| contents | Identification of sex-specific markers using genome re-sequencing in the blunt snout bream (Megalobrama amblycephala). Fu, Yuye Luo, Lifei Wang, Shilong Yu, Yue Wang, Yao Gao, Zexia Animals Female Male Cyprinidae Genetic Markers Whole Genome Sequencing Genome The blunt snout bream (Megalobrama amblycephala) is an important economic freshwater fish in China with tender flesh and high nutritional value. With the cultivation of superior new varieties and the expansion of breeding scale, it becomes imperative to employ sex-control technology to cultivate monosexual populations of M. amblycephala, thereby preventing the deterioration of desirable traits. The development of specific markers capable of accurately identifying the sex of M. amblycephala would facilitate the determination of the genetic sex of the breeding population before gonad maturation, thereby expediting the processes of sex-controlled breeding of M. amblycephala. A whole-genome re-sequencing was performed for 116 females and 141 males M. amblycephala collected from nine populations. Seven candidate male-specific sequences were identified through comparative analysis of male and female genomes, which were further compared with the sequencing data of 257 individuals, and finally three male-specific sequences were generated. These three sequences were further validated by PCR amplification in 32 males and 32 females to confirm their potential as male-specific molecular markers for M. amblycephala. One of these markers showed potential applicability in M. pellegrini as well, enabling males to be identified using this specific molecular marker. The study provides a high-efficiency and cost-effective approach for the genetic sex identification in two species of Megalobrama. The developed markers in this study have great potential in facilitating sex-controlled breeding of M. amblycephala and M. pellegrini, while also contributing valuable insights into the underlying mechanisms of fish sex determination. |
