Objective To analyze the genetic phenotypes of Nantong Han population and evaluate the application value of 17 Y-STR loci in Nantong population.Methods The peripheral blood samples were collected from 343 unrelated Nantong Han males and the genomic DNA were extracted by Chelex-100 method.Genotyping was performed using the AmpF(l)STR YfilerTM Kit.The results were compared with other 12 Han populations,including Anhui,Jiangsu,Jiangxi,Shandong,Shanghai,Zhejiang (1),Lanzhou,Nanyang,Luzhou,Mudanjiang,Shanxi and Zhejiang (2),and 9 minority populations (Mongol,Xibe,Tibetan in Lhasa,Tibetan in Qinghai,Kazak,Uighur,Manchu,Paiwan in Taiwan and Tujia).Results A total of 327 different haplotypes were found in 17 Y-STR loci in Nantong Han population.The haplotype diversity (HD) was 0.999 7.The R,value between Nantong Han and other Chinese populations ranged from-0.000 6 to 0.263 5.The multidimensional scaling results showed that Nantong Han population had no significant differences between most of the Han populations,but had significant differences between most of Chinese minority populations.Conclusion Seventeen Y-STR loci can be a powerful tool for forensic application because of its high polymorphism in Nantong Han population.

The entire S1 protein gene of five infectious bronchitis (IB) vaccine strains (JAAS, IBN, Jilin, J9, H120) used in China were compared with that of the IB field isolate CK/CH/LDL/97 I present in China. The nucleotide and deduced amino acid similarities between the five IB vaccine strains and the field strain, CK/CH/LDL/97 I, were not more than 76.4% and 78.7%, respectively. Phylogenetic analysis based on the S1 gene showed that the vaccine strains and the field strain belonged to different clusters and had larger evolutionary distances, indicating that they were of different genotypes. The five vaccine strains were used for protection test against challenge of the field isolate CK/CH/LDL/97 I. The chickens inoculated with five vaccine strains showed morbidity as high as 30%-100% after challenged with the CK/CH/ LDL/97 I strain. The organ samples at 5 days post challenge showed that the viral detection rates were 50%-90% and 10%-30% for trachea and kidney, respectively. The live attenuated vaccines only provided partial protection to the vaccinated chickens against heterologous IBV infection, CK/CH/LDL/97 I.
