摘要:

旨在揭示拜城油鸡、和田鸡和吐鲁番鸡等3种新疆地方鸡相互之间的遗传关系和基因组差异,从而在基因组层面为新疆地方鸡遗传资源的保护与开发提供科学依据。本研究以65份鸡的全基因组重测序数据为对象,借助Rstudio、Plink、Pedstats等软件对数据实施过滤处理;通过状态同源(identical by state,IBS)多维标度分析不同鸡种的群体遗传结构,利用Treemix及Dsuite开展基因渗入(gene introgression)分析,采用群体间单倍体扩增纯合性检测(cross population extended haplotype homozygosity,XP-EHH)及跨群体的符合似然比检验(cross population composite likelihood radio test,XP-CLR)挖掘选择信号。数据质控后,10 228 705个常染色体的单核苷酸多态位点(single nucleotide polymorphism,SNP)用于基因渗入和选择信号的研究,4 657 217个最小等位基因频率(minor allele frequency,MAF)≥0.2的常染色体SNPs则被用来进行遗传关系分析。群体遗传关系分析显示,拜城油鸡和吐鲁番鸡的遗传距离最远,遗传分化系数达到(genetic differentiation coefficient,FST)0.077 7,和田鸡与拜城油鸡及吐鲁番鸡的遗传距离较近,FST分别为0.053 5和0.056 3。且和田鸡与吐鲁番鸡之间存在一次基因渗入,渗入信号最强的区域位于4号染色体,该区域包含ABLIM2等与耐热性能相关的基因。而在拜城油鸡与吐鲁番鸡的选择信号分析中,共筛选出70个参与关键生物学进程的候选基因。其中,CLCN6、ACTA2、CRIM1、IARS2等基因可能与耐热性能相关;BNIP2、DTNARAB3GAP2等基因可能涉及肌肉生长调控;AGMOTSNARE1等基因则可能与斗鸡攻击性行为的形成有关。研究清晰地揭示了新疆3种地方鸡种之间存在的遗传关系,发现了和田鸡与吐鲁番鸡之间存在的基因组渗入区域及相关基因,鉴定了拜城油鸡和吐鲁番鸡之间的基因组选择区域及其中包括的与耐热性、肌肉生长、斗鸡攻击性行为等特色性状相关的候选基因,从而为新疆地方鸡种特色性状的保护和利用提供分子依据。

Abstract:

This study aimed to reveal the genetic relationships and genomic differences among 3 Xinjiang local chicken breeds including Baicheng-You chickens, Hetian chickens, and Tulufan chickens, so as to provide references for the protection and utilization of genetic resources of local domestic chickens in Xinjiang at the genomic level. The research took 65 chickens whole-genome resequencing datasets as the research objects and utilized softwares such as Rstudio, Plink, and Pedstats to filter the data. The population genetic structure of different chicken breeds was analyzed through identical by state (IBS) multi-dimensional scaling. Gene infiltration analysis was carried out using Treemix and Dsuite. The selection signals were mined by using the cross population extended haplotype homozygosity (XP-EHH) and cross population composite likelihood radio test (XP-CLR) methods. After filtering, a total of 10 228 705 autosomal single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were obtained for analyzing the introgression and selection signals, while 4 657 217 autosomal SNPs with minor allele frequency (MAF)≥0.2 were used for genetic relationship analysis. The results of genetic relationship showed that the genetic distance between Baicheng-You and Tulufan chickens was farthest, and their genetic differentiation coefficient (FST) was 0.077 7, while the genetic distance between Hetian and Baicheng-You, Tulufan chickens were close and the FST was 0.053 5 and 0.056 3, respectively. Furthermore, there was an introgression event between Hetian and Tulufan chickens. The highest score of introgression region located in the chromosome 4, which contained some genes associated with heat tolerance, such as ABLIM2. While selection signals analysis between Baicheng-You and Tulufan chickens identified 70 candidate genes involved in important biological processes. Among them, genes such as CLCN6, ACTA2, CRIM1, and IARS2 might be related to the heat resistance performance; Genes such as BNIP2, DTNA, and RAB3GAP2 might be involved in the regulation of muscle growth; Genes such as AGMOTSNARE1 might be related to the formation of aggressive behavior in cockfighting. The research clearly revealed the genetic relationships among 3 local chicken breeds in Xinjiang, discovered the genomic infiltration regions and related genes between the Hetian and Tulufan chickens, and identified the genomic selection regions between the Baicheng-You and Tulufan chickens and the candidate genes related to characteristic traits such as heat tolerance, muscle growth, and aggressive behavior of fighting chickens. Thus providing molecular basis for the protection and utilization of the characteristic traits of chicken breeds in Xinjiang.
