摘要: 深受中国消费者青睐的青胫性状受隐性伴性基因或常染色体显性基因控制。为探明培育品系W系青胫性状的遗传规律及分子基础,本研究首先选取W系黑羽青胫与洛岛红黄羽黄胫的成熟公、母鸡(1♂∶5♀)进行正反交试验,然后对后代中青、黄胫母雏各4只的胫部皮肤进行转录组测序分析。结果表明,正交后代有青胫293只(♂172只,♀121只),黄胫51只(♂20只,♀31只); 反交后代有青胫256只(♂156只,♀100只),黄胫73只(♂29只,♀44只),正或反交后代均有两种胫色,且青胫显著多于黄胫,表明W系青胫性状属于常染色体显性遗传。将有胫色分离的杂交组合后代按胫色、羽色统计,青、黄胫个体分别为黑、黄羽,青、黄胫分离比符合1∶1(121∶117),因此青、黄胫性状或黑、黄羽性状可能受1对等位基因控制。雏鸡的胫部皮肤转录组测序分析表明,差异表达基因显著富集于黑色素生成通路(P < 0.01),Mc1r基因和已知参与黑色素合成的基因如TyrTyrp1在青、黄胫皮肤中的表达量存在极显著差异。另外,一些尚无报道参与胫色形成的基因如Wnt16、Wnt3aFzd10等也存在极显著差异。青胫性状的形成除涉及显著富集的黑色素生成通路外,还涉及细胞外基质与受体信号、信号传导、细胞骨架与迁移、细胞黏附、鞘脂与糖脂代谢。综合遗传分析与转录组分析,本研究推定培育品系W系中的青胫性状受Mc1r基因控制,呈常染色体显性遗传,青胫性状的形成涉及多个信号通路,这为青胫性状形成机制的阐明奠定了基础。

Abstract: The black shank trait favored by Chinese consumers is controlled by recessive sex-related gene or autosomal dominant gene. To explore the inheritance and molecular basis of black shank trait in a cultivated W strain, this study first conducted reciprocal crossing test between mature male and female chickens (1♂∶5♀) from the W line (black feather black shank) and the Rhode Island Red line (yellow feather yellow shank), followed by transcriptome analysis on the shank skin samples collected from the female offspring (4 chicks with black shank and 4 chicks with yellow shank) of the reciprocal crosses. The results showed that there were 293 chicks with black shank (♂172, ♀121) and 51 chicks with yellow shank (♂20, ♀31) in the cross of the W line with the Rhode Island Red line, there were 256 chicks with black shank (♂156, ♀100) and 73 chicks with yellow shank (♂29, ♀44) in the reciprocal cross, the offspring of both crosses had two shank colors, and the number of the chicks with black shank was significantly higher than that with yellow shank in each cross, indicating that the black shank trait of the W line belongs to autosomal dominant inheritance. Based on the statistics of shank color and feather color in the offspring of the breeding groups with shank color separation, it was found that the chicks with black shank had black feathers and the chicks with yellow shank had yellow feathers, the number of the chicks with black shank to that with yellow shank (121∶117) conformed to the separation ratio of 1∶1, suggesting that the black vs. yellow shank traits in the cultivated strain were controlled by a pair of alleles. The transcriptome analysis of shank skin samples showed that the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were significantly enriched in Melanogenesis pathway (P < 0.01), the expression of Mc1r and the genes, such as Tyr and Tyrp1, which are known to be involved in the regulation of melanin synthesis was significantly different between black and yellow shank skin samples, and some other genes, such as Wnt16, Wnt3a, Fzd10, that are not previously reported to be involved in shank color formation, also showed significant difference. In addition to the Melanogenesis pathway, black shank formation was also involved in extracellular matrix and receptor signaling, signal transduction, cell cytoskeleton and migration, cell adhesion, sphingolipid and glycolipid metabolisms. In conclusion, based on genetic analysis and transcriptome analysis, this study inferred that the black shank trait in the cultivated W strain was regulated by Mc1r gene, was inherited in autosomal dominant mode, the formation of black shank trait involved multiple signaling pathways, which laid a foundation for clarifying the mechanism underlying formation of black shank trait.
