Development of eight novel microsatellite markers for Huoyan geese

Abstract: ABSTRACT. In this study, we isolated microsatellite DNA from the Huoyan goose genome with magnetic beads. As a result, 150 positive clones were identified, and 148 microsatellites were found. Among the 148 microsatellites, 69.6% were perfect, 17.6% were imperfect, and the rest were compound type (12.8%). Twenty microsatellite primers were used to screen 90 individuals from 3 Huoyan goose populations. Eight loci were polymorphic with a low number of alleles (2 to 4). The observed and expected heterozygosities r… Show more

“…The Na values in this study always had at least five alleles (ranging from 5 to 38 alleles) in order to reduce the standard errors of the distance estimates [ 36 ]. The Na, Ne, and PIC values across all the loci were 11.09, 5.145, and 0.705, respectively, indicating higher genetic variability and diversity in the investigated geese than among domestic geese from other areas [ 12 , 14 , 44 ]. Significant deviation from the HWE was observed in only four of the 21 loci.…”

“…Currently there are known same microsatellite markers isolated and evaluated in the wild form of geese as greylag goose Anser anser (Wieß et al, 2008), Canada goose Branta canadensis L. (Cathey et al, 1998), swan goose Anser cygnoides L. (Tu et al, 2006, white-fronted goose Anser albifrons (Fields et al, 1997), pink-footed goose Anser brachyrhynchus (Noreikiene, 2012), Anser fabalis (Kleven et al, 2016). Anatidae specific microsatellite markers for study of genetic diversity were used in Chinese (Liu et al, 2006;Tu et al, 2006;Cao et al, 2014), Hungarian, Embden (Aliczky, 2007) and Zatorska (Andres and Kapkowska, 2011) domestic goose breeds. The objective if this study was preliminary characterization of the levels of the genetic diversity of two critically endangered and one extinct national breeds of goose, using the microsatellite loci analysis.…”
