.00579 with non-significant Tajima's D values being observed in all populations. Haplogroup distribution was closely related to that of RJF particularly Gallus gallus gallus (G. g. gallus) and G. g. spadiceus. As denoted by AMOVA, the mean diversity was mostly due to within-population variation (90.53%) while between-population variation (9.47%) accounted for much less. By pairwise FST, LK was most closely related to DA (FST = 0.00879) while DA was farthest from CH (FST = 0.24882). CONCLUSION:All 4 Thai indigenous chickens are in close relationship with their potential ancestor, the RJF. A contribution of shared, multiple maternal lineages was in the nature of these varieties, which have been domesticated under neutral selection.
