An X-ray-induced mutation in common wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), designated ph2, conditions an intermediate level of homoeologous chromosome pairing in hybrids with Triticum kotschyi var. variabilis. The number of chromosomes paired averaged 9.2 per sporocyte, compared with 2.0 in the control and 27.9 in the same hybrid involving ph1b, an apparent deficiency for Ph1 obtained in the same mutation experiment. The ph2 mutation is located on chromosome 3D and is believed to be a deficiency for a terminal segment of the short arm that includes the locus of Ph2, a minor suppressor of homoeologous pairing. Although no pairing of the ph2-carrying chromosome with telosome 3DS was observed, the mutation is clearly not a deficiency for the entire arm. It has little effect on pairing in wheat itself. Male transmission of the mutation is approximately normal, and fertility, while reduced, is sufficient for easy maintenance of the homozygous line.

Polygenic System

The number of chiasmata per cell at metaphase I was scored in eight haploid plants of Triticum aestivum L. emend. Thell. cv. 'Chinese Spring' and 100 hybrid plants of Chinese Spring × Secale cereale L. Mean chiasma frequency per cell ranged from 0.00 to 3.59 in the hybrids and from 0.17 to 0.35 in the haploids. Since the same wheat genotype was present in both the haploids and hybrids, it is concluded that some of the rye genotypes promoted homoeologous chromosome pairing. The absence of distinct segregation classes among the hybrids suggests that these genes constitute a polygenic system.

Sporophyte Production

Solitary plants of Asplenium platyneuron occur disjunctively on recently produced coal spoils in southern Iowa. They are assumed to have been produced by self-fertilization of isolated gametophytes and therefore highly homozygous. Cultures of isolated and paired gametophytes originating from these solitary sporophytes produced second-generation sporophytes with 89 and 93% success, respectively, indicating a low genetic load as expected. The failure of gametophytes from coal-spoil plants to produce sporophytes with even greater success may result from homoeologous chromosome pairing and recombination at meiosis which allows production of variable spores and expression of genetic load from plants produced by self-fertilization of single gametophytes. Cultures of isolated and paired gametophytes originating from sporophytes in populations central to the species' range produced second-generation sporophytes with 83 and 90% success, respectively, indicating a significantly greater genetic load in populations but still a relatively low genetic load for the species. Through low genetic load, regularity of sporophyte production from isolated gametophytes, and ability of such plants to release variability through homoeologous chromosome pairing, Asplenium platyneuron is remarkably adapted for, and successful in, colonizing distant habitats through long-range spore dispersal.

Lophopyrum Ponticum

Barley yellow dwarf is the most damaging virus-caused disease in bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). A resistant line, SW335.1.2-13-11-1-5 (2n = 47), derived from a cross of T. aestivum × Lophopyrum ponticum was characterized by meiotic chromosome pairing, by in situ DNA hybridization and by expression of molecular markers to determine its chromosome constitution. All progeny of this line had three pairs of L. ponticum chromosomes from homoeologous chromosome groups 3, 5, and 6 and the 2n = 47 progeny had an additional L. ponticum monosome. The pairs from groups 3 and 6 were in the added state, while the group 5 pair was substituted for wheat chromosome 5D. Several wheat–wheat translocations with respect to the parental wheat genotype occurred in this line, presumably owing to the promotion of homoeologous chromosome pairing by L. ponticum chromosomes. It was hypothesized that homoeologous recombination results in homoeologous duplication–deletions in wheat chromosomes. An aberrant 3:1 disjunction creates the potential at each meiosis for replacement of these wheat chromosomes by homoeologous L. ponticum chromosomes. Wheat chromosomes 3A and 6A appeared to be in intermediate stages of this substitution process.Key words: wheat, wheatgrass, Lophopyrum, barley yellow dwarf virus, disease resistance, homoeologous chromosome recombination, homoeologous pairing, alien chromosome substitution.

Structural Differences

Homoeology between the A and B genomes of allotetraploid (2n = 4x = 28) AiAiBiBi and autoallooctoploid (2n = 8x = 56) AIAIAIAIBIBIBIBI cytotypes of B. inermis Leyss. was studied in a tetraploid F1 hybrid (AeAeAiBi) from 4x B. erectus × 4x B. inermis and in a haplo-triploid (AIeAIeBI) which occurred spontaneously in the F2 from open-pollination among plants of the hexaploid F1 hybrid (AeAeAIAIBIBI) from 4x B. erectus × 8x B. inermis. Chromosome pairing at metaphase I in both the tetraploid (AeAeAiBi) and haplo-triploid (AIeAIeBI) indicated that for each A genome chromosome there was a corresponding B genome homoeologue. There was no convincing evidence of gross structural differences between the two homoeologous genomes. The frequency of trivalent formation in the haplo-triploid was approximately one-half that found in two pentaploids (2n = 5x = 35) AIeAIeAIBIBI. This indicates that the pairing affinity between the A and B genomes is one-half that between homologues as expressed by trivalent formation in triploids of the type AAB and AAA. Homoeologous chromosome pairing (A with B) may be controlled by a gene which is hemizygous ineffective.

Homoeologous Chromosomes

Two mutants, each promoting homoeologous chromosome pairing in hexaploid wheat (Triticum × aestivum L. emend gr. aestivum), in the cultivar Chinese Spring, ph1b at the Ph locus on chromosome 5BL and the other, ph2, on chromosome 3DS, were compared for their influence on chromosome pairing and fertility in pentaploid hybrids with Triticum turgidum L. emend var. dicoccoides (Korn. in litt. in Schweinf.). The mutants induced increased multivalent frequency over the normal pentaploid. Lower univalent frequencies in the ph2-pentaploid, compared with the normal pentaploid, indicated that D-genome chromosomes of the former were substantially involved in homoeologous pairing. Certain differences in other meiotic processes and fertility among the pentaploids may reflect differences in the activity of the pairing genes. There appeared to be a higher level of univalent elimination in pollen and egg cells in the ph2-, compared with the ph1b-pentaploid. Tetrad formation was close to normal in the ph2- pentaploid but exhibited high levels of abnormality (monads, dyads, triads and apolar tetrads) in the ph1b-pentaploid. Fertility levels in crosses of the pentaploids with hexaploid wheat, while low, were much lower for the ph1b-, compared with the ph2-pentaploid.

Aegilops Variabilis

Genetic differences which affect the extent of homoeologous chromosome pairing in intergeneric hybrids have been demonstrated between varieties of Triticum aestivum. Each of seven varieties of Triticum was crossed with the same strain of Aegilops variabilis. Significant differences in chiasma frequencies between varieties were found. Varieties Eureka, Gamut and Chinese Spring constitute one group with a relatively low chiasma frequency and varieties A. R. Falcon, Federation and Poso constitute a distinct second group with a relatively high chiasma frequency. The variety Bearded Yalta is intermediate to the two groups. Thus, this genetic variation appears to be common among varieties of Triticum. Presumably this variation does not become subject to natural selection as long as chromosome pairing in the parental varieties remains strictly homologous.
