Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of aquatic genetic breeding technology, specifically involving the application of SNP markers related to tumor necrosis factor TNF-3 and antibacterial disease resistance in oysters. Background Technology

[0002] The Pacific oyster (Magallana gigas), also known as the giant oyster, is an important marine aquaculture species worldwide. In recent years, due to factors such as germplasm degradation, deteriorating aquaculture environments, and pathogen outbreaks, oyster diseases have become increasingly serious. In 2019, a large-scale oyster mortality event due to red shell disease occurred at a large-scale aquaculture farm in Dalian, Liaoning Province, causing significant economic losses and severely impacting the green and healthy development of the Pacific oyster aquaculture industry. Through pathogen isolation, identification, and reinfection experiments, a pathogenic bacterium strain—Haloxymonas—was obtained. The resistant oyster population of this invention was developed based on challenge with this pathogenic Haloxymonas strain.

[0003] Because Pacific oysters lack adaptive immunity and are typically farmed in open waters, effective defense against pathogens in these areas cannot be achieved through medication. Therefore, breeding disease-resistant superior varieties is imperative. Marker-assisted selection (MAS) is a breeding method based on molecular markers for genotypic selection, particularly suitable for selecting complex quantitative traits such as disease resistance and quality traits. A prerequisite for MAS breeding is obtaining genetic markers that co-segregate or are closely linked to the target gene. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have rapidly become a hot topic in MAS research due to their wide distribution, large number, and ease of large-scale detection. Currently, the number of SNP molecular markers associated with Pacific oyster resistance to halophilic bacteria is very limited, hindering the development of disease-resistant superior varieties. Therefore, it is urgent to develop SNP molecular markers related to halophilic bacteria resistance.

[0004] Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) possesses a typical TNF homologous domain, comprising both TNF-α and TNF-β forms. TNF-β is an important mediator in inflammatory and immune responses. It belongs to the TNF superfamily of ligands and transmits signals through two receptors, TNFR1 and TNFR2. TNF-β is produced by activated T cells and B cells. Multiple studies have found that TNF-β plays a crucial role in various immune defense processes in invertebrates, especially shellfish, including cell activation, survival, proliferation, necrosis, apoptosis, and inflammatory responses. Therefore, in disease-resistant breeding research and practice in aquatic animals, tumor necrosis factor shows promise as a candidate gene for improving susceptibility to pathogens. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide the application of tumor necrosis factor TNF-3 in oysters as a SNP marker associated with antibacterial disease.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted in this invention is: the application of SNP markers related to tumor necrosis factor TNF-3 and antibacterial disease resistance in Pacific oysters in the breeding of Pacific oyster varieties resistant to bacterial diseases.

[0007] The SNP marker is located in the TNF domain region of the TNF-3 gene in the oyster tumor necrosis factor, and its sequence is shown in SEQ ID No. 1.

The mutation types are +17103G / A, +17111A / G, +17132T / A, +17145C / T, +17169A / G, +17175A / G, and +17337C / T, respectively.

Another object of the invention relates to a method for identifying resistant individuals of Pacific oysters to bacterial diseases by detecting tumor necrosis factor-TNF-3 and SNP markers associated with antibacterial disease in the oyster, determining the genotype of the oyster, and then identifying resistant individuals based on the genotype.

[0019] Furthermore, genomic DNA was extracted from the oysters to be tested and used as a template for PCR amplification to obtain fragments containing the target SNP sites.

Detailed Implementation

[0033] The present invention will be further illustrated below with reference to the embodiments, but the embodiments do not limit the present invention in any way.

[0034] Example 1

[0035] The gene marker of tumor necrosis factor-3 (TNF-3), which is associated with antibacterial disease resistance in Pacific oysters, was obtained through the following steps:

[0036] a) Cloning of the TNF domain sequence in the coding region of the tumor necrosis factor TNF-3 gene, which is associated with antibacterial disease resistance in the Pacific oyster.

[0037] Following the methods described in Molecular Cloning, genomic DNA was extracted from the adductor muscle of the Pacific oyster as a template for amplification. Primers MgTNF-3-F and MgTNF-3-R were designed based on the known TNF domain sequence of the coding region of the tumor necrosis factor-3 gene, which is associated with disease resistance. PCR amplification was performed according to the following procedure: denaturation at 94℃ for 5 min; followed by 35 cycles of constant amplification (denaturation at 94℃ for 30 s, annealing at 54℃ for 30 s, extension at 72℃ for 30 s); and finally, incubation at 72℃ for 10 min. The PCR amplification products were sequenced to obtain their nucleotide sequences (see [link to relevant documentation]). Figure 1 The cloned tumor necrosis factor TNF-3 coding region TNF domain sequence is 440bp in length.

[0038] MgTNF-3-F: 5'-ATCAGCAACATGAAATACCAG-3',

[0039] MgTNF-3-R: 5'-AAAAGTGACGGTTTGATGAAT-3'.

[0040] b) Molecular marker screening for tumor necrosis factor-TNF-3 in Pacific oyster

[0041] Genomic DNA was extracted from 35 disease-resistant individuals and 35 normal individuals and used as templates for gene amplification for gene marker screening. Using primers MgTNF-3-F and MgTNF-3-R, the TNF domain gene encoding the tumor necrosis factor-3 coding region was amplified by PCR in individuals from the disease-resistant and normal groups, respectively. The TNF domain sequence product obtained from the PCR amplification was purified and sequenced.

[0042] Statistical analysis of the frequency of different genotypes in the resistant bacterial disease group and the general population (see Table 1) and subsequent Chi-square test analysis using SPSS 11.5 software revealed that individuals with the genotypes +17103GG, +17111AA, +17132AT, +17145CT, +17169AA, +17175GG, and +17337TT were significantly more frequent in the resistant bacterial disease group than in the general population.

[0043] Therefore, +17103G, +17111A, +17132T, +17145T, +17169A, +17175G, and +17337T were identified as SNP markers associated with resistance to bacterial diseases. +17103GG, +17111AA, +17132AT, +17145CT, +17169AA, +17175GG, and +17337TT were identified as genotypes associated with resistance to bacterial diseases.

[0045]

[0046] Example 2: Marker-Assisted Breeding Method for Antibacterial Disease Resistance in Crassula ovata

[0047] 25 mg of mantle membrane of oysters was cut using a non-destructive sampling method, and DNA was extracted and used as a template. PCR amplification was performed using specific primers MgTNF-3-F and MgTNF-3-R according to the following procedure: denaturation at 94℃ for 5 min; followed by 35 cycles of constant amplification: denaturation at 94℃ for 30 s, annealing at 54℃ for 30 s, extension at 72℃ for 30 s; and finally incubation at 72℃ for 10 min.

[0048] MgTNF-3-F: 5'-ATCAGCAACATGAAATACCAG-3',

[0049] MgTNF-3-R: 5'-AAAAGTGACGGTTTGATGAAT-3'.

[0050] Subsequently, the genotypes of different individuals were detected using direct sequencing. Individuals with genotypes of +17103GG, +17111AA, +17132AT, +17145CT, +17169AA, +17175GG, and +17337TT at base positions 17103, 17111, 17132, 17145CT, +17169AA, +17175GG, and +17337TT at base positions 17103, 17111, 17132, 17145, 17169, 17175GG, and 17337TT were selected as bacterial disease resistant individuals. They were then bred using conventional methods, while simultaneously subjected to bacterial stress treatment, and offspring were cultivated to develop new bacterial disease resistant varieties.
