Current status of the river buffalo (Bubalus bubalis L.) gene map.

چکیده
Ninety-nine loci have been assigned to river buffalo chromosomes, 67 of which are coding genes and 32 of which are anonymous DNA segments (microsatellites). Sixty-seven assignments were based on cosegregation of cellular markers in somatic cell hybrids (synteny), whereas 39 were based on in situ hybridization of fixed metaphase chromosomes with labeled DNA probes. Seven loci were assigned by both methods. Of the 67 assignments in somatic cell hybrids, 38 were based on polymerase chain reaction (PCR), 11 on isozyme electrophoresis, 10 on restriction endonuclease digestion of DNA, 4 on immunofluorescence, and 4 on chromosomal identification. A genetic marker or syntenic group has been assigned to each arm of the five submetacentric buffalo chromosomes as well as to the 19 acrocentric autosomes, and the X and Y chromosomes. These same markers map to the 29 cattle autosomes and the X and Y chromosomes, and without exception, cattle markers map to the buffalo chromosome or chromosomal region predicted from chromosome banding similarity.

متن کاملA radiation hybrid map of river buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) chromosome 1 (BBU1).
The largest chromosome in the river buffalo karyotype, BBU1, is a submetacentric chromosome with reported homology between BBU1q and bovine chromosome 1 and between BBU1p and BTA27. We present the first radiation hybrid map of this chromosome containing 69 cattle derived markers including 48 coding genes, 17 microsatellites and four ESTs distributed in two linkage groups spanning a total length...

River buffalo, Bubalus bubalis is a large bovine species frequently used livestock in southern Asia. It is believed that the river buffalo was domesticated from Bubalus arnee, the wild buffalo of mainland Asia, a few thousand years ago, probably during the period of Indus Valley civilization. However, the domestication history of the river buffalo has been the subject of debate for many decades...

The DRB3 gene is a highly polymorphic major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II gene and plays an important role in variability of immune responsiveness and disease resistance. In the present study, the MHC class II DRB3 gene in water buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) populations from Northwest regions of Iran was investigated through PCR-SSCP. Genomic DNA was extracted from whole blood samples c...
