Secondary Trisomics and Telotrisomics of Rice: Origin, Characterization, and Use in Determining the Orientation of Chromosome Map

Secondary trisomics and telotrisomics representing the 12 chromosomes of rice were isolated from the progenies of primary trisomics. A large population of each primary trisomic was grown. Plants showing variation in gross morphology compared to the primary trisomics and disomic sibs were selected and analyzed cytologically at diakinesis and pachytene. Secondary trisomics for both arms of chromosomes 1, 2, 6, 7 and 11 and for one arm of chromosomes 4, 5, 8, 9 and 12 were identified. Telotrisomics for short arm of chromosomes 1, 8, 9 and 10 and for long arms of chromosomes 2, 3 and 5 were isolated. These secondary and telotrisomics were characterized morphologically and for breeding behavior. Secondary trisomics 2n + 1S.1S, 2n + 1L.1L, 2n + 2S.2S, 2n + 2L.2L, 2n + 6S.6S, 2n + 6L.6L and 2n + 7L.7L are highly sterile, and 2n + 1L.1L, 2n + 2L.2L and 2n + 7L.7L do not set any seed even upon backcrossing. Telotrisomics are fertile and vigorous. Genetic segregation of 43 marker genes was studied in the F(2) or backcross progenies. On the basis of segregation data, these genes were delimited to specific chromosome arms. Correct orientation of 10 linkage groups was determined and centromere positions on nine linkage groups were approximated. A revised linkage map of rice is presented.     

Estimating meiotic chromosome pairing and recombination parameters in telocentric trisomics.

Telocentric trisomics (telotrisomics; one arm of a metacentric chromosome present in addition to two complete genomes) are used in theoretical studies of pairing affinities and chiasma formation in competitive situations and applied in genome analysis, gene localization, gene transfer, and breakage of close linkages. These applications require knowledge of the recombination characteristics of telotrisomics. Appropriate cytological and molecular markers and favorable chromosome morphology are not always available or applicable for quantitative analyses. We developed new mathematical models for extracting the maximum information from simple metaphase I observations. Two types of telotrisomics of the short arm of chromosome 1R of rye (Secale cereale), including several genotypes, were used as test material. In simple telotrisomics, pairing between morphologically identical complete chromosomes was more frequent than pairing between the telocentric and either of the normal chromosomes. In the telocentric substitution, morphologically identical telocentrics paired less frequently with each other than either one with the normal chromosome. Pairing partner switch was significant. Interaction between the two arms was variable. Variation within plants was considerable. Telotrisomics without markers are suitable for analyzing pairing preferences, for gene localization and gene transfer, and for breaking tight linkages, but less so for genome analysis.     

Cytological identification of an isotetrasomic in rice and its application to centromere mapping

The aneuploid with isochromosome or telochromosome is ideal material for exploring the position of centromere in lingkage map.For obtaining these aneuploids in rice,the primary trisomics from triplo-1 to triplo-12 and the aneuploids derived from a triploid of indica rice variety Zhongxiao 3037 were carefully investigated.From the offsprings of triplo-10,a primary trisomic of chromosome 10 of the variety,an isotetrasomic “triplo-10-1” was obtained.Cytological investigation revealed that a pair of extra isochromosomes of triplo-10-1 were come from the short arm of chromosome 10.In the offsprings of the isotetrasomic,a secondary trisomic “triplo-10-2”,in which the extra-chromosome was an isochromosome derived from the short arm of chromosome 10,was identified.With the isotetrasomic,secondary trisomic,primary trisomic and diploid of variety Zhongxiao 3037,different molecular markers were used for exploring the position of the centromere of chromosome 10.Based on the DNA dosage effect,it was verified that the molecular markers G1125,G333 and L169 were Located on the short arm,G1084 and other 16 available molecular markers were on the long arm of chromosome 10.So the centromere of chromosome 10 was located somewhere between G1125 and G1084 according to the RFLP linkage map given by Kurata et al[1].The distance from G1125 to G1084 was about 3.2cM.     

Aneuhaploids and tetrasomics in rice (Oryza sativa L.) derived from anther culture of trisomics.

Eight types of aneuhaploids (Aneuhaplo 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12) and eight types of tetrasomics (Tetraplo 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, and 12) of rice have been obtained from anther culture of trisomics. This paper reports the plant morphology of these aneuploids and their chromosome behavior at metaphase I. Aneuhaploids for different chromosomes are distinguishable from each other and are morphologically similar to the parental trisomics, suggesting that the extra chromosome has similar genetic effects on plant morphology at the haploid level as at the diploid level. Similarly, tetrasomics with different extra chromosomes are distinguishable from each other and are similar morphologically to the parental trisomic. However, stronger changes in morphological characters were observed in tetrasomics compared with trisomics having the same extra chromosome, as a result of a dosage effect of the extra chromosomes. Comparing plant size between aneuhaploid, tetrasomic, and trisomic with the same extra chromosome, it was shown that the trisomic was the largest, the tetrasomic was of medium size, and the aneuhaploid was the smallest, except for those plants with an extra chromosome 8 in which plant size is dramatically decreased in both the aneuhaploid and the tetrasomic. At metaphase I, aneuhaploids showed chromosome configurations of 1 II + 11 I and 13 I. The frequency of the 1 II + 11 I configuration is higher than 70%, indicating that homologous chromosomes in aneuhaploids tend to stay associated in meiosis. Intragenome chromosome pairing (2 II + 9 I), so called secondary association, was observed in the aneuhaploid for chromosome 5. Tetrasomic plants showed 5 kinds of chromosome configurations: 1 IV + 11 II, 1 III + 11 II + 1 I, 13 II, 12 II + 2 I, and 11 II + 4 I. A chromosome configuration of 13 II was often observed in tetrasomics with shorter extra chromosomes and a chromosome configuration of 1 IV + 11 II was often observed in tetrasomics with longer extra chromosomes. Aneuhaploids had complete seed sterility. Tetrasomics showed very poor pollen fertility and complete seed sterility, except for a few shriveled seeds that were observed in Tetraplo 6 and 9. This is the first report in rice where many aneuhaploids and tetrasomics have been characterized. This information will help to further unravel rice aneuploidy and cytogenetics. The aneuploids obtained here will be very useful tools for the study of genetics and breeding in rice.     

Epigenetic control may explain large within-plant heterogeneity of meiotic behavior in telocentric trisomics of rye

In telocentric trisomics (telotrisomics) of organisms in which the chromosomes normally have two distinct arms, a single chromosome arm with a centromere is present in addition to a complete diploid set of chromosomes. It is the simplest form of polysomy and suitable for analyzing meiotic pairing and recombination patterns in situations where chromosomes compete for pairing. When no suitable meiotic chromosome markers are available, four metaphase I configurations can be distinguished. Their relative frequencies are indicative of the pairing and recombination patterns. In short arm (1RS) telotrisomics of chromosome 1R of rye (Secale cereale) we observed great differences in pairing and recombination patterns among spikes from different tillers and clones of the same plants. Anthers within spikes were only very rarely different. We analyzed a large number of genotypes, including inbreds as well as hybrids. The effects of genetic and environmental conditions on heterogeneity, if any, were limited. Considering that the reproductive tissue of a spike is derived from one primordial cell, it seems that at the start of sexual differentiation there was variation among cells in chromosomal control, which at meiosis determines pairing and crossing-over competence. We suggest that it is an epigenetic system that rigidly maintains this pattern through generative differentiation. In competitive situations the combination most competent for pairing will pair preferentially, forming specific meiotic configurations with different frequencies for different spikes of the same plant. This would explain the heterogeneity between spikes and the homogeneity within spikes. The epigenetic system could involve chromatin conformation or DNA methylation. There were no signs of heterochromatinization.     

Tertiary trisomics in the garden pea as a model of B chromosome evolution in plants

It is hypothesized that, in plants, genetically empty B chromosomes may originate from the extra chromosome (E) of tertiary trisomics if (i) the region of basic chromosomes homologous to the E (H-region) harbors a sporophytic lethal covered by the wild-type allele in E, and (ii) crossing-over between E and the H-region is suppressed. Under these conditions, most loss-of-function mutations occurring in the H-region are deleterious for haploid gametophytes, whereas those occurring in E are neutral or advantageous for hyperploid (n+1) gametophytes. As a result, natural selection at the gametophyte level can lead to the degeneration of E, leaving the H-region intact. Using Hammarlund translocation T(3-6)a, we synthesized two trisomic lines of the garden pea (Pisum sativum L.), where E was composed of the short arms of chromosomes 3 and 6 and the H-region carried recessive markers. In the trisomic line TRIS, we found few crossovers between E and the H-region. In the trisomic line TRUST, obtained after a change of basic chromosome constitution, recombination in this region was completely suppressed. After induction in the H-region of TRUST of a recessive sporophytic mutation rmv, two 15-chromosome lines of stable trisomics were established. One of them passed 11 generations, having produced more than 6000 individuals, all of them trisomic, and E remained present as a single element with no pairing partners. No tetrasomics were detected in these lines. If such trisomics occurred in nature, their extra chromosomes are likely to become a B chromosome.     

TRISOMIC TRANSMISSION IN CLARKIA UNGUICULATA

Vasek , F. C. (U. California, Riverside.) Trisomic transmission in Clarkia unguiculata. Amer. Jour. Bot. 48(9): 829–833. 1961.—Seven primary trisomic plants derived from a triploid-diploid cross were self-pollinated. The 7 progenies included diploids and trisomics, the latter varying in frequency from 16 to 30%. In addition, 2 of the progenies included tetrasomic plants. Crosses were made between diploids and either trisomics or tetrasomics. The extra chromosome of 1 progeny was readily transmitted through the pollen of trisomic and tetrasomic plants. When a trisomic of the same progeny was used as a seed parent, only diploids and tetrasomics were found among the offspring, indicating a duplication of the extra chromosome. The extra chromosomes of other progenies were not transmitted through either pollen or eggs in controlled diploid-trisomic crosses but trisomics of these progenies were recovered after self-pollination. It is suggested that differential pollen-tube growth precluded transmission to diploid-trisomic hybrids and that under conditions of reduced pollen competition the extra chromosome normally would be transmitted through pollen. The extra chromosomes generally occur as univalents at metaphase and are ordinarily included in telophase nuclei.     

Primary trisomics of rice: origin, morphology, cytology and use in linkage mapping

Twelve primary trisomics of Oryza sativa L. were isolated from the progenies of spontaneous triploids and were transferred by backcrossing to the genetic background of IR36, a widely grown high yielding rice variety. Eleven trisomics can be identified morphologically from one another and from diploids. However, triplo 11 is difficult to distinguish from diploid sibs.—The extra chromosome of each trisomic was identified cytologically at pachytene stage of meiosis, and the chromosomes were numbered according to their length at this stage. The major distinguishing features of each pachytene chromosome were redescribed.—The female transmission rates varied from 15.5% for triplo 1, the longest chromosome, to 43.9% for triplo 12, the shortest chromosome. Seven of the 12 primary trisomics transmitted the extra chromosome through the male. The low level of chromosomal imbalance tolerated by rice and other evidence are interpreted to indicate that this species is a basic diploid.—Genetic segregation for 22 marker genes in the trisomic progenies was studied. Of a possible 264 combinations, involving 22 genes and 12 trisomics, 120 were examined. Marker genes for each of the 12 chromosomes were identified. The results helped establish associations between linkage groups and cytologically identifiable chromosomes of rice for the first time. Relationships between various systems of numbering chromosomes, trisomics, linkage groups and marker genes are described, and a revised linkage map of rice is presented.     

Production and identification of primary trisomics in diploid Agropyron cristatum (crested wheatgrass).

Six of the seven possible primary trisomics in Agropyron cristatum were produced. Based on morphology, arm length ratios, and C-banding patterns, they were identified as primary trisomics for chromosomes A, B, C, D, E, and G. Agropyron cristatum is one of several species constituting the crested wheatgrass complex. All species in this complex contain one basic genome (P). A study was conducted to produce and identify a primary trisomic series that will be used to map genes to individual chromosomes. A population of 157 plants were generated by crossing autotriploids (PPP) with diploid (PP) A. cristatum: 58 were diploid (2n = 14), 76 were primary trisomies (2n = 15), 17 were double trisomic (2n = 16), 4 were triple trisomics (2n = 14 + 3), 1 was telocentric trisomic (2n = 14 + 1 telo), and 1 was tetratrisomic (2n = 14 + 4). Karyotype analysis of acetoorcein-stained chromosomes was carried out using the CHROMPAC III computer program; for analysis of C-banded karyotypes, the computer imaging analysis program PCAS (Plant Chromosome Analysis System) was used to identify the primary trisomics. Of the 47 primary trisomics analyzed, 21 plants had one extra satellited chromosome E, 18 with the satellited D chromosome, 3 each for chromosomes B and G, and 1 each for chromosomes C and A. Chromosome pairing was studied in trisomies B, D, E, and G. Trisomics for chromosomes B and G were similar in their mieotic behavior. Each had a trivalent frequency of about 60% and pollen stainability of less than 40%. Trisomics for chromosomes D and E had a trivalent frequency of about 30% and pollen stainability of over 70%.

Selection of Primary Trisomics from Anther Culture of Autotetraploid Rice (Oryza sativa L.)

The hybrids from different generations of autotetraploid rice (Oryza sativa L. ) and the original autotetraploid rice (indica and japonica) were used for anther culture, and the pollen-plantlets from them were induced. Due to the significant difference on phenotype among the trisomics and between trisomics and diploid, 15 lines of 4390 H1 induced plants were selected for chromosome study. Their PMC meiosis were observed. The results showed that the chromosomes from these plants consisted of 2n, 4n and aneuploids, and their ratios were 88.00%, 5.53% and 6.47% respectively. 272 trisomics from 284 aneuploids were identified, which acounted for 6.20% of all the pollen-plants. According to the special characters from the whole set of trisomics, they were classified as 9 types. The 9124- 7 trisomics were designated as triplo-8 by the pachytene analysis. Sowing the seeds of triplo8, the transmission rate of extra chromosome was calculated at the seedling stage of H2. The rate of trisomic was 34.11% of all plants, the agronomic characters were similar to the H1 parent plants.     

Trisomics from triploid-diploid crosses in self-incompatible Lycopersicum peruvianum

Summary An attempt was carried out to produce trisomics of the wild tomato L. peruvianum, to define their essential features, and to detect relationships between trisomy and the expression of self-compatibility.Triploid-diploid crosses in L. peruvianum yielded nearly 40% aneuploids. Of these, 18% were single trisomics, and the rest had 2, 3 and 4 extra chromosomes. Almost all the trisomics occurred in crosses where the triploid was used as female parent. Vigour and fertility of trisomics were not much different from those of disomics, and morphologically they were very similar.The extra chromosome was identified in three self-compatible trisomic plants through somatic and pachytene chromosome morphology. One of these plants was trisomic for chromosome 1, while the other two were trisomic for chromosome 3. In these trisomics a positive correlation was found between chromosome length and trivalent formation, but no relationship between chromosome length and frequency of laggards was observed.A series of test-crosses revealed that the capacity of the trisomics to produce seed upon selfing always resulted from alterations of the incompatibility phenotype of the style and not from competitive interaction in the pollen. Progeny analyses showed that the self-compatibility features of the trisomics were not transmitted from one generation to the next. The implications of these findings are discussed.This work has been supported by a contract between the European Communities and the CNEN.

Molecular mapping of the centromeres of tomato chromosomes 7 and 9

The centromeres of two tomato chromosomes have been precisely localized on the molecular linkage map through dosage analysis of trisomic stocks. To map the centromeres of chromosomes 7 and 9, complementary telo-, secondary, and tertiary trisomic stocks were used to assign DNA markers to their respective chromosome arms and thus to localize the centromere at the junction of the short and long arms. It was found that both centromeres are situated within a cluster of cosegregating markers. In an attempt to order the markers within the centric clusters, genetic maps of the centromeric regions of chromosomes 7 and 9 were constructed from F₂ populations of 1620Lycopersicon esculentum × L. pennellii (E × P) plants and 1640L. esculentum × L. pimpinellifolium (E × PM) plants. Despite the large number of plants analyzed, very few recombination events were detected in the centric regions, indicating a significant suppression of recombination at this region of the chromosome. The fact that recombination suppression is equally strong in crosses between closely related (E × PM) and remotely related (E × P) parents suggests that centromeric suppression is not due to DNA sequence mismatches but to some other mechanism. The greatest number of centromeric markers was resolved in theL. esculentum × L. pennellii F₂ population. The centromere of chromosome 7 is surrounded by eight cosegregating markers: three on the short arm, five on the long arm. Similarly, the centric region of chromosome 9 contains ten cosegregating markers including one short arm marker and nine long arm markers. The localization of centromeres to precise intervals on the molecular linkage map represents the first step towards the characterization and ultimate isolation of tomato centromeres.     

Assignment of RFLP linkage groups to their respective chromosomes in aneuploids of sugi (Cryptomeria japonica)

Aneuploids of sugi (Cryptomeria japonica) were found in the open-pollinated progenies of triploidplus tree clones. Seven trisomics and one hypotriploid were used to assign the chromosomes to the RFLP linkage groups constructed previously. The Southern blots containing their genomic DNA were hybridized with the labeled DNA clones corresponding to the loci in the linkage map. The additional dosage in autoradiographs showed that the cloned DNA fragment was located on the extra chromosome in the trisomics. On the other hand, the extra chromosome in two trisomics and the chromosome lacking the triplet in the hypotriploid were cytologically identified as chromosome 10 by consistent presence of a secondary constriction in the proximal region of its short arm. As a result, three linkage groups were assigned to their respective chromosomes, namely chromosome 10 and two other chromosomes.     

Five primary trisomics from translocation heterozygote progenies in common bean,Phaseolus vulgaris L.

Summary Twelve distinct phenotypic groups of plants were isolated from nondisjunction progenies of 11 translocation heterozygote stocks. All the plants in these phenotypic groups originated in the light weight seed class. Five of the 12 phenotypic groups of plants have been verified as primary trisomics. They are all phenotypically distinguishable from each other and from disomics. One of the five primary trisomic groups, puckered leaf, was directly recovered as a primary trisomic from the original translocation heterozygote progenies. Three of the five trisomics — weak stem, dark green leaf, and convex leaf — originated first as tertiary trisomics. The related primary trisomics were isolated later from progenies of selfed tertiary trisomics. The fifth group, chlorotic leaf, originated at a low frequency among the progenies of three other trisomics: puckered leaf, convex leaf, and dark green leaf. The chlorotic leaf did not set seed under field conditions. The remaining four groups — puckered leaf, dark green leaf, convex leaf, and weak stem — are fertile, though sensitive to high temperature conditions. The transmission rate of the extra chromosome on selfing ranges from 28% to 41%. Physical identification of the extra chromosome has not been achieved for any of the five trisomic groups. Two trisomic groups, dark green leaf and convex leaf, have produced tetrasomics at low frequency. The phenotypes of these two tetrasomics are similar to the corresponding trisomics but more exaggerated.Fla. Agr. Expt. Stn. Journal Series No. 7137     

Tertiary trisomics in pearl millet (Pennisetum typhoides Stapf & Hubb)

Four tertiary trisomic plants are reported here, two of them (Nos. Tr11 and Tr13) from selfed progeny of a triploid Pearl millet and the other two (Nos. 3/12 and 16/7) from the progenies of radiation induced interchange heterozygotes. The extra chromosome in Tr13 and 3/12 was the nucleolus organizing chromosome. In No. 16/7 an extra chromosome enters into an association chromosomes were also involved. Meiotic behaviour in these four trisomics indicates that Tr11 and 3/12 are tertiary trisomics. It is suggested that two reciprocal translocations have occurred between two sets of chromosomes in the triploid parent and that syngamy has taken place in such a way that four interchange chromosomes and one non-interchange nucleolus organizing chromosome have come together in the offspring. The extra chromosome in No. 16/7 is an interchange chromosome which is homologous to one of the chromosomes of an interchange complex of six chromosomes.     

Production of n + 1 plants and tetrasomics by means of anther culture of trisomic plants in rice (Oryza sativa L.)

Summary Eleven primary trisomics of rice, variety Nipponbare, were subjected to anther culture. The 12th trisomic did not produce normal anthers. A total of 3,734 plants were obtained, which were examined morphologically at the seedling stage in the greenhouse. A number of plants appeared in the progenies of ten trisomics which had unique morphological features. The frequency of these variant types differed among different progenies. Cytological observations revealed that 43 variant plants in the progenies of nine trisomics had 13 chromosomes (n + 1), and 56 were tetrasomics (2n = 26). The tetrasomic plants in the progeny of a trisomic were morphologically identical. Similarly, n + 1 plants in the progeny of a trisomic were also identical. Plants with 23, 25, 36, 39, and 73 chromosomes were also obtained. Results show that valuable aneuploids such as n + 1 and 2n + 2 can be obtained in the anther-culture-derived progenies of trisomics.     

Maize tertiary trisomic stocks derived from B-A translocations

Reciprocal translocations between supernumerary B chromosomes and the basic complement of A chromosomes in maize have resulted in a powerful set of tools to manipulate the dosage of chromosomal segments. From 15 B-A reciprocal translocation stocks that have the B-A chromosome genetically marked we have developed tertiary trisomic stocks. Tertiary trisomics are 2n + 1 aneuploids where the extra chromosome is a translocation element, in this case a B-A chromosome. Whereas B-A translocations produce aneuploidy in the sperm, the tertiary trisomic plant efficiently transmits hyperploid gametes maternally. Because the B-A tertiary trisomic stocks and the B-A translocation stocks from which they were derived are introgressed into the W22 inbred line, the effects of maternally and paternally transmitted trisomic B-A chromosomes can be compared. Data are presented on both the male and female transmission rates of the B-A chromosomes in the tertiary trisomic stocks.     

The quantitative analysis of chromosome pairing and chiasma formation based on the relative frequencies of M I configurations. II. Primary trisomics

On an earlier occasion the estimation of the “crossing-over potentials” of the two arms of a chromosome from the relative frequencies of the different types of bivalent was discussed. When in normal diploids the bivalents in M I can not be distinguished from each other, primary trisomics may be used to mark particular chromosomes. For the estimation of the “crossingover potentials” of the two arms the only type of configuration available (trivalent) is not sufficient. The required additional information may be obtained from the average probability (b) of the chromosome arms to be bound. Using the satellite chromosome trisomic ofSecale cereale it is shown that the use ofb introduces an excessive error, especially with highb values. Consequently, the primary trisomics can not be recommended for the estimation of the “crossing-over potentials” of the two arms of particular chromosomes. The telocentric trisomics permit the recognition of more configurations and are to be preferred. Partner exchange and nucleolus may both interfere with chiasma formation. The data suggest that the three homologous chromosomes may not be equal in respect to pairing and chiasma formations. There are indications that the initiation of pairing is localized in one locus on each arm.
