The aim of this study was to determine genetic diversity of Madura cattle using Polymerase Chain Reaction – Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphisms (PCR-RFLP) analysis of the cytochrome b (cytb) gene. Samples used for the experiments were blood of 43 cattle that consist of 15 cattle obtained from Madura Island, 23 cattle from Sapudi Island, and 5 Limousin-Madura (Limura) cattle. A fragment of 464 base pair of cytb gene was amplifi ed by forward primer L14735 and reverse primer H15149. The PCR product was digested with TaqIand HinfI restriction enzymes to identify genetic patterns. Data of PCR-RFLP showed two haplotypes, that were A and B, in cattle obtained from both Madura Island and Sapudi Island. The frequencies of haplotype A and B of cattle from Sapudi Island were 69.57% and 30.47%, respectively. More diverse frequencies were observed in cattle obtained from Madura Island, where haplotype A and B were 86.67% and 13.33%, respectively. In this experiment, Limura cattle had only haplotype A. As a conclusion, PCR-RFLP of the cytb gene had been able to determine a genetic diversity of Madura cattle. Key words: Genetic diversity, Madura cattle, haplotype.

Introduction - Le gène TP53 a fait l’objet de très nombreux travaux. Sa nature polymorphe et son rôle central dans la régulation du cycle cellulaire ont mis en évidence son potentiel de gène candidat dans la susceptibilité et la survenue de différents cancers. Bien que plusieurs polymorphismes du gène TP53 aient été étudiés comme facteurs de risque pour différents cancers, le plus largement étudié est le polymorphisme Arg72Pro (rs1042522), à l’origine d’une substitution d’une Arginie (Arg) en Proline (Pro) ou inversement, connu pour ses différentes fonctions biologiques.Notre objectif est d’explorer la participation du polymorphisme (SNP) Arg72Pro du gène TP53, dans l’expressivité du cancer colorectal (CCR) et du carcinome basocellulaire (CBC) dans une population de l’Ouest Algérien.Matériels et Méthodes - Le déséquilibre de transmission allélique de ce SNP a été réalisé sur une population constituée de 116 individus atteints de CCR, 50 sujets atteints de CBC et enfin une population contrôle constituée de 121 individus sains,par la technique de Biologie Moléculaire PCR/RFLP (Polymerase Chain Reaction/Restriction Fragment LengthPolymorphism).Résultats - L’association du marqueur Arg72Pro avec le CBC a montré une augmentation significative de l’allèle Pro chez les cas par rapport aux contrôles (54% vs 46%, OR=8,85 [4,98-16,03], p<10-7). Cet allèle semble conférer un risque important dedévelopper le CBC. Par ailleurs, les résultats n’ont montré aucune différence significative entre les sujets atteints de CCR et les contrôles, ce qui pourrait exclure son implication dans la survenue du CCR dans notre population (p>0.05).Conclusion - Le polymorphisme Arg72Pro du gène TP53 peut être considéré comme marqueur de risque pour le CBC mais pas pour le CCR.

Restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis in the broad sense is the analysis of differences in restriction fragment pattern produced by defined target segments within or between cell compartments, cell types, etc., in a single individual or in different individuals. Thus both molecular hybridization and DNA amplification by two-primer extension using the polymerase chain reaction can define target segments for RFLP analysis. The two techniques are outlined with special consideration of characteristics important for genetic analysis. The mode of inheritance of restriction fragment patterns as a prerequisite for their use as genetic markers in inheritance studies is explained, leading to criticism of common usage. The importance of internal restriction sites for the determination of allelic variation is stressed. It is shown that, if target segments are under the control of a single nuclear diploid restriction fragment locus, then complete reconstruction of all parental target segments requires controlled crosses between individuals of like restriction fragment pattern.Key words: genetic analysis, inheritance, restriction fragment length polymorphism, controlled cross, polymerase chain reaction.

Informações sobre peso à desmama de um rebanho Nelore foram utilizadas após ajuste para idade padrão de 205 dias, sexo da cria, idade da mãe, touro e mês de desmama, para separar as reprodutrizes em dois grupos, cujos filhos diferiam nesse peso. As médias ajustadas pelo método dos quadrados mínimos foram para os grupos pesado (P) e leve (L) de 163,21± 2,18kg e 134,44± 2,18kg, respectivamente, com 41 animais em cada grupo. Essas reprodutrizes foram submetidas à coleta de sangue para estudo de polimorfismos do gene da somatotropina bovina, pela técnica de PCR-RFLP (polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism). A amplificação de uma região entre o éxon III e V do gene da somatotropina permitiu analisar dois sítios de restrição. Para o sítio do éxon V, todos os animais foram identificados como monomórficos (Leu-Leu). Quanto ao sítio do íntron 3, foi possível identificar os seguintes genótipos 21 (+/-) e 60 (-/-), com as freqüências de 0,13 e 0,87 para os alelos (+) e (-), respectivamente. O peso dos filhos dos animais com o genótipo +/- foi de 152,42± 4,41kg e os -/- 147,60± 2,61kg. Os grupos P e L não diferiram entre si quanto às freqüências alélicas apresentadas. O genótipo das reprodutrizes não afetou o peso à desmama de suas crias, existindo portanto outros efeitos genéticos e não genéticos de maior magnitude.

Nuclear rDNA from 120 isolates of 34 Fusarium spp. and Microdochium nivale was compared by restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis after polymerase chain reaction amplification. The RFLPs allowed differentiation between species or groups of species. The presence or absence of each of 75 DNA bands was also used to compile a similarity matrix for cluster analysis to show estimated phylogenetic relationships. There was mostly little diversity between isolates of the same species. However, there were at least two distinct genetic types among isolates that conformed morphologically to each of the species F. avenaceum, F. sambucinum, F. flocciferum, and F. proliferatum. Most relationships were consistent with current understanding of Fusarium taxonomy. The division into taxonomic sections based on morphological characteristics was generally not supported.Key words: Fusarium, rDNA, phylogeny.

Abstract Polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) analysis has been applied to the identification of meats from quail (Coturnix coturnix), pheasant (Phasianus colchicus), red-legged partridge (Alectoris rufa), guinea fowl (Numida meleagris), capercaillie (Tetrao urogallus), Eurasian woodcock (Scolopax rusticola), woodpigeon (Columba palumbus), and song thrush (Turdus philomelos). PCR amplification was performed using a set of primers flanking a conserved region of approximately 720 base pairs (bp) from the mitochondrial 12S rRNA gene. Restriction site analysis based on sequence data from this DNA fragment permitted the selection of Alul and BfaI endonucleases for species identification. The restriction profiles obtained when amplicons were digested with the chosen enzymes allowed the unequivocal identification of all game bird species analyzed. However, the use of the PCR-RFLP technique described is limited to raw meat authentication. It is not suitable for cooked products because thermal treatment strongly accelerates DNA degradation leading to difficulties in amplifying the 720 bp fragment.
