Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of fish breeding, and in particular relates to a method for constructing all-male fish without gene editing based on KDM6BB gene knockdown technology. Background Art
[0002] The diversity of sex determination mechanisms has formed an important paradox in the developmental biology of lower vertebrates. Sex-controlled breeding can be achieved through artificial intervention in the sex development process, so that the offspring can produce a group with the desired sex characteristics. Sex control of animals is of great significance in improving production and quality, and enhancing resistance to stress and disease. Unlike the sex determination mechanism of mammals that relies on the chromosomal sex determination system (CSD), fish sex determination has a high degree of plasticity, and many exogenous factors, such as temperature and hormones, can affect fish sex determination. Among many aquaculture species, many animals show obvious sexual dimorphism in growth, that is, the growth performance of one sex is significantly better than that of the other sex. For example, male tilapia grows significantly faster than females. The breeding of single-sex groups will bring obvious economic benefits.
[0003] Inducing sex reversal by sex hormone interference is the most common method for producing monosex populations. For example, patent document CN110583539B discloses a method for efficiently producing high-reproduction rate YY-transformed female fish of Nile tilapia, and CN117016488A discloses an inducer, induction method and application for sex reversal of XY genetic male fish of largemouth bass to XY pseudo-female fish. Both methods induce sex reversal in fish through hormone regulation, thereby obtaining monosex breeding populations. However, many adverse effects are also produced in the process of applying the above methods, such as hormone pollution, fish body residues, hormone-related substances inducing unstable sex development of parent fish, and inability to produce on a large scale and continuously. Therefore, it is particularly urgent to develop sex-controlled breeding methods such as sex reversal and monosex population construction based on endogenous gene editing methods. CN113789352B discloses a method and application for achieving sex-controlled breeding of XX / XY sex-genetically determined fish, including: (1) obtaining cyp17a1 homozygous fish through gene editing; (2) screening XX genetic type cyp17a1 - / - Homozygous fish, which appear physiologically male, are recorded as pseudo-male fish; (3) The genotype cyp17a1 + / + XX wild-type female fish and cyp17a1 - / - XX pseudo-male fish were artificially induced to spawn and inseminated, and all the genotypes obtained were cyp17a1 + / -The method can achieve sex-controlled breeding of fish and the cultivation of single-sex groups. However, the single-sex groups obtained by this method are all gene-edited offspring, and cannot be promoted in breeding and applied in breeding. In view of this, it is necessary to design a knockdown of key sex-inducing genes to achieve sex reversal of fish and the construction of single-sex groups to solve the above problems. Summary of the invention
[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a method for constructing a non-gene-edited all-male fish based on the KDM6BB gene knockdown technology, using gene editing technology to obtain heterozygous fish edited by the histone demethylase KDM6BB, reducing the KDM6BB protein level, reducing the nuclear entry of KDM6BB, and hindering the expression of male development genes, thereby obtaining the genotype KDM6BB + / - XY pseudo-female fish; then the pseudo-female fish were mated with wild-type male fish to screen out the genotype kdm6bb + / + YY's supermale fish; then the supermale fish is hybridized with wild-type XX female fish to obtain all-male offspring without gene editing, realizing fish sex-controlled breeding and single-sex group farming.
