Using the Aegilops tauschii clone pAs1 together with the barley clone pHvG38 for two-colour fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) the entire chromosome complement of hexaploid wheat was identified. The combination of the two probes allowed easy discrimination of the three genomes of wheat. The banding pattern obtained with the pHvG38 probe containing the GAA-satellite sequence was identical to the N-banding pattern of wheat. A detailed idiogram was constructed, including 73 GAA bands and 48 pAs1 bands. Identification of the wheat chromosomes by FISH will be particularly useful in connection with the physical mapping of other DNA sequences to chromosomes, or for chromosome identification in general, as an alternative to C-banding.Key words: Triticum aestivum, chromosome identification, fluorescence in situ hybridization, repetitive DNA sequences.

The Individual

The molecular characterization of heterochromatin in six lines of rye has been performed using fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). The highly repetitive rye DNA sequences pSc 119.2, pSc74, and pSc34, and the probes pTa71 and pSc794 containing the 25S–5.8S–18S rDNA (NOR) and the 5S rDNA multigene families, respectively, were used. This allowed the individual identification of all seven rye chromosomes and most chromosome arms in all lines. All varieties showed similar but not identical patterns. A standard in situ hybridization map was constructed following the nomenclature system recommended for C-bands. All FISH sites observed appeared to correspond well with C-band locations, but not all C-banding sites coincided with hybridization sites of the repetitive DNA probes used. Quantitative and qualitative differences between different varieties were found for in situ hybridization response at corresponding sites. Variation between plants and even between homologous chromosomes of the same plant was found in open-pollinated lines. In inbred lines, the in situ pattern of the homologues was practically identical and no variation between plants was detected. The observed quantitative and qualitative differences are consistent with a corresponding variation for C-bands detected both within and between cultivars.Key words: fluorescence in situ hybridization, repetitive DNA, rye, Secale cereale, polymorphism.

Healthy Carriers

Variants in size of the acrocentric short arms (acro-ps) are normally not reported and considered as chromosomal heteromorphisms (CHMs) without any influence on the carrier’s phenotype. However, if acro-ps are translocated to ends of A-chromosomes (i.e. human chromosomes 1-22 and X or Y), those rearrangements are studied in more detail. The aim of the study: Here we characterized 11 healthy carriers of a non-acrocentric satellited chromosomes der(A)t(A;acro)(pter or qter;p1?1.2) to determine the frequency of chromosome 15p and 22p in such rearrangements. Materials and methods: 11 carriers of one (10 cases) or two (1 case) der(A)t(A;acro) were identified during routine cytogenetic analyses. They were originally referred due to infertility or due to a mentally retarded child with otherwise abnormal karyotype. Here derivative chromosomes were studied by fluorescence in situ hybridization applying probes D15Z1 (specific for 15p11.2) and D22Z4 (specific for 22p11.2). As there are no DNA-sequences available for 13p11.2, 14p11.2 and 21p11.2 these regions could not be tested. Results: D15Z1 sequences were identified in 1 out of 12 derivatives der(A)t(A;acro). D22Z1 could not be detected in any of the 11 remainder derivatives. However, only 3 of the 12 der(A)t(A;acro) had acro-ps large enough to potentially comprise sub-band p11.2. Conclusion: In contrast to der(Y)t(Y;acro)(q12;p1?1.2), where in at least 65% of the cases the acro-p part contains D15Z1 sequences, here it could be shown that in der(A)t(A;acro) 15p involvement can be substantiated much less frequently. Also, in none of the two groups D22Z4-sequences were detected in acro-p-parts yet. Besides, breakpoint of acro-pparts in der(A)t(A;acro) seem to be in ~75% of the cases distal from p11.2.

Assembly Sequences

Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) technique enables the direct detection of DNA sequences inintact cellular materials (e.g. individual chromosomes in metaphase spreads). This review article focuses on theapplications of FISH in genome research, including validation and correction of the genome assembly from thenext-generation sequencing (NGS) projects. DNA probes for specific DNA fragments of the assembly can beobtained from PCR amplicon or cloned products using different vector systems. Localization of these probeson their respective chromosomal regions can be visualized by FISH, providing useful information to crosscheckthe assembly data. Furthermore, the recent refinements in the FISH technology including using smartpooling scheme of differently colored DNA probes, together with consecutive FISH experiments (stripping andreprobing of the same slide) are described. These advances in multicolor FISH can provide crucial linkageinformation on association of linkage groups and assembly scaffolds, resulting in so-called cytogenetic maps.Integration of the cytogenetic maps and assembly sequences assists to resolve the chromosome-level genomeassembly and to reveal new insights in genome architecture and genome evolution. Especially, comparativechromosome painting with pooled DNA probes from one reference species can be used to investigate ancestralrelationships (chromosome homeology and rearrangements) among other not-yet-sequenced species. Inaddition, FISH using DNA probes for certain specific classes of repetitive DNA elements as well as for basicchromosome structures (e.g. centromere or telomere DNA repeats, ribosomal DNA loci) can be used to studythe genome organization and karyotype differentiation. We also discussed about limitations and futureperspectives of the FISH technology.

Resolution Mapping

Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), which allows direct mapping of DNA sequences on chromosomes, has become the most important technique in plant molecular cytogenetics research. Repetitive DNA sequence can generate unique FISH patterns on individual chromosomes for karyotyping and phylogenetic analysis. FISH on meiotic pachytene chromosomes coupled with digital imaging systems has become an efficient method to develop physical maps in plant species. FISH on extended DNA fibers provides a high-resolution mapping approach to analyze large DNA molecules and to characterize large genomic loci. FISH-based physical mapping provides a valuable complementary approach in genome sequencing and map-based cloning research. We expect that FISH will continue to play an important role in relating DNA sequence information to chromosome biology. FISH coupled with immunoassays will be increasingly used to study features of chromatin at the cytological level that control expression and regulation of genes.

The sites of specific DNA sequences can be fluorescently tagged by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). Different sequences can be labeled with different fluorochromes so that their arrangement can be studied using epifluorescence microscopy. The distances between points on the same or different chromosomes can be determined easily in a large number of interphase nuclei or metaphase chromosomes. A variety of probe types, ranging from single-copy sequences to highly repeated sequences can be employed. Our work has focussed on the analysis of hybridization patterns in two dimensions using conventional fluorescence microscopy.We have used FISH to study various aspects of genome organization that are difficult to study using other techniques. Examples of these applications will be presented.FISH is now the method of choice for determining the chromosomal location of DNA sequences. DNA sequences can be positioned in the genome with <1:1000 accuracy (to a 3-Mbp region within a 3000-Mbp genome). Through FISH, the cytogenetic, physical and genetic maps of chromosomes can be linked.

Retrotransposable Elements

Male-associated DNA sequences were analyzed in Cannabis sativa L. (hemp), a dioecious plant with heteromorphic sex chromosomes. DNA was isolated from male and female plants and subjected to random amplified polymorphic DNA analysis. Of 120 primers, 17 yielded 400 to 1500-bp fragments detectable in male, but not female, plants. These fragments were cloned and used as probes in gel-blot analysis of genomic DNA. When male and female DNA was hybridized with 2 of these male-specific fragments, MADC(male-associated DNA sequences in C. sativa)3 and MADC4, particularly intense bands specific to male plants were detected in addition to bands common to both sexes. The MADC3 and MADC4 sequences were shown to encode gag/pol polyproteins of copia-like retrotransposons. Fluorescence in situ hybridization with MADC3 and MADC4 as probes revealed a number of intense signals on the Y chromosome as well as dispersed signals on all chromosomes. The gel-blot analysis and fluorescence in situ hybridization results presented here support the hypothesis that accumulation of retrotransposable elements on the Y chromosome might be 1 cause of heteromorphism of sex chromosomes.Key words: Cannabis sativa, FISH, RAPD, retrotransposon, sex chromosome.
