[ Method] The polymorphisms of serum esterase （Es） locus in Small Tail Han sheep were detected by vertical discontinuous polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis （PAGE）. According to the statistical analysis of different genotypes and their litter size, the correlation between Es polymor- phisms and litter size was analyzed. [ Result] There were three genotypes in Es locus, and Es^＋- was the dominate genotype. The differences of ewe litter size in the 1 ,t parity among these three genotypes were nonsignificant （ P 〉 0.05）, As far as the 2^nd and 3rd parity was considered, the litter size of genotype Es＋＋ was significantly （P〈0.05） higher than that of Es-- and Es^＋- ; the average litter size of Es＋＋ was extremely significant （ P 〈 0.01 ） higher than that of Es - - and Es ＋ - while there was no significant difference （ P 〉 0.05） between the latter two. [ Conclusion] The Es lo- cus could be regarded as a genetic marker locus for early selection of high-yielding ewes and Es ＋＋ is the high-yielding genotype of Small Tail Han sheep.展开更多

The results indicated that FSHR mRNA extracted from the right ovary of BB （1.14±0.11） ewes showed higher levels compared with AA （0.44±0.11） and AB （0.36±0.08） ewes （P〈0.01）, and LHR mRNA extracted from the right ovary of BB （0.42±0.02） ewes showed significantly higher levels compared with AA （0.23±0.02） and AB （0.25±0.04） ewes （P〈0.01）; however, the mRNA extracted from the left ovary showed no significant difference in levels among the genotypes during the oestrum. It indicated that the fecundity induced by a mutation of BMPRIB in Small Tail Han sheep may be related to the changes of the mRNA expression of LHR and FSHR in ovary.展开更多

The average heterozygosities of Small-Tailed Han sheep and Tan sheep were 0.2360 and 0.2587, respectively. The average polymorphic information content values were 0.1974 and 0.2102, respectively. The average effective numbers of alleles were 1.5723 and 1.5751, respectively. The coefficients of gene differentiation in the four groups （including 4, 6, 13, and 16 sheep populations, respectively） were 0.049323, 0.059987, 0.1728, and 0.201256, respectively, indicating that the degree of gene differentiation at the structural loci was the least in Hu sheep, Tong sheep, Small-Tailed Hart sheep, and Tan sheep; followed by the above-mentioned four sheep populations and two Mongolian sheep populations; and was the highest in sheep populations belonging to the Mongolian sheep group, South Asian sheep, and European sheep. The earlier researchers＇ conclusions that both Small-Tailed Han sheep and Tan sheep evolved from Mongolian sheep were further verified by the results of this study. Hu sheep, Tong sheep, Small-Tailed Han sheep, and Tan sheep were decreasingly affected by the bloodline of Mongolian sheep to different degrees. The relationships among sheep populations were not closely related to the geographical distances among sheep populations.展开更多

The offspring of different crossbreeding combinations were sampled randomly at different growth stages, and their growth and development traits were measured so as to screen out the best crossbreeding mode. The results showed that under the same crossbreeding mode, the growth rate of F3 was higher than that of F2, and of F2 was higher than that of F1. Among the F3 population, the growth rates of Dorset ×Han and Dorset × Mongolia hybrids were higher. Compared with those of Dorset ×Tan F3 hybrids, the body weights of male and female Dorset × Han and Dorset ×Mongolia F3 hybrids were increased by 5.59%, 4.40%, 5.93% and 3.76%, respectively. Among the F2 population, the growth rates of Dorset × Han and Dorset ×Mongolia hybrids were also higher. The body weights of male and female Dorset ×Han and Dorset × Mongolia F2 hybrids were higher than those of Dorset × Tan ×Han F2 hybrids by 5.99%, 3.67%, 9.80% and 5.00%, respectively. In the F1 population, the growth rates of Dorset × Han and Dorset × Mongolia hybrids were higher.Compared with those of Tan × Han F1 hybrids, the body weights of male and female Dorset × Han and Dorset × Mongolia F1 hybrids were increased by 11.32%,5.22%, 7.60% and 7.20%, respectively. Therefore, in the feeding area of Small Tai Han sheep, Mongolia sheep and Tan sheep, Dorset was the best sire for producing hybrid lambs. The economic benefit of crossbred offspring was obvious.展开更多

This library had a plaque titer of 1 x 109 pfu mL-1 and a 96% recombinant ratio of which the fragment length of inserted average cDNA sequences was 1.0 kb. Based on bioinformatics analysis of the sequences, we obtained 338 expressed sequence tags （ESTs） from 380 cDNA clones which indicated 191 contigs. These contigs consist of 89 unmatched ESTs, 9 homologous known genes in sheep, and 93 homologous sequences in species of mouse, bovine, and human beings, including 19 sequences expressed in the ovary or follicle and 14 unknown sequences. Several candidate genes associated with sheep reproduction trait such as epidermal growth factor （EGF）, estrogen receptor （ESR）, Inhibin, follicle stimulating hormone receptor （FSHR）, prostaglandin （PG）, and transforming growth factor-β （TGF-β） were identified and the homologous were cloned from this library, which will contribute to compile expression profiles and find the major genes of prolificacy of Small Tail Han sheep.展开更多

The offspring under different crossbreeding combinations were sampled randomly at the different growing stage to measure their growth traits so as to select optimize the crossbreeding mode. The results indicated that,for the same crossbreeding mode,the growth rate of progeny was in order F3】 F2】 F1; for the F3 progeny,the combinations Dorset- Borderdale- Small tail Han sheep and Dorset- Borderdale- Mongolia sheep gave a higher growth rate,with a body weight of 1. 57%,3. 17%,8. 23%,1. 15% higher in male and female individuals than the counterparts of Dorset and Tan sheep and Small tail Han sheep; for the F2 progeny,the combinations Dorset- Borderdale- Small tail Han sheep and Dorset- Borderdale- Mongolia sheep also gave a higher growth rate,with a body weight of 2. 15%,4. 53%,9. 21% and 2. 75% higher in male and female individuals than the counterparts of Dorset and Tan sheep and Small tail Han sheep; for the F1 progeny,the combination Borderdale and Small tail Han sheep assumed a higher growth rate,with a body weight of 3. 23%,6. 07%,7. 42% and 8. 66% higher in male and female individuals than the counterparts of Borderdale- Mongolia sheep and Tan sheep- Small tail Han sheep,respectively. Therefore,in the Small-tail Han sheep and Mongolia sheep producing regions,the F2 or F3progeny bred by using Dorset or Borderdale sheep as male parent to cross with local breeds,or the hybrid lambs of Small-tail Han sheep and Borderdale sheep as highly qualified commodity,would produce significant economic benefit.

文摘为探究丁酸梭菌对小尾寒羊宰后成熟过程中挥发性风味物质的影响及其可能机制,以6月龄小尾寒羊为研究对象,取其背最长肌进行宰后成熟(4℃),然后分别在第0、1、2、3、4、5天对羊肉中的挥发性风味物质和腺苷酸活化蛋白激酶(adenosine monophosphate activated protein kinase,AMPK)、乙酰辅酶A羧化酶(acetyl CoA carboxylase,ACC)和肉毒碱脂酰转移酶1(carnitine palmitoyltransferase,CPT1)等脂肪代谢相关酶活性进行测定。电子鼻测定结果显示,丁酸梭菌组小尾寒羊肉中的烷类、氢过氧化物和氮氧化合物的含量更加丰富;结合气相色谱-质谱联用技术测定结果可知,丁酸梭菌组小尾寒羊肉中醛、醇及酮类化合物的种类较为丰富,而脂肪氧化产物如辛醛、壬醛、癸醛、庚醛的含量均明显降低;利用相对气味活度值法筛选了宰后成熟过程中两组小尾寒羊肉中共有的关键风味物质,包括辛醛、壬醛、反-2-癸烯醛和1-辛烯-3-醇,其中癸醛对羊肉风味的贡献最大。与对照组相比,丁酸梭菌组小尾寒羊肉中AMPK和CPT1的含量在宰后成熟过程中均显著降低(P<0.05),而丁酸梭菌组小尾寒羊肉中ACC含量在宰后成熟第0、1、3、5天显著高于对照组(P<0.05);相关性分析结果表明,AMPK和CPT1与壬醛均呈极显著正相关(P<0.001),而ACC与壬醛和癸醛呈极显著负相关(P<0.001)。综上,日粮添加丁酸梭菌可能通过调控AMPK-ACC-CPT1通路进而影响小尾寒羊宰后成熟过程中的挥发性风味物质。
