“…Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) has been extensively used to investigate the origin and diversification of modern domestic donkey, cattle, and goat populations (Ivankovic et al 2002;Jeon et al 2005;Odahara et al 2006;Sasazaki et al 2006;Liu et al 2007;Lei et al 2007). In the current study, sequence analysis of the cytochrome b (Cytb) gene was applied since this gene contains species-specific information.…”

To clarify the origin of Chinese domestic donkeys, we investigated the mitochondrial Cytb gene from 244 animals from 13 native breeds. We found 55 variable sites in the Cytb gene sequence and subsequently defined 58 haplotypes. Analysis of haplotypes in combination with Cytb sequences revealed two mitochondrial origins in Chinese domestic donkeys, phenotypically expressed by the Somalian and Nubian lineages. The Somalian lineage predominated in Chinese domestic donkey breeds. Five specific Cytb gene SNPs diagnostic of each of the lineages were found in this study: 225(T-C), 237(C-T), 915(C-T), 1014(C-T), and 1134(A-G) mutations. They effectively distinguish the Nubian from the Somalian lineage in the mtDNA Cytb gene. Both lineages are from Africa and thus support the African maternal origins of Chinese domestic donkeys. No obvious geographic structure was found in Chinese domestic donkey breeds, but the population showed abundant genetic diversity.

“…Due to its monomorphism, the MT-CYB sequence was not associated with the conformation traits in the raccoon dogs in the present study. Jeon et al (2005) showed significant differences between genotypes identified in the MT-CO2 gene and weight in Hanwoo cattle. Similarly, the results of this study indicate an association between haplotypes (MT-CO1, MT-CO2) and mitochondrial haplogroups as well as body weight and body size of the farmed raccoon dogs.…”

“…The association between conformation traits and mtDNA haplotypes has been evidenced as well (Jeon et al 2005;Yen et al 2007;Zhang et al 2008;Chen et al 2009). Statistically significant differences between mtDNA haplotypes and piglet body weight (Yen et al 2007) as well as the height and length of the body in Nanyang cattle have been proved (Zhang et al 2008).…”

“…Given the key role of mitochondrial DNA in the cell respiration process, there have been attempts in recent years at determining the association between mtDNA polymorphisms with economically important performance and functional traits in populations of various livestock animals (Sutarno et al 2002;Mannen et al 2003;Jeon et al 2005;Yen et al 2007;Fernandez et al 2008;Reicher et al 2012;Slaska et al 2016).…”

The relationships between chosen mitochondrial genes polymorphisms and performance traits in raccoon dogs were determined. The study involved 354 farmed raccoon dogs. Blood collected from the animals was the analysed biological material. Mitochondrial DNA genes, i.e. MT-CO1 (mitochondrially encoded cytochrome c oxidase I), MT-CO2 (mitochondrially encoded cytochrome c oxidase II), and MT-CYB (mitochondrially encoded cytochrome b) were amplified using the polymerase chain reaction method. The amplicons obtained were sequenced and subjected to bioinformatics analysis. Based on the nucleotide sequences, three haplotypes for the MT-CO1 gene fragment and two haplotypes for the MT-CO2 gene fragment were identified. The sequence of the MT-CYB gene was monomorphic. Based on the haplotypes, five previously undescribed mitochondrial haplogroups were determined. Statistical analysis revealed significant differences between the values of three of the five investigated performance traits of raccoon dogs and the identified haplotypes and mitochondrial haplogroups, taking into account predictors of direct additive effects, additive maternal effects, and fixed specific maternal environmental effects. The new mitochondrial haplogroups identified in the farmed raccoon dog population may imply constant emergence of adaptive mutations that are conserved in subsequent generations. The results of the association study indicate a statistically significant association between haplotypes and mitochondrial haplogroups of farmed raccoon dogs and their body weight, body size, and colour type, which allows considering MT-CO1 and MT-CO2 genes as candidate genes encoding these traits in raccoon dogs. The results of the molecular analyses can be applied to improve the performance traits in farmed raccoon dogs.

“…They pointed to the statistically significant relationship of the mtDNA gene СOXII haplotypes and haplogroups with the productive traits of raccoon dogs, such as weight, body size and colour type. Jeon et al (2005) showed significant differences between genotypes identified in the mitochondrial gene COXII and weight in Hanwoo cattle. Results from the Ślaska et al (2016) indicate that the COXII mitochondrial gene may be involved in hair development.…”

The mitochondrial genome encodes key electron transfer chain (ETC) proteins which produce the vast majority of cellular ATP. Sequence analysis of maternal inherited mitochondrial DNA is an effective way to assess the individual characteristics of commercial breeding lines of pigs. The aims of our study were to analyze the nucleotide sequence of the mitochondrial gene COXII in Large White pigs, to search for polymorphisms and to evaluate their associations with pigs productive abilities and the backfat thickness. The studied pigs of Large White were divided in two groups. The first group (LW-1) was consisted of pigs bred in Russian Federation since 1998. The second group (LW-2) included pigs of Large White imported in 2014 to Russia from England. To evaluate the associations of the COXII gene haplotypes with productive qualities, 96 sow LW-1 were selected. The variability analysis of the COXII revealed the presence of three haplotypes: Hap_1 (TTTCTGGAT, in positions m.
