Analysis of single nucleotide polymorphisms in three genes shows evidence for genetic isolation of certain Aspergillus flavus vegetative compatibility groups.
Genetic exchange by asexual filamentous fungi is presumed to be limited to isolates in the same vegetative compatibility group (VCG). To evaluate genetic isolation of Aspergillus flavus due to vegetative incompatibility, three gene regions were chosen that contained closely spaced nucleotides that were polymorphic among some of the six VCGs examined. A member of each VCG was collected from five...
متن کاملAnalysis of Soil Populations of Aspergillus flavus Link. from Pistachio Orchards in Iran for Vegetative Compatibility
One hundred-thirty soil isolates of A. flavus were collected from commercial pistachio orchards in two main production regions including Rafsanjan (Kerman Province, south-eastern of Iran) and Damghan (Semnan Province, central north of Iran) and assayed for vegetative compatibility groups (VCGs). The sixteen and twenty VCGs were identified for 41 and 37 nit-mutant producing isolates of A. flavus...
متن کاملGenetic isolation among sympatric vegetative compatibility groups of the aflatoxin-producing fungus Aspergillus flavus.
Aspergillus flavus, a fungal pathogen of animals and both wild and economically important plants, is most recognized for producing aflatoxin, a cancer-causing secondary metabolite that contaminates food and animal feed globally. Aspergillus flavus has two self/nonself recognition systems, a sexual compatibility system and a vegetative incompatibility system, and both play a role in directing ge...
متن کاملDNA Fingerprinting Analysis of Vegetative Compatibility Groups in Aspergillus flavus from a Peanut Field in Georgia
Aspergillus flavus Link:Fr. may infect seed of corn, cotton, peanut, and tree nuts and contaminate them with aflatoxins, which are potent hepatoxic, carcinogenic metabolites that pose a significant health hazard (3,4). Members of Aspergillus section Flavi are widespread in crop fields, particularly in subtropical to tropical latitudes (5,11,17,19). Population biologists seek to understand the g...
متن کاملIn silico analysis for determining the deleterious nonsynonymous single nucleotide polymorphisms of BRCA genes
Recent advances in DNA sequencing techniques have led to an increase in the identification of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes, but no further information regarding the deleterious probability of many of them is available (Variants of Unknown Significance/VUS). As a result, in the current study, different sequence- and structure-based computation...
