Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of molecular biology detection, and in particular to SNP molecular markers related to yak immune traits and applications thereof. Background Art

[0002] In the yak farming industry, diseases pose a serious threat to their health and cause economic losses. Although some diseases can be prevented by improving feeding management and using drugs and vaccines, these measures have not been able to effectively control the spread of infectious diseases. At the same time, the widespread use of drugs may lead to the development of drug resistance, which in turn affects the safety of livestock products.

[0003] From a long-term perspective, research on the genetic basis of disease resistance, screening for disease resistance-related genes, and conducting disease-resistant breeding at the molecular level to improve yaks' resistance and immunity to pathogens are important ways to fundamentally solve this problem. The potential economic benefits of disease-resistant breeding and its prospects in studying animal models of human diseases are driving the development of this field. With the advancement of molecular biology, molecular genetics, and genetic engineering technology, disease-resistant breeding has played an increasingly important role in yak breeding.

[0004] Yaks live in plateau areas and face harsh environmental conditions, which requires them to have stronger disease resistance to adapt to environmental pressures such as high altitude, low air pressure, strong ultraviolet rays, hypoxia and malnutrition. Therefore, improving the disease resistance of yaks is crucial to improving their adaptability.

[0005] Immune indicators are an important basis for reflecting the disease resistance of animals, which mainly depends on the health status and function of the immune system. The immune system is responsible for identifying and eliminating pathogens that invade the body, such as bacteria and viruses. When pathogens invade, the immune system will respond quickly and initiate a series of immune responses to resist and eliminate pathogens. Immune indicators usually include multiple parameters such as antibody levels, number of immune cells, inflammatory indicators, and cytokines. Antibodies are produced by B cells, are specific, and can effectively bind to and neutralize pathogens, thereby enhancing the efficiency of the overall immune response. In addition, the number and function of immune cells are important indicators for assessing the health status of the immune system. When attacked by pathogens, immune cells will be quickly activated and begin to proliferate to enhance their ability to respond to infections. At the same time, the levels of inflammatory indicators and cytokines also reflect the response status of the immune system, helping to monitor and regulate the intensity and duration of immune responses, ensuring that the immune system can effectively respond to challenges and maintain overall health.

[0006] Therefore, immune indicators can be used as an important reference for evaluating the disease resistance and health status of animals. By monitoring the changes in immune indicators, animal immune problems can be identified in a timely manner, and corresponding measures can be taken to improve their disease resistance, prevent and treat diseases.

[0007] Finding mutation sites related to disease resistance at the genetic level and using genetics and genetic engineering techniques to conduct association analysis to discover the relationship between genes and traits and conduct early selection will greatly improve the efficiency and accuracy of seed selection and has broad application prospects.

[0064] The PCR products were tested by 1% agarose gel electrophoresis. After the PCR products passed the agarose gel electrophoresis test, they were sequenced by direct sequencing, and the sequencing was completed by Beijing Qingke Biotechnology Co., Ltd. Figure 1 shown. Figure 1 The results showed that the length of the sequence obtained by PCR amplification was 485 bp, and sequencing showed that a G / A mutation occurred in the 144th nucleotide sequence of the amplified product (base 55577127 on chromosome 22 of the genome LU_Bosgru_v3.0 version).

The general linear model in IBM SPSS Statistics 26 software was used to analyze the association between different genotypes of yaks and immunoglobulins IgA, IgG, and IgM. The results are expressed as "mean ± standard error".

[0071] 5 Results

[0072] 5.1 PCR amplification and sequencing results

[0073] The amplified product of the g55577127G>A SNP site on chromosome 22 of yak was detected by 1% agarose gel (see Figure 1 ), the bands were clear without any other bands, the specificity was good, and the PCR product fragment size was 485bp, which was in line with the expected size, so the next step of the experiment could be carried out.

[0074] The peak diagram and sequence obtained after the PCR product was purified and sequenced are shown in Figure 2 .Depend on Figure 2It can be seen that a G-A mutation occurred at the g55577127G>A SNP locus, and there are three genotypes: GG, GA, and AA.

[0075] 5.2 Statistical analysis results

[0076] From the perspective of population genetics, the genotypes and allele frequencies of the g55577127G>A SNP locus on chromosome 22 of yaks were analyzed. As shown in Table 1, at the g55577127G>A SNP locus, the GG genotype frequency was the highest, being the dominant genotype, and the G allele frequency was 73.4%, showing as the dominant allele. By χ 2 The fitness test showed that the SNP locus significantly deviated from the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium state (P<0.05) (Table 1). The expected heterozygosity of this locus was 0.390, and the PIC was 0.314. Since 0.25<PIC<0.50, it belongs to moderate polymorphism.

[0079]

[0080] 5.3 Association analysis of different genotypes with immunoglobulins IgA, IgG, and IgM

[0081] The general linear model in IBM SPSS Statistics 26 software was used to analyze the association between different genotypes of yaks and the contents of immunoglobulins IgA, IgG, and IgM. The results showed that the IgA content of yak individuals with AA and GA genotypes was significantly higher than that of GG genotype individuals (p<0.05), the IgG content of yak individuals with AA genotype was significantly higher than that of GG genotype individuals (p<0.05), there was no significant difference in the IgA and IgG contents between AA and GA genotype individuals (p>0.05), and there was also no significant difference between GA and AA genotype yak individuals (p>0.05). The IgM content of yak individuals with AA genotype was significantly higher than that of GA and GG genotype individuals (p<0.05), and the IgM content of yak individuals with GA genotype was significantly higher than that of GG genotype individuals (p<0.05).
