摘要

在亚热带和热带环境中,肉牛生产面临着热应激带来的巨大挑战,影响着动物福利和生产率。为了减轻这些影响,生产者们转而进行杂交,并开发出像布兰格斯(Brangus)这样的复合品种,它们结合了欧洲金牛的理想胴体和肉质特征以及印地安品种的耐热性。然而,由于测量相关性状的复杂性以及不同种群杂交产生的遗传错综复杂性,人们对这些复合种群耐热性的遗传基础还不甚了解。本研究旨在确定与耐热性相关的关键数量性状位点(QTL),采用的方法是将遗传标记与 Brangus 母牛等位基因来源品种(BOA)相结合。利用 250K 功能芯片对 2233 头 Brangus 母牛进行了基因分型,收集了它们的组织学汗腺面积 (SWA)、毛发长度 (HL) 和热应力斜率的数据,热应力斜率是衡量体温从低到高的温湿度指数 (TSS) 升高的指标。以佛罗里达大学安格斯-伯拉曼多品种项目中的安格斯牛和伯拉曼牛为参照群体,使用 LAMP-LD 软件测定了 BOA。我们进行了一项全基因组关联研究(GWAS),纳入了 BOA 的特异性效应,发现了几个具有 BOA 特异性效应的基因。值得注意的是,只有当等位基因来源于婆罗门时,CGGBP1基因才会对TSS产生显著影响。相反,当等位基因来源于安格斯时,PLK1 基因对 TSS 有显著影响。CGGBP1 和 PLK1 在热应激时都与热休克蛋白相互作用,这些发现揭示了控制体内温度的不同遗传机制。对于HL,在PRLR基因附近发现了明显的婆罗门特异性效应,该基因是众所周知的控制Criollo牛SLICK毛发表型的基因。在 SWA 方面,发现安格斯特异性地与 PDE4D 基因有显著关联。PDE4D 与调节汗腺生长和汗液分泌的 cAMP 通路相互作用。这些发现强调了复合牛热耐受性的遗传复杂性以及 BOA 在鉴定关键 QTL 中的关键作用。该研究提供了耐热性遗传机制的新见解,为旨在提高亚热带和热带环境中牛的耐热性的育种策略奠定了基础。

PSV-19 Uncovering breed-origin allele effects and their role in thermotolerance through genome-wide association study in Brangus cattle
In subtropical and tropical environments, beef cattle production faces significant challenges due to heat stress, affecting animal welfare and productivity. To mitigate these effects, producers have turned to crossbreeding and the development of composite breeds like Brangus, which combine the desirable carcass and meat quality traits of European taurine cattle with the thermotolerance of Indicine breeds. However, the genetic underpinnings of thermotolerance in these composite populations are not well understood, owing to the complex nature of measuring related traits and the genetic intricacies arising from crosses of distinct populations. This study aims to identify key quantitative trait loci (QTL) related to thermotolerance, employing an approach that integrates genetic markers alongside the marker’s breed of origin of alleles (BOA) in Brangus heifers. Data were collected on histological sweat gland area (SWA), hair length (HL), and thermal stress slope as a measure of the increase in body temperature from a low to a high temperature-humidity index (TSS), from 2,233 Brangus heifers genotyped with the 250K functional chip. BOA was determined using LAMP-LD software, using Angus and Brahman cattle from the University of Florida’s multibreed Angus-Brahman project as a reference population. We conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS) incorporating BOA-specific effects, revealing several genes with BOA-specific effects. Notably, the CGGBP1 gene exhibited a significant effect on TSS only when alleles originated from Brahman. Conversely, the PLK1 gene was significant for TSS when alleles originated from Angus. Both CGGBP1 and PLK1 interact with heat shock proteins during heat stress, these findings reveal different genetic mechanisms for controlling internal body temperature. For HL, a significant Brahman-specific effect was found near the PRLR gene, which is known as the gene controlling the SLICK hair phenotype in Criollo cattle. For SWA, an Angus-specific significant association was found with the PDE4D gene. PDE4D interacts with the cAMP pathway which regulates sweat gland growth and sweat production. These findings underline the genetic complexity of thermotolerance in composite cattle and the crucial role of BOA in identifying key QTL. The study offers novel insights into the genetic mechanisms of thermotolerance, providing a foundation for breeding strategies aimed at improving heat resilience in cattle in subtropical and tropical environments.

期刊介绍: The Journal of Animal Science (JAS) is the premier journal for animal science and serves as the leading source of new knowledge and perspective in this area. JAS publishes more than 500 fully reviewed research articles, invited reviews, technical notes, and letters to the editor each year. Articles published in JAS encompass a broad range of research topics in animal production and fundamental aspects of genetics, nutrition, physiology, and preparation and utilization of animal products. Articles typically report research with beef cattle, companion animals, goats, horses, pigs, and sheep; however, studies involving other farm animals, aquatic and wildlife species, and laboratory animal species that address fundamental questions related to livestock and companion animal biology will be considered for publication.
