1. Breeds and their DNA
2. What does the DNA tell us?
3. What does DNA not tell us?
4. Two theses for the Discussion
Breeds and their DNA
Different phenotypes « variation in DNA:
adaptive variation
But we do not always know where!
Somewhere in genome
3.000.000.000 bp, 25.000 genes
Genetic diversity studies via neutral variation
- microsatellites,
polymorphic -CACACACACA - - CACA- loci
» forensic DNA profiling
» most genetic diversity studies
- SNPs, single nucleotide polymorphisms
ACGATGGCATAGGAAAAATA
ACGATGGCATGGGAAAAATA
- mitochondrial DNA: maternal history
- Y-chromosomal DNA: paternal history
Breeds and their DNA
Species
DNA variants of a gene
Breeds and their DNA
Species
DNA variants of a gene:
variation within a species <
differences between species
DNA variants are shared by breeds
Breeds
Mutations much older than breeds
A breed carries ~80% of total diversity
Breeds and their DNA
Species
DNA variants are specific
for the species
DNA variants are shared by breeds
Breeds
Mutations much older than breeds
A breed carries ~80% of total diversity
Differences in allele frequencies
by genetic drift
Breed-specific variants are rare
(where is the uniqueness?)
Breeds and their DNA
new wisdom in human genetics
DNA variants are shared by breeds
Races
Mutations much older than breeds
Races carry ~90% of total diversity
Differences in allele frequencies
by genetic drift
Breed-specific variants are rare.
“concept of race - - social prejudice”
Breeds and their DNA
Current consensus in conservation genetics
(FAO MoDAD report 1994, EU projects)
Neutral variation is a substitute of adaptive
variation for assessing the conservation value
DNA variants are shared by breeds
Breeds
Mutations much older than breeds

Cattle breeds

Highest DNA diversity in South-East Europe
Geographic distribution of 3 types of cattle
Fewer DNA

☺ Molecular classification follows geography
☺ Historic information
Conservation values?
+ Diversity in southeast
+ Some breeds:
separate history
- Several (near) duplicates
Sheep breeds
Mitochondrial DNA
» Southwest Asian origin
Data 2005: 31 microsatellites, 1748 sheep, 57 breeds
» SW Asian/SE European/SW-European/NW-central clusters
» West-Europe: weak geographic differentiation
» Clear loss of diversity from southeast to northwest
Sheep breeds

Sheep breeds
on the origin of wool
Primitive hair sheep were later
replaced by wool sheep, but
when and where?
Columella (4-70): during Roman era still many hair sheep
Plinius the Elder (25-79), Naturalis Historia 8, 190:
The most praised wool is that of Apulia, which in Italy is named
the Greek sheep wool, but in other countries is named Italian - - The wool of Apulia is of a short staple, and specially in request for
cloaks and mantles, and nothing else. About Tarentum and Canusium,
the richest of this kind are found
Exactly where SNPs place the origin of sheep!
Tarentine sheep exported to Syria, Black Sea, Spain, Britain
Sheep breeds
on the origin of wool
Wool trading was a vital component of the
Roman economy
Hypothesis: demand of high-quality wool
drove export and expansion of Southern Italian
wool sheep. These became the ancestors of
most sheep around the world.

How differ breeds in their DNA
J.A. Lenstra
Themadag SZH/ WUR, December 3. 2010
1. Breeds and their DNA
2. What does the DNA tell us?
cattle
sheep
horse
3. What does DNA not tell us?
4. Two theses for the Discussion
What does DNA tell us?
☺ About history of livestock
☺ About high diversity » valuable for conservation
primitive breeds near domestication site
☺ About a separate history » valuable uniqueness
Italian Chianina cattle, Scottish Soay sheep, etc.
About a recent origin » conservation less urgent
many synthetic or upgraded breeds
Genetic distances based on neutral variation just indicate
genetic drift by inbreeding
many breeds! Instant diversity by genetic isolation
☺ New consensus in conservation genetics
Neutral variation is NOT a substitute of adaptive variation
Go for the adaptive variation! Genomic sequencing!

1. Breeds and their DNA
2. What does the DNA tell us?
Mainly the history!
3. What does DNA NOT tell us?
4. Two theses for the Discussion
What does DNA not tell us?
Other reasons for conservation
(Not yet) Valuable traits
☺
Morphology, productivity, local adaptation
A unique trait does not imply a large contribution to the diversity
DNA diversity and uniqueness are separate criteria for conservation
Cultural heritage, tradition, social function
Most breeds are only few 100 years old
Dutch belted
Most breeds are of mixed origin
e.g., Dutch Belted influenced by Galloway
Conserve the phenotype, but not ‘genetic purity’,
consider outcrossing, even crossbreeding
Guelder
Avoid inbreeding defects
Encourage molecular analysis of traditional trait:
mutation, geographic range, history

Genetisch zuiverheid zit tussen je oren

Neutrale DNA variatie zegt meer over
de geschiedenis dan over de waarde van een ras
Een ras kan uniek een waardevol zijn zonder veel
bij te dragen aan de genetische diversiteit
