Abstract
HERNANDEZ H, Darwin et al. Polymorphism of BoLA-DRB3.2* gen in creole colombian breeds. Rev.MVZ Cordoba [online]. 2013, vol.18, suppl.1, pp.3665-3671. ISSN 0122-0268.
Objective. To characterize BoLA-DRB3.2*gen polymorphism in Colombian Creole breeds. Materials and methods. Using 360 DNA samples from eight Creole bovine breeds (Blanco Orejinegro, Casanareño, Costeño con Cuernos, Chino Santandereano, Caqueteño, Hartón del Valle, Romosinuano and San Martinero), two synthetic Colombian breeds (Lucerna and Velásquez) and two introduced breeds (Brahmán and Holstein), polymorphism of BoLA-DRB3.2* was evaluated using molecular techniques (PCR-RFLP). Allele average number (AAN), expected (He) and observed (Ho) allele frequencies, heterozygosity, Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HW), genetic structure and FST and FIS values were estimated. Results. AAN was 14.6 ± 3.8, Caqueteño breed displayed the highest AAN value (25) and Chino Santandereano the lowest (10). 41 alleles of BoLA-DRB3.2* were detected. The most frequent were *28, *37, *24, *23, *20, *27, *8, *16 and *39 (0.17, 0.11, 0.10, 0.09, 0.09, 0.07, 0.07 and 0.06 respectively). High genetic diversity was found (He=0.878) with the highest value for Caqueteño (0.96) and lowest for San Martinero (0.81). All breeds were in HW, and highly significant values of genetic differentiation (FST=0.044) and inbreeding coefficient (FIS=0.249) were found. Conclusions. The Colombian Creole breeds have a high BoLA-DRB3.2*gen polymorphism represented by the high AAN and genetic diversity values.
