“…Knowledge of the distribution of Bov-B LINEs has been limited to the Ruminantia and Viperidae snakes (15,16,21). Here, we present a broader insight into the evolutionary history of Bov-B LINEs and their distribution within eukaryotes (vertebrates, invertebrates, and plants).…”

“…Our analyses indicate that the lizard Bov-B LINEs are ancestral, and the known distribution of these elements in reptiles supports this observation. The direction of the horizontal transfer from the Squamata to the ancestor of Ruminantia that arose during the Eocene 40-50 million years (My) ago is indicated also by the presence of these elements in Tragulidae (15), the most ancestral lineage of Ruminantia. The phylogenetic relationships of Bov-B LINEs clearly indicate that these elements have been transmitted horizontally from the ancestor of Colubroidea snakes to the ancestor of Ruminantia because all true ruminants possess this element.…”

“…The Bov-B LINEs are abundant in Ruminantia (15,16) and Squamata (21) genomes, so their presence in other vertebrates and invertebrates should have been found in the databases. By searching RepBase, GenBank, and EMBL databases, we found no evidence for the presence of Bov-B LINEs outside Squamata and Ruminantia except the four snake genes, which provide therefore an independent proof of their presence (21).…”

“…It later was found to be specific for the suborder Ruminantia (15,16). Subsequently, longer members of Bov-B LINEs were isolated from the bovine genome and confirmed to be LINEs (17)(18)(19).…”

We have shown previously by Southern blot analysis that Bov-B long interspersed nuclear elements (LINEs) are present in different Viperidae snake species. To address the question as to whether Bov-B LINEs really have been transmitted horizontally between vertebrate classes, the analysis has been extended to a larger number of vertebrate, invertebrate, and plant species. In this paper, the evolutionary origin of Bov-B LINEs is shown unequivocally to be in Squamata Long interspersed nuclear elements (LINEs) or non-long terminal repeat retrotransposons are interspersed in all eukaryotic genomes so far studied and appear to include a few active elements and a large number of 5Ј truncated and nonfunctional copies (1). These elements have quite a narrow distribution and are mostly genus-, family-, order-, or classspecific, like LINE-1 elements in mammals (2). The only example of a LINE family with phylum-wide distribution is the vertebrate CR1-LINEs (3). The mammalian LINE-1 (4) and arthropod R1 and R2 elements (5, 6) are stable components and have been maintained by vertical transmission in their genomes throughout the entire history of mammalian and arthropod lineages. Recently, several reports raised the

“…Bov-B is shared by all ruminants and Bov-B insertions have occurred early on, as well as later, during the evolution of this suborder (Jobse et al 1995;Nijman et al 2002). Sheikh et al (2002) have cloned, sequenced, and compared repetitive PstI fragments from the genomes of cattle, goat, and water buffalo.…”

Water buffalo (Bubalus bubalis), a large‐sized member of the Bovidae family, is considered as an important livestock species throughout Southeast Asia. In order to better understand the molecular basis of buffalo improvement and breeding, we sequenced and assembled the genome (2n=50) of a river buffalo species Bubalus bubalis from Bangladesh. Its genome size is 2.77 Gb, with a contig N50 of 25 kb and the scaffold N50 of 6.9 Mbp. Based on the assembled genome, we annotated 24,613 genes for future functional genomics studies. Phylogenetic tree analysis of cattle and water buffalo lineages showed that they diverged about 5.8–9.8 million years ago. Our findings provide an insight into the water buffalo genome which will contribute in further research on buffalo such as molecular breeding, understanding complex traits, conservation, and biodiversity.
