Determination of the frequency of wheat-rye chromosome pairing in wheat x rye hybrids with and without chromosome 5B

Genomic in-situ hybridization (GISH) was used to determine the amount of wheat-rye chromosome pairing in wheat (Triticum aestivum) x rye (Secale cereale) hybrids having chromosome 5B present, absent, or replaced by an extra dose of chromosome 5D. The levels of overall chromosome pairing were similar to those reported earlier but the levels of wheat-rye pairing were higher than earlier determinations using C-banding. Significant differences in chromosome pairing were found between the three genotypes studied. Both of the chromosome-5B-deficient hybrid genotypes showed much higher pairing than the euploid wheat hybrid. However, the 5B-deficient hybrid carrying an extra chromosome 5D had significantly less wheat-rye pairing than the simple 5B-deficient genotype, indicating the presence of a suppressing factor on chromosome 5D. Non-homologous/non-homoeologous chromosome pairing was observed in all three hybrid genotypes. The value of GISH for assessing the level of wheat-alien chromosome pairing in wheat/alien hybrids and the effectiveness of wheat genotypes that affect homoeologous chromosome pairing is demonstrated.     

Recombination-Independent Mechanisms and Pairing of Homologous Chromosomes during Meiosis in Plants

Meiosis is the specialized eukaryotic cell division that permits the halving of ploidy necessary for game- togenesis in sexually reproducing organisms, This involves a single round of DNA replication followed by two successive divisions. To ensure balanced segregation, homologous chromosome pairs must migrate to opposite poles at the first meiotic division and this means that they must recognize and pair with each other beforehand. Although understanding of the mechanisms by which meiotic chromosomes find and pair with their homologs has greatly advanced, it remains far from being fully understood. With some notable exceptions such as male Drosophila, the recognition and physical link- age of homologs at the first meiotic division involves homologous recombination. However, in addition to this, it is clear that many organisms, including plants, have also evolved a series of recombination-independent mechanisms to facili- tate homolog recognition and pairing. These implicate chromosome structure and dynamics, telomeres, centromeres, and, most recently, small RNAs. With a particular focus on plants, we present here an overview of understanding of these early, recombination-independent events that act in the pairing of homologous chromosomes during the first meiotic division,

Bryum capillare L. ex Hedw was found. to have n = 10; Mnium lycopodioides Schwaegr. n = 6 with the karyotype formula n = 6 = 3m+3sm (1SAT); Plagiomnium maximoviczii (Lindl.)T. Kop. n=6; Bartramia halleriana var. elongate Turn. n=10+2m; Thuidium delicatulum (Hedw.) Mitt. n= 11; Thuidium philibertii Limpr. n= 10+m; Hygrohypnum ochraceum (Wils.) Loesk. n=10; Drepanocladus uncinatus (Hedw.) Warnst. n = 7+3m; Campylium chrysophyllus (Brid.) J. Lange. n = 10; Brachythecium starkei (Brid.) B. S. G. n=6; Brachythecium buchananii (Hook.) Jaeg. n=6; Brotherella yokohamae (Broth.)Broth. n= 9+2m; Gollamia neckerella (C. MÜll. )Broth. N=7; Pogonatum fastigiatum Mitt. n = 7. No report on the chromosome number of Brotherella yokohamae and Gollania neckerella has been found. The chromosome numbers in Brachythecium starkei andBrachythecium buchananii (Hook.)

Hybridization between Triticum aestivum L. and Agropyron michnoi Roshev.

Summary Intergeneric hybrids between Triticum aestivum cv Chinese Spring (2n=6x=42, AABBDD) and Agropyron michnoi Roshev. (2n=4x=28, PPPP) were obtained by embryo culture. Their spike characteristics were similar to those of common wheat but, unlike their parents, they were long-awned. The average meiotic chromosome pairing at MI of F₁ hybrids was: 6.39 I +3.75 rodII+8.64 ringII+0.81 III+0.30 IV+0.04 V, the bivalent and multivalent formation of which was much higher than expected from the genomic formulae. It is especially worthwhile to note that the F₁ hybrids were self-fertile, self set being 0.15%, and seeds were easily obtained from the backcross of f₁ plants with hexaploid and tetraploid wheats; here the seed set was more than 20.0%. The polyploid taxa and the position of A. Michnoi in Agropyron are discussed.     

Ten Years of Gene Discovery for Meiotic Event Control in Rice

Meiosis is the crucial process by which sexually propagating eukaryotes give rise to haploid gametes from diploid cells. Several key processes, like homologous chromosomes pairing, synapsis, recombination, and segregation, sequentially take place in meiosis. Although these widely conserved events are under both genetic and epigenetic control, the accurate details of molecular mechanisms are continuing to investigate. Rice is a good model organism for exploring the molecular mechanisms of meiosis in higher plants. So far, 28 rice meiotic genes have been characterized. In this review, we give an overview of the discovery of rice meiotic genes in the last ten years, with a particular focus on their functions in meiosis.

濒危植物矮沙冬青减数分裂期染色体行为的观察

用涂片法和酶解法,观察了濒危植物矮沙冬青的减数分裂过程。在减数分裂双线期末或终变期初,可以观察到9个二价体,在中期Ⅰ末至后期Ⅰ初,同源染色体基本排列在赤道板上,然后在纺锤丝的牵引下二价体的两条同源染色体分开,分别移向两极,每一极有9条染色体,从而确认该属植物的染色体基数为x=9。在矮沙冬青减数分裂过程中,没有发现染色体有异常行为,认为其小孢子形成过程正常。因此认为矮沙冬青濒危不是染色体行为异常和小孢子发育不正常而造成的。

Three stages of meiotic homologous chromosome pairing in wheat: cognition, alignment and synapsis

 Chromosome painting enabled the study of homologous chromosome behaviour prior to and during meiosis. Total genomic DNA from rye, used as a probe for in situ hybridization, identified the rye chromosome arm in a wheat-rye translocation line (T5AS·5RL) at meiotic prophase and the preceding interphase. Accurate staging of the development of the meiocytes was attained by parallel studies of chromatin morphology, nucleolar behaviour and synaptonemal complex formation in electron microscopy thin sections and silver-stained surface spreads. Three stages of pairing were identified for the large cereal genomes that are organized in a Rabl configuration: first, cognition occurs during the long interphase before leptotene, bringing the homologous chromosome domains into close proximity and possibly starting at the centromere; second, homologous chromosome segments align at late leptotene; and third, zygotene synapsis initiates near the telomere, although it was also observed to occur near the centromere. A pairing model is proposed for wheat, with a genome size of 17000 Mbp, that shows prallels to and notable differences from yeast and mammalian models of meiosis.

响叶杨小孢子母细胞减数分裂及染色体行为的研究

采用醋酸洋红压片法对响叶杨（Populus adenopoda）小孢子母细胞减数分裂进程中的染色体行为进行了研究。结果表明：响叶杨小孢子发生发育过程与其雄花芽／花序的外部特征和花药颜色有着密切关系;住其减数分裂进程中染色体行为正常,表明响叶杨同源染色体间表现出了较高的同源性,在中期Ⅱ平行纺锤体的出现与天然花粉中大花粉的存在可能有一定的联系;同时,减数分裂过程中核仁数目存在若动态变化,这种现象叮能与杨属植物占多倍性起源有关。同一花芽的不同部位,减数分裂进程较不同步,这种小同步性是响叶杨适应环境的一种进化表现。
