The bantengs domesticated in Kalasin showed 100% identity with the Indonesian bantengs and were more closely clustered with the gaur, Bos gaurus and Bos frontalis instead of a clade of Thai and Cambodian bantengs. Thus, the Kalasin banteng represent a pure strain of B. javanicus, Indonesian banteng.","PeriodicalId":89652,"journal":{"name":"Advances in genomics and genetics","volume":"17 1","pages":"71-75"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77574505","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}

The results indicating the shatter resistance is caused by two genes with duplicate dominant epistasis and duplicate recessive epistasis respectively. But chi square value of the cross shatter resistance x shattering (C plus 1 x KUAOX 25) could not fit the 9:7 model suggesting that genetic control by two more genes in this cross. The shatter resistance was highly heritable with narrow sense heritability at 0.74, 0.73 and 0.68 respectively.

Various characteristics that promote its potential include high and rapid biomass production rate, ability to accumulate high amount of lipid up to 80% of its cell mass, low cultivation cost and no competing for arable land for crop plants. Selection of high performance strains is the important key for the efficient biodiesel production with competitive production cost. However, strains isolated from nature so far only possess one or a few of the required characteristics. Therefore, they are insufficient for the performance demands for the biodiesel production. To obtain microalgal strains that are comprised of the required key characteristics, genetic manipulation is the most plausible approach to reach this goal. In this review, key characteristics of microalgae that are required for efficient biodiesel production are discussed for their possibility to be manipulated by either mutagenesis or gene transformation. Forward and reverse genetics in microalgae system in functional genomic era are described regarding the benefits obtaining from genome sequences that will contribute to gene function analysis and algal strain improvement. Furthermore, methods for genetic transformation are described for pros and cons of each method. Finally, the bottlenecks in many aspects of microalgae strain improvement are underlined as future challenges.","PeriodicalId":89652,"journal":{"name":"Advances in genomics and genetics","volume":"18 1","pages":"130-148"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-12-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88777721","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}

Four samples were from the broodstocks of Krabi, Trang, Nakhon Si Thammarat and Rayong Coastal Fisheries Research and Development Center, and one sample from the Krabi progeny population. On the 12 microsateliite loci screened, LcaM27F (AF404089) was found to be the most polymorphic locus with 13 variant alleles, while only the locus LcaM06 (AF404075) was found to be monomorphic. Genetic variabilities including per locus and population averages of number of averaged alleles (Na), effective number of alleles (Ae), allelic richness (R), observed heterozygosity (Ho) and expected heterozygosity (He) were respectively as Na = 4.0000 – 4.9167, Ae = 2.5567 – 3.0947, R = 3.4510 – 3.8841, Ho = 0.5627 – 0.6278 and He = 0.5391 – 0.6092. Deviations from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium ( P HWE >0.05) were found in some populations when the analyses were done over all loci. However, the amounts of genetic variation observed in the 5 populations were in the same level, and were lower than the level of wild and hatchery populations in Thailand reported by previous studies. The relative analyses of genetic structure and differences between populations showed that the 5 populations were genetically in the same group, with genetic differences between the populations within this group. Results from the analyses in each pair of populations together with the populations descriptive information made understanding in details of the populations and their genetic composition changes. Due to genetic diversity level in the 5 hatchery populations of Asian seabass resulting from this study lower than the wild level, a recommendation is that broodstock populations of Asian seabass should be founded with higher level of genetic diversity to obtain the good quality and high potential broodstock for Thai aquaculture.","PeriodicalId":89652,"journal":{"name":"Advances in genomics and genetics","volume":"96 1","pages":"166-182"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-12-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81536859","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}
