However, there is a debate on the chromosomal position of the Pii gene, because it was originally mapped on chromosome 6, but recent work showed it might be located on chromosome 9. To determine the chromosomal location of the Pi15 gene, a linkage analysis using molecular markers was performed in a F2 mapping population consisting of 15 resistant and 141 susceptible plants through bulked-segregant analysis (BSA) in combination with recessive-class analysis (RCA). Out of 20 microsatellite markers mapped on chromosomes 6 and 9 tested, only one marker, RM316 on chromosome 9, was found to have a linkage with the Pi15 gene with a recombination frequency of (19.1 ±3.7)%. To confirm this finding, four sequence-tagged site (STS) markers mapped on chromosome 9 were tested. The results suggested that marker G103 was linked to the Pi15 gene with a recombination frequency of (5.7±2.1)%. To find marker(s) more closely linked to the Pi15 gene, random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis was performed. Out of 1 000 primers tested, three RAPD markers, BAPi15486, BAPi15782 and BAPil5844 were found to tightly flank the Pi15 gene with recombination frequencies of 0.35%, 0.35% and 1.1%, respectively. These three RAPD markers should be viewed as the starting points for marker-aided gene pyramiding and cloning. A new gene cluster of rice blast resistance on chromosome 9 was also discussed.展开更多

The genomic DNA was converted into pre-amplified AFLP fragments and hybridized with biotin-labeled SSR probes. Then the hybrid mixture was used to incubate with magnetic beads coated with streptavidin. After washing to remove the non-SSR fragments, the eluted single-strand DNA, which was cloned and sequenced, was largely enriched for microsatellites. Primers can then be designed according to the sequence flanking the repeat motifs and used for polymorphism analysis. The whole experiment can be completed within one week and can be employed as a reliable option for any molecular laboratory to develop SSR markers.展开更多

Fifteen microsatellite loci were distinguishable and polymorphic with 6 types of allele-combinations. Null alleles were detected in 46.7% of loci, accounting for 11.7% of the total alleles. Four loci did not segregate in Mendelian Ratios. Three linkage groups were identified among 7 of the 15 segregating loci. Fluorescence-based automated capillary electrophoresis (ABI 310 Genetic Analyzer) that used to detect the microsatellite loci, has been proved a fast, precise, and reliable method in microsatellite genotyping.展开更多

A large number of microsatellite markers are required for the whole genome survey in the fields of molecular ecology,quantitative genetics and genomics. Therefore,it is extremely necessary to select several versatile,low-cost,efficient and time-and labor-saving methods to develop a large panel of microsatellite markers. In this study,we used Zhikong scallop(Chlamys farreri) as the target species to compare the efficiency of the five methods derived from three strategies for microsatellite marker development. The results showed that the strategy of constructing small insert genomic DNA library resulted in poor efficiency,while the microsatellite-enriched strategy highly improved the isolation efficiency. Although the mining public database strategy is time-and cost-saving,it is difficult to obtain a large number of microsatellite markers,mainly due to the limited sequence data of non-model species deposited in public databases. Based on the results in this study,we recommend two methods,microsatellite-enriched library construction method and FIASCO-colony hybridization method,for large-scale microsatellite marker development. Both methods were derived from the microsatellite-enriched strategy. The experimental results obtained from Zhikong scallop also provide the reference for microsatellite marker development in other species with large genomes.展开更多

In this study, we generated a microsatellite-enriched genomic DNA library for Scophthalmus rnaxirnus, and then isolated and characterized 45 microsateIIite loci by genotyping 30 individuals. The observed number of alleles ranged from 2 to 19 with an average of 6.24, while the effective number of alleles ranged from 1.30 to 11.11 with an average of 3.66. The expected heterozygosities varied from 0.235 to 0.9254 and polymorphic information content ranged from 0.204 4 to 0.903 3, with an average of 0.622. Twelve loci deviated significantly from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, and no significant linkage disequilibrium was observed between any pair of loci after Bonferroni correction. In cross-species amplification, five flatfish species (Paralichthys lethostigma, Verasper rnoseri, platichthys stellatus, Hippoglossoides dubius and Cynoglossus semilaevis) showed at least one polymorphic locus. These polymorphic microsatellite loci should prove useful for population analysis of turbot and other related species.展开更多

If the parameters exceed their limits, it will be difficult to adjust the flying attitude of the spacecraft, and the spacescraft may go off-track or crash. In this paper, we present a composite optimization method, which combines angular velocities with external moments for separation parameters of large-eccentricity pico-satellites. By changing the positions of elastic launch devices, the method effectively controls the popping process under the condition of less change in the separation mechanism. Finally, the reasons for deviation of angular velocities and unreliable optimization results are presented and analyzed. This optimization method is proved through a ground test which offsets the gravity. Simulation and test results show that the optimization method can effectively optimize the separation parameters of large-eccentricity pico-satellites. The proposed method adapts particularly to the fixed and non-stable status elastic parameters, the distribution of all kinds of elastic devices, and large-eccentricity spacecrafts for which attitude corrections are difficult. It is gen- erally applicable and easy to operate in practical applications.展开更多
