The aim of the experiments was to produce and identify different Triticum aestivum – Aegilops biuncialis disomic addition lines. To facilitate the exact identification of the Ae. biuncialis chromosomes in these Triticum aestivum – Ae. biuncialis disomic additions, it was necessary to analyze the fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) pattern of Ae. biuncialis (2n = 4x = 28, UbUbMbMb), comparing it with the diploid progenitors (Aegilops umbellulata, 2n = 2x = 14, UU and Aegilops comosa, 2n = 2x = 14, MM). To identify the Ae. biuncialis chromosomes, FISH was carried out using 2 DNA clones (pSc119.2 and pAs1) on Ae. biuncialis and its 2 diploid progenitor species. Differences in the hybridization patterns of all chromosomes were observed among the 4 Ae. umbellulata accessions, the 4 Ae. comosa accessions, and the 3 Ae. biuncialis accessions analyzed. The hybridization pattern of the M genome was more variable than that of the U genome. Five different wheat – Ae. biuncialis addition lines were produced from the wheat – Ae. biuncialis amphiploids produced earlier in Martonvásár. The 2M, 3M, 7M, 3U, and 5U chromosome pairs were identified with FISH using 3 repetitive DNA clones (pSc119.2, pAs1, and pTa71) in the disomic chromosome additions produced. Genomic in situ hybridization (GISH) was used to differentiate the Ae. biuncialis chromosomes from wheat, but no chromosome rearrangements between wheat and Ae. biuncialis were detected in the addition lines.Key words: Triticum aestivum, Aegilops biuncialis, fluorescence in situ hybridization, genomic in situ hybridization, wheat – Aegilops biuncialis addition lines.

The Stability

A previous paper reported the development of disomic addition lines (2H, 3H, 4H, and 1HS isochromosomic) from hybrids between the winter wheat ‘Martonvásári 9 kr1’ and the two-rowed winter barley cultivar ‘Igri’. The present paper describes the isolation of two new additions, the 7H disomic and 6HS ditelosomic additions, using fluorescence in situ hybridization with the repetitive DNA probes Afa-family and HvT01. The identification of the barley chromosomes in the wheat genome was confirmed with simple sequence repeat markers. The morphological characterization of the new addition lines is also discussed. Studies of the genetic stability of the whole set (2H, 3H, 4H, 7H, 1HS iso, 6HS) of ‘Martonvásári 9 kr1’ – ‘Igri’ additions revealed that the most stable disomic additions are 2H and 3H and the most unstable line is the 1HS isochromosomic addition.

Labelling Method

The multicolour genomic in situ hybridization (mcGISH) method was improved in order to visualize the U b and M b genomes of Aegilops biuncialis Vis. (2n=4x=28, U b U b M b M b ). Hybridization probes prepared from the diploid U and M genome donors, Ae. umbellulata and Ae. comosa , resulted in clear hybridization signals on the U and M chromosomes in Ae. biuncialis . The random primed labelling method made it possible to decrease the blocking ratio to 1:30. McGISH allowed the simultaneous discrimination of individual Ae. biuncialis genomes and wheat chromosomes in γ-irradiated Triticum aestivum-Ae. biuncialis amphiploids (2n=70; AABBDDU b U b M b M b ). Dicentric chromosomes, terminal and interstitial translocations and centric fusions were detected in the irradiated generation. The irradiation-induced wheat- Ae. biuncialis intergenomic translocations will facilitate the successful introgression of useful agronomic traits into bread wheat.

Procedures for chromosome analysis and sorting using flow cytometry (flow cytogenetics) were developed for rye (Secale cereale L.). Suspensions of intact chromosomes were prepared by mechanical homogenization of synchronized root tips after mild fixation with formaldehyde. Histograms of relative fluorescence intensity obtained after the analysis of DAPI-stained chromosomes (flow karyotypes) were characterized and the chromosome content of the DNA peaks was determined. Chromosome 1R could be discriminated on a flow karyotype of S. cereale 'Imperial'. The remaining rye chromosomes (2R–7R) could be discriminated and sorted from individual wheat–rye addition lines. The analysis of lines with reconstructed karyotypes demonstrated a possibility of sorting translocation chromosomes. Supernumerary B chromosomes could be sorted from an experimental rye population and from S. cereale 'Adams'. Flow-sorted chromosomes were identified by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) with probes for various DNA repeats. Large numbers of chromosomes of a single type sorted onto microscopic slides facilitated detection of rarely occurring chromosome variants by FISH with specific probes. PCR with chromosome-specific primers confirmed the identity of sorted fractions and indicated suitability of sorted chromosomes for physical mapping. The possibility to sort large numbers of chromosomes opens a way for the construction of large-insert chromosome-specific DNA libraries in rye.Key words: chromosome isolation, chromosome sorting, fluorescence in situ hybridization, repetitive DNA sequences, wheat-rye addition lines, B chromosomes, physical mapping.

Diagnostic markers for eight Thinopyrum distichum addition chromosomes in Triticum turgidum were established using C-banding, in situ hybridization, and restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis. The C-band karyotype conclusively identified individual Th. distichum chromosomes and distinguished them from chromosomes of T. turgidum. Also, TaqI and BamHI restriction fragments containing 5S and 18S–5.8S–26S rRNA sequences were identified as positive markers specific to Th. distichum chromosomes. Simultaneous fluorescence in situ hybridization showed both 5S and 18S–5.8S–26S ribosomal RNA genes to be located on chromosome IV. Thinopyrum distichum chromosome VII carried only a 18S–5.8S–26S rRNA locus and chromosome pair II carried only a 5S rRNA locus. The arrangement of these loci on Th. distichum chromosome IV was different from that on wheat chromosome pair 1B. Two other unidentified Th. distichum chromosome pairs also carried 5S rRNA loci. The homoeologous relationship between Th. distichum chromosomes IV and VII and chromosomes of other members of the Triticeae was discussed by comparing results obtained using these physical and molecular markers.Key words: Triticum turgidum, homoeologous relationship, Triticeae, addition lines, NOR.

Elymus Species

The genome constitution of Icelandic Elymus caninus, E. alaskanus, and Elytrigia repens was examined by fluorescence in situ hybridization using genomic DNA and selected cloned sequences as probes. Genomic in situ hybridization (GISH) of Hordeum brachyantherum ssp. californicum (diploid, H genome) probe confirmed the presence of an H genome in the two tetraploid Elymus species and identified its presence in the hexaploid Elytrigia repens. The H chromosomes were painted uniformly except for some chromosomes of Elytrigia repens which showed extended unlabelled pericentromeric and subterminal regions. A mixture of genomic DNA from H. marinum ssp. marinum (diploid,Xa genome) and H. murinum ssp. leporinum (tetraploid,Xu genome) did not hybridize to chromosomes of the Elymus species or Elytrigia repens, confirming that these genomes were different from the H genome. The St genomic probe from Pseudoroegneria spicata (diploid) did not discriminate between the genomes of the Elymus species, whereas it produced dispersed and spotty hybridization signals most likely on the two St genomes of Elytrigia repens. Chromosomes of the two genera Elymus and Elytrigia showed different patterns of hybridization with clones pTa71 and pAes41, while clones pTa1 and pSc119.2 hybridized only to Elytrigia chromosomes. Based on FISH with these genomic and cloned probes, the two Elymus species are genomically similar, but they are evidently different from Elytrigia repens. Therefore the genomes of Icelandic Elymus caninus and E. alaskanus remain as StH, whereas the genomes of Elytrigia repens are proposed as XXH.Key words: Elymus, Elytrigia, H genome, St genome, in situ hybridization.

A technique for in situ hybridization is reported that can be used to detect barley chromatin in wheat background using total genomic DNA as a probe. A 1:2 ratio of biotin-labeled genomic DNA of barley to blocking (unlabeled, sheared) DNA of wheat was sufficient to reveal brownish labeled barley chromosome domains against bluish background of unlabeled wheat chromatin in metaphase, prophase, and interphase nuclei of wheat-barley addition lines. Using this procedure, the behavior of specific barley chromosomes was analyzed in interphase and prophase cells. In prophase cells, the 6H chromosome was always associated with a nucleolus. A genomic clone of α-amylase gene (gRAmy56) that contains a barley-specific dispersed repeat sequence was also used to detect barley chromosomes in a wheat background.Key words: Hordeum vulgare, Triticum aestivum, genomic in situ hybridization, biotin, nucleolar organizing region.

Genomic in situ hybridization to somatic metaphase chromosomes of hexaploid wheat cv. Chinese Spring using biotinylated maize genomic DNA as a probe revealed the existence of amplified maize DNA sequences in five pairs of chromosomes. The in situ hybridization sites were located on chromosomes 1A, 7A, 2B, 3B, and 7B. One pair of in situ hybridization sites was also observed in hexaploid oat. The locations and sizes of in situ hybridization sites varied among progenitor species.Key words: Triticum aestivum, Zea mays, shared DNA sequences, genomic in situ hybridization.
