The B chromosomes of maize are condensed in appearance during interphase and are relatively inert genetically; therefore they fulfill the definition of heterochromatin. This heterochromatin was studied in root meristem cells by radioautography following administration of tritiated thymidine and cytidine, and was found to behave in a characteristic way, i.e. it showed asynchronous DNA synthesis and very low, if any, RNA synthesis. A cytochemical comparison of normal maize nuclei with nuclei from isogenic maize stock containing approximately 15–20 B-chromosomes in addition to the normal complement has revealed the following: (a) the DNA and histone contents are greater in nuclei with B chromosomes; (b) the proportion of DNA to histone is identical with that of nuclei containing only normal chromosomes; (c) the amount of nonhistone protein in proportion to DNA in interphase is less in nuclei with B chromosomes than in normal nuclei. In condensed B chromosomes the ratio of nonhistone protein to DNA is similar to that in other condensed chromatin, such as metaphase chromosomes and degenerating nuclei. The B chromosomes appear to have no effect on nucleolar RNA and protein. Replication of B chromosomes is precisely controlled and is comparable to that of the ordinary chromosomes not only in synthesis for mitosis but also in formation of polyploid nuclei of root cap and protoxylem cells. 相似文献

Meiotic analysis of 21 plants from a single population of Gibasis linearis which contained from 0 to 6 apparently identical B chromosomes showed that the mean chiasma frequencies were significantly higher with increasing numbers of Bs. It was also found that those meiotic cells of a 5B plant which contained fewer than five B chromosomes showed a marked fall in chiasma frequency, demonstrating that the influence of B chromosomes on chiasma formation in A chromosomes acts at a cellular rather than a whole-anther level. 相似文献

B chromosomes are dispensable chromosomes found in >2000 eukaryotic species, usually behaving as genomic parasites. Most B chromosomes seem to be made up of the same kind of DNA sequences present in the A chromosomes. This sequence similarity makes it difficult to obtain specific molecular probes that may permit B-presence diagnosis without cytogenetic analysis. We have developed a sequence-characterized amplified region (SCAR) marker for B chromosomes in the grasshopper Eyprepocnemis plorans, which specifically amplifies a 1510-bp DNA fragment exclusively in B-carrying individuals. Fluorescent in situ hybridization and fiber FISH analyses showed that this marker is a tandemly repeated DNA sequence closely intermingled with 45S rDNA. PCR reactions showed the presence of SCAR-like sequences in the A chromosomes, but in two separate fragments, supporting the intraspecific origin of B chromosomes in this species. SCAR marker DNA sequence showed to be identical in B chromosome variants from several localities from Spain and Morocco, and it was very similar to those found in B chromosome variants from Greece and Armenia. This strongly suggests that this sequence was already present in the ancestral B chromosome of this species. In addition, the scarce sequence variation observed among several B variants from very distant populations suggests either a functional constraint or, more likely, a recent and unique origin for B chromosomes in this species. 相似文献

DNA fingerprinting with three repetitive DNA sequences (OPX2, PB6-4 and Sat-121) was carried out on a set of 10 monosomic additions of Beta procumbens and 75 anonymous B. patellaris-derived monosomic additions in B. vulgaris, for characterization of the alien chromosomes at the DNA level. The probes are Procumbentes-specific and distributed over all chromosomes. Morphological characteristics were also used for the classification of B. patellaris monosomic addition families and for comparison with the morphology of the addition families of B. procumbens.DNA fingerprinting revealed unique patterns for almost all individual addition chromosomes of B. procumbens. However, it was concluded that chromosomes 1 and 6 of B. procumbens may be identical with the only difference that the chromosome referred to as 6 carries a susceptible allele for beet cyst nematode (BCN) resistance. In contrast, it was concluded that the two addition types with chromosome 2 are carrying different chromosomes of B. procumbens, so that one of them was renumbered to become the new chromosome 6.DNA fingerprinting of 75 anonymous B. patellaris-derived monosomic additions facilitated the identification and characterization of the alien chromosomes and the grouping of these additions into nine different groups. Several of these groups could be divided in two sub-groups on the basis of small differences in banding patterns. The results of the DNA fingerprinting led to the conclusion that B. patellaris most likely is an allotetraploid. It was also deduced that the BCN gene(s) in this species are homozygous and located on chromosome 1, while the pair of homoeologous chromosomes does not carry such BCN gene(s). Because of the allotetraploid nature of B. patellaris, preferential association occurs between the two homologous chromosomes containing the allele(s) for BCN resistance. Each group of B. patellaris addition families united by DNA fingerprinting had comparable morphological characteristics. Some of these morphological traits appeared to be chromosome-specific and were very useful for primary classification of the addition families. However, the present study showed that these morphological traits are not adequate for the identification of all alien chromosomes without the aid of additional markers. Because of similarities observed between molecular characteristics or the effects on plant morphology of several chromosomes of B. procumbens and B. patellaris it was concluded that B. procumbens could have been involved in the evolutionary history of B. patellaris. 相似文献

B chromosomes constitute a heterogeneous mixture of genomic parasites that are sometimes derived intraspecifically from the standard genome of the host species, but result from interspecific hybridization in other cases. The mode of origin determines the DNA content, with the B chromosomes showing high similarity with the A genome in the first case, but presenting higher similarity with a different species in the second. The characid fish Moenkhausia sanctaefilomenae harbours highly invasive B chromosomes, which are present in all populations analyzed to date in the Parana and Tietê rivers. To investigate the origin of these B chromosomes, we analyzed two natural populations: one carrying B chromosomes and the other lacking them, using a combination of molecular cytogenetic techniques, nucleotide sequence analysis and high-throughput sequencing (Illumina HiSeq2000). Our results showed that i) B chromosomes have not yet reached the Paranapanema River basin; ii) B chromosomes are mitotically unstable; iii) there are two types of B chromosomes, the most frequent of which is lightly C-banded (similar to euchromatin in A chromosomes) (B1), while the other is darkly C-banded (heterochromatin-like) (B2); iv) the two B types contain the same tandem repeat DNA sequences (18S ribosomal DNA, H3 histone genes, MS3 and MS7 satellite DNA), with a higher content of 18S rDNA in the heterochromatic variant; v) all of these repetitive DNAs are present together only in the paracentromeric region of autosome pair no. 6, suggesting that the B chromosomes are derived from this A chromosome; vi) the two B chromosome variants show MS3 sequences that are highly divergent from each other and from the 0B genome, although the B2-derived sequences exhibit higher similarity with the 0B genome (this suggests an independent origin of the two B variants, with the less frequent, B2 type presumably being younger); and vii) the dN/dS ratio for the H3.2 histone gene is almost 4–6 times higher for B chromosomes than for A chromosome sequences, suggesting that purifying selection is relaxed for the DNA sequences located on the B chromosomes, presumably because they are mostly inactive. 相似文献

B chromosomes are known from 26 species of salamanders and frogs, equivalent to about 2% of amphibian species that have been karyotyped. In most cases, the structure of amphibian B chromosomes has not been extensively investigated. The exceptions are the B chromosomes of Hochstetter's frog, Leiopelma hochstetteri, from New Zealand, and the Coastal Giant salamander, Dicamptodon tenebrosus, from North America. Dicamptodon tenebrosus carries from 0 to 10 non-heterochromatic, telocentric B chromosomes per individual, averaging 0 to 3.4 B chromosomes per individual in populations throughout its extensive range. The B chromosomes of L. hochstetteri occur in frequencies averaging from 0 to 11.4 per individual in different populations, with a known maximum of 15 B chromosomes. Amphibian B chromosomes vary in size, heterochromatin, occurrence and frequency. They are commensurate in size and structure with the rest of the A set of chromosomes of the same species in which they occur. The B chromosomes are at least partly composed of repetitive DNA sequences which exist in numerous copies throughout the autosomes, in conformity to an hypothesis of intraspecific B chromosome origins. 相似文献

Human and swine chromosomes were analyzed separately and as a mix to obtain bivariate flow karyotypes. They were normalized to each other in order to use the human chromosomal DNA content as standard. Our results led to the characterization of the "DNA line" in swine identical to the human "DNA line." Estimation of the DNA content in mega-base pairs of the swine chromosomes is proposed. Chromosomal assignment to the various resolved peaks on the bivariate swine flow karyotype is suggested from the relation between DNA content quantified by flow cytometry and chromosomal size. Swine chromosomes 1, 13, 6, 5, 10, 16, 11, 18, and Y were assigned to peaks A, B, C, K, L, N, O, Q, and Y, respectively. Peaks D and E were assumed to contain chromosomes 2 and 14, but without specific assignment. Similarly, P and M peaks were expected to correspond to chromosomes 12 and 17. Of the remaining chromosomes (3, 7, X, 8, 15, 9, and 4), chromosomes 3, 7, and X, which were assigned previously to peaks F, G, and H, respectively, led us to deduce that chromosomes 15 and 8 belonged to peaks I and J, and chromosomes 9, 4, and X to peak H. 相似文献

The mitotic chromosomes of an Ecuadorian population of the marsupial frog Gastrotheca espeletia were analyzed by means of banding techniques and fluorescence in situ hybridization. This species is characterized by unusual supernumerary (B) chromosomes. The maximum number of B chromosomes is 9 and they occur in three different morphological types. Banding analyses show that the B chromosomes are completely heterochromatic, consist of AT base pair-rich repeated DNA sequences, replicate their DNA in very late S-phase of the cell cycle, and are probably derived from a centromeric or paracentromeric region of a standard (A) chromosome. Exceptionally, the B chromosomes carry 18S + 28S ribosomal RNA genes and the conserved vertebrate telomeric DNA sequence appears to be underrepresented. Flow cytometric measurements of the nuclear DNA content differentiate between individuals with different numbers of B chromosomes. Significantly more B chromosomes are present in female than in male animals. 相似文献

A new bacteriophage phiK of microorganisms belonging to the genus Bordetella was isolated from cells of the earlier characterized strains 66(2-2) (1 and 2) obtained upon phage conversion of B. parapertussis 17903 cells by B. pertussis bacteriophage phi134. Bacteriophage phiK is identical to previously described Bordetella bacteriophages phiT, phi134, and phi214 in morphology and some biological properties but has a permuted genome different from all other phages. DNA of bacteriophage phiK is not integrated in the chromosome of B. parapertussis 17903, similar to DNA of bacteriophages phiT, phi134, and phi214 that are not integrated into B. pertussis and B. bronchiseptica chromosomes, but may be present in a small part of the bacterial population as linear plasmids. Sequences homologous to DNA of bacteriophage phiK were detected in the chromosome of strain 66(2-2) (1 and 2) and in chromosomes of all tested strains B. pertussis and B. bronchiseptica. Prophage integration in chromosomes of microorganisms of the genus Bordetella may vary in different bacterial strains and species. An assumption about abortive lysogeny of B. parapertussis bacteria for phiK phage and of B. bronchiseptica for closely related phages phiT, phi134, and phi214 has been advanced. The possibility of involvement of B. pertussis insertion sequences in the formation of the chromosomal structure in 66(2-2) convertants and in phage genomes is considered. 相似文献

Supernumerary B chromosomes represent one of many causes of numerical chromosome variation that exist in higher plants and animals. Sequences of DNA unique to B chromosomes of Brachycome dichromosomatica were enriched prior to cloning and resultant clones hybridizing only to plants containing B chromosomes were further investigated. Sequences of DNA that were characterised include members of a family of 176-bp tandem repeats that are specific to the B chromosomes of B. dichromosomatica, an annual Australian native plant species with only two pairs of A chromosomes and up to three dispensable B chromosomes. Sequence analysis of these six related clones indicated that some regions of the sequence are more highly conserved than others or, alternatively, that some adenine residues at the NdeII site are methylated. The repeat is homologous to DNA from Brachycome ciliaris var. languinosa but not to DNA from other related taxa growing in the vicinity of the B. dichromosomatica populations. 相似文献

Supernumerary (B) chromosomes have been shown to contain a wide variety of repetitive sequences. For this reason, fluorescent in situ hybridisation (FISH) is a useful tool for ascertaining the origin of these genomic elements, especially when combined with painting from microdissected B chromosomes. In order to investigate the origin of B chromosomes in the fish species Astyanax paranae, these two approaches were used along with PCR amplification of specific DNA sequences obtained from the B chromosomes and its comparison with those residing in the A chromosomes. Remarkably, chromosome painting with the one-arm metacentric B chromosome probe showed hybridization signals on entire B chromosome, while FISH mapping revealed the presence of H1 histone and 18S rDNA genes symmetrically placed in both arms of the B chromosome. These results support the hypothesis that the B chromosome of A. paranae is an isochromosome. Additionally, the chromosome pairs Nos. 2 or 23 are considered the possible B chromosome ancestors since both contain syntenic H1 and 18S rRNA sequences. The analysis of DNA sequence fragments of the histone and rRNA genes obtained from the microdissected B chromosomes showed high similarity with those obtained from 0B individuals, which supports the intraspecific origin of B chromosomes in A. paranae. Finally, the population hereby analysed showed a female-biased B chromosome presence suggesting that B chromosomes in this species could influence sex determinism. 相似文献

Experiments were performed on Crepis capillaris callus lines with 0, 1 and 2 B chromosomes and on hairy root lines without or with 1 and 2 B chromosomes. Comparison of HPLC results for DNA from calli differing in number of B chromosomes did not reveal any significant differences in methylation level (30.4 +/- 1.1%, 30.9 +/- 1.2%, 31.7 +/- 1.7% in lines without or with one or two B chromosomes respectively) which could be attributed to the number of B chromosomes. Restriction patterns obtained after DNA digestion with HhaI, HpaII, MspI or HaeIII (i.e. restriction enzymes sensitive to cytosine methylation) were similar in calli and apical root segments and also did not depend on the presence or number of B chromosomes. Methylation of B chromosomes higher than that of A chromosomes was demonstrated by fluorescent in situ nick translation driven by HpaII, MspI or HaeIII in metaphase chromosomes. After short digestion (I and 3 h), B chromosomes, in contrast to A chromosomes, were weakly labelled or not labelled at all, which indicates longer distances between target sequences containing unmethylated cytosine in the former. 相似文献

Structural features of DNA in competent Bacillus subtilis 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11
Summary For efficient transformation with B. subtilis, recipient cells must be grown to the state termed competence. Previous findings indicated that such competent cells contained DNA which exhibited about 5% single-strandedness. In this work, the physico-chemical properties of this DNA are compared to artificially nicked DNA. Evidence is presented that breakdown of the host DNA occurs during growth to competence. Inhibition of this breakdown also prevents the formation of partially single-stranded chromosomes within the competent cells. Use of this DNA as donor in transformation studies indicated a deficiency in biological activity within specific genes. Of three models considered, it is concluded that the results are best explained by the occurrence of single-stranded gaps within the chromosomes of competent cells. 相似文献

Comparative analysis of micro B and macro B chromosomes of the Korean field mouse Apodemus peninsulae, collected in populations from Siberia and the Russian Far East, was performed with Giemsa, DAPI, Ag-NOR staining and chromosome painting with whole and partial chromosome probes generated by microdissection and DOP-PCR. DNA composition of micro B chromosomes was different from that of macro B chromosomes. All analyzed micro B chromosomes contained clusters of DNA repeats associated with regions characterized by an uncondensed state in mitosis. Giemsa and DAPI staining did not reveal these regions. Their presence in micro B chromosomes led to their special morphology and underestimation in size. DNA repeat clusters homologous to DNA of micro B chromosome arms were also revealed in telomeric regions of some macro B chromosomes of specimens captured in Siberian regions. Neither active NORs nor clusters of ribosomal DNA were found in the uncondensed regions of micro B chromosomes. Possible evolutionary pathways for the origin of macro and micro B chromosomes are discussed. 相似文献

The B chromosome of Crepis capillaris was isolated from the standard chromosomes by microdissection, and the chromosomal DNA amplified using the degenerate oligonucleotide-primed polymerase chain reaction (DOP-PCR). The PCR product was cloned and a Bspecific library created and characterised. Southern and in situ hybridisation analyses of the DOP-PCR product from microdissected B chromosomes confirmed that the B chromosome is composed mainly of sequences also present in the A chromosomes but lacks the main repeated DNA families located in the A-chromosomal heterochromatin. From 100 clones analysed, 12% of the generated B-chromosomal library was shown to be composed of dispersed repeats located in both the A and B chromosomes. No B-specific repeated sequence was detected. One of the most abundant repeated DNAs within the library, the family B134, was further characterised. Repeating units show a sequence similarity range from 69% to 90% and are characterised by their richness in (CA)n repeats. In situ hybridisation revealed that members of this family are dispersed throughout the A and B chromosomes but are more concentrated in the pericentromeric heterochromatin of the B, indicating that the molecular organization of B heterochromatin is different from that of the A chromosomes. Compared with the A chromosomes, the Bs contain about 20,000 copies per micron more of the B134 sequence. This indicates that B134 was amplified on the B chromosome after its origin. The B134 sequences in the B chromosomes have also diverged from those on the A chromosomes. Although the DNA composition of A and B chromosomes is similar, Bs are evolving separately from A chromosomes at the molecular level. 相似文献

B chromosomes are additional chromosomes widely studied in a diversity of eukaryotic groups, including fungi, plants and animals,
but their origin, evolution and possible functions are not clearly understood. To further understand the genomic content and
the evolutionary history of B chromosomes, classical and molecular cytogenetic analyses were conducted in the cichlid fish
Astatotilapia latifasciata, which harbor 1–2 B chromosomes. Through cytogenetic mapping of several probes, including transposable elements, rRNA genes,
a repeated DNA genomic fraction (C
0
t − 1 DNA), whole genome probes (comparative genomic hybridization), and BAC clones from Oreochromis niloticus, we found similarities between the B chromosome and the 1st chromosome pair and chromosomes harboring rRNA genes. Based on
the cytogenetic mapping data, we suggest the B chromosome may have evolved from a small chromosomal fragment followed by the
invasion of the proto-B chromosome by several repeated DNA families. 相似文献

The sensitivity of different plant species to mutagenic agents is related to the DNA content and organization of the chromatin, which have been described in ABCW and bodyguard hypotheses, respectively. Plant species that have B chromosomes are good models for the study of these hypotheses. This study presents an analysis of the correlation between the occurrence of B chromosomes and the DNA damage that is induced by the chemical mutagen, maleic hydrazide (MH), in Crepis capillaris plants using comet assay. The presence of B chromosomes has a detectable impact on the level of DNA damage. The level of DNA damage after MH treatment was correlated with the number of B chromosomes and it was observed that it increased significantly in plants with 3B chromosomes. We did not find evidence of the protective role from chemical mutagens of the constitutive heterochromatin for euchromatin in relation to DNA damage. The DNA damage involving the 25S rDNA sequences was analyzed using the comet-FISH technique. Fragmentation within or near the 25S rDNA involved the loci on the A and B chromosomes. The presence of B chromosomes in C. capillaris cells had an influence on the level of DNA damage that involves the 25S rDNA region. 相似文献

In addition to the standard set of chromosomes (A), about 15% of eukaryote genomes carry B chromosomes. In most cases, B chromosomes
behave as genomic parasites being detrimental for the individuals carrying them and prospering in natural populations because
of transmission advantages (drive). B chromosomes are mostly made up of repetitive DNA sequences, especially ribosomal DNA
(rDNA), satellite DNA and mobile elements. In only two cases have B chromosomes been shown to carry protein-coding genes.
Although some B chromosomes seem to have derived from interspecific hybridisation, the most likely source of B chromosomes
is the host genome itself, but the specific A chromosome being the B ancestor has not been identified in any B-containing
species. Here, we provide strong evidence for B chromosome ancestry in the migratory locust, based on the location of genes
for the H3 and H4 histones in the B chromosome and a single A chromosome pair (i.e. the eighth in order of decreasing size).
The high DNA sequence similarity of A and B chromosome H3–H4 genes supports B-origin from chromosome 8. The higher variation
shown by B sequences, compared to A sequences, suggests that B chromosome sequences are most likely inactive and thus less
subjected to purifying selection. Estimates of time of divergence for histone genes from A and B chromosomes suggest that
B chromosomes are quite old (>750,000 years), showing the B-chromosome ability to persist in natural populations for long
periods of time. 相似文献
