Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of molecular biology, and relates to a SNP marker primer pair related to a pig tolerance mycoplasma pneumonia trait and application thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Globally, pig mycoplasma pneumonia has caused huge economic losses to the pig industry, and mycoplasma pneumonia seriously affects the production indexes such as pig feed intake and daily weight gain. The lungs are easily invaded by environmental pathogens, leading to lung diseases, usually accompanied by lung lesions, and even causing the death of pigs. The tolerance mycoplasma pneumonia trait is a complex trait, and has low heritability and many influencing factors. Therefore, it is difficult to directly select the pig population tolerance mycoplasma pneumonia trait by traditional methods. The traditional method is low in efficiency and slow in genetic improvement progress. In recent years, with the development of molecular genetics and genomics, researchers have begun to use the association between single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers and pig traits to solve this problem. The SNP marker is a common genomic genetic marker, which has the advantages of high polymorphism and wide distribution in the genome, and therefore becomes an important tool for studying pig genetic traits.

[0003] Based on this background, the present application provides a SNP marker primer pair related to the tolerance mycoplasma pneumonia trait as a complex trait, which has low heritability and many influencing factors. The trait can be quickly and accurately evaluated by genotyping technology to assess the pig's tolerance to mycoplasma pneumonia. This technology not only reduces the cost of production and improves the tolerance of pigs to mycoplasma pneumonia, but also provides an important molecular genetic basis for pig breeding and improvement.

[0028] Example 1

[0029] 1 Data source

[0030] The data used is derived from the slaughter data records of Kunshan Meishan Pig Breeding Co., Ltd. After slaughter, the proportion of lung lesion area is calculated, and the seven lung lobes of the pig are scored as phenotypes: the lesion area proportion of each lung lobe is 0%, 1-25%, 26-50%, 51-75%, 76-100%, respectively, and the scores are 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, respectively. The total score of the seven lung lobes is 28.

[0034] ① First, add 68 mL and 200 mL of anhydrous ethanol to buffer GD and rinse PW, respectively, and mix thoroughly.

[0035] ② Collect about 100 mg of ear tissue sample in a 2 mL EP tube, cut it into small pieces, add 200 μL of buffer GA, and shake until it is completely suspended.

[0036] ③ Add 20 μL of proteinase K solution, mix well, and place in a 56°C water bath for overnight digestion until the tissue sample is dissolved. Briefly centrifuge to remove water droplets on the inner wall of the tube cap.

[0037] ④ Add 200 μL of buffer GB, mix well by inverting, and place in a 70°C metal bath for 10 min. The solution should be clear, and briefly centrifuge to remove water droplets on the inner wall of the tube cap.

[0038] ⑤ Add 200 μL of anhydrous ethanol, mix well by shaking for 15 sec. At this time, a flocculent precipitate may appear. Briefly centrifuge to remove water droplets on the inner wall of the tube cap.

[0039] ⑥ Add the solution and flocculent precipitate obtained in the previous step to an adsorption column CB3. Place the adsorption column in a collection tube, then centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 30 sec, discard the waste liquid, and place the adsorption column CB3 back into the collection tube.

[0040] ⑦ Add 500 μL of buffer GD to the adsorption column CB3, centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 30 sec, discard the waste liquid, and place the adsorption column CB3 into the collection tube

[0041] ⑧ Add 600 μL of rinse PW to the adsorption column CB3, centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 30 sec, discard the waste liquid, and place the adsorption column CB3 into the collection tube.

[0042] ⑨ Repeat step ⑧.

[0043] 10. Put the adsorption column CB3 back into the collection tube, centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 2 min, and discard the waste liquid. Put the adsorption column CB3 at room temperature for several minutes to completely dry the residual rinse solution in the adsorption material.

[0044] Put the adsorption column CB3 into a clean centrifuge tube, and add 100 μL elution buffer TE to the middle of the adsorption membrane by dripping. Place it at room temperature for 2-5 min, centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 2 min, collect the solution into the centrifuge tube, and add the centrifuged solution to the adsorption column CB3 again. Place it at room temperature for 2 min, centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 2 min, and collect the solution into the centrifuge tube.

[0045] Use the Nanodrop-2000 spectrophotometer to detect the mass and concentration of the DNA. Dilute the DNA concentration to 50 ng / μL, and store it at -20℃ for standby use.

[0046] 3. PCR amplification and sequencing of the target fragment

[0047] Use the pig genome DNA as the template for PCR amplification. The reaction system includes 1 μL of DNA template, 1 μL of each primer shown in SEQ ID NO: 2 and SEQ ID NO: 3, and 22 μL of PCR mix. The amplification program is as follows:

[0048]

[0049] Perform agarose gel electrophoresis on the amplification product. The product fragment size is about 495 bp, and the electrophoresis result is shown in Figure 1 . Sequence the remaining amplification product, use DNAman software to verify the accuracy of the sequence, and use Chromas software to determine the genotype of the rs1110963643 site.

[0050] 4. Statistical analysis

[0051] Use the editor of SAS 9.4 software to run the code for genotype and phenotype association analysis. The code is as follows:

[0052]

[0053] 5. Results

[0054] Table 1 shows the results of the influence of different genotypes of the rs1110963643 site on the ability of Pime pigs to tolerate mycoplasma pneumonia. The results show that the genotype of the rs1110963643 site is significantly associated with the total score of the lung lesion area ratio (P < 0.001). Among them, the total score of the lung lesion area ratio of the TT type individual is significantly lower than that of the CC type individual (P < 0.001), indicating that the tolerance of the TT type individual to mycoplasma pneumonia is significantly greater than that of the CC type individual (P < 0.001); the total score of the lung lesion area ratio is significantly different between the TT type and the TC type and the CC type (P < 0.05), and the tolerance of the TT type and the TC type and the CC type to mycoplasma pneumonia is also significantly different (P < 0.05). Therefore, in Pime pigs, selecting and breeding the TT type of the rs1110963643 site can help to increase the tolerance of the Pime pig population to mycoplasma, and thus improve the economic benefit and disease resistance of Pime pigs.
