Comparative karyotype analyses of five diploid, two tetraploid, and three hexaploid species of Helianthuswere performed using Feulgen staining, Giemsa C and CMA3 (C-CMA) staining, and FISH with 45S rDNA probe. The karyotypes are composed by a basic number of x=17 with a predominance of meta- and submetacentric chromosome types. A polyploid series is associated with the basic number. Giemsa C- and C-CMA banding revealed terminal or interstitial heterochromatin according to the species, suggesting the existence of a mechanism that may be acting in the dispersion of heterochromatic segments in Helianthus. The nucleolar organizer regions were located at terminal chromosome positions by FISH with 45S rDNA probe. Diploid species presented four, six, and eight rDNA sites, tetraploid species showed eight sites and hexaploid species presented 12 rDNA sites. Karyomorphological differences include variation in number, size and chromosome morphology, suggesting that rearrangements involving small heterochromatic and rDNA segments played a major role in karyotype evolution.  相似文献

Detailed C-banded karyotypes of eight diploidArtemisia species from three different sections are reported together with preliminary observations on three additional related diploid species. In the majority, the overall amount of banding is relatively low. Bands are mostly confined to distal chromosome regions; intercalary banding is virtually absent and centromeric heterochromatin is also scarce. With the exception ofA. judaica there is in general great uniformity in karyotype structure but considerable interspecific variation in total karyotype length (and hence DNA content) ranging from 44 µm inA. capillaris (2n = 18) to 99 µm inA. atrata (2n = 18).A. judaica (2n = 16; total karyotype length 97 µm) was distinguished by its karyomorphology, with one large non-banded metacentric chromosome pair and 7 pairs of smaller terminally banded meta- or submetacentric chromosomes.  相似文献

Prospero is a Mediterranean autumn-flowering genus ofHyacinthaceae commonly classified inScilla asS. autumnalis andS. obtusifolia. Extensive dysploid and polyploid variation has been reported. In the present study 77 diploid accessions from the western to the eastern part of the area of distribution, the major part being from continental Greece and Crete, have been analysed for karyotype structure and, in part, for genome size. Methods employed were acetocarmine staining, Giemsa C-banding, fluorochrome staining mainly with chromomycin A3/DAPI, silver impregnation, and Feulgen densitometry. Banded idiograms were established with a computer assisted karyotype analysis procedure. Chromosome numbers were 2n = 8 inP. obtusifolium, and 2n = 12 and 14 inP. autumnale s. l. Dispensable euchromatic chromosome segments and different types of B chromosomes occurred. Among the cytotypes with 2n = 14 two karyotypes from Turkey differed from each other and from the rest in form, position of the nucleolar constriction, and in genome size. The remaining accessions were similar in karyotype shape but three levels of genome size could be discerned, the highest (1C = 7.50 pg) being found on the Iberian Peninsula, an intermediate one on Corsica and Malta, and the lowest (4.27 pg) in the Aegean. The karyotype with 2n = 12 had an intermediate genome size, and that ofP. obtusifolium a relatively low one. Heterochromatin amount was generally low, but some karyotypes showed characteristic banding patterns. The relationship between the chromosome complements with 2n = 14, 12 and 8 is discussed on the basis of idiograms and DNA amounts.The authors respectfully dedicate this papers to emer. o.

The somatic karyotypes of six North AmericanAllium species and the EuropeanA. scorzonerifolium have been investigated using a Giemsa C-banding technique. All species have a chromosome number of 2n = 14. InA. scorzonerifolium and the three North American speciesA. dichlamydeum, A. fibrillum andA. unifolium C-bands are restricted to two pairs of nucleolar chromosomes. Each chromosome has a band proximal to the nucleolar constriction and a positively banded satellite. InA. acuminatum, in addition to the bands associated with the nucleolar constrictions, all chromosomes also have pericentromeric bands.A. cernuum exhibits a distinctive banding style: two chromosome pairs with bands adjacent to the nucleolar constrictions and four pairs with telomeric bands on their short arms. In the karyotype ofA. geyeri neither C-bands nor nucleolar chromosomes were found.—A comparison of the banding styles together with other cytological and morphological characters of these species with old world members ofAllium reveals:A. cernuum closely resembles species within subgenusRhizirideum, whereas the other species studies exhibit many similarities with subgenusMolium. Their sectional grouping and their relationships with Old World species are discussed.  相似文献

Giemsa C-banding allows the differentiation of six, otherwise very similar karyotypes from the small genusAnacyclus. Banding style—with stable centromeric and nucleolar bands, and diverse specific banding patterns in distal chromosome segments—contributes significantly to generic demarcation and systematic grouping. The amount of banding corresponds to heterochromatic chromocentres and increases from perennials to annuals. Relationships with other nucleotype parameters and evolutionary mechanisms are discussed.First contribution of a series on Giemsa Banded Karyotypes, Systematics, and Evolution inAnthemideae (Asteraceae).  相似文献

The Giemsa banding patterns of the standard karyotype of Vicia faba and of four new karyotypes with easily interdistinguishable chromosomes due to interchanges and inversions are described and compared with the data of other authors on preferential Giemsa staining in Vicia faba. All karyotypes contain 14 easily reproducible marker bands which characterize chromosome segments known to be heterochromatic. It is shown that the preferential Giemsa staining of chromosome regions is a valuable tool for the localization of translocation and inversion points in the chromosomes of the reconstructed Vicia karyotypes. A close correlation exists between banding patterns, segment extension by incorporation into chromosomal DNA of azacytidine and mutagen-specific clustering of induced chromatid aberrations in the new karyotypes.  相似文献

Several chromosome types have been recognized in Citrus and related genera by chromomycin A3 (CMA) banding patterns and fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH). They can be used to characterize cultivars and species or as markers in hybridization and backcrossing experiments. In the present work, characterization of six cultivars of P. trifoliata (“Barnes”, “Fawcett”, “Flying Dragon”, “Pomeroy”, “Rubidoux”, “USDA”) and one P. trifoliata × C. limonia hybrid was performed by sequential analyses of CMA banding and FISH using 5S and 45S rDNA as probes. All six cultivars showed a similar CMA+ banding pattern with the karyotype formula 4B + 8D + 6F. The capital letters indicate chromosomal types: B, a chromosome with one telomeric and one proximal band; D, with only one telomeric band; F, without bands. In situ hybridization labeling was also similar among cultivars. Three chromosome pairs displayed a closely linked set of 5S and 45S rDNA sites, two of them co-located with the proximal band of the B type chromosomes (B/5S-45S) and the third one co-located with the terminal band of a D pair (D/5S-45S). The B/5S-45S chromosome has never been found in any citrus accessions investigated so far. Therefore, this B chromosome can be used as a marker to recognize the intergeneric Poncirus × Citrus hybrids. The intergeneric hybrid analyzed here displayed the karyotype formula 4B + 8D + 6F, with two chromosome types B/5S-45S and two D/5S-45S. The karyotype formula and the presence of two B/5S-45S chromosomes clearly indicate that the plant investigated is a symmetric hybrid. It also demonstrates the suitability of karyotype analyses to differentiate zygotic embryos or somatic cell fusions involving trifoliate orange germplasm. During the submission of this paper, we analyzed 25 other citrus cultivars with the same methodology and we found that the chromosome marker reported here can indeed distinguish Poncirus trifoliata from grapefruits, pummelos, and one variegated access of Citrus, besides the previously reported access of limes, limons, citrons, and sweet-oranges. However, among 14 mandarin cultivars, two of them displayed a single B/5S-45S chromosome, whereas in Citrus hystrix D.C., a far related species belonging to the Papeda subgenus, this chromosome type was found in homozygosis. Since these two mandarin cultivars are probably of hybrid origin, we assume that for almost all commercial cultivars and species of the subgenus Citrus this B type chromosome is a useful genetic marker.  相似文献

The chromatin structure of six diploids species ofCostus was analysed using conventional Giemsa staining, C-banding and DAPI/CMA fluorochromes. The interphase nuclei in all the species show an areticulate structure and the prophase chromosomes show large blocks of proximal condensed chromatin. After banding procedures, each chromosome exhibits only centromeric dot-like DAPI+/CMA C-bands whereas the satellites (one pair at each karyotype) are weakly stained after C-banding and show a DAPI/CMA+ fluorescence. Two chromocentres show bright fluorescence with CMA and weak staining after C-banding whereas the others chromocentres show only a small fraction of DAPI+ heterochromatin. These results were interpreted to mean that the greater part of the condensed chromatin has an euchromatic nature whereas two types of well localized heterochromatin occur in a small proportion. The Z-stage analysis suggests that heterochromatin and condensed euchromatin decondense at different times. The chromosome number and morphology of all species are given and the implications of the condensed euchromatin are discussed.Dedicated to Prof.Elisabeth Tschermak-Woess on the occasion of her 70th birthday.  相似文献

The fluorochrome and Giemsa chromosome banding patterns and the Ag-NOR histochemical staining ofSinapis alba are described. Two major types of heterochromatin can be distinguished, one of which contains GC-rich DNA. The observations are discussed as they relate to the known satellite DNAs ofS. alba. — A simple air-drying technique for producing spreads of plant mitotic chromosomes is presented. Different materials and staining techniques were tested showing that the method has wide applications.Dedicated in gratitude to Prof. DrElisabeth Tschermak-Woess on the occasion of her 70th birthday.  相似文献

Chromosome structure and chromatin organisation of a two-chromosome model cereal Zingeria biebersteiniana (Claus) P. Smirnov were studied: nuclear DNA content was determined by microdensitometric analysis after Feulgen staining; Feulgen absorption at different thresholds of absorbance in interphase nuclei also provided evidence on the organisation of chromatin, allowing quantitative estimation of condensed chromatin within interphasic nucleus. The DNA methylation pattern of Z. biebersteiniana metaphase chromosomes was examined with a specific monoclonal antibody. 5-methyl-cytosine residues are present in several chromosome sites and differences may be present between corresponding regions of homologues. Chromosome banding pattern reveals large bands in the centromeric regions of each chromosome, showing constitutive heterochromatin; by fluorochromes staining pericentromeric blocks are evidenced. After the cold and 9-aminoacridine pre-treatments and after aceto-carmine and aceto-orceine staining, respectively, the metaphase chromosomes were analysed by image analysis system revealing a segmentation of the chromosome body that resembles Giemsa/Reverse banding in animal chromosomes. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.  相似文献

Fluorochrome chromosome banding is applied for the first time to 15 samples of five cultivatedCapsicum species, all with 2n = 24, and allows a detailed analysis of the karyotypes (Tables 2–3, Fig. 8). Banding patterns differ between cytotypes, species and groups, reflecting the dynamics of chromosomal differentiation and evolutionary divergence. Taxa have from 1 to 4 NOR-bearing satellited chromosome pairs and exhibit increasing numbers of terminal (rarely intercalary and indistinct centromeric) heterochromatic fluorescent bands. Amounts of heterochromatin (expressed in % of karyotype length) increase from the group withC. annuum (1.80–2.88),C. chinense (3.91–5.52), andC. frutescens (5.55) toC. baccatum (7.30–7.56), and finally toC. pubescens (18.95). In all taxa CMA+DAPI—(GC-rich) constitutive heterochromatin dominates, onlyC. pubescens has an additional CMAo DAPI+ (AT-rich) band. The fluorochrome bands generally (but not completely) correspond to the Giemsa C-bands. Structural heterozygosity can be demonstrated but is not prominent. The independent origin of at least three evolutionary lines leading to the cultivated taxa ofCapsicum is supported.Chromosome studies inCapsicum (Solanaceae), V.

Fluorochrome C-banding ofPinus radiata andP. taeda metaphase chromosomes showed many pericentromeric DAPI bands and interstitial CMA bands inP. radiata, and centromeric and interstitial CMA bands inP. taeda. Giemsa C-band patterns differed between the species with centromeric bands inP. radiata but no consistent bands inP. taeda. A karyotype ofP. radiata was developed based on banding patterns that distinguished all but two of the 12 pairs of chromosomes. In situ hybridization (ISH) using probes for high-copy ribosomal DNA (rDNA) showed 10 pairs of 18S–25S sites and two pairs of 5S sites in both species. Most of the sites were interstitial or centromeric.  相似文献

The chromosomal complement of Cobitis taenia was analysed by replication banding techniques to determine whether there were specific patterns that could allow distinction of the different chromosomes. The diploid chromosome number of 2n = 48 is diagnostic of this species. In vivo 5-bromodeoxyuridine (5-BrdU) incorporation induced highly reproducible replication bands. Most of the chromosome pairs were distinguishable on the base of their banding patterns. The karyotype, consisting of five pairs of metacentrics, nine pairs of submetacentrics and 10 pairs of subtelocentrics and acrocentrics, was confirmed. C-banding and replication banding patterns were compared, and heterochromatin was both early and later replicating. C-positive heterochromatin in centromeric regions was mainly early replicating, but that located in pericentromeric regions was late replicating. Most of the late-replicating regions found interstitially were C-band negative. The results obtained so far for combined chromosomal staining methods of C. taenia and other Cobitis fish species are discussed.  相似文献

Guatteria, Guatteriopsis, Guatteriella andHeteropetalum share the same conspicuous pollen type which is new for theSpermatophyta. It is zonoaperturate with a folded aperture region and an extremely reduced exine. First chromosome counts and karyotype analyses forGuatteriopsis (4 species investigated) andGuatteriella (1 species) are identical with those ofGuatteria (19 species seen): 2n = 28. The genome is characterized by diploidization and partly telocentric chromosomes. Sequentially Giemsa C- and fluorochrome banded chromosomes and interphase nuclei are described. The cuticular folding pattern is distinct forHeteropetalum only. Growth forms and ecology are reported for many species. The evolutionary pattern of theGuatteria group is discussed and compared with other genera and families.  相似文献

The widely distributedAllium ericetorum and the local endemic of the Steiner Alps (Slovenia),A. kermesinum, are two closely related species of sect.Rhizirideum, whose main distinguishing character is perianth colour. To obtain further evidence for species separation, karyotype morphology and C-banding patterns were examined in 10 populations. The chromosome number was 2n = 16. In some populations ofA. ericetorum a B-chromosome occurred. Arm and satellite lengths and C-banding patterns were subjected to cluster analysis. Three different karyotype classes were observed and described. Karyotypes did not clearly discriminate between plants with different colours of perianth segments and therefore did not provide evidence for a taxonomic separation ofA. ericetorum and A. kermesinum. There is polymorphism in number and patterns of C-bands within the populations. No correlation between B-chromosomes and particular banding patterns was observed.  相似文献

Air-dried chromosomes of rye when stained with aqueous silver nitrate show differential banding patterns. In addition to staining the NOR sites, the silver nitrate stains all regions of constitutive heterochromatin, as identified by Giemsa C-banding, as well as a number of small interstitial regions. However, the heterochromatin on the B chromosome is not stained by the silver method. This is proposed as a rapid and reliable banding method.  相似文献

The somatic karyotypes of 10 taxa belonging toAllium subgen.Molium (Liliaceae) from the Mediterranean area have been investigated using Giemsa C-band and fluorochrome (Hoechst, Quinacrine) banding techniques. A wide range of banding patterns has been revealed. InAllium moly (2n = 14),A. oreophilum (2n = 16) andA. paradoxum (2n = 16) C-banding is restricted to a region on each side of the nucleolar organisers and the satellites show reduced fluorescence with fluorochromes. The satellites are also C-banded and with reduced fluorescence inA. triquetrum (2n = 18), but two other chromosome pairs also have telomeric bands which are not distinguished by fluorochrome treatment. InA. erdelii (2n = 16) 4 pairs of metacentric chromosomes have telomeric C-bands while 2 pairs of telocentric chromosomes have centromeric C-banding. InA. subhirsutum (2n = 14),A. neapolitanum (2n = 28),A. trifoliatum subsp.hirsutum (2n = 14) andA. trifoliatum subsp.trifoliatum (2n = 21) chromosomes with long centromeres, consisting of a centromere and nucleolar organiser are positively C-banded on each side of the constriction. InA. subhirsutum banding is confined to the pair of chromosomes with this feature, whereas inA. neapolitanum one additional chromosome pair has telomeric bands and inA. trifoliatum there are varying numbers of chromosomes with centromeric and telomeric bands, depending on the subspecies.A. zebdanense (2n = 18) shows no C-bands. The banding patterns in this subgenus are compared with those recorded for otherAllium species and with the sectional divisions in the genus. Evidence from the banding patterns for allopolyploidy inA. trifoliatum subsp.trifoliatum andA. neapolitanum is discussed.  相似文献

Chromosomal polymorphism for a Robertsonian fission-fusion element is present in the karyotype of the owl monkey species Aotus griseimembra Elliot 1912. Giemsa banding reveals the homology of the chromosomes in the Robertsonian element—a large median chromosome equivalent to a large terminal and large subterminal chromosome.  相似文献

Summary The barley standard karyotype, two reconstructed karyotypes with all chromosomes interdistinguishable, and four translocation lines were treated with maleic hydrazide. A specific chromosomal site in satellite chromosome 7 (segment 44 adjacent to the nucleolus organizer region) of the standard karyotype was found to represent a deletion hot spot. A sample of specifically reconstructed karyotypes were used to check whether or not transposition of the hot spot region, or changes of its neighborhood, would affect its involvement in deletions. One of the seven karyotypes (translocation line T 505 with a pair of chromosomes having both nucleolus organizer regions and satellites in opposite arms) was without deletion clustering in segment 44. At the same time, a prominent Giemsa band close to the secondary constriction was absent from segment 44. These data show that the involvement in deletions of a certain chromosome segment is modifiable in certain cases by chromosome reconstruction. Similar observations have been made in Vicia faba.  相似文献
