Single nucleotide polymorphism discovery in albacore and Atlantic bluefin tuna provides insights into worldwide population structure

Abstract: The optimal management of the commercially important, but mostly over-exploited, pelagic tunas, albacore (Thunnus alalunga Bonn., 1788) and Atlantic bluefin tuna (BFT; Thunnus thynnus L., 1758), requires a better understanding of population structure than has been provided by previous molecular methods. Despite numerous studies of both species, their population structures remain controversial. This study reports the development of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in albacore and BFT and the application o… Show more

“…Under the assumption of natal homing, we expect that female-mediated gene flow between eastern and western populations of bluefin tuna would be limited, resulting in genetically distinct populations. Longitudinal patterns of genetic structuring (west to east) have been reported recently for bluefin tuna, and individuals from eastern (Mediterranean Sea) and western (Gulf of Mexico) spawning grounds are genetically distinct based on analysis of mtDNA control region sequence data (Φ st ) (Boustany et al 2008), microsatellites (Carlsson et al 2007), and single nucleotide polymorphisms (Albaina et al 2013). In response, the natal homing scenario proposed here for bluefin tuna based on δ 13 C and δ…”

“…Analyses of DNA microsatellites (Carlsson et al 2007), mitochondrial DNA (Boustany et al 2008) and single nucleotide polymorphisms (Albaina et al 2013) all show significant genetic divergence of the two populations. In addition, there is evidence of genetic heterogeneity within the Mediterranean, and the existence of separate spawning populations in the western and eastern Mediterranean has been proposed (Carlsson et al 2004;Riccioni et al 2010).…”

“…Therefore, flanking sequences are highly conserved between species and suitable for designing primers/probes that successfully cross-amplify in closely related species [45]. Most of the previous studies for non-model species (Table 3) have discovered SNPs through cross-species amplification based on the emulsion, paired isolation, and concatenation polymerase chain reaction (EPIC-PCR) method [46][47][48], in which primers are designed on exon regions to amplify the intron [49]. However, the EPIC-PCR has been ousted by transcriptome sequencing through high throughput sequencing, the strategy chosen in the present study, which allows the discovery of thousands of potential SNPs that can be used for cross-species amplification [50,51].…”

“…Nevertheless, the validation rate obtained in the present study was high compared to that of previous studies (Table 3). Albaina et al [47] conducted a cross-species amplification of SNPs from albacore to Atlantic bluefin tuna, and obtained a validation rate of 18%; the reciprocal cross resulted in a validation success of 24.2% [51]. Cross-amplification success between Atlantic and Pacific herring, Clupea harengus and Clupea pallasii respectively, is even lower, 11.9% [50].…”
