[Method] Ten geese were selected randomly from the core populations of grey-, mosaic- and white-plumaged Xinjiang Goose respectively with a total number of thirty as experi- mental materials, of which the blood samples were collected from the largest vein under the wing (brachial vein) for DNA extraction. Sequences of mitochondrial DNA D-loop regions were determined using DNA sequencing technology to analyze the polymorphism. In addition, the genetic distances among different populations were estimated through the comparison with the reference sequences. [Resull] The con- tents of A, G, C and T nucleotides in the D-loop region of Xinjiang Goose were 28.85%, 17.05%, 25.38% and 28.72%, respectively. The average haplotype diversity and nucleotide diversity of Xinjiang Goose were 0.583 and 0.056. Xinjiang Goose and Greylag Goose were clustered into the same group. [Conclusion] The results showed that Xinjiang Geese with three different colors of plumage all descend from Greylag Goose (Anser anser).展开更多

The system captured stereo image sequences by two separate CCD cameras, and then rebuilt 3D coordinates of the feature points to analyze the jacket launch motion. The possibility of combining stereo vision and motion analysis for measurement was examined. Resuhs by experiments using scale model of jacket confirm the theoretical data.展开更多

The full length cDNA sequence of PaCTSD was 1955 bp encoding a propeptide of 397 amino acids. The deduced protein had a calculated molecular weight of 43.17x 103. Multiple alignment with other known CTSD amino acid sequences revealed amino acid conservation through the teleosts. Phylogenetic tree analysis showed that PaCTSD grouped tightly with other fish CTSD, and was close to that of Atlantic salmon and rainbow trout. Subsequently, PaCTSD was prokaryotically expressed and refolded by the urea gradient method on a nickel-nitrilotriacetic acid column. Enzyme activity analysis showed that PaCTSD exhibited pH-dependent proteolytic activity. Quantitative real-time PCR showed that PaCTSD mRNA was expressed in all detected tissues in healthy sweetfish. The highest expression was observed in the spleen and white blood cells, followed by liver, head-kidney, kidney, intestine, gill, and muscle. After Listonella anguillarum infection, PaCTSD transcripts were up-regulated significantly in liver, spleen, white blood cells, and head-kidney of sweetfish. In summary, PaCTSD has proteolytic activity and is closely involved in the immune response of sweetfish.展开更多

We used mi- tochondrial DNA control-region data to investigate the origin and past demographic change in sixty-seven Himalayan snowcock T. himalayensis. The fragments of 1155 nucleotides from the control region of mitochondrial DNA were sequenced, and 57 poly- morphic positions defined 37 haplotypes. A high level of genetic diversity was detected in all populations sampled and may be associated isolation of the mountains and habitat fragmentation and deterioration from Quaternary glaciations. In the phylogenetic tree, all haplotypes grouped into four groups: clade A (Kunlun Mountains clade), clade B (Northern Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau clade), clade C (Tianshan Mountains clade) and clade D (Kalakunlun Mountains clade). We found a low level of gene flow and significant genetic differentiation among all populations. Based on divergence time we suggest that the divergence of Himalayan snowcock occurred in the middle Pleistocene inter-glaciation, and expansion occurred in the glaciation. Analysis of mtDNA D-loop sequences confirmed demographic population expansion, as did our non-significant mismatch distribution analysis. In conclusion, limited gene flow and a pattern of partial isolation phylogeographic was found in geographic populations of T. hima- layansis based on the analysis on mtDNA D-loop sequences [Current Zoology 57 (6): 758-767, 2011].展开更多
