Geographical clines in genetic polymorphisms are widely used as evidence of climatic selection and are expected to shift with climate change. We show that the classic latitudinal cline in the alcohol dehydrogenase polymorphism of Drosophila melanogaster has shifted over 20 years in eastern coastal Australia. Southern high-latitude populations now have the genetic constitution of more northerly populations, equivalent to a shift of 4 degrees in latitude. A similar shift was detected for a genetically independent inversion polymorphism, whereas two other linked polymorphisms exhibiting weaker clinal patterns have remained relatively stable. These genetic changes are likely to reflect increasingly warmer and drier conditions and may serve as sensitive biomarkers for climate change.  相似文献

Range shifts and adaptive responses to Quaternary climate change   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
Tree taxa shifted latitude or elevation range in response to changes in Quaternary climate. Because many modern trees display adaptive differentiation in relation to latitude or elevation, it is likely that ancient trees were also so differentiated, with environmental sensitivities of populations throughout the range evolving in conjunction with migrations. Rapid climate changes challenge this process by imposing stronger selection and by distancing populations from environments to which they are adapted. The unprecedented rates of climate changes anticipated to occur in the future, coupled with land use changes that impede gene flow, can be expected to disrupt the interplay of adaptation and migration, likely affecting productivity and threatening the persistence of many species.  相似文献

Cattle are central to the lives and diverse cultures of African people. It has played a crucial role in providing valuable protein for billions of households and sources of income and employment for producers and other actors in the livestock value chains. The long-term natural selection of African cattle typically signals signatures in the genome, contributes to high genetic differentiations across breeds. This has enabled them to develop unique adaptive traits to cope with inadequate feed supp...  相似文献

Using a regionally calibrated model, Sinervo et al. (Reports, 14 May 2010, p. 894) predicted potential climate change impacts on lizard populations and estimated that many extinctions are under way. We argue that this model is not sufficient for predicting global losses in lizard species in response to anthropogenic climate change.  相似文献

To date,most genetic progress for quantita-tive traits in livestock has been made by selec-tion on phenotype or on estimates of breedingvalues(BBV)derived from phenotype,withoutknowledge of the number of genes that affect thetrait or the effects of each gene.In this quantita-tive genetic approach to genetic improvement,the genetic architecture of traits of interest hasessentially been treated as a‘black box’.De-spite this,the substantial rates of genetic im-provement that have been and continue to be a-chie...  相似文献

Understanding the genetic bases and modes of adaptation to current climatic conditions is essential to accurately predict responses to future environmental change. We conducted a genome-wide scan to identify climate-adaptive genetic loci and pathways in the plant Arabidopsis thaliana. Amino acid-changing variants were significantly enriched among the loci strongly correlated with climate, suggesting that our scan effectively detects adaptive alleles. Moreover, from our results, we successfully predicted relative fitness among a set of geographically diverse A. thaliana accessions when grown together in a common environment. Our results provide a set of candidates for dissecting the molecular bases of climate adaptations, as well as insights about the prevalence of selective sweeps, which has implications for predicting the rate of adaptation.  相似文献

The male-sterile lines with Ms2 gene were highly evaluated in recurrent selection in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). Three populations C6 (population after six cycles of selection), C7 (population after seven cycles of selection), and C8 (population after eight cycles of selection) were constructed through recurrent selection with 12 parental materials (P). Acid polyacrymide gel electrophoresis (A-PAGE) analysis was used to identify gliadin patterns and evaluate the genetic diversity in 12 parents and three populations. A total of 63 bands were identified, of which 17 polymorphic bands and 7 unique bands were present in populations and seven polymorphic bands and four unique bands were present in parents. The number of polymorphic and unique bands decreased gradually from C6 to C8, especially for to- and y-gliadins. The genetic distances in C6, C7, and C8 were calculated. The distributions of genetic distance were different in three recurrent selection populations. From C6 to C8, the genetic distance was 0.2687, 0.2652 and 0.1987, respectively. Statistically significant differences were detected between C7 and C8 with the T value of 37.9718. The result of cluster analysis based on genetic similarity matrix of three populations fitted well to those of principle coordinates analysis (PCoA). Compared with 12 parents, almost all individuals of three populations are new genotypes. Most of the individuals from C6 and C7 could be divided into two groups, while most individuals of C8 were in one cluster. In conclusion, the results indicated that the genetic diversity was decreased severely according to the information revealed by A-PAGE, although some variations could be created in the recurrent selection. It was necessary to introduce diverse germplasm based on the genetic database of recurrent population to maintain and improve the breeding efficiency in the further program.  相似文献

Comparisons of recent with historical samples of chromosome inversion frequencies provide opportunities to determine whether genetic change is tracking climate change in natural populations. We determined the magnitude and direction of shifts over time (24 years between samples on average) in chromosome inversion frequencies and in ambient temperature for populations of the fly Drosophila subobscura on three continents. In 22 of 26 populations, climates warmed over the intervals, and genotypes characteristic of low latitudes (warm climates) increased in frequency in 21 of those 22 populations. Thus, genetic change in this fly is tracking climate warming and is doing so globally.  相似文献

Two pig populations were simulated with Monte Carlo method; each consisted of 5 boars and 50 sows per generation. Genetic connectedness between herds was established by randomly selecting 1 or 2 boars from one population to mate sows of the other population. Breeding pigs were selected within populations according to animal model BLUP. The benefits of genetic connectedness between herds were examined. The results showed that, the average coefficients of inbreeding decreased, while the cumulative selection responses of populations increased, and the higher response occurred randomly in the two populations at generation 5 with the increase of the genetic connectedness between herds. Selection response was affected by genetic connectedness and trait heritability, the lower heritability and higher connectedness, the better selection results. When the number of exchanged litters between populations per generation was 6 litters, the selection results reached a reflection point; if the number of exchanged litters between populations increased further from this point, neither the increase of the cumulative selection responses nor the decrease of coefficients of inbreeding was significant.  相似文献

Species range expansion reduces genetic variation at the margins of a species range and should thus compromise the adaptive potential of its marginal populations. Remarkably, this prediction has not previously been tested. Here, we show that populations of the plant Mercurialis annua, which expanded its range into Spain and Portugal from North Africa after the Pleistocene glaciation, respond to selection on a key life-history trait less well than populations from the species' historical refugium. Our results provide direct evidence of a decline in adaptive potential across the geographic range of a species after a shift in its distribution. Predicting evolutionary responses to environmental change will thus need to account for the genetic heterogeneity of species and the spatial dynamics of their geographic distributions.  相似文献

Two cycles of biparental mass selection (MS) and one cycle of half-sib-S3 family combining selection (HS-S3) for yield were carried out in 2 synthetic maize populations P4C0 and P5C0 synchronously. The genetic diversity of 8 maize populations, including both the basic populations and their developed populations, were evaluated by 30 SSR primers. On the 30 SSR loci, a total of 184 alleles had been detected in these populations. At each locus, the number of alleles varied from 2 to 14, with an average of 6.13. The number and ratio of polymorphic loci in both the basic populations were higher than those of their developed populations, respectively. There was nearly no difference after MS but decreased after HS-S3 in both the basic populations in the mean gene heterozygosity. The mean genetic distance changed slightly after MS but decreased in a bigger degree after HS-S3 in both the basic populations. Analyses on the distribution of genetic distances showed that the ranges of the genetic distance were wider after MS and most of the genetic distances in populations developed by HS-S3 were smaller than those in both the basic populations. The number of genotypes increased after MS but decreased after HS-S3 in both the basic populations. The genetic diversity of intra-population was much more than genetic diversity of inter-population in both the basic populations. All these indexes demonstrated that the genetic diversity of populations after MS was similar to their basic populations, and the genetic diversity was maintained during MS, whereas the genetic diversity of populations decreased after HS-S3. This result indicated that heterogeneity between some of the individuals in the developed populations increased after MS, whereas the populations become more homozygotic after HS-S3.  相似文献

As natural populations approach genetic equilibrium, the various genes in the population are capable of assuming intermediate distributions that might not be anticipated from either the rate of the process or the final distribution of the genes. Since it is possible that many populations have not reached genetic equilibrium, the distribution of genes in natural populations may be a reflection of the kinetic path by which the genes approach equilibrium. Attention to kinetic path provides an explanation for an apparent discrepancy in recent studies of selection in man.  相似文献

 【目的】研究控制双亲的混合选择法对墨白964群体在四川生态条件下经过5轮适应性改良的效果。【方法】采用性状表型分析和SSR分子标记技术。【结果】经过5轮混合选择后,开花期性状有显著的选择增益, 多数性状的表型变异系数随着选择世代的增加有所下降。40对SSR引物在各轮群体中扩增出418个等位位点,有88.5%的遗传多样性分布于群体内,有11.5%分布于群体间。群体内的遗传多样性大于群体间的遗传多样性,且群体内的遗传差异随着选择的增加呈下降趋势。基因杂合度、多态性位点数和多态性位点百分率都呈递减趋势。原始群体C0的基因型种类多,为418种,且频率分布较散,选择后的高代群体C4、C5的基因型种类少且频率分布较集中。【结论】选择群体的遗传变异逐渐减小,这可能是由于连续对开花期性状定向选择的结果,也可能还与群体的有效含量较小和选择强度大所引起的遗传漂变有关。  相似文献

【目的】分析海拔环境差异对水稻雌配子体基因型选择及其对后代表型遗传分化的影响,为研究植物表型对海拔环境的遗传响应及利用海拔差异进行雌配子体选择育种的方法提供理论参考。【方法】利用2个滇1型细胞质雄性不育系与耐寒粳稻地方老品种杂交,在4个具有明显海拔背景差异的试验点构建并种植了7个水稻F1雌配子体基因型选择群体及其28个F2遗传分离群体,通过估算这些世代群体的形态性状差异来检测不同海拔条件对雌配子体基因型频率变化和后代表型遗传分化的影响。【结果】对F1雌配子体基因型选择群体的形态性状分析发现,在4个不同海拔点都检测到8个性状发生了偏分离,说明海拔背景差异对F1雌配子体基因型具有选择作用,且在2 200和400 m两种海拔环境的影响都大于海拔1 860和1 250 m;产生于海拔1 860 m群体的形态性状多样性指数最大,据此随产生海拔的升高和降低,其多样性指数均减小;差异性比较显示产生于2 200 m高海拔的群体几乎与其他3个海拔产生的群体在所有性状上的差异都达显著水平。对种植于不同海拔环境的28个F2遗传分离群体的形态性状分析,结果显示海拔差异导致的雌配子体基因型选择影响其F2群体的表型遗传分化,且产生海拔差异越大,其后代表型分化就越明显。经2 200和400 m选择过的分离群体,在7个性状上检测出21处差异达显著水平;经1 860和1 250 m 选择过的分离群体,仅在3个性状上检测出6处差异达显著水平。总体变化趋势是,经高海拔2 200 m选择的群体,种植在不同海拔表现结实率高、整体生长势较差,而经低海拔400 m选择的群体的性状表现与高海拔的相反,经中海拔1 860和1 250 m选择过的群体表现多居于高、低海拔之间,但群体形态性状多样性指数较大。【结论】海拔环境差异对水稻F1雌配子体基因型具有选择作用,进而影响其后代的表型遗传分化,形成对不同海拔环境条件的生态适应性,这意味着利用海拔背景差异进行雌配子体选择育种的方法是可行的。  相似文献
