Molecular marker located on pig chromosome 12 and related to formation of pig monocrchidism and application
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of molecular biotechnology and molecular marker, and particularly relates to a molecular marker located on a pig No. 12 chromosome and related to formation of a pig mono-testis and application thereof.
Background
The slaughtering amount of domestic pigs accounts for more than half of the total slaughtering amount of the domestic pigs in the world, and the output value created by the pig raising industry and the economic benefit generated by the production value have very important influence on the development of the economic society. However, the various genetic defects and diseases of swine often result in significant breeding and economic losses to the swine industry. The pig monorchid character, namely that the piglet only has one testis after birth, and the individual with the genetic defect is eliminated in the breeding process. On one hand, the main reason for causing the character of the pig mono-testis is the genetic factor, and the pig mono-testis is taken as a complex character and is controlled by polygene; on the other hand, for the breeding pig farm, the breeding boar with the genetic defect of the single testis loses the breeding value and is eliminated, which directly causes the economic loss of the breeding pig farm. Therefore, it is very important to identify Quantitative Trait Loci (QTL) affecting the pig monorchid trait. At present, the QTL detection research method for complex economic traits of livestock and poultry comprises three methods: candidate Gene Analysis (CGA), QTL linkage analysis (QTL linkage analysis, also known as QTL mapping), and Genome-wide association analysis (GWAS).
The candidate gene method is to explore the relation between the candidate gene and the target character on the premise that the physiological function and the strong correlation in the growth and development process exist between the candidate gene and the target character. Although the method has the advantages of simple operation and low total cost, the method only aims at the genes with known biological functions and cannot find the QTL with unknown biological functions. With the development of molecular biology, the emergence of QTL mapping based on pedigree and molecular markers has broken this limitation. Compared with a candidate gene method, the QTL positioning method researches the relationship between genetic markers and characters in the whole genome range, and the corresponding position of the QTL in the genome is judged by acquiring the linkage disequilibrium relationship between the genetic markers and the QTL. The QTL positioning method is a relatively precise positioning method, but still has the defects of poor resolution, incapability of accurately positioning the QTL related to the characters at one time, incapability of analyzing a plurality of characters at one time, long period, low efficiency and the like. GWAS is considered as a new approach for high resolution genetic analysis. With the rapid development of genomics, high-throughput sequencing technology, high-density SNP chip technology and computer technology, GWAS gradually replaces QTL positioning method to become an important means for candidate gene identification and genetic analysis of complex traits, and is widely applied to human beings, plants and animals.
The Duroc pig as lean type pig breed has the characteristics of strong adaptability, wide distribution, fast growth speed, high feed conversion efficiency, high carcass lean meat percentage and the like, and is widely used as a terminal male parent of a Duroc (Duroc X long white pig X big white pig) commercial pig. Duroc pigs serve as terminal male parents, all performance indexes of the Duroc pigs have extremely high standards, breeding of the Duroc boars is very important, and the Duroc boars with genetic defects can directly influence the income of a breeding farm. Therefore, the research on the potential pathogenic site causing the single testis character of the core group of the Duroc pigs and the genetic improvement can reduce the great economic loss brought by the genetic defect to the maximum extent to the fastest extent for breeding enterprises and ensure the profit of the enterprises.

Experimental swinery: in the experiment, 504 pure-breed doloc from a core field of a Swine thigh pig are used together. The swinery can feed and drink water freely, the whole feeding mode, feeding conditions and the like are always consistent, and the method is a conventional method.
Example 1 the process of the invention for obtaining the Gene marker of the invention
(1) The extraction method of pure Duroc pig ear sample tissue DNA refers to the phenol-chloroform labeling method to extract the whole genome DNA. The DNA of the pure Duroc population was subjected to quality detection and concentration measurement using a Nanodrop-ND1000 spectrophotometer. The ratio of A260/280 is 1.8-2.0, and the ratio of A260/230 is 1.7-1.9. Finally, the qualified DNA samples were uniformly diluted to 50 ng/L.
(2) And (3) detecting the 50K SNP genotype of the whole genome of the pig: a GeneSeek Genomic Profile Portine 50K SNP typing platform adopts instructions of Illumina Infinium and standard flow to perform chip hybridization and result scanning. Finally, reading genotype data through genome studio software. Quality control of obtained genotype data by PLINK v1.07, and rejection rate<99.7%, Frequency of the minor allele (Mimor Allel Frequency, MAF)<0.01% or a deviation from Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium (HWE) P of 10-6SNP marker of (1), exclusion of detection Rate<90%, individuals with a familial mendelian error rate higher than 0.1; the remaining 46462 SNP markers and 504 samples were quality controlled for subsequent data analysis.
(3) Genome Wide Association (GWAS) analysis: in order to eliminate the population stratification effect, the GWAS analysis is carried out by adopting single-point regression analysis of a linear mixed model and combining with an R language GenABEL software package, and the stratification effect is corrected by utilizing the similarity of genomes among individuals in an analysis model. Determining the significance threshold of the SNP and single testis character association degree by adopting a Bonferrini method, wherein the genome level significance threshold is 0.05 divided by the number of effective SNP loci, namely the genome significance threshold is 1.07615 multiplied by 10-6I.e., 0.05/46462 (effective number of SNPs); the chromosome level significance threshold value is 1 divided by the number of effective SNP loci, namely the chromosome significance level threshold value is 2.15230 multiplied by 10-5I.e., 1/46462 (effective SNP number).
The GWAS analysis results are shown in fig. 1. As can be seen from FIG. 1, in Duroc, there is a site in chromosome 12 that significantly affects the pig monorchidism trait, and the most strongly associated SNP is g.193T>C(P=2.83×10-8)。
(4) Correlation analysis of different genotypes with the porcine testis number phenotype:
as can be seen from Table 1, the SNP site g.193T > C (nucleotide 193 in SEQ NO. 1) of the molecular marker has a very significant association with the characteristics of the mono-testis. In the duroc population, the prevalence of CC genotype pigs is 0.07, the prevalence of TC genotype pigs is 0.26, and the prevalence of TT genotype pigs is 1. Therefore, the TT genotype is preliminarily presumed to be a potential pathogenic genotype for the pig monorchidism character. In addition, the results of the independence test performed based on the genotype frequency indicate that the distribution of the genotype frequency of the SNP site g.193T > C of the molecular marker in the diseased and normal groups is very significantly different (P < 0.01).

Example 3 SNP site g.193T > C Effect analysis of molecular markers
As can be seen from Table 1, the SNP site g.193T > C (nucleotide 193 in SEQ NO. 1) of the molecular marker has a very significant association with the characteristics of the mono-testis. In the duroc population, the prevalence of CC genotype pigs is only 0.07, TC genotype pigs is 0.26, and TT genotype pigs is 1. Therefore, by the molecular marker-assisted selection, pigs with the genotype TT in the group are gradually eliminated, the allele frequency of the allele C can be obviously improved, the occurrence rate of the pig monorchidism is reduced, the breeding loss is reduced, and the improvement progress of the pig genetic defect is accelerated, so that the economic benefit of the breeding of the pigs is effectively improved, and the core competitiveness is increased.
The invention provides a new molecular marker for the molecular marker-assisted selection of pigs by detecting the 193 rd base mutation site in the SEQ ID NO.1 sequence and primarily performing the correlation analysis between the genotype and the occurrence of the pig monorchidics, and can establish a high-efficiency and accurate molecular marker-assisted breeding technology by utilizing the molecular marker and a corresponding primer pair.
