Abstract

In this study, we investigated the genetic characteristics and the effective population size of domestic dairy cattle using 42,201 SNPs for 923 heads of Holstein cattle. The estimate for the average linkage disequilibrium ($r^2$) among the adjacent SNPs by chromosome was 0.22, and it was highest (0.26) in chromosome 14 and lowest (0.17) in chromosome 27. When the physical distance among SNPs was less than 25Kb, the estimate for the average $r^2$ was $0.31{\pm}0.33$ and it was markedly decreased as the physical distance increased. When the physical distance among SNPs was larger than 25Mb, the estimate for the average $r^2$ was 0.04, and it decreased by 0.27 (87.1%) compared with case of physical distance of less than 25Kb. There was a trend that the effective population size in Holstein dairy cattle decreased over generations and the estimate for the effective population size in the first 5 generations (1~5th generation) was 110 heads.

본 연구는 홀스타인 젖소, 923두에 대한 단일염기다형성 (SNP) 42,201개를 이용하여 국내 젖소집단의 유전적 특성 및 유효집단크기를 조사하고자 실시하였다. 염색체별 인접 단일염기다형성간의 평균 연관불평형 ($r^2$)은 0.22로 추정되었으며, 14번 염색체 (0.26)에서 가장 높은 반면, 27번 염색체 (0.17)에서 가장 낮게 나타났다. SNP간의 물리적 거리가 25Kb 미만인 경우에서 $r^2$은 $0.31{\pm}0.33$으로 추정되었으며, SNP간 물리적 거리가 증가할수록 $r^2$은 현저히 감소하였다. SNP간 물리적 거리가 2.5Mb 이상에서의 $r^2$은 0.04로 25Kb 미만인 경우와 비교할 때 0.27 (87.1%) 감소하였다. 국내 홀스타인 젖소의 유효집단크기는 세대수와 비례하여 감소하는 경향을 나타내었으며, 1~5세대에서 110두로 추정되었다.
