[A new method of molecular marker--RMAPD].

Random microsatellite amplify polymorphic DNA (RMAPD) is a new method of molecular marker. It can reveal genome DNA polymorphisms of organism only when random primer and microsatellite forward or reverse primer are combined together as a pair of primers by the PCR reaction system with Taq DNA polymerase, MgCl2, dNTPs and contemplate DNA. The core question of RMAPD is validity of the primers used. A lot of experiments of RMAPD in 69 Xinong Saanen dairy goats showed that RMAPD primers were effective. Comparison of RMAPD, microsatellite and RAPD markers demonstrated that RMAPD was different from each other in primers, amplification protocol and repetition. RMAPD is not equal to RAPD, but a extendable RAPD. Therefore, RMAPD is regarded as a new method of molecular marker. As it has many characteristics of DNA marker, RMAPD has a widest potential application in animal breeding and genetics, such as analysis of genetic structure and relationship and MAS.

[Polymorphism Analysis of the CSN1S2 Gene Digested.].

PCR-RFLP was applied to analyze the polymorphism of CSN1S2 gene in 170 goats that comprised of five goat breeds, namely Xinong Saanen dairy goat, Guanzhong dairy goat, Shaannan white goat, Angora goat and Boer goat. A 310 bp -long PCR product was digested with Alw26I and demonstrated polymorphism in five goat populations that were all at Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (P>0.05). For Xinong Saanen dairy goat, Guanzhong dairy goat, Shaannan white goat, Angora goat and Boer goat, gene heterozygosity/effective allele gene number/Shaanon information entropy /Polymorphism information content were 0.1589/1.1889/0.2955/0.1463, 0.4114/1.6981/0.6017/0.5171, 0.1653/1.1980/0.3046/0.1516, 0646/1.0691/0.1463/ 0.0625, 0.0541/1.0572/0.1270/ 0.0526, respectively. According to the heredity diversity indexes described above of the five goat breeds, Guanzhong dairy goat had the most abundant heredity diversity and showed high polymorphism, and Xinong Saanen dairy goat and Shaannan white goat were inferior, while Angora goat and Boer goat had the lowest genetic variability.

[The effect of CSN1 S2, CSN3 and beta-lg genes on milk performance in Xinong Saanen dairy goat].

PCR-RFLP technique was applied to analyze correlation between the polymorphisms of CSN1 S2 (alpha(s2) casein), CSN3 (kappa casein) and beta-lg (beta-lactoglobulin) genes and milk performance in 69 individuals of Xinong Saanen dairy goat. The results showed that there was significant correlation between different genotypes of CSN1 S2 locus and milk yield:average milk yield of individuals with genotype FF was less than that of genotype NN (P < 0.05); the second lactation milk yield of individuals with genotype NN was over 90 kg higher than that with genotype FF (P < 0.01). This indicates that allele F of CSN1 S2 locus probably has significant negative effect on milk yield. The results of CSN3 gene digested with endonuclease Hind III cleavage showed that no significant difference of milk yield between genotype DE and genotype EE was detected in first, second, third and fourth lactation milk yield and average milk yield (P > 0.05). The results of CSN3 gene with endonuclease Taq I cleavage showed that no significant difference of milk yield among individuals with genotype TT, TC and CC was detected (P > 0.05). No polymorphism was detected in PCR products of CSN3 gene digested with endonuclease Hae III. The analysis of beta-lg gene's 5' flanking region (710 bp) by PCR-RFLP in Xinong Saanen dairy goat showed that milk yield of individuals with genotype AA was higher than that with genotype AB in second, third lactation milk yield and average milk yield (P < 0.05). The results implied that allele A of beta-lg gene's 5' flanking region is probably related to high milk yield.

[Research on the genetic polymorphism in crested ibis by RMAPD].

The genetic polymorphism of Yangxian artificially reared 43 crested ibises (Nipponia nippon) was firstly investigated by RMAPD (random microsatellite amplify polymorphic DNA) marker. The results showed that RMAPD was more stable and polymorphic than RAPD. 2147 bands were amplified by 12 pairs of primers,of which 93 bands had polymorphisms. The band sharing frequency and the genetic diversity index were 0.718 and 3.664, respectively, indicating that the genetic structure of crested ibis population was simple and poor genetic variations existed in crested ibis population in Yangxian. It is imperious to protect the genetic diversity of crested ibis population.
