Experimental Materials

The tricolor book was collected from the wild and established in the laboratory.

Experimental procedure

1. Preparation of total DNA of tricolor book

(1) Place 50 stacks in a 1.5 mL centrifuge tube, and thoroughly grind the test insects in a liquid nitrogen atmosphere with a pestle and add 200 μL of DNA extraction lysate.

(2) Add 2.5 μL of proteinase K solution (20 mg/mL), and bath at 50 ° C for 2 h (or overnight).

(3) Shake well (about 20 min) with an equal volume of balanced phenol (Tris-HC1 saturated phenol, pH 7.8) and store at 20 ° C for 5-10 min.

(4) Centrifuge at 4 ° C for 10 min, and transfer the viscous aqueous phase to a clean centrifuge tube.

(5) Take an equal volume of phenol: (1:1), phenol:: isoamyl alcohol (25:24:1) and extract each time, and centrifuge (9000 r/min 10 min) to take the supernatant.

(6) A 0.2 volume volume of sodium acetate solution (10 mol/L) and a double volume of absolute ethanol were added, and the DNA was sufficiently precipitated by standing at -20 ° C for 2 hours.

(7) Centrifugation (12000 r/min 10 min), the supernatant was discarded, and the pellet was washed twice with 70% ethanol (4 ° C).

(8) After the pellet was air-dried (as much as possible to remove ethanol), the DNA was resuspended in TE buffer (pH 8.0), and gently shaken at 37 ° C to facilitate DNA resuspension to fully dissolve the DNA.

(9) Add Rnase to a final concentration of 1 μg/mL, and incubate at 37 ° C for 1 hr.

(10) Extract according to (4)~(9), precipitate, resuspend the DNA, and store in 4 μL of double-digested water or TE at 4 °C.

(11) 4 μL of DNA was mixed with 2 μl of 6x loading buffer, and spotted onto a 1.4% agarose gel and electrophoresed at 2.5-5 v/cm.

(12) EB staining at 0.5 μg/mL for 15-30 min, photographed under UV light.

DNA concentration prepared with nucleic acid concentration SmartSpec ^TM 3000 analyzer, first requires repeated washing and then measuring the water absorbance after 50-fold diluted DNA was detected with sterile water 100μL / times cuvette. Requires OD = 1.7 or so.

wsp-R, 5'-AAAAAT TAAACG CTA CTC CAG CTT CTG CAC

Replenish the reaction system to 20 μL with sterile water

The amplification conditions were: 94 ° C for 2 min pre-denaturation, 94 ° C l0 sec, 65 ° C 30 sec, 68 ° C lmin, 10 cycles; 94 ° C l0 sec, 65 ° C 30 sec, 68 ° C lmin. 25 cycles, each cycle extending at 68 ° C for 20 sec.

After the completion of the amplification, 5 μL of the PCR product was detected by 1.5% agarose gel electrophoresis (voltage 5 v/cm, electrophoresis buffer was 1 X TAE), and the results were observed under a Bio-Rad gel imaging system.

3. Determination and analysis of sequences

The Wolbachia wsp gene sequence was obtained by direct sequencing of the Long PCR product from Shanghai. DNA sequence searches and homology comparisons were made using the BLAST tool (NCBI website). The phylogenetic tree is reconstructed by the Maximum Likelihood Method (ML) in the program, and the bootstrap test confidence of the nodes in the phylogenetic tree is estimated by 1000 repeated calculations. The phylogenetic analysis of the fragment of the Wsp gene of Wolbachia in the obtained trichrome scorpion was performed, and the fragments of the Wsp gene of Wolbachia in other hosts were obtained by GenBank.
