Theoretical study of AlH(2+)n (n=1-7) dications

The structures and stability of 1–7 dications were calculated at the ab initio MP2/aug-cc-pVTZ level of theory. The dications AlH²⁺ 1 and 2 were characterized to be unstable thermodynamically. However, these and the stable dications, 3–7 have considerable kinetic barriers for deprotonation. Each of the structures 3–7 contains one or more two-electron three-center (2e–3c) bonds. Aluminum atoms of these dications carry most of the positive charges, as indicated by NBO charge calculations.Dedicated to Professor Dr. Paul von Ragué Schleyer on the occasion of his 75th birthday     

Reactions of e(-)(aq), CO(2)(*)(-), HO(*), O(2)(*)(-) and O(2)((1)delta(g)) with a dendro[60]fullerene and C(60)[C(COOH)(2)](n) (n = 2-6)

Using pulse radiolysis and laser flash photolysis, we have investigated the reactions of the deleterious species, e(-)(aq), HO&z.rad;, O(2)(*)(-) and O(2)((1)Delta(g)) with 10 water-soluble cyclopropyl-fused C(60) derivatives including a mono-adduct dendro[60]fullerene (d) and C(60) derivatives based on C(60)[C(COOH)(2)](n=2-6), some of which are known to be neuroprotective in vivo. The rate constants for reactions of e(-)(aq) and HO&z.rad; lie in the range 0.5-3.3 x 10(10) M(-1) s(-1). The d and bis-adduct monoanion radicals display sharp absorption peaks around 1000 nm (epsilon = 7 000-11 500 M(-1) cm(-1)); the anions of the tris-, tetra-, and penta-adduct derivatives have broader, weaker absorptions. The monohydroxylated radicals have their most intense absorption maxima around 390-440 nm (epsilon = 1000-3000 M(-1) cm(-1)). The anion and hydroxylated radical absorption spectra display a blue-shift as the number of addends increases. The radical anions react with oxygen (k approximately 10(7)-10(9) M(-1) s(-1)). The reaction of O(2)(*)(-) with the C(60) derivatives does not occur via an electron transfer. The rate constants for singlet oxygen reaction with the dendrofullerene and eee-derivative in D(2)O at pH 7.4 are k approximately 7 x 10(7) and approximately 2 x 10(7) M(-1) s(-1) respectively, in contrast to approximately 1.2 x 10(5) M(-1) s(-1) for the reaction with C(60) in C(6)D(6). The large acceleration of the rates for electron reduction and singlet oxygen reactions in water is due to a solvophobic process.     

Microsolvation effect and hydrogen-bonding pattern of taurine-water TA-(H2O)n (n = 1-3) complexes

The microsolvation of taurine (TA) with one, two or three water molecules was investigated by a density functional theory (DFT) approach. Quantum theory of atoms in molecules (QTAIM) analyses were employed to elucidate the hydrogen bond (H-bond) interaction characteristics in TA-(H₂O)_n (n = 1–3) complexes. The results showed that the intramolecular H-bond formed between the hydroxyl and the N atom of TA are retained in most TA-(H₂O)_n (n = 1–3) complexes, and are strengthened via cooperative effects among multiple H-bonds from n = 1–3. A trend of proton transformation exists from the hydroxyl to the N atom, which finally results in the cleavage of the origin intramolecular H-bond and the formation of a new intramolecular H-bond between the amino and the O atom of TA. Therefore, the most stable TA-(H₂O)₃ complex becomes a zwitterionic complex rather than a neutral type. A many-body interaction analysis showed that the major contributors to the binding energies for complexes are the two-body energies, while three-body energies and relaxation energies make significant contributions to the binding energies for some complexes, whereas the four-body energies are too small to be significant.     

Barley chromosome identification using genomic in situ hybridization in the genome of backcrossed progeny of barley-wheat amphiploids [H. geniculatum All. (2n = 28) x T. aestivum L. (2n = 42)] (2n = 70)

Genomic in situ hybridization (GISH) has been used to study characteristics of the formation of alloplasmic lines detected among self-pollinated backcrossed progeny (BC1F5-BC1F8) of barley--wheat amphiploids [Hordeum geniculatum All. (2n = 28) x Triticum aestivum L. (2n = 42)] (2n = 70). The chromosome material of the wild barley H. geniculatum has been shown to contribute to these lines. For example, fifth-generation plants (BC1F5) had genotypes (2n = 42w + 2g), (2n = 42w + 1g + 1tg), and (2n = 41w + 1g), where w is common wheat chromosomes, g is barley (H. geniculatum) chromosomes, and tg is the telocentric chromosome of wild barley. Beginning from the BC1F6 generation, alloplasmic telocentric addition lines (2n = 42 + 2tg) and (2n = 42 + 1tg) appear. This lines has been found cytogenetically unstable. The progeny of each of these cytological types include not only the (2n = 42 + 2tg) and (2n = 42 + 2tg) addition plants, but also plants with the monosomic (2n = 41 + 1tg) and the disomic (2n = 40 + 2tg) substitutions, as well as the (2n = 41 + 2tg) plants, which lack one wheat chromosome and have two telocentric barley chromosomes. It has been demonstrated that the selection for well-filled grains favors the segregation of telocentric addition lines (2n = 42 = 2tg) and (2n = = 42 + 1tg).     

Genomic diversity in aneudiploid (2n = 38) and diploid (2n = 40) Glycine tomentella revealed by cytogenetic and biochemical methods.

Of the 15 perennial species of the subgenus Glycine Willd., G. tomentella Hayata is unique in that it has four cytotypes (2n = 38, 40, 78, and 80) and a wide range of geographical distributions. The objective of this study was to uncover the genomic diversity among accessions of aneudiploid (2n = 38) and diploid (2n = 40) G. tomentella based on crossability rate, hybrid seed and seedling viability, meiotic chromosome pairing of F1 hybrids, and seed protein and protease inhibitor profiles. Aneudiploid and diploid G. tomentella accessions were divided into two (D1 and D2) and three [D3(A,B,C), D4, and D5] groups, respectively, based on previous isozyme studies. Crossability rate, intergenomic hybrid viability, degree of chromosome pairing, total seed protein profiles, and trypsin and chymotrypsin inhibitor banding patterns confirmed the isozyme grouping with minor disagreements. A consistent variation was not observed among the aneudiploid accessions in any method of analysis used in this study. Similarly, cytogenetic analysis and the total seed protein profiles did not show dissimilarity among the accessions from Papua New Guinea (PNG; the D3 group) and north of Mitchell River in Northern Queensland [N.Qld(n)]. However, trypsin and chymotrypsin inhibitor analysis revealed that the PNG accessions were distinctly different from N.Qld(n) accessions. The D4 and D5 group accessions were clearly distinguishable by both cytogenetic and biochemical methods. Thus, this study indicates the presence of four genomic groups among G. tomentella (2n = 38, 40) accessions, including the aneudiploids D1 and D2 in one group and diploids in three groups (D3, D4, and D5). These findings will be useful in further genome analysis and add to our present understanding of the biosystematics of the genus Glycine.     

Synthesis, morphology and cytogenetics of Raphanofortii (TTRR, 2n = 38): a new amphidiploid of hybrid Brassica tournefortii (TT, 2n = 20) ×Raphanus caudatus (RR, 2n=18)

Amphidiploid Raphanofortii was synthesized by colchicinization of the F₁ hybrid Brassica tournefortii (TT, 2n = 20)×Raphanus caudatus (RR, 2n = 18). The crossability between these two species, and the cytomorphology of the F₁ plants and the amphidiploids were investigated. Intergeneric hybrids between the species were obtained only when B. tournefortii was involved as female parent. The hybrid plants were intermediate for most of the morphological attributes and showed very low pollen fertility compared to the parents. Although a majority of the pollen mother cells of the dihaploid hybrid (TR, 2n = 19) harboured univalents, a maximum of six bivalents were also observed. Of the 37 colchicine-treated F₁ plants analyzed cytologically, 21 were found to be true amphidiploids (2n = 38), whereas seven were mixoploids. Meiosis in the amphidiploids was characterized by the occurrence of 19 bivalents, though multivalents and univalents were also observed in a few cells. Most of the amphidiploid plants exhibited a fairly high pollen and seed fertility, which was further enhanced with the advancement of generations. Out of 69 plants investigated in the A₂ generation, 64 were euploids while the remaining five were aneuploids (2n = 36, 37, 39, 40 and 42). The newly synthesized Raphanofortii has great potential as a new commercial crop, as well as a bridge species for the transfer of economically important attributes of both the species to other Brassicas.

Cytogenetical changes of offsprings from the induced tetraploid hybrid betweenRanunculus silerifolius (2n = 16) andR. chinensis (2n = 16) (Ranunculaceae)

Cytogenetical studies were carried out on the successive generations of offsprings from the induced tetraploid hybrid (2n = 32) betweenRanunculus silerifolius (2n = 16) andR. chinensis (2n = 16). Aneuploids, 2n = 30 to 35, frequently occurred. In latter subsequent generations the deviation of aneuploids increased, but the proportion of euploids decreased, accompanied by the reduction of fertility of pollen grains and seed sets. F₂ and F₄ PMCs constantly exhibited meiotic abnormality, i.e. formation of quadrivalents and univalents. The speciation process ofR. cantoniensis (2n = 32), which was presumed to arise from tetraploid hybrids between the above two species, is discussed on the basis of the above evidences.Former contributions of this series areOkada & Tamura (1977) andOkada (1984).     

Karyomorphological analyses and heterochromatin characteristics disclose phyletic relationships among 2n = 32 and 2n = 36 species ofOrchis (Orchidaceae)

The karyotypes of eight taxa ofOrchis L. with 2n = 32 and 2n = 36 have been investigated using morphometrical measurements following staining with Feulgen, Giemsa (C-banding) and the DNA specific fluorochrome Hoechst 33258. The karyotypes ofO. coriophora subsp.fragrans, andO. papilionacea proved to be the most asymmetrical, whileO. morio andO. longicornu exhibited the most symmetrical karyotypes. Using C-banding and the fluorochrome H33258 only the taxa with high asymmetry indices showed the presence of differentially stained chromatin bands. In most chromosomes heterochromatin bands were present at the telomeric position. The present results seem to indicate that the analysed species do not form a homogeneous group and further subdivisions are possible, which, in turn, do not always correlate with divisions based on morphological characters. Both karyomorphology and heterochromatin distribution coincide in indicating a possible evolutionary pathway.     

Production of potato monohaploids (2n=x=12) through prickle pollination

Summary Data are presented on the potential of gynogenesis for the production of monohaploids and on factors affecting their frequency and relative vigour. Diploid Solanum tuberosum L. and S. tuberosumxS. phureja Juz et Buk hybrids were used as maternal parents and selected S. phureja clones as prickle pollinators with embryo-spot and nodal band as dominant seed and plant marker. About 2 million seeds were screened for absence of embryo-spot. After raising plants from phenotypically spotless seeds, further screening for absence of nodal bands and for ploidy level was carried out. Finally more than 500 monohaploid plants from three genetically different groups of maternal parents were obtained. Frequency and vigour of the monohaploids were clearly dependent on their maternal genotypes. The data also indicated an effect of the pollinator genotype, the physiological stage of the maternal plant and the environment on monohaploid frequency. On the basis of these results the possibility of breeding for a higher monohaploid production rate and for more stable and vigorous monohaploids is discussed. Furthermore, gynogenesis and androgenesis are compared. It is suggested that both should be used in order to obtain monohaploids from sufficiently various diploid breeding material.     

Construction and molecular and cytogenetic analyses of euploid (2n = 42) and telocentric addition (2n = 42 + 2t) alloplasmic lines (Hordeum marinum subsp gussoneanum)-Triticum aestivum

Individual plants from the BC1F5 and BC1F6 backcross progenies of barley--wheat (= H. geniculatum All.) (2n = 28) x T. aestivum L. (2n = 42)] and the BC1F6 progeny of their amphiploids were used to obtain alloplasmic euploid (2n = 42) lines L-28, L-29, and L-49 and alloplasmic telocentric addition (2n = 42 + 2t) lines L-37, L-38, and L-50. The lines were examined by genomic in situ hybridization (GISH), microsatellite analysis, chromosome C-banding, and PCR analysis of the mitochondrial 18S/5S repeat. Lines L-29 and L-49 were characterized by substitution of wild barley chromosome 7H1 for common wheat chromosome 7D. In line L-49, common wheat chromosomes 1B, 5D, and 7D were substituted with homeologous barley chromosomes. Lines L-37, L-38, and L-50 each contained a pair of telocentric chromosomes, which corresponded to barley chromosome arm 7H'L. All lines displayed heteroplasmy for the mitochondrial 18S/5S locus; i.e., both barley and wheat sequences were found.     

Evidence for the existence of 2n gametes in Lotus tenuis Wald. et Kit. (2n=2x=12): their relevance in evolution and breeding of Lotus corniculatus L. (2n=4x=24)

Summary Crosses between male sterile L. corniculatus (2n=4x=24) and L. tenuis (2n=2x=12) plants were performed in order to verify the presence of 2n gametes in L. tenuis. All but one of the plants from these crosses had 2n=4x=24 and the L. corniculatus phenotype; this plant had 2n=2x=12 and the L. tenuis phenotype. The plants also showed good quantity of pollen at tripping, good pollen fertility and good percentage of seed setting in the backcross to L. corniculatus. On the whole, both cytological and morphological observations, showing that all but one of the plants from L. corniculatus x L. tenuis were normal tetraploids, suggest the existence of diploandrous gametes in L. tenuis. On the other hand, haploid parthenogenesis probably gave origin to the dihaploid plant 2n=2x=12.     

Medicago murex with 2n=16 and 2n=14 chromosome complements

Contrary to the generally held view, M. murex Willd. was found to be of 2n=14 constitution in the great majority of accessions. The 2n= 16 type, though distributed sparsely over a wide area, is most likely a relic. Chromosome studies at pachytene indicate that the 2n=14 type probably arose from the 2n=16 type by translocation of the chromosomal material of the smallest chromosome in the 2n=16 complement to one of the longer chromosomes, with loss of the centromere of the small chromosome. The total chromosome lengths of the two types thus remained not significantly different, which is in line with the few small morphological differences which were detectable between the two types. Of considerably phylogenetic interest was the finding of complete inter-sterility of the two M. murex types. Neither M. aculeata 2n= 16 nor M. constricta 2n=14 could be crossed with M. murex of the same chromosome number. Inviable hybrids were obtained on crossing M. murex 2n= 16 with M. turbinata 2n=16. The spiny vs. spineless pod character was investigated in the 2n=16 type and found to be inherited on a monofactorial basis.     

Comparative mapping of twenty-eight bovine loci in sheep (Ovis aries, 2n = 54) and river buffalo (Bubalus bubalis, 2n = 50) by FISH

Peripheral blood cell cultures were treated for late incorporation of both BrdU and Hoechst-33258 to obtain R-banding pattern preparations. Twenty-eight bovine cosmids from 19 bovine syntenic groups (U), three of which contain type I loci and 25 which contain microsatellite loci and have previously been assigned to cattle chromosomes, were comparatively FISH-mapped to sheep and river buffalo chromosomes according to the standard karyotypes (13 loci for the first time in the latter species). The results enrich the physical maps of both species with information relative to the following loci and to the corresponding syntenic groups: IDVGA35 and IDVGA53 (U6), IDVGA61 and IDVGA84 (U13), JAB10 (U5), IDVGA41 and IDVGA57 (U27), IDVGA87 (U11), IDVGA32 and IDVGA10 (U19), IDVGA49, IDVGA66 and IDVGA68 (U1), ZNF164 (U23), IDVGA74 and IDVGA70 (U9), IDVGA47, IDVGA46 and IDVGA58 (U21), MAP1B (U14), IDVGA79 (U4), CATHL (U12), IDVGA71 (U8), IDVGA59 (U26), IDVGA29 (U29), IDVGA7 (U7), IDVGA82 (X), IDVGA50 (Y). All mapped loci were localized on homoeologous chromosomes and chromosome regions of the two species, confirming the high degree of chromosome homoeologies between the subfamilies Bovinae and Caprinae.     

A comparative map of wild rice (Zizania palustris L. 2n=2x=30)

We present the first genetic map of wild rice (Zizania palustris L., 2n=2x=30), a native aquatic grain of northern North America. The map is composed principally of previously mapped RFLP (restriction fragment length polymorphism) genetic markers from rice (Oryza sativa 2n=2x=24). The map is important as a foundation for genetic and crop improvement studies, as well as a reference for genome organization comparisons among Gramineae species. A comparative mapping approach with rice is especially useful because wild rice is grouped in the same subfamily, Oryzoideae, and no other mapping comparison has yet been made within the subfamily. As rice is the reference point for mapping and gene cloning in cereals, establishing a consensus map within the subfamily identifies conserved and unique regions. The genomes of wild rice and rice differ in total DNA content (wild rice has twice that of rice) and chromosome pairs (wild rice=15 versus rice=12). The wild rice linkage map reported herein consists of 121 RFLP markers on 16 linkage groups spanning 1805 cM. Two linkage groups consist of only two markers. Colinear markers were found representing all rice linkage groups except #12. The majority of rice loci mapped to colinearly arranged arrays in wild rice (92 of 118). Features of the map include duplication of portions of three rice linkage groups and three possible translocations. The map gives basic information on the composition of the wild rice genome and provides tools to assist in the domestication of this important food source.
