The quantitative trait loci (QTL) associated with individual characteristics of grain and flour quality in wheat lines grown under contrasting environmental conditions were mapped. Overall, 22 QTL that manifested under contrasting environmental conditions with various significances were detected on 10 chromosomes. Grain hardness and vitreousness were associated with three loci on chromosomes 5D, 6A, and 3A, while the gluten content, with two loci on chromosomes 5B and 7A. Dough extensibility was associated with only one QTL localized in the region of Glu-A1 locus. One of the loci determining flour and dough strengths is located in the region of Gli-B1 and Glu-B3 loci and the rest, in various regions of chromosomes 1B, 5D, and 4B, where no particular genes associated with grain quality have been yet found. The detected QTL can be used in further experiments on genetic control of gluten formation and quality in wheat. 相似文献

Ninety-nine loci have been assigned to river buffalo chromosomes, 67 of which are coding genes and 32 of which are anonymous DNA segments (microsatellites). Sixty-seven assignments were based on cosegregation of cellular markers in somatic cell hybrids (synteny), whereas 39 were based on in situ hybridization of fixed metaphase chromosomes with labeled DNA probes. Seven loci were assigned by both methods. Of the 67 assignments in somatic cell hybrids, 38 were based on polymerase chain reaction (PCR), 11 on isozyme electrophoresis, 10 on restriction endonuclease digestion of DNA, 4 on immunofluorescence, and 4 on chromosomal identification. A genetic marker or syntenic group has been assigned to each arm of the five submetacentric buffalo chromosomes as well as to the 19 acrocentric autosomes, and the X and Y chromosomes. These same markers map to the 29 cattle autosomes and the X and Y chromosomes, and without exception, cattle markers map to the buffalo chromosome or chromosomal region predicted from chromosome banding similarity. 相似文献

Endogenous ecdysterone has been bonded to chromosomal loci by irradiation of Ch. tentans salivary glands. The hormone has been localized on the polytene chromosomes by indirect immunofluorescence microscopy. Hormone binding to chromosomes is stage-specific. Seven chromosomal loci could be identified which specifically bound hormone in larval salivary glands, and 21 chromosomal loci which specifically bound hormone in prepupal salivary glands. All puffs that have been described by Clever (1961) as being inducible by ecdysterone have been found to contain irreversibly bound ecdysterone in prepupal salivary gland chromosomes. A small number of puff sites in larval salivary gland chromosomes exhibited varying amounts of bound ecdysterone, (as judged by fluorescence intensity) most notably 117B and Balbiani rings 1 and 3 on chromosome IV. In addition to stage specific binding sites, there were many others showing equal binding of the hormone in both, larval and prepupal, stages of development. — Fluorescence intensities (reflecting the amount of bonded hormone) at puff sites along the tip section of the prepupal salivary gland chromosome arm IR have been computed indicating that differences between fluorescence intensities of different puffs can be expressed as multiples of a basic fluorescence intensity. Thus, the amount of fluorescence intensity (bonded hormone) in the various puffs may be quantized. — The data indicate that in Ch. tentans salivary glands ecdysterone acts, at the chromosomal level. The development of larvae into prepupae generates more puff sites and more hormone binding. This is discussed in the light of current models of hormone-receptor function. 相似文献

Summary Wheat gliadin proteins are coded by clusters of genes (complex loci) located on the short arms of chromosomes of homoeologous groups 1 and 6 in bread (6x) and durum (4x) wheats. The proteins expressed by the various complex loci have been designated gliadin blocks. In a survey of accessions from the Germplasm Institute (C.N.R., Bari, Italy) collection, several different accessions have been found that lack particular blocks of proteins (null alleles). In some bread wheat accessions, seeds do not express gliadins that are coded by chromosomes 1D and 6A in normal cultivars. Similarly, some durum wheat accessions lack -gliadin components coded for by genes on chromosomes 1A and 1B. The missing proteins do not result from the absence of whole chromosomes, but may be the consequence of partial deletion of these genes at a complex locus or result from their silencing. 相似文献

A modified Giemsa staining technique and the in situ hybridisation technique, have been used to investigate the localisation of highly repeated sequences in the karyotype of the locust Schistocerca gregaria. The centromeric regions are stained densely with Giemsa and further Giemsa-stained bands occur at the telomeric region of the short (S) chromosomes. RNA complementary to repetitious DNA hybridised to loci scattered along the whole length of the chromosomes, with concentrations of grains at the centromeric regions of all the chromosomes and also at the telomeric regions of the S chromosomes. 相似文献

Recent studies of genetically controlled enzyme variation lead to an estimation that at least 30 to 60% of the structural genes are polymorphic in natural populations of many vertebrate and invertebrate species. Some authors have argued that a substantial proportion of these polymorphisms cannot be maintained by natural selection because this would result in an unbearable genetic load. If many polymorphisms are maintained by heterotic natural selection, individuals with much greater than average proportion of homozygous loci should have very low fitness. We have measured in Drosophila melanogaster the fitness of flies homozygous for a complete chromosome relative to normal wild flies. A total of 37 chromosomes from a natural population have been tested using 92 experimental populations. The mean fitness of homozygous flies is 0.12 for second chromosomes, and 0.13 for third chromosomes. These estimates are compatible with the hypothesis that many (more than one thousand) loci are maintained by heterotic selection in natural populations of D. melanogaster. 相似文献

The steroid sulfatase locus on structurally abnormal inactive X chromosomes is expressed 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
In mammalian somatic cells, sex-chromosome dosage compensation is achieved by random inactivation of one of the two X chromosomes. The Xg blood group antigen (Xg) and steroid sulfatase (STS) loci on the distal end of the short arm of the X chromosome have been shown to escape this inactivation. However, it has been reported that on structurally abnormal inactive X chromosomes Xg and STS are inactivated. This discrepancy requires further consideration since whatever process accounts for the lack of inactivation of these loci on structurally normal, inactive X chromosomes might be anticipated to be operative on structurally abnormal, inactive X chromosomes. To investigate this issue, we examined the expression of STS activity in mouse-human somatic-cell hybrids retaining two different, deleted, inactive human X chromosomes. These studies provide evidence for lack of inactivation of STS on structurally abnormal, inactive X chromosomes. 相似文献

We have applied the restriction landmark genomic scanning (RLGS) method to the SMXA recombinant inbred (RI) mouse strain
set to reveal its detailed genetic profile. A total of 663 polymorphic RLGS spot loci were identified, 576 of which were assigned
to chromosomes. Strain distribution patterns (SDPs) at 55 microsatellite marker loci were also obtained. As a result, the
total number of loci with distinct SDPs on chromosomes increased to 400. These loci were dispersed on all chromosomes, except
for the Chromosome (Chr) Y, and effectively covered the genome with an average spacing of 4 cM. The SMXA RI strain set, hereby,
would be of value for genetic study.

Comparative mapping in grasses. Oat relationships 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8

The development of RFLP linkage maps in hexaploid and diploid oat allows us to study genetic relationships of these species at the DNA level. In this report, we present the extension of a previously developed diploid oat map (Avena atlantica x A. hirtula) and its molecular-genetic relationships with wheat, rice and maize. Examination of 92–99% of the length of the oat genome map with probes common to Triticeae species, rice or maize showed that 84, 79 and 71%, respectively, was conserved between these species and oat. Generally, the orders of loci among chromosomes homoeologous to oat chromosomes A and D were the most conserved and those of chromosomes homoeologous to oat chromosome G were the least conserved. Conservation was observed for blocks ranging from whole chromosomes 101 cM long to small segments 2.5 cM long containing two loci. Comparison of the homoeologous segments of Triticeae, rice and maize relative to oat indicated that certain regions have been maintained in all four species. The relative positions of major genes governing traits such as seed storage proteins and resistance to leaf rusts have been conserved between cultivated oat and Triticeae species. Also, the locations of three vernalization/or photo-period response genes identified in hexaploid oat correspond to the locations of similar genes in homoeologous chromosomes of wheat, rice or maize. The locations of the centromeres for six of the seven oat chromosomes were estimated based on the homoeologous segments between oat and Triticeae chromosomes. 相似文献

Chromosome regions and stress-related sequences involved in resistance to abiotic stress in Triticeae 总被引:17,自引:0,他引:17

Drought, low temperature and salinity are the most important abiotic stress factors limiting crop productivity. A genomic map of major loci and QTLs affecting stress tolerance in Triticeae identified the crucial role of the group 5 chromosomes, where the highest concentration of QTLs and major loci controlling plant's adaptation to the environment (heading date, frost and salt tolerance) has been found. In addition, a conserved region with a major role in drought tolerance has been localized to the group 7 chromosomes. Extensive molecular biological studies have led to the cloning of many stress-related genes and responsive elements. The expression of some stress-related genes was shown to be linked to stress-tolerant QTLs, suggesting that these genes may represent the molecular basis of stress tolerance. The development of suitable genetic tools will allow the role of stress-related sequences and their relationship with stress-tolerant loci to be established in the near future. 相似文献

A 3000-rad radiation hybrid panel was constructed for cattle and used to build outline RH maps for all 29 autosomes and the X and Y chromosomes. These outline maps contain about 1200 markers, most of which are anonymous microsatellite loci. Comparisons between the RH chromosome maps, other published RH maps, and linkage maps allow regions of chromosomes that are poorly mapped or that have sparse marker coverage to be identified. In some cases, mapping ambiguities can be resolved. The RH maps presented here are the starting point for mapping additional loci, in particular genes and ESTs that will allow detailed comparative maps between cattle and other species to be constructed. Radiation hybrid cell panels allow high-density genetic maps to be constructed, with the advantage over linkage mapping that markers do not need to be polymorphic. A large quantity of DNA has been prepared from the cells forming the RH panel reported here and is publicly available for mapping large numbers of loci. 相似文献

Numerous studies on Achyranthes japonica have been investigated on physiological and pharmacological interests, however, no information of molecular cytogenetic level has been introduced yet, which, in turn, it is very essential to construct the molecular database and polyploidy primarily for any further researches. In this study, full unit of 5S and partial unit of 45S rDNA including two ITS regions were analyzed with chromosomal loci of examined rRNA genes on mitotic chromosomes. From the sequence analysis of rDNA unit, only a few polymorphic sites revealed in both coding and non-coding regions of NTS, ITS 1 and 2 giving an idea that no inter-specific hybrids has been involved in A. japonica as highly conserved specie through the high evolutionary period. To identify the polyploidy of A. japonica which has been unclear due to the very small size and unspecific centromere, FISH analysis was carried out on mitotic chromosomes using analyzed 5S and pTa-71 for 45S rDNA. 2 loci of each 5S and 45S rDNA were confirmed on the short arm of different chromosomes which were assumed to be a pair of each rDNA by a very similar size. Thus, the analyzed sequence of rDNA with low polymorphic rates and the identified loci on a relative size chromosome suggest the polyploidy of A. japonica as highly conserved diploid specie. 相似文献

A 42-cM map of proximal mouse chromosome 9, including eight loci defined by restriction fragment length variants, has been generated. Linkage was established by haplotype analyses of 114 interspecific backcross mice and indicated the following gene order: (centromere) Pvs-5.3 cM-Icam-1/Ldlr-18.4 cM-Thy-1-1.8 cM-Ncam-0.9 cM-Hexa-7.9 cM-Gsta-7.9 cM-Trf. Three of these loci, Pvs, Icam-1, and Hexa, have not been mapped previously. Together with previous mapping studies the current results suggested that chromosomal segments of mouse chromosomes 7 and 9 and chromosomal segments of human chromosomes 11, 15, and 19 derive from a single putative primordial chromosome. The studies support the postulate that detailed analysis of chromosome organization will be useful in defining events in mammalian evolution. 相似文献

The organization and the mechanisms of condensation of mitotic chromosomes remain unsolved despite many decades of efforts. The lack of resolution, tight compaction, and the absence of function-specific chromatin labels have been the key technical obstacles. The correlation between DNA sequence composition and its contribution to the chromosome-scale structure has been suggested before; it is unclear though if all DNA sequences equally participate in intra- or inter-chromatin or DNA-protein interactions that lead to formation of mitotic chromosomes and if their mitotic positions are reproduced radially. Using high-resolution fluorescence microscopy of live or minimally perturbed, fixed chromosomes in Drosophila embryonic cultures or tissues expressing MSL3-GFP fusion protein, we studied positioning of specific MSL3-binding sites. Actively transcribed, dosage compensated Drosophila genes are distributed along the euchromatic arm of the male X chromosome. Several novel features of mitotic chromosomes have been observed. MSL3-GFP is always found at the periphery of mitotic chromosomes, suggesting that active, dosage compensated genes are also found at the periphery of mitotic chromosomes. Furthermore, radial distribution of chromatin loci on mitotic chromosomes was found to be correlated with their functional activity as judged by core histone modifications. Histone modifications specific to active chromatin were found peripheral with respect to silent chromatin. MSL3-GFP-labeled chromatin loci become peripheral starting in late prophase. In early prophase, dosage compensated chromatin regions traverse the entire width of chromosomes. These findings suggest large-scale internal rearrangements within chromosomes during the prophase condensation step, arguing against consecutive coiling models. Our results suggest that the organization of mitotic chromosomes is reproducible not only longitudinally, as demonstrated by chromosome-specific banding patterns, but also radially. Specific MSL3-binding sites, the majority of which have been demonstrated earlier to be dosage compensated DNA sequences, located on the X chromosomes, and actively transcribed in interphase, are positioned at the periphery of mitotic chromosomes. This potentially describes a connection between the DNA/protein content of chromatin loci and their contribution to mitotic chromosome structure. Live high-resolution observations of consecutive condensation states in MSL3-GFP expressing cells could provide additional details regarding the condensation mechanisms. 相似文献

The western European house mouse, Mus domesticus, includes many distinct Robertsonian (Rb) chromosomal races. Two competing hypotheses may explain the distribution of Rb translocations found in different populations: they may have arisen independently multiple times, or they may have arisen once and been spread through long-distance dispersal. We investigated the origin of the Rb 5.15 translocation using six microsatellite loci linked to the centromeres of chromosomes 5 and 15 in 84 individuals from three Rb populations and four neighboring standard-karyotype populations. Microsatellite variation on the 5.15 metacentric chromosomes was significantly reduced relative to the amount of variation found on acrocentric chromosomes 5 and 15, suggesting that linked microsatellite loci can track specific mutational events. Phylogenetic analyses resulted in trees which are consistent with multiple origins of the 5.15 metacentric chromosomes found in the three Rb populations. These results suggest that cytologically indistinguishable mutations have arisen independently in natural populations of house mice. 相似文献

We demonstrate a reliable method for mapping conventional loci and obtaining meiotic linkage data for the ciliated protozoan Tetrahymena thermophila. By coupling nullisomic deletion mapping with meiotic linkage mapping, loci known to be located on a particular chromosome or chromosome arm can be tested for recombination. This approach has been used to map three isozyme loci, EstA (Esterase A), EstB (Esterase B), and AcpA (Acid Phosphatase A), with respect to the ChxA locus (cycloheximide resistance) and 11 RAPDs (randomly amplified polymorphic DNAs). To assign isozyme loci to chromosomes, clones of inbred strains C3 or C2 were crossed to inbred strain B nullisomics. EstA, EstB and AcpA were mapped to chromosomes 1R, 3L and 3R, respectively. To test EstA and AcpA for linkage to known RAPD loci on their respective chromosomes, a panel of Round II (genomic exclusion) segregants from a B/C3 heterozygote was used. Using the MAPMAKER program, EstA was assigned to the ChxA linkage group on chromosome 1R, and a detailed map was constructed that includes 10 RAPDs. AcpA (on 3R), while unlinked to all the RAPDs assigned to chromosome 3 by nullisomic mapping, does show linkage to a RAPD not yet assignable to chromosomes by nullisomic mapping. 相似文献

An essential part in the development of informative linkage maps is to include genetic markers that have been anchored by physical mapping. Here a set of 18 porcine cosmid-derived genetic markers are reported that have been mapped by linkge analysis, and that also have been physically localized by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). Three different strategies were used to establish polymorphic markers from the cosmid clones. Firstly, dinucleotide microsatellite loci were derived by sequencing cosmid subclones containing (CA), repeats. Secondly, variable SINE 3′ poly(A) tracts (SINEVA) were identified by direct SINE-PCR amplification of cosmid clones. Thirdly, the cosmids were used in Southern blot hybridization to detect restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs). Compared with the most recent consensus compilation of the porcine gene map, the present assignment of markers to chromosomes Zp, 3, 4, 10, 12q, and 16 represents the first loci mapped to these chromosomes, for which linkage as well as in situ data are now available. 相似文献
