Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the field of gene chip technology and gene molecular breeding technology, and specifically relates to a sika deer whole genome high-density SNP breeding chip and application thereof. Background Art
[0002] With the development of genetics and high-throughput sequencing technology, molecular markers, especially SNPs, have been widely used in a variety of plants and animals. Gene chips composed of dense whole-genome SNPs have become a valuable tool for analyzing genomic information. One of the main advantages of SNP chip technology is that it can obtain more information than earlier methods at a relatively low cost. In addition, it has accelerated the development and application of genomic selection in animal and plant breeding, bringing revolutionary changes to the animal genetics industry and research, and has brought great changes to livestock and poultry breeding.
[0003] Sika deer ranks first among special livestock and poultry. It is one of the deer species with important economic and cultural value, and its whole body is a treasure. my country is a country with abundant sika deer resources and breeding power, and it is also the world's largest consumer and importer of deer products. In 2020, sika deer was included in the "National Catalogue of Livestock and Poultry Genetic Resources" for the first time, becoming one of the 33 livestock and poultry species. However, there is a lot of room for technological improvement in the entire industrial chain of my country's sika deer industry from breeding to product development. In particular, the sika deer pedigree is confusing and the breeding technology remains at the phenotypic selection stage, which seriously restricts the development of the sika deer industry. In order to better promote the innovation of the sika deer seed industry and the sustainable and healthy development of the industry, make full use of modern molecular breeding technology, accelerate the improvement of the production performance of my country's sika deer, increase industry benefits and reduce breeding costs, it is urgent to carry out sika deer genome selection breeding.
[0004] Whole genome selection is based on genomic breeding value (GEBV). By detecting molecular markers covering the whole genome, genetic information at the genome level is used to perform genetic evaluation on individuals to obtain higher breeding value estimation accuracy. Selecting traits that are difficult to measure in the early stage shortens the generation interval and accelerates the breeding process, thereby saving a lot of breeding costs. Whole genome selection breeding requires the selection of high-density SNP chips, and medium and low-density chips cannot meet the requirements. Therefore, the existing sika deer 40K liquid phase SNP chip in the field cannot meet the requirements of whole genome selection breeding. Its site design is only derived from sika deer in Northeast China, and the sample resequencing depth is low. Therefore, it is urgent to develop a sika deer whole genome breeding chip with a wider genetic background and higher density to meet the application of sika deer whole genome selection.

[0037] The embodiments of the technical solution of the present invention are described in detail below. The following embodiments are only used to more clearly illustrate the technical solution of the present invention, and are therefore only used as examples, and cannot be used to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the technical terms or scientific terms used in this application should be the usual meanings understood by those skilled in the art to which the present invention belongs.
[0038] Example 1 Design and preparation of sika deer 100K SNP liquid phase chip
[0039] 1. Establishment of SNP background database of sika deer
[0040] The present invention utilizes the whole genome resequencing data of 196 individuals from 8 sika deer subspecies and 7 sika deer breeds (lines) at home and abroad, and obtains highly reliable SNP sites for subsequent screening through sequencing analysis.
[0041] S1. The experimental population was derived from 196 sika deer individuals from 8 sika deer subspecies at home and abroad: Northeast subspecies, Taiwan subspecies, South China subspecies, Sichuan subspecies, Hokkaido subspecies, Honshu subspecies, Yakushima subspecies, and nominate subspecies and 7 sika deer breeds (lines): Dongda sika deer, Shuangyang sika deer, Dongfeng sika deer, Siping sika deer, Xingkai Lake sika deer, Changbai Mountain sika deer, and Aodong sika deer (Table 2). First, blood was collected from 196 individuals, whole genome DNA was extracted, and whole genome resequencing was performed. The average genome coverage of each sample was nearly 30X. The raw data obtained by sequencing was quality controlled to obtain high-quality clean reads, which were then compared with the reference genome (MHL_v1.0).
[0042] S2. The initial SNP site set was screened under the following conditions: (1) dimorphic sites with missing rate < 0.1, 31,320,156 sites remaining; (2) no tandem sequence adjacent to the target site, 30,819,938 sites remaining; (3) conforming to Hadwinberg equilibrium, 30,388,507 sites remaining; (4) minimal allele frequency MAF> 0.05, 22,752,771 sites remaining; (5) nucleotide polymorphism, pi ≥ 0.25, 13,288,503 sites remaining; (6) high specificity of each 60 bp flanking the target site, no more than 7 SNPs within the 120 bp flanking range, 11,543,014 sites remaining. The remaining sites were retained for subsequent analysis.
[0043] 2. Screening of background sites
[0044] Based on the remaining sites in the resequencing background database, 115K sites were retained according to the principle that the selected SNP sites were evenly distributed in the physical distance of the chromosomes on the genome.
[0045] The 115K sites obtained by the above steps were scored, and the sites were selected based on the scoring results and the priority sliding window 1x, and finally 100K sites remained. The specific genomic coordinates of the 100K sites obtained are shown in Table 1. The 100,000 SNP molecular markers in Table 1 are in the database https: / / ngdc.cncb.ac.cn / National Genome Science Data Center. The distribution of all sites in the chromosomes of the sika deer genome can be found in Figure 1 As shown; the MAF distribution of sites is shown in Figure 2 The mutation frequency distribution of the sites is shown in Figure 3 According to the location of 100,000 SNP sites and the sequence information on both sides, primers were designed and probes were synthesized using targeted capture sequencing technology to obtain the sika deer 100K SNP liquid phase chip.
[0046] Specific method: perform typing check on the candidate sites to be selected, compare the ref base with the reference genome, remove duplicates, retain the correctly typed sites for probe design and scoring. Submit the site set to the Compson probe design system for scoring, and design probes based on the evaluation results of the upstream and downstream sequences of the target site. The complexity of the upstream and downstream sequences of the target site, the GC content, etc. are mainly evaluated. The target site is placed in the middle of the probe, and the designed probe is 120bp in length. Generally, the performance of the probe is comprehensively evaluated from the aspects of GC content (20%-80%), Tm value (60-80℃), and the number of alignments on the reference genome (≤5). According to the design results, a total of 100K high-quality chip customized sites were selected. After the chip site is confirmed to be correct, it is submitted to Compson for chip probe synthesis. The probe length is 120bp, and the 5' end is modified with a DNA nucleotide sequence with a biotin group.

[0254] Example 2 Process of detecting sika deer DNA samples using 100K liquid-phase breeding chip for the whole genome of sika deer
[0255] 1. Sample collection and DNA extraction
[0256] The chip detection sample can be a sika deer jugular vein blood or tissue sample, etc., and the sika deer genomic DNA can be extracted using a genomic DNA extraction kit.
[0257] 2. DNA quality inspection
[0258] Detection of genome integrity by agarose gel electrophoresis: Take the DNA sample to be tested, spot it on 0.8% agarose gel, and perform electrophoresis at 170V for 25 minutes.
[0259] NanoDrop detection of DNA purity: The purity of DNA was detected using NanoDrop2000 nucleic acid protein analyzer. The A260 / A280 ratio was in the range of 1.7-2.1, and the A260 / A230 ratio was between 1.8-2.2, which met the requirements for library construction.
[0260] 3. Construction of Sika Deer DNA Library and Chip Detection
[0261] The genomic DNA samples of sika deer are used to prepare library samples according to the high-throughput library construction reaction kit process. After quality control experiments, the library samples can be used for chip detection, hybridization with chip probes and samples, capture target site regions, sequence on the machine and complete basic bioinformatics analysis, complete target interval variation information analysis of the samples to be tested, and perform genotyping.
[0262] Example 3 Quality evaluation of sika deer 100K whole genome breeding chip genotyping
[0263] According to the steps of Example 2, 32 sika deer were subjected to genotyping detection using the sika deer 100K whole genome breeding chip provided by the present invention, and the following quality evaluation was performed on them.
[0264] 1. Detection rate
[0265] In this example, the capture efficiency of the sample sites of the 32 sika deer tested was between 95.77% and 97.67%, and the average sample detection rate reached 97.23%. Figure 4 This indicates that the sika deer 100K whole genome breeding chip sample detection effect of the present invention is good.
[0266] 2. Genotyping stability
[0267] Three randomly selected sika deer samples were tested and typed twice independently, showing an average typing consistency of 99.51%. Figure 5 This indicates that the sika deer 100K whole genome breeding chip of the present invention has good genotyping stability.
[0268] Example 4 Application of the 100K Sika Deer Whole Genome Breeding Chip in Genetic Background Analysis of Sika Deer
[0269] In this example, 843 sika deer DNA samples (including four large-scale sika deer breeding farms: Aodong 133, Siping 276, Tonghua 337, Zuojia 97) were tested using the sika deer 100K whole genome breeding chip, and the phylogenetic tree and principal component analysis (PCA) were performed on the obtained liquid phase chip target SNP analysis results. The clustering results of the phylogenetic tree are shown in Figure 1. Figure 6 The clustering results of principal component analysis are shown in Figure 7 As shown, the liquid phase chip of the present invention can distinguish the population structure of four species of Northeastern Sika deer, which shows that the chip of the present invention has the function of identifying and distinguishing the species of Sika deer.
[0270] Example 5 Application of the 100K whole genome breeding chip for sika deer in whole genome association analysis of important economic traits of sika deer
[0271] In this example, 98 male sika deer DNA samples were genotyped using the sika deer 100K whole genome breeding chip. A total of 98 individuals were analyzed based on 1-6 saws, and samples with 3-5 saws accounting for the top 25% of all samples were selected as high-yield samples, and the bottom 20% of samples were selected as low-yield samples. The line chart of antler weight percentiles of different saw types is shown in Figure 8 .
[0272] Finally, 14 high-yield and 14 low-yield samples were subjected to genome-wide association analysis. Fig. 9 As shown, the SNP loci significantly associated with the important economic trait velvet weight were found, which shows that the use of the chip of the present invention for genotype detection can obtain relatively accurate genome-wide association analysis results. The SNP heritability was estimated using GCTA software, h2 = V (G) / Vp = 0.684342. It was proved that almost 70% of the variation of the phenotype (velvet weight) was attributed to genetics, which illustrates the importance of genomic selection breeding. The present invention can provide more possibilities for genomic selection breeding.
[0273] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be regarded as the scope of protection of the present invention.
