“…Globally, B. gaurus is currently classified as vulnerable by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List. There are an estimated 13,000 to 30,000 wild gaurs globally, with the population of mature individuals estimated to be between 5200 and 18,000 (Nguyen et al, 2007).…”

ABSTRACT. The Malayan gaur (Bos gaurus hubbacki) is one of the three subspecies of gaurs that can be found in Malaysia. We examined the phylogenetic relationships of this subspecies with other species of the genus Bos (B. javanicus, B. indicus, B. taurus, and B. grunniens). The sequence of a key gene, cytochrome b, was compared among 20 Bos species and the bongo antelope, used as an outgroup. Phylogenetic reconstruction was employed using neighbor joining and maximum parsimony in PAUP and Bayesian inference in MrBayes 3.1. All tree topologies indicated that the Malayan gaur is in its own monophyletic clade, distinct from other species of the genus Bos. We also found significant branching differences in the tree topologies between wild and domestic cattle.

“…In many studies, the strategy that involves fewer samples and a larger number of molecular marker loci has been used in animals including insects (eg. Georgiadis et al 1990, Nguyen et al 2007. In this study, 79-98 RAPD loci were analyzed for each of the three silkworms; although the sample size was not large, the results obtained are reliable as they were reproducible (Georgiadis et al 1990).…”

-The genetic diversity and genetic structure of three Chinese silkworm species Bombyx mori L., Antheraea pernyi Guérin-Meneville and Samia cynthia ricini Donovan were comparatively assessed based on RAPD markers. At the species level, A. pernyi and B. mori showed high levels of genetic diversity, whereas S. cynthia ricini showed low level of genetic diversity. However, at the strain level, A. pernyi had relatively highest genetic diversity and B. mori had lowest genetic diversity. Analysis of molecular variance (AMOVA) suggested that 60% and 72% of genetic variation resided within strains in A. pernyi and S. cynthia ricini, respectively, whereas only 16% of genetic variation occurred within strains in B. mori. In UPGMA dendrogram, individuals of A. pernyi and B. mori formed the strain-specifi c genetic clades, whereas those of S. cynthia ricini were distributed in a mixed way. The implications of these results for the conservation and utilization in breeding programs of three silkworm species are discussed.

“…Liao et al defined it as specific-allele 120 bp (63.2%) in mithun from Yunnan Province (Liao et al, 2008;Zhang et al, 2008); however, there were distinct discrepancies between this report and that from Tian et al (2011), who used silver staining. Allele 121 bp was absent in European cattle breeds (MacHugh et al, 1997), Brazilian Gir (Bicalho et al, 2006), Vietnamese cattle and wild gaur (Nguyen et al, 2007), Indian Kangayam cattle (Karthickeyan et al, 2009), Colombia Brahman cattle (Novoa and Usaquén, 2010), Uruguayan Creole cattle (Armstrong et al, 2013), Mongolian and Russian yak (Xuebin et al, 2005), Swiss yak (Nguyen et al, 2005), and Chinese yak (Liao et al, 2008;Zhang et al, 2008). No detailed data were shown for other bovid species in the previous studies on the BM2113 locus (Kantanen et al, 2000;Ritz et al, 2000;Kim et al, 2002;Zhang et al, 2007aZhang et al, ,b, 2011Mao et al, 2008;Wang et al, 2008;Rivière-Dobigny et al, 2009;Li and Kantanen, 2010;Azam et al, 2012).…”

ABSTRACT. The BM2113 locus was amplified in Yunnan mithun (Bos frontalis) from the southwest mountains of China. It showed a high degree of polymorphism with a total of 12 alleles. The 121-bp polymorphic allele of the BM2113 locus that accounted for 37.1% of homozygotes was the predominant allele with a frequency of 58.57%, identified as mithunspecific for Bos species in Yunnan mithun. The polymorphism information content value was high with a mean of 0.6170, the expected and observed heterozygosity was moderate with values of 0.6427 and 0.6000, respectively, and the BM2113 locus was under Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (P = 0.2897) in the Yunnan mithun population. This study elucidated the genetic diversity, multi-origin, specific alleles, and characterization of mithun.
