We describe the C-bands in the karyotypes of Lagothrix lagothricha cana, Cebus apella and Cebus capucinus. The C-banding patterns show both a high degree of polymorphism as well as the presence of terminal and interstitial C-bands. Varying amounts of heterochromatin result in dimorphism of some chromosome pairs. The high incidence of chromosome rearrangements found in the Cebidae may be due to the presence of terminal and interstitial C-bands. 相似文献

The lampbrush chromosomes of the long-toed salamander, Ambystoma macrodactylum Baird, have been analysed and a map of the oocyte genome prepared. The location of C-bands and cold-induced-constrictions has been established in mitotic chromosomes and compared with the location of marker structures and chiasmata in several lampbrush bivalents. In the lampbrush chromosomes, C-bands are tentatively correlated with sphere-organizing loci and with regions of low chiasma frequency; cold-induced-constrictions are tentatively correlated with regions of high chiasma frequency. In general, in this salamander, C-bands do not coincide in position with cold-induced-constrictions. We have compared our results with those obtained by Callan (1966) in his investigation of chromosomes of the axolotl, Ambystoma mexicanum, and we present an analysis of the similarities and differences that are visible in the chromosome sets of these two ambystomatid species. 相似文献

A 537 bp Taq 1 restriction fragment was cloned from the satellite-1 DNA of the Dee Why population of Atractomorpha similis from New South Wales. Tritiumlabelled-cRNA copies of this sat-1 probe, or else of a related Sau3A fragment from the same source, were used as in situ hybridisation probes to characterise the molecular organisation of the distal C-bands, which form a permanent and distinctive feature of the chromosomes of this species. Both probes were shown to be uniformly represented throughout all the distal C-bands not only of the Dee Why population itself but additionally in two other Australian populations where the bands are either less numerous (Fraser Island, Queensland) or smaller in size (Fogg Dam, Northern Territory). The same result was found in a population from Morehead, Papua New Guinea, which has a banding pattern similar to that of Fogg Dam. This holds whether the bands are single or multiple, terminal or subterminal. The probes were, however, consistently absent from all the proximal C-bands, whether centric or paracentromeric, as well as from the short arms which are sometimes present in the otherwise telocentric chromosomes. The results show that all the distal C-bands contain tandem blocks of highly repeated DNA from the same family of sequences. Moreover, the numerous polymorphisms which are present in the distal bands of all ten members of the basic mitotic set can be accounted for by differences in the amount of the sat-1 DNA present in a given pair of homologues. Since there is evidence to indicate that the size of the distal C-bands has increased subsequent to the introduction of the species into Australia there are good grounds for concluding that this increase has involved the amplification of the highly repeated sequence DNA present within the C-bands. 相似文献

Male Nabis (Aspilaspis) indicus (St?l), N. (A.) viridulus Spinola, Himacerus (Himacerus) mirmicoides (O. Costa) (2n=32+XY) and Prostemma guttula (Fabricius) (2n=26+XY) were studied using C-banding, silver nitrate staining and base-specific fluorochrome (DAPI and CMA(3)) staining. N. indicus differed from N. viridulus in distribution pattern of C-bands, which were telomeric in the former while interstitial in the latter. H. mirmicoides showed interstitial C-bands in the majority of autosomes. P. guttula had no conspicuous C-bands in other chromosomes, but only in the Y, which was totally heterochromatic. C-heterochromatin was labelled with DAPI, indicating that it was AT-rich. In every species, both X and Y chromosomes were NOR-bearing, and the NOR regions were GC-rich. In H.mirmicoides and P. guttula, NORs showed sub-median location in the X and distal in the Y, such a pattern being probably common in Nabidae. The present paper provides new information on the genome organization and new cytological markers useful for a better insight into karyotype evolution of nabid species. 相似文献

All subspecies of black rats (Rattus rattus) used in the present study are characterized by having large and clear C-bands at the centromeric region. The appearance of the bands, however, is different in the subspecies. Chromosome pair No. 1 in Asian type black rats (2n=42), which are characterized by an acrocentric and subtelocentric polymorphism, showed C-band polymorphism. In Phillipine rats (R. rattus mindanensis) the pair was subtelocentric with C-bands, but in Malayan black rats (R. rattus diardii) it was usually acrocentric with C-bands. In Hong-Kong (R. rattus flavipectus) and Japanese black rats (R. rattus tanezumi) it was polymorphic with respect to the presence of acrocentrics with C-bands or subtelocentrics without C-bands. The other chromosomes pairs showed clear C-bands, but in Hong-Kong black rats the pairs No. 2 and 5 were polymorphic with and without C-bands. In Japanese black rats, 6 chromosome pairs (No. 3, 4, 7, 9, 11 and 13) were polymorphic in regard to presence and absence of C-bands, but the other 5 chromosome pairs (No. 2, 5, 6, 8 and 10) showed always absence of C-bands. Only pair No. 12 usually showed C-bands. C-bands in small metacentric pairs (No. 14 to 20) in Asian type black rats generally large in size, but those in the Oceanian (2n=38) and Ceylon type black rats (2n=40) were small. In the hybrids between Asian and Oceanian type rats, heteromorphic C-bands, one large and the other small, were observed. Based on the consideration of karyotype evolution in the black rats, the C-band is suggested to have a tendency toward the diminution as far as the related species are concerned. 相似文献

Three highly repetitive DNA components — the common cetacean component, the heavy (GC-rich) satellite and the light (AT-rich) satellite — were studied in the blue whale. Consensus sequences of the common component and the heavy satellite were determined on the basis of three repeats of the common component and eight repeats of the heavy satellite. The tandemly organized common cetacean component, which comprises a large portion of all cetacean — both odontocete (toothed whale) and mysticete (whalebone whale) — genomes has a repeat length of 1,760 bp and the three clones analysed showed a high degree of conformity. The repeat contains a 72 bp sequence with dyad symmetry and striking intrastrand complementarity. The rest of the repeat comprises a unique sequence. The repeat unit of the heavy satellite of the blue whale is 422 bp. Also this component is tandemly organized. About half the length of the repeat constitutes a unique sequence and the other half is made up of subrepeats with TTAGGG as a frequent motif. The light satellite has not been sequenced and its basic repeat unit has not yet been identified. The chromosomal localization of the three components was determined by in situ hybridization using 3H-labelled cloned fragments as probes. The common cetacean component was located in most interstitial and terminal C-bands. The heavy satellite occurred primarily in terminal C-bands. When the two components hybridized to the same terminal C-bands, the localization of the heavy satellite was distal to that of the common cetacean component. Neither component shared localization with the light satellite which is located in centromeric C-bands in just a few chromosome pairs. 相似文献

To determine if interphase chromocentres are fully equivalent to mitotic C-bands in plants, their times of replication have been compared in the large genome (1C=35 pg) ofLilium henryi. Nuclei of the root-tip cortex were pulse labelled with3H-thymidine and labelling patterns carefully followed in semi-thin sections during a 12 h chase period. Chromocentres decondense and replicate in the later stages of S-phase, after euchromatin has completed its replication. Late-replicating regions, reflecting a portion of the chromocentric material, were then mapped in mitotic chromosomes and found to be localized to the sub-distal and distal regions of all long chromosome arms. Most of the chromatin in these regions is non C-banded and, further, not all C-bands are located here. Some of the 11 inter-calary and 2 nucleolar C-bands are found in earlier replicating regions, as are the 12 centric bands. ThereforeLilium C-bands do not all replicate at the end of S-phase. Chromocentres occupy 17–18% of interphase nuclear volume while C-bands make up only 3.7% of the area of mitotic chromosomes. We conclude thatLilium chromocentres contain much other chromatin in addition to C-bands, and therefore that chromocentres and C-bands cannot be universally equated. 相似文献

Chiasmata in male meiosis of Allium flavum from early diplotene to metaphase I are found to occur almost exclusively very close to the terminal and intercalary C-bands. Heterozygosity of intercalary C-bands, where one homologue has one band missing, allows the direct proof that chiasmata do not terminalise and therefore mark the point of exchange. 相似文献

Summary Wheat chromosomes of the primary winter hexaploid and octoploid triticales and of the parental durum and common wheat varieties were studied using morphometric analysis. The size of some heterochromatic segments was shown to change in triticale. Telomeric and intercalary C-bands both increased and decreased in size whereas centromeric bands only increased. The size variability of C-bands in triticale B-genome chromosomes decreased in most of the cases and increased only for several specific C-bands. The C-bands of homologous B-genome chromosomes changed in the same direction in both triticale forms. The changes in size of the C-bands found in R-genome chromosomes detected earlier in these triticale forms (Badaeva et al. 1986) were shown to coincide in their pattern with the size changes of C-bands in homeological B-genome chromosomes. Our data are indicative of regular, directed chromosomal changes in the triticale karyotype. 相似文献

Even in cases in which C-bands are intercalary in chromosomes of Allium carinatum and A. flavum. chiasmata are formed in immediately adjacent regions. This argues against considerations that there exists merely a spatial proximity between the commonly found distal chiasmata and the C-bands in corresponding regions, without any causal relation. Furthermore, a closely related species, A. sipyleum, without distinctly visible C-bands has a much less localized chiasma distribution in its bivalents. 相似文献

Three families of tandemly repetitive DNA from Crepis capillaris were cloned and characterized. Data obtained from in situ hybridization indicate that these families are located mainly in the heterochromatic C-bands. The pCcH32 family hybridizes at the paracentromeric C-band of the NOR (nucleolus-organized region) chromosome and along most of the long arm of the same chromosome. The pCcD29 family is located in all the remaining C-bands of the karyotype, while the third family, pCcE9, is restricted to the more proximal C-bands. Nucleotide sequence comparisons between one cloned repeating unit from each DNA family showed some significant regions of homology between the families. We discuss the sequence relationships between the three DNA families and the significance of our data in relation to models of heterochromatin evolution, emphasizing the concepts of equilocality and the differentiation of the NOR-bearing chromosome. We also examine the possible role that chromosome disposition, in either mitotic or meiotic nuclei, plays in the distribution and homogenization of heterochromatic DNA sequences. 相似文献

Karyotypes of males of cicadas Tibicen bihamatus (Motschulski) and Platypleura kuroiwae Matsumura were studied using C-banding technique. In Tibicen bihamatus two types of C-band distribution were observed. Two chromosome pairs have C-bands at one of the chromosome ends, while in the other, including the sex chromosome, C-heterochromatin blocks occurred at both ends. Platypleura kuroiwae has a smaller amount of C-heterochromatin located as small subterminal blocks. The intercalar C-bands were seen in the early spermatogonial metaphase chromosomes. 相似文献

A comparative analysis of structural variability of C-bands on chromosomes 1, 9, 16 and Y was conducted in 50 phenotypically normal adults and 25 couples with repeated spontaneous abortions. Reduction of both the total amount of heterochromatin in the cell and the lengths of these regions on chromosomes 1, 9, and 16 is revealed in the group of pathology. No differences were found in the lengths of C-bands on Y chromosome. 相似文献

The karyotype,including G- and C-banding patterns,of the pigmy hog Sus (Porcula) salvanius (Suidae,Mammalia) 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
The diploid chromosome number in the pigmy hog Sus (Porcula) salvanius is 38, the karyotype looking almost identical to that of the domestic pig (S. scrofa) and those wild pigs (S. scrofa) with 2n=38 chromosomes. However, the telocentric chromosomes of the pigmy hog have one or more extra G-bands at, or close to the centromere, and C-bands which are larger than the C-bands in the corresponding chromosomes of the domestic pig.It is argued that the basic chromosome number in the genus Sus is 38 rather than 36. The cytogenetic data are discussed in relation to the taxonomy of the pigmy hog. 相似文献

The chromosomes derived from the Japanese population of Gryllus bimaculatus were characterized by C-banding and Ag-NOR staining. The chromosome number, 2n = 28 + XX (female)/XO (male), corresponded with that of other populations of G. bimaculatus, but the chromosome configuration in idiograms varied between the populations. NORs were carried on one pair of autosomes and appeared polymorphous. The positive C-bands located at the centromere of all chromosomes and the distal regions of many chromosome pairs, and the size and the distribution pattern of the distal C-heterochromatin showed differences among the chromosomes. In addition, this paper reports on the characteristics of HindIII satellite DNA isolated from the genome of G. bimaculatus. The HindIII repetitive fragments were about 0.54 kb long, and localized at the distal C-bands of the autosomes and the interstitial C-bands of the X chromosome. Molecular analysis showed two distinct satellite DNA sequences, named the GBH535 and GBH542 families, with high AT contents of about 67 and 66%, respectively. The two repetitive families seem to be derived from a common ancestral sequence, and both families possessed the same 13-bp palindrome sequence. The results of Southern blot hybridization suggest that the sequence of the GBH535 family is conserved in the genomic DNAs of Gryllus species, whereas the GBH542 family is a species-specific sequence. 相似文献

The chromosomes of the chimpanzee were stained with distamycin A/DAPI, which labels specific C-bands. Bright distamycin A/DAPI fluorescence was found in the heterochromatic regions of chromosomes 6, 11, 14 to 16, 18 to 20, and 23 and the Y. Lymphocyte cultures from chimpanzees were treated with low doses of 5-azacytidine during the last hours of culture. This cytosine analog induces highly distinct undercondensations in 28 heterochromatic regions of 19 chromosomes. These 5-azacytidine-sensitive regions are predominantly located in the terminal C-bands of the chromosomes. In vitro treatment with 5-azacytidine also preserves into the metaphase stage somatic pairings between the 5-azacytidine-sensitive heterochromatic regions in interphase nuclei. The homologies and differences regarding the chromosomal localization of distamycin A/DAPI-bright C-bands, 5-azacytidine-sensitive heterochromatin, 5-methylcytosine-rich DNA sequences, and satellite DNAs in the chimpanzee and man are discussed. 相似文献

金沙江中游地区红山茶组植物的Giemsa C-带研究 总被引:3,自引:1,他引:2
研究了金沙江中游地区红山茶组植物的GiemsaC-带。该地区的红山茶植物以四倍体为主,个别居群为二倍体或六倍体。居群间的C-带差异明显,C-带多出现在染色体端部。在四倍体和六倍体的C-带带型中,只能找到2条显相同C-带的同源染色体,通过与其它地区的红山茶植物进行比较,发现红山茶组植物的倍性从华东,华南经贵州,四川向云南逐渐增高,显C-带的染色体与染色体总数之比随信性增加而减少。文中指出华东或华南可能是红山茶组植物的起源地,而金沙江中游地区是其现代分化中心,这一地区红山茶的多倍体类群可能是异源起源的。 相似文献
