Abstract:

This study was aimed to investigate the single nucleotide polymorphisms(SNP) of DGAT2 gene in buffalo,and explore the population genetic characteristics of the polymorphism in Murrah buffalo.A total of 57 Murrah buffaloes from Guangxi buffalo research institute were selected as materials,the exon 2,introns 2 and 3 sequences of DGAT2 gene were amplified by PCR,SNP was detected using conventional sequencing,gene frequency and genotype frequency,polymorphism information content (PIC),effective number of alleles (Ne) and detection of genetic heterozygosity (He) were analyzed by genetic diversity analysis software (POPGENE) and SPSS softwares.The results showed that 9 SNPs loci were found of DGAT2 gene exon 2,introns 2 and 3 in Murrah buffalo (IVS2.54 G > A,IVS2.158 A > G,EVS2.191 A > G,EVS2.228 A > G,IVS3.311 C > T,IVS3.444 A > G,IVS3.451 A > C,IVS3.466 C > T and IVS3.521 C > T),EVS2.191 A > G caused the amino acid to be changed from isoleucine to valine,and there was a certain degree of linkage inheritance between the mutation sites but close to the chain equilibrium state.There was more difference between two allele frequency of 6 SNPs loci (IVS2.158 A > G,EVS2.191 A > G,IVS3.311 C > T,IVS3.451 A > C,IVS3.466 C > T and IVS3.521 C > T).It was suggested that the higher allele frequency individuals might be more suitable for survival.9 SNPs loci in DGAT2 gene in the buffalo species were high polymorphism,the heterozygosity were 0.1744 to 0.4975,which illustrated the buffalo populations DGAT2 gene genetic polymorphism was rich,and had a great breeding value and strain improvement potential.
