Chromosomal Distribution of the 18S-5.8S-26S rDNA Loci and Heterogeneity of Nuclear ITS Regions in Thinopyrum intermedium （Poaceae： Triticeae）

Fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) was used to investigate the chromosomal location of 18S-5.8S-26S rDNA loci in Thinopyrum intermedium (Host) Barkworth et Dewey (2n=6x=42). In all accessions and individuals studied, 3 or 4 pairs of major loci were detected. Subsequent genomic in situhybddization (GISH) analyses revealed that one pair was located on the ends of the short arms of one pair of homologous chromosomes of the St genome, while the other 2 or 3 pairs of major loci were located in the E genomes (including the E^o and E^b). It is suggested that 2 to 3 pairs of major loci were probably lost during the evolution of this hexaploid species. The variation in rDNA positions and copy numbers between the diploid donors and Th. interrnedium, as well as the diversity among the accessions of Th. intermedium confirmed that the rDNA gene family conveyed the characters of DNA mobile elements. The internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions of the rDNA in Th. intermedium were also investigated. Sequence data of seven positive clones from one individual suggested high degree of individual heterogeneity exists among ITS repeats. Phylogenetic analyses showed that there were two distinct types of ITS sequences in Th. intermedium, one with homology to that of Pseudoroegneria species (St genome) and the other to that of the E genome diploid species. This showed that the ITS paralogues in Th. intermedium have not been uniformly homogenized by concerted evolution. The limitation of using the chromosomal location of rDNA loci for phylogenetic analysis is discussed.     

Physical localization of the 18S-5.8S-26S rDNA and sequence analysis of ITS regions in Thinopyrum ponticum (Poaceae: Triticeae): implications for concerted evolution

Fluorescence in situ hybridization was used in Thinopyrum ponticum, a decaploid species, and its related diploid species, to investigate the distribution of the 18S-5.8S-26S rDNA. The distribution of rDNA was similar in all three diploid species (Th. bessarabicum, Th. elongatum and Pseudoroegneria stipifolia). Two pairs of loci were observed in each somatic cell at metaphase and interphase. One pair was located near the terminal end and the other in the interstitial regions of the short arms of one pair of chromosomes. However, all of the major loci in Th. ponticum were located on the terminal end of the short arms of chromosomes, and one chromosome had only one major locus. The maximum number of major loci detected on metaphase spreads was 20, which was the sum of that of its progenitors. The interstitial loci that exist in the possible diploid genome donor species were probably 'lost' during the evolutionary process of the decaploid species. A number of minor loci were also detected on whole regions of two pairs of homologous chromosomes. These results suggested that the position of rDNA loci in the Triticeae might be changeable rather than fixed. Positional changes of 18S-5.8S-26S rDNA loci between Th. ponticum and its candidate genome donors indicate that it is almost impossible to find a genome in the polyploid species that is completely identical to that of its diploid donors. The possible evolutionary significance of the distribution of the rDNA is also discussed. Internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions of nuclear DNA in Th. ponticum were investigated by PCR amplification and sequencing. The sequence data from five positive clones selected at random, together with restriction site analysis, indicated that the ITS repeated units are nearly homogeneous in this autoallodecapolypoid species. Combined with in situ hybridization results, the data led to the conclusion that the ITS region has experienced interlocus as well as intralocus concerted evolution. Phylogenetic analyses showed that the sequences from Th. ponticum have concerted to the E genome repeat type.     

The use of double fluorescence in situ hybridization to physically map the positions of 5S rDNA genes in relation to the chromosomal location of 18S-5.8S-26S rDNA and a C genome specific DNA sequence in the genus Avena.

A physical map of the locations of the 5S rDNA genes and their relative positions with respect to 18S-5.8S-26S rDNA genes and a C genome specific repetitive DNA sequence was produced for the chromosomes of diploid, tetraploid, and hexaploid oat species using in situ hybridization. The A genome diploid species showed two pairs of rDNA loci and two pairs of 5S loci located on both arms of one pair of satellited chromosomes. The C genome diploid species showed two major pairs and one minor pair of rDNA loci. One pair of subtelocentric chromosomes carried rDNA and 5S loci physically separated on the long arm. The tetraploid species (AACC genomes) arising from these diploid ancestors showed two pairs of rDNA loci and three pairs of 5S loci. Two pairs of rDNA loci and 2 pairs of 5S loci were arranged as in the A genome diploid species. The third pair of 5S loci was located on one pair of A-C translocated chromosomes using simultaneous in situ hybridization with 5S rDNA genes and a C genome specific repetitive DNA sequence. The hexaploid species (AACCDD genomes) showed three pairs of rDNA loci and six pairs of 5S loci. One pair of 5S loci was located on each of two pairs of C-A/D translocated chromosomes. Comparative studies of the physical arrangement of rDNA and 5S loci in polyploid oats and the putative A and C genome progenitor species suggests that A genome diploid species could be the donor of both A and D genomes of polyploid oats. Key words : oats, 5S rDNA genes, 18S-5.8S-26S rDNA genes, C genome specific repetitive DNA sequence, in situ hybridization, genome evolution.     

Phylogenetic and genomic relationships in Setaria italica and its close relatives based on the molecular diversity and chromosomal organization of 5S and 18S-5.8S-25S rDNA genes

We have analyzed the phylogenetic and genomic relationships in the genus Setaria Beauv. including diploid and tetraploid species, by means of the molecular diversity of the 5S rDNA spacer and chromosomal organization of the 5S and 18S-5.8S-25S rDNA genes. PCR amplification of the 5S rDNA sequences gave specific patterns. All the species studied here share a common band of about 340 bp. An additional band of an approximately 300-bp repeat unit was found for Setaria verticillata and the Chinese accessions of Setaria italica and Setaria viridis. An additional band of 450 bp was found in the sole species Setaria faberii. Fluorescent in situ hybridization was used for physical mapping of the 5S and 18S-5.8S-25S rDNA genes and showed that they are localized at two separate loci with no polymorphism of chromosome location among species. Two chromosome pairs carrying the 5S and 18S-5.8S-25S rDNA clusters can now be unambiguously identified using FISH. Phylogenetic trees based on the variation of the amplified 5S rDNA sequences showed a clear separation into four groups. The clustering was dependent on the genomic composition (genome A versus genome B) and confirmed the closest relationship of S. italica and S. viridis accessions from the same geographical region. Our results confirm previous hypotheses on the domestication centers of S. italica. They also show the wide difference between the A and B genomes, and even clarify the taxonomic position of S. verticillata. Received: 28 August 2000 / Accepted: 27 January 2001     

Physical mapping of the 18S-25S and 5S ribosomal RNA genes in diploid bananas

Fluorescent in situ hybridisation (FISH) was used to determine the number and distribution of the 18S-25S and 5S rDNA sites on mitotic chromosomes of 6 wild and 2 edible diploid (2n=22) accessions belonging to the two banana species, Musa acuminata and M. balbisiana. FISH with the 18S-25S probe resulted in signals on one pair of chromosomes, the position of signals corresponded to the secondary constriction at the end of a short arm. The intensity of labelling was different between the homologues and the larger site corresponded to a larger secondary constriction. This labelling pattern was observed consistently in all genotypes. On the other hand, differences in the number of 5S sites were observed between the accessions. While in some of the wild seeded species, the 5S rDNA was localised on two pairs of chromosomes, hybridisation signals appeared on three pairs of chromosomes in other wild accessions. Quite unexpectedly, only five sites of 5S rDNA were reproducibly observed in the two vegetatively propagated diploid edible cultivars, Pisang Mas and Niyarma Yik, evidence for structural heterozygosity. A dual colour FISH showed that in all accessions, the satellite chromosomes carrying the 18S-25S loci did not carry the 5S loci. The results demonstrate that molecular cytogenetics can be applied to Musa and that physical cytogenetic maps can be generated. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Physical mapping of rDNA loci in Brassica species.

The number of major rDNA loci (the genes coding for 18S-5.8S-26S rRNA) was investigated in the economically important Brassica species and their wild relatives by in situ hybridization of an rDNA probe to metaphase chromosomes and interphase nuclei. The diploid species B. nigra (B genome) has two major pairs of rDNA loci, B. oleracea (C genome) has two major pairs and one minor pair of loci, while B. campestris (A genome) has five pairs of loci. Among the three tetraploid species arising from these three diploid ancestors, B. carinata (BBCC genomes) has four loci, B. juncea (AABB genomes) has five major pairs and one minor pair of loci, and B. napus (AACC genomes) has six pairs of loci, indicating that the number of loci has been reduced during evolution. The complexity of the known rDNA restriction fragment length polymorphism patterns gave little indication of number of rDNA loci. It is probable that chromosome rearrangements have occurred during evolution of the amphidiploid species. The data will be useful for physical mapping of genes relative to rDNA loci, micro- and macro-evolutionary studies and analysis of aneuploids including addition and substitution lines used in Brassica breeding programs.     

Physical mapping of repetitive sequences and genome analysis in six Elymus species by in situ hybridization

Genome constitution and genetic relationships between six Elymus species were assessed by physical mapping of different repetitive sequences using a technique of sequential fluorescence in situ hybridization and genomic in situ hybridization.The six Elymus species are all naturally growing species in northwest China,namely,E.sibiricus,E.nutans,E.barystachyus,E.xiningensis,E.excelsus,and E.dahuricus.An StStHH genome constitution was revealed for E.sibiricus and StStHHYY for the remainder species.Each chromosome could be clearly characterized by physical mapping with 18S-26S rDNA,5S rDNA,Afa-family,and AAG repeats,and be allocated to a certain genome by genomic in situ hybridization.Two 5S rDNA sites,each in the H and St genomes,and three 18S-26S rDNA sites,two in the St genome and one in the Y genome,were uncovered in most of the species.The strong Afa-family hybridization signals discriminated the H genome from the St and Y genomes.The H and Y genome carried more AAG repeats than St.A common non-Robertsonian reciprocal translocation between the H and Y genomes was revealed in E.barystachyus,E.xiningensis,E.excelsus and E.dahuricus.Comparison of molecular karyotypes strongly suggests that they can be classified into three groups,namely,E.sibiricus,E.nutans,and others.     

Ancestry of American polyploid Hordeum species with the I genome inferred from 5S and 18S-25S rDNA

* BACKGROUND AND AIMS: The genus Hordeum exists at three ploidy levels (2x, 4x and 6x) and presents excellent material for investigating the patterns of polyploid evolution in plants. Here the aim was to clarify the ancestry of American polyploid species with the I genome. * METHODS: Chromosomal locations of 5S and 18S-25S ribosomal RNA genes were determined by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). In both polyploid and diploid species, variation in 18S-25S rDNA repeated sequences was analysed by the RFLP technique. * KEY RESULTS: Six American tetraploid species were divided into two types that differed in the number of rDNA sites and RFLP profiles. Four hexaploid species were similar in number and location of both types of rDNA sites, but the RFLP profiles of 18S-25S rDNA revealed one species, H. arizonicum, with a different ancestry. * CONCLUSIONS: Five American perennial tetraploid species appear to be alloploids having the genomes of an Asian diploid H. roshevitzii and an American diploid species. The North American annual tetraploid H. depressum is probably a segmental alloploid combining the two closely related genomes of American diploid species. A hexaploid species, H. arizonicum, involves a diploid species, H. pusillum, in its ancestry; both species share the annual growth habit and are distributed in North America. Polymorphisms of rDNA sites detected by FISH and RFLP analyses provide useful information to infer the phylogenetic relationships of I-genome Hordeum species because of their highly conserved nature during polyploid evolution.
