Comparing Copy Number Variations and SNPs02:26

Comparing Copy Number Variations and SNPs

19.1K
Sequencing of the human genome has opened up several best-kept secrets of the genome. Scientists have identified thousands of genome variations that exist within a population. These variations can be a single nucleotide or a larger chromosomal variation.
Copy number variations or CNVs are the structural variations that cover more than 1kb of DNA sequence. The single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), on the other hand, is a single nucleotide change or a point mutation that is found in more than 1%...

Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms-SNPs

19.6K
A single nucleotide polymorphism or SNP is a single nucleotide variation at a specific genomic position in a large population. It is the most prevalent type of sequence variation found in the human genome. Point mutations that occur in more than 1% of the population qualify as SNPs. These are present once every 1000 nucleotides on an average in the human genome. Replacement of a purine with another purine (A/G) or a pyrimidine with another pyrimidine (C/T) is known as a transition. In contrast,...

Genetic Variation01:25

Genetic Variation

1.5K
Genetic variation is the diversity in DNA sequences found among individuals of the same species. This diversity is crucial for a species' survival because it helps organisms adapt to environmental changes. Genetic variation begins with fertilization, where an egg and sperm cell merge. Each of these cells carries 23 chromosomes, up to 46 in the fertilized egg. Chromosomes are long DNA strands that contain genes, the basic units of heredity.
Genes exist in different versions called alleles,...

Trihybrid Crosses

Trihybrid Crosses
Some of Mendel’s crosses examined three pairs of contrasting characteristics. Such a cross is called a trihybrid cross. A trihybrid cross is a combination of three individual monohybrid crosses. For example, plant height (tall vs. short), seed shape (round vs. wrinkled), and seed color (yellow vs. green).
The F1 generation plants of a trihybrid cross are heterozygous for all three traits and produce eight gametes. Upon self-fertilization, these gametes have an equal...

Formation of Species01:31

Formation of Species

46.6K
Speciation describes the formation of one or more new species from one or sometimes multiple original species. The resulting species are discrete from the parent species, and barriers to reproduction will typically exist. There are two primary mechanisms, speciation with and without geographic isolation—allopatric and sympatric speciation, respectively.

Area of Science:

  • Plant genetics and genomics.
  • Crop science and breeding.

Background:

  • Sugarcane (Saccharum spp.) is a vital polyploid crop for sugar and biofuel production.
  • The Saccharum complex harbors significant genetic diversity crucial for breeding, but allelic variation is challenging to study.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To characterize natural allelic variations within the Saccharum complex.
  • To establish an effective method for discovering genetic variations in complex polyploid genomes.

Main Methods:

  • Target enrichment sequencing of 12 representative sugarcane germplasm accessions.
  • Development of a specialized pipeline for polyploid variant and genotype calling.
  • Utilized sorghum genome as a reference for probe design and sequence alignment.

Main Results:

  • Detected over 1.1 million SNPs, 150K InDels, and thousands of copy number and presence/absence variations.
  • Achieved nearly 90% SNP validation rate using multiple callers.
  • Identified nearly 1 million single dosage SNPs and inferred haplotype blocks, revealing divergence times up to 1.2 million years ago.

Conclusions:

  • Target enrichment sequencing is an effective strategy for cataloging natural allelic variation in complex polyploid genomes.
  • The identified variations provide valuable genetic resources for sugarcane breeding and trait discovery.
