水牛染色体的限制酶显带

本文用限制酶HaeIII、AluI和胰酶显代技术处理了水牛染色体,并且用CMA₃/DA/DAPI三重染色,在荧光显微镜下观察了水牛染色体的荧光染色情况。结果表明：HaeIII处理水牛染色体18小时产生G样带带纹,处理20小时产生C样带带纹。AluI处理水牛染色体20小时也能产生G样带带纹。CMA3使染色体的着丝粒区发出明亮荧光,DA/DAPI则不能说明着丝粒区的结构异染色质相对富含GC碱基。     

自身基因组原位杂交揭示植物基因组重复DNA沿染色体的分布

重复DNA沿染色体的分布是认识植物基因组的组织和进化的要素之一。本研究采用一种改良的基因组原位杂交程序,对基因组大小和重复DNA数量不同的6种植物进行了自身基因组原位杂交(self-genomic in situ hybridization,self-GISH)。在所有供试物种的染色体都观察到荧光标记探针DNA的不均匀分布。杂交信号图型在物种间有明显的差异,并与基因组的大小相关。小基因组拟南芥的染色体几乎只有近着丝粒区和核仁组织区被标记。基因组相对较小的水稻、高粱、甘蓝的杂交信号分散分布在染色体的全长,但在近着丝粒区或近端区以及某些异染色质臂的分布明显占优势。大基因组的玉米和大麦的所有染色体都被密集地标记,并在染色体全长显示出强标记区与弱标记或不标记区的交替排列。此外,甘蓝染色体的所有近着丝粒区和核仁组织区、大麦染色体的所有近着丝粒区和某些臂中间区还显示了增强的信号带。大麦增强的信号带带型与其N-带带型一致。水稻自身基因组原位杂交图型与水稻Cot-1DNA在水稻染色体上的荧光原位杂交图型基本一致。研究结果表明,自身基因组原位杂交信号实际上反映了基因组重复DNA序列对染色体的杂交,因而自身基因组原位杂交技术是显示植物基因组中重复DNA聚集区在染色体上的分布以及与重复DNA相关联的染色质分化的有效方法。

Chromosome banding in the genusPinus

The chromosomes (2n=24) ofPinus densiflora Sieb. et Zucc. andP. thunbergii Parl. collected from several localities were analyzed on their fluorescent banding patterns by sequential staining with the base specifically binding fluorochromes, CMA and DAPI. In both species, the CMA-bands were localized at the proximal and/or interstitial regions of most of the chromosomes. The CMA-banding pattern was constant among the cells in a plant and was specific to respective species with a few variations. After the CMA and DAPI stainings each chromosome was identified individually. The fluorescent banding patterns of the two species were somewhat similar, but were diferent with respect to in some characters.Pinus thunbergii had two pairs of metacentric chromosomes without CMA-band and two pairs of metacentric chromosomes with an additional thin CMA-band at the interstitial region. The 10th and 11th pairs of chromosomes of both species, which showed similarity in interstitial CMA and DAPI banding and chromosome shape, had the proximal CMA-bands inP. densiflora and DAPI-band inP. thunbergii. The interspecific F₁ hybrid between the two species could easily be identified by the fluorescent banding method.     

Chromosome banding in the genusPinus

Somatic chromosomes (2n=24) ofPinus luchuensis Mayr at metaphase were observed by fluorescent banding methods with chromomycin A₃ (CMA) and DAPI. CMA-bands appeared at the interstitial and/or proximal regions of nearly all chromosomes. DAPI-bands appeared at the interstitial and/or centromeric regions of nearly all chromosomes, and pairs of DAPI-dots appeared at the centromeric regions. Each homologous pair of chromosomes in the chromosome complement was identified by the CMA and DAPI fluorescent banding patterns. The interstitial CMA-bands were mostly localized at the secondary constrictions of the Feulgen-stained chromosomes. The fluorescent banding pattern ofP. luchuensis was very similar to that ofP. thunbergii, but was different from that ofP. densiflora.     

Cytogenetic characterization of Rhamdia quelen (Siluriformes, Heptapteridae) from the Bodoquena Plateau, Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil

We made a cytogenetic study of the fish Rhamdia quelen collected from the Bodoquena Plateau, an isolated national park region in Mato Grosso do Sul State, Brazil. The diploid number was 2n = 58, with 36 metacentric + 16 submetacentric + 6 subtelocentric chromosomes. We found one to three B chromosomes, which were metacentric and submetacentric and of medium size, showing both intra- and interindividual variation. The nucleolus organizer region (NOR) was located in the terminal region of the short arm of submetacentric pair 20. Staining with CMA3 fluorochrome revealed the NOR location, while there was no evidence of fluorescent staining with DAPI. C banding revealed heterochromatin mainly in the terminal regions of the chromosome arms, including the NOR pair. In addition, metacentric pair 2 showed three heterochromatic blocks in the terminal portions and in the pericentromeric region. The B chromosomes appeared euchromatic. The CB + CMA3 staining combination demonstrated only one chromosome pair with fluorescence, probably the NOR-bearing one, while CB + DAPI gave various fluorescent signals, including metacentric pair 2, indicating that these heterochromatic regions are AT-rich in this population of R. quelen. The R. quelen population in this isolated region of Brazil is chromosomally distinct from that of other populations that have been studied.     

Cytogenetics of Manihot esculenta Crantz (cassava) and eight related species

Thirty-nine cultivars of cassava and eight related wild species of Manihot were analyzed in this work for number, morphology and size of chromosomes, prophase condensation pattern and the structure of the interphase nucleus. In four accessions, the chromosome size was measured and in some others, the number of secondary constrictions, meiotic behavior, C-band pattern, CMA/DAPI bands, nucleoli number and the location of 5S and 18S-5.8S-28S rDNA sites were also observed. All investigated accessions showed a similar karyotype with 2n = 36, small metacentric to submetacentric chromosomes. Two pairs of terminal secondary constrictions were observed in the chromosome complement of each accession except Manihot sp. 1, which presented two proximal secondary constrictions. The prophase chromosome condensation pattern was proximal and the interphase nuclei structure was areticulate to semi-reticulate. The meiosis, investigated in seven cultivars and four wild species, was regular, displaying 18 bivalents. C-banding revealed heterochromatin in 9 or 10 chromosomes. The analysis with fluorochromes frequently showed four chromosome pairs with a single CMA+ terminal or subterminal band and a few other chromosomes with DAPI+ unstable bands. Six 45S rDNA sites were revealed by FISH, which seemed to colocalize with six CMA+ bands. Only one chromosome pair presented a 5S rDNA site. The maximum nucleoli number observed per nucleus was also six. These data suggest that all Manihot species present a very similar chromosome complement.     

纳特竖蟾(无尾目:滑背蟾科) 的细胞遗传、与相关属物种的核型相似性并兼论其分类地位

本文报道纳特竖蟾(Eupemphix nattereri Steindachner,1863)巴西3个产地标本的核型,均为2n=22,由1对端部和10对中或亚中部着丝点染色体组成.仅一对NORs位于No.11染色体对长臂端部,而其位置有别于常见的具有标志性意义的近着丝点位置.该NORs的位置为rDNA为探针的荧光原位杂交(FISH)所确认.各染色体对中,着丝点C-带明显,插入或端带偶见.某些标本的No.8同源染色体对间C-带的大小随异染色质化的程度不同而变化.居于较小的实验标本量,这种在3个产地的雌或雄性标本之一中观察到的C-带异型现象可能为种下细胞地理学变异,亦或为细胞学意义的性染体分化.3产地之一的标本核型的No.11着丝点C-带异染色质化的程度较高.CMA3染色检测到部分GC-rich区域,DAPI染色未显示任何AT-rich区.成功获得BrdU复制带,并将其与滑背蟾类动物(leiuperid)中近缘属及物种进行对比分析.比较结果表明,纳特竖蟾的核型与斑符泡蟾种组(Physalaemus signifer group)难以相互区别,而与肿肋蟾属(Pleurodema Tschudi,1838)极为相似.核型数据支持形态学上将纳特竖蟾、二光肿肋蟾[Pleurodema diplolister (Peters,1870)]和短头肿肋蟾[P.brachyops(Cope,1869)]划为同一分支的观点[动物学报 53(2):285-293,2007].     

Cytogenetic characterization of the Zebra Mussel Dreissena polymorpha (Pallas) from Miedwie Lake, Poland

Cytogenetic characterization of D. polymorpha was carried out using banding techniques such as C-banding, fluorochrome CMA3 and silver nitrate treatment. The diploid chromosome number of both investigated D. polymorpha forms (typical and albinotic) was the same 2n = 32 (NF = 56). The karyotype consisted of 5 pairs of metacentric, 7 pairs of submetacentric and four pairs of subtelo-acrocentric chromosomes. Ag-NORs were located in the telomeric position on the largest subtelo-acrocentric chromosome pair. C banding patterns indicate many sites of constitutive heterochromatin mainly located in the telomeric regions and interstitially in some chromosomes. CMA3-sites were observed in almost all chromosomes; apart from the Ag-NORs sites, they were located terminally on the chromosome arms and interstitially on three chromosome pairs. Sixteen chromosomes could be counted at the diakinesis stage of meiosis. No differences in banding chromosome patterns were found neither between both analyzed forms of D. polymorpha nor between males and females.

Karyotype and chromosomal characteristics of Ag–NOR sites and 5S rDNA in European smelt, Osmerus eperlanus

Karyotype and cytogenetic characteristics of European smelt Osmerus eperlanus were investigated using different staining techniques (sequential Ag-, CMA3 and DAPI banding) and PRINS to detect 5S rDNA and telomeric sites. The diploid chromosome number was invariably 2n = 56 and karyotype composed of 5 pairs of metacentrics, 9 pairs of subtelocentrics and 14 pairs of subtelo- to acrocentrics. The DAPI-positive heterochromatic regions were found in centromeric positions on bi-armed chromosomes and few acrocentrics. Additionally, some interstitial DAPI-positive bands were identified on three pairs of submetacentric chromosomes. The nucleolar organizer regions (NORs) were detected in the short (p) arms of the largest metacentric pair of chromosomes No. 1. Sequential banding (Giemsa-, AgNO₃ and CMA₃ stainings) revealed NOR sites corresponding to achromatic regions but not associated with CMA₃-positive blocks of heterochromatin located on either side of NORs. Individuals from the analyzed population had this conspicuous pair of chromosomes always in heterozygous combination. A complex inversion system was hypothesized to be involved in the origin of the observed variation but analysis with telomeric PRINS and PNA-FISH did not reveal any Interstitial Telomeric Sites (ITS). Hybridization signals were confined exclusively to terminal chromosomal regions. The 5S ribosomal sites as revealed by PRINS were found to be invariably located in the short (p) arms of four pairs of subtelocentric chromosomes. Cytotaxonomic comparisons of the present results with the voluminous available cytogenetic data-set from salmoniform and esociformes fishes appear to support the recent view, based on robust molecular-based phylogeny, that salmoniform and osmeriform fishes are not as closely related as previously assumed.
