چکیده

Eleven triand tetra-meric motif microsatellite loci were identified in a lake sturgeon genomic library and were tested against the six North American species of Acipenser (lake sturgeon, A. fulvescens; shortnose sturgeon, A. brevirostrum; white sturgeon, A. transmontanus; green sturgeon, A. medirostris; Atlantic sturgeon, A. oxyrhynchus oxyrhynchus; gulf sturgeon, A. o. desotoi) and the two species of Scaphirhynchus (pallid sturgeon, S. albus; shovelnose sturgeon, S. platorhynchus) using four to six individuals of each species. Eight loci were amplified equally well in all eight species, and the remaining three loci were amplified in two, four, and seven species, respectively. Of the eight loci that worked in all species, one was monomorphic in all species, while the other seven were polymorphic in three to eight species. Single repeat differences in these triand tetra-meric repeat motifs can be readily scored on 4% Metaphor agarose gels stained with ethidium bromide. In addition, dosage for those loci exhibiting four gene doses can also be readily scored with this technique. These loci provide a much needed group of genetic markers, detectable with non-invasive sampling (blood, barbel, or fin), that should work well in threatened and endangered species of sturgeon worldwide. Résumé : Onze loci de microsatellites présentant un motif triet tétramérique ont été observés dans une banque génomique d’esturgeon jaune et ont été testés par rapport à six espèces d’Acipenser d’Amérique du Nord (esturgeon jaune, A. fulvescens; esturgeon à museau court, A. brevirostrum; esturgeon blanc, A. transmontanus; esturgeon vert, A. medirostris; esturgeon noir, A. oxyrhynchus oxyrhynchus; esturgeon du golf, A. o. desotoi) et les deux espèces de Scaphirhynchus (esturgeon pâle, S. albus; esturgeon scaphirhynque, S. platorhynchus) en utilisant 4-6 individus de chaque espèce. Huit loci ont été bien amplifiés de manière égale, chez les huit espèces, et les trois loci restants ont été amplifiés chez deux, trois et sept espèces respectivement. Des huit loci présents chez toutes les espèces, un était monomorphique chez toutes les espèces, tandis que les sept autres étaient polymorphiques chez trois des huit espèces. Les différences de répétition unique dans ces motifs répétitifs tri-et tétramériques peuvent être facilement observées dans des gels d’agarose Métaphor à 4 % colorés au bromure d’éthidium. De plus, cette technique permet d’établir rapidement le dosage pour ces loci présentant quatre doses géniques. Ces loci fournissent un groupe de marqueurs génétiques dont on avait grand besoin, qui sont détectables par échantillonnage non invasif (sang, barbillon ou nageoire), qui devraient donner un excellent rendement chez les espèces esturgeons menacées et en danger d’extinction dans le monde.

Development of disomic single-locus DNA microsatellite markers for Persian sturgeon (Acipenser persicus) from the Caspian Sea

Understanding the scale at which wild stocks of Persian sturgeon (Acipenser persicus) are genetically discrete is necessary for effective management of this commercially important species. Disomic DNA microsatellite markers are among the best tools for determining stock structure in fishes. As all sturgeon species have a polyploid ancestry of all sturgeons, most gene loci exhibit more than two ...
