鸡AIRC基因多态性及其对肌肉肌苷酸含量的遗传效应分析

以鸡AIRC基因为侯选基因,以丝羽乌骨鸡、萧山鸡、白耳鸡、藏鸡、隐性白羽鸡为试验材料,采用PCR-SS-CP方法对AIRC基因所有外显子及部分内含子区域进行SNPs检测,在外显子3和8中各发现1个单核苷酸多态位点。各种基因型与胸肌肌苷酸(IMP)含量的方差分析结果表明,外显子3中CC基因型个体的肌肉IMP含量显著高于TC和TT基因型个体,TC基因型个体也稍高于TT型,但差异不显著;外显子8中CG基因型个体的肌肉IMP含量显著高于GG和CC基因型个体,GG基因型个体的胸肌肌苷酸含量也显著高于CC型。外显子3和8的合并基因型对IMP含量也有显著的影响,合并基因型为CCCG的个体比TTCC合并基因型的个体高2.25mg.g-1,合并基因型的遗传效应大于最优秀的单个基因型效应。因此,可以利用该合并基因型对鸡的肉质风味性状进行标记辅助选择。

GPAT/AIRC基因对白耳鸡群体肌肉肌苷酸含量的遗传效应分析

以GPAT/AIRC基因为侯选基因,以白耳鸡为试验材料,采用PCR-SSCP方法对GPAT基因外显子2,AIRC基因外显子8进行SNPs检测。结果各发现了一个单核苷酸多态性位点。各种基因型与胸肌IMP含量的方差分析结果表明:GPAT基因外显子2中AA型个体的肌肉肌苷酸含量显著地高于AB型和BB型个体,AB型个体也稍高于BB型,但差异不显著;AIRC基因外显子8中CG型个体的肌肉肌苷酸含量显著地高于GG型和CC型个体,GG型个体的胸肌肌苷酸含量也显著地高于CC型。两个基因的单倍型对IMP含量也有显著的影响:单倍型为AACG的个体比单倍型为BBCC的个体高1.006 mg/g,单倍型的遗传效应大于最优秀的单个基因型效应。因此,可以利用该单倍型对鸡的肉质风味性状进行标记辅助选择。

Analysis of the Genetic Effects of Three Genes Involved in de novo Purine Biosynthesis on IMP Content in Baier Chickens

GPAT,AIRC and purH genes are involved in the de novo purine biosynthesis,and they all had significant effects on muscle inosine monophosphate(IMP) content in chickens.This study was designed to investigate the effects of GPAT,AIRC and purH genes on muscle IMP content in a relatively large population of Baier chickens;single genotype effects as well as the combined genotype effects were analyzed.The results further support that GPAT,AIRC and purH genes had effects on muscle IMP content;they might be candidate loci or linked to major genes affecting muscle IMP content.The combined genotypic effects were significantly higher than those of the single genotypes and were even larger when more gene loci were combined.We tentatively conclude that combined genotypes are superior to single genotypes as potential molecular markers for meat quality traits in chicken.

肌苷酸合成酶系3个基因对白耳鸡胸肌肌苷酸含量的遗传效应

GPAT、AIRC和PURH基因作为肌苷酸合成过程中的酶系基因,它们对鸡肌肉肌苷酸含量均具有显著的效应。为了进一步验证这3个基因对肌苷酸含量的遗传效应,本研究以白耳鸡为试验材料,采用PCR-SSCP和测序相结合的方法,分析了这3个基因的单基因以及合并基因型对鸡胸肌肌苷酸含量的影响。结果表明:GPAT、AIRC和PURH基因均对白耳鸡胸肌肌苷酸含量的差异产生影响,均与鸡肌肉IMP含量存在显著关联(P<0.05),这3个位点可作为影响鸡肌肉肌苷酸含量的分子标记;合并基因型的遗传效应要高于最优秀的单个基因型效应。因此,可以利用合并基因型对鸡的肉质风味性状进行标记辅助选择。
