The results showed that a total of 80 alleles were amplified using 34 primer pairs, with an average of 2.5 alleles per locus. The allele number varied from 2 to 6 among various cultivars. Shannon＇s diversity index of molecular markers varied from 0.303 to 0.796, with an average of 0.539. Polymorphism information content （PIC） varied from 0.084 to 0.658, with an average of 0.295. The genetic similarity coefficients of 87 indica rice cultivars ranged from 0.265 to 0.990, indicating significant genetic differences of starch synthesis-related genes among different cultivars, but the variation frequency of alleles varied among different cultivars. Population structure analysis showed that these 87 indica rice cultivars were divided into three categories. Genetic differences were small within the same category but great among different categories. Moreover, indica rice cultivars with simple genetic components accounted for 39.1% and those with complex genetic background accounted for 60.9%. This study may not only provide theoretical basis for genetic improvement of rice starch quality, but also lay a solid foundation for subsequent association analysis of rice quality-related traits.展开更多

Eighteen ten-base primers were chosen from 100 primers selected for final amplification test. Among the total of 205 bands amplified, 181 (88.3%) were polymorphic. The genetic distance among different strains ranged from 0.072 to 0.391. The dendrogram constructed by unweighted pair-group method with arithmetic (UPGMA) method showed that the female and male gametophytes of the same cell lines could be grouped in pairs respectively. It indicated that RAPD analysis could be used not only to distinguish different strains ofLaminaria, but also to distinguish male and female gametophyte within the same cell lines. There is ambiguous systematic relationship if judged merely by the present data. It seems that the use of RAPD marker is limited to elucidation of the phylogenetic relationship among the species ofLaminaria.展开更多

The mutants issued this irradiation were crossed with the interspecific variety SIK385-b-42-28-28 （O. glaberrima x O. sativa）. Irradiation followed by crossing with interspecific variety generated a large genetic variability, in the subsequent generations, in plant height, maturity, non-shattering grain, kernel colour, spikelets fertility, panicle length, and grain size. This has resulted in identification of promising mutants which possess all the traits of cultivated rice O. sativa （white kernel, non-shattering grain, secondary branchies etc.）. During 2012 rainy season, nineteen selected mutants from M5 and M7 generations were evaluated for yield potential in replicated trials at Longorola station.展开更多

The genotypes of the variants were identified by the polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism （PCR-RFLP） methods. Results 46 A〉G, 79 C〉G and 659 C〉G polymorphisms were common in the Kazakan population, but 491 C〉T was a mutation （frequency ofT allele was only 0.003） and only found in EH group. The fxequency distributions of genotypes and alleles for 659 C〉G between the EH and control groups was significantly different （P〈0.05）, while those for 46 A〉G and 79 C〉G polymorphisms were not statistically different. Logistic regression analysis suggested that the G allele of 659 C〉G polymorphism was a risk factor for hypertension （minor allele vs common homo; odds ratio, 13.240, 95% CI, 4.052-43.274; P〈0.05）. Covariance analysis showed that systolic and diastolic blood pressure levels in GG＋CG group of 659 C〉G were significantly higher than those in the CC group, but no significant difference of blood pressure were found between common homo and minor allele for 46 A〉G and 79C〉G polymorphisms. Haplotype analysis showed that two hyplotypes, HI： 46A-79C-491C-523C（48%）and H5：46A-79C-491C-659G, were associated with EH.Conelusion ADRB2 genetic variants may play independent roles in the molecular genetic mechanism of EH in Xinjiang Kazakans population （d Geriatr Cardio12010; 7：52-57）.展开更多

It is characterised by an absence of enteric neurons along a variable region of the gastrointestinal tract. Hirschsprung's disease is classified as a multigenic disorder, because the same phenotype is associated with mutations in multiple distinct genes. Furthermore, the genetics of Hirschsprung's disease are highly complex and not strictly Mendelian. The phenotypic variability and incomplete penetrance observed in Hirschsprung' s disease also suggests the involvement of modifier genes. Here, we summarise the current knowledge of the genetics underlying Hirschsprung's disease based on human and animal studies, focusing on the principal causative genes, their interactions, and the role of modif ier genes.展开更多
