To compare reproductive indices and stress resistance of Drosophila at outbreeding and inbreeding. Methods. Drosophila melanogaster congenic strains with incomplete development of the radial wing vein – radius incompletus – were used: the laboratory one and the strain, in which the mutation was placed into the genetic background of wild type strain, which originates from the natural population from radiation contaminated territory. Before the experiment strains have passed 65 generations of inbreeding. Viability (number of individuals, pupa stage mortality), dominant lethal mutations frequency and life span of imago at starvation were analysed. Results. After inbreeding, there was a decrease in the frequency of dominant lethal mutations and an increase in viability of the strain, which originates from the natural population, and a decrease of mortality at the pupal stage in both strains. Decreased life span of imago at starvation has been shown only for the inbred strain, which originates from the natural population. Conclusions. Inbreeding for 65 generations has no significant negative effect on reproductive indices; reduction of stress resistance during inbreeding has been shown only for the strain, which originates from the radiation contaminated territory. \u0000Keywords: Drosophila, viability, dominant lethal mutations, life span of imago at starvation, inbreeding.","PeriodicalId":12181,"journal":{"name":"Faktori eksperimental'noi evolucii organizmiv","volume":"3 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88056436","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite numerous scientific studies of possible causes of miscarriage, their etiology remains unclear in approximately 50% of cases.

Methods. Group I included 35 women with sporadic miscarriage (SM), group II consisted of 57 women with recurrent miscarriage (RM) and 55 women of control group. Genetic testing was performed by PCR-RFLP. Results. In group I of women with SM the 455GA genotype of the FGB gene was more common and its presence in the genotype increases the risk of SM by 4 times and the presence of the 455A allele by 2 times. The Leiden mutation increases the risk of SM by 5 times. In II group of women with RM, the frequency of the 455 AA genotype of the FGB gene was more prevalent and the risk of RM was increased 2.5 times. It is shown that the risk of RM increases 4 times in the presence of the Leiden mutation. The 4G allele of the PAI-1 5G/4G polymorphism leads to a 2-fold increase in the risk of RM, and the presence of the 677TT genotype of the MTHFR gene increases the risk of RM by 3 times. Conclusions.
