Study of genetic relationships and polymorphism in camel populations
2011
Mustafa, S.H.I.
Three Egyptian camel breeds were used in the present study (Sudani, Falahi and Maghrabi). These breeds were identified depending on biochemical and molecular genetic fingerprinting of each breed by using protein polymorphism and Random Amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) for mitochondrial DNA. Eight primers were amplified for the detection of genetic polymorphism in these breeds using mitochondrial DNA as template. The results of protein analysis indicated that the least polymorphic breed was Maghrabi (17.4%) followed by Sudani (40.9%) then the highest was Falahi (41.7%). However when mitochondrial DNA was analyzed, the highest polymorphic ratio was seen in Maghrabi (87.3%) while Falahi showed (84.3%) and Sudani breed showed (84.2%). The similarity index depending upon combination of protein and mtDNA results indicated that similarity between Sudani and Falahi was 0.53, Sudani and Maghrabi (0.45) and Falahi and Maghrabi (0.42). The dendrogram was constructed, to show the phylogenetic relationships among the three breeds.
