    Nature Genetics, 2018
    Co-Authors: Joshua C Stein, Kapeel Chougule, Derrick J Zwickl, Yeisoo Yu, Dario Copetti, Chengjun Zhang, Li Zhang, Dongying Gao
    Abstract:

    The genus Oryza is a model system for the study of molecular evolution over time scales ranging from a few thousand to 15 million years. Using 13 reference genomes spanning the Oryza species tree, we show that despite few large-scale chromosomal rearrangements rapid species diversification is mirrored by lineage-specific emergence and turnover of many novel elements, including transposons, and potential new coding and noncoding genes. Our study resolves controversial areas of the Oryza phylogeny, showing a complex history of introgression among different chromosomes in the young ‘AA’ subclade containing the two domesticated species. This study highlights the prevalence of functionally coupled disease resistance genes and identifies many new haplotypes of potential use for future crop protection. Finally, this study marks a milestone in modern rice research with the release of a complete long-read assembly of IR 8 ‘Miracle Rice’, which relieved famine and drove the Green Revolution in Asia 50 years ago.

  • the tsushima leopard cat exhibits extremely low Genetic diversity compared with the korean amur leopard cat implications for Conservation
    PeerJ, 2019
    Co-Authors: Miho Inouemurayama
    Abstract:

    : We examined Genetic diversity of the wild Tsushima leopard cat-a regional population of the Amur leopard cat-using microsatellite markers. In addition, we compared Genetic diversity of the Tsushima leopard cat with that of the Korean population of Amur leopard cat. Although bias should be considered when applying cross-species amplification, the Tsushima leopard cat showed a lower index of molecular Genetic diversity than did the Korean population. These results were consistent with those obtained using other Genetic markers, such as mitochondrial DNA and Y chromosome sequences. This low Genetic diversity of the wild Tsushima leopard cat may be derived from the founding population. Furthermore, our results suggest that the captive populations held in Japanese zoos may show extremely low Genetic diversity, leading to difficulties in Genetic management of the Tsushima leopard cat. Moreover, the two regional populations were clearly separated using these marker sets. In the present study, we demonstrated that the Genetic diversity of the Tsushima leopard cat is extremely low compared with that of the continental regional population. Importantly, the Japanese captive population for ex situ Conservation was derived from a founding population with extremely low Genetic diversity; hence, we assume that both the captive and wild populations showed extremely low Genetic diversities. Our findings emphasize the need to develop carefully considered management strategies for Genetic Conservation.

  • Metformin improves quality of post-thaw canine semen
    Animals, 2020

    Abstract:

    Sperm cryopreservation is an assisted reproductive technique routinely used in canine species for Genetic Conservation. However, during cryopreservation, the DNA damages are still elevated, limiting the fertilization rate. The present study was conducted to evaluate whether supplementation of canine semen extender with a molecule limiting the metabolic activities can improve the quality of frozen-thawed canine spermatozoa. We used metformin, known to limit the mitochondrial respiratory and limit the oxidative stress. Before and during the freezing procedure, metformin (50µM and 500µM) has been added to the extender. After thawing, sperm exposed to metformin conserved the same viability without alteration in the membrane integrity or acrosome reaction. Interestingly, 50µM metformin improved the sperm motility in comparison to the control, subsequently increasing mitochondrial activity and NAD+ content. In addition, the oxidative stress level was reduced in sperm treated with metformin improving the sperm quality as measured by a different molecular marker. In conclusion, we have shown that metformin is able to improve the quality of frozen-thawed dog semen when it is used during the cryopreservative procedure.
