To test the effect of single rye chromosomes on the pairing of homoeologous wheat chromosomes, the seven wheat-rye addition lines of "Chinese Spring" and "Imperial" were crossed with Secale cereale L. and S. montanum L. In haploid triticale with 28 chromosomes (ABD R) no homoeologous pairing was induced. In the 29-chromosome hybrids, the two homologous rye chromosomes tended to form a rod bivalent indicating a suppressor effect of the wheat genome on chiasma formation between homologous rye chromosomes. Unequivocal evidence for homoeologous pairing of wheat chromosomes was found in several F1 plants. It is suggested that in the rye species Secale cereale and S. montanum the system which suppresses the activity of the Ph locus consists of more than two alleles which may act additively. They may be located on different chromosomes and may differ in number in the same genotype. Alleles effecting homoeologous pairing in wheat seem to be more frequent in S. montanum than in S. cereale. It is possible that in rye exceptionally strong alleles exist for homoeologous pairing.

In F1 plants from crosses between Triticum aestivum var. 'Chinese Spring' monosomic 5D and Aegilops speltoides Tausch. var. aucheri (Boiss) it was found that at a temperature of 12 °C the presence of chromosome 5D is necessary to maintain the level of homoeologous pairing and chiasma formation observed under greenhouse conditions. Some genotypes of Ae. speltoides, however, were more efficient than others in compensating for the absence of chromosome 5D. The differences in compensating ability indicate the existence of several alleles in Ae. speltoides that counteract the low-temperature pairing system on chromosome 5D. An analogous system of alleles previously reported in Ae. speltoides that suppresses the chromosome 5B diploidising system of wheat was substantiated by the present study. The results indicate, however, that the two systems are independent.

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.

PCR-based rye (Secale cereale L.) chromosome-specific markers can contribute to the effective utilization of elite genes of rye in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) breeding programs. In the present study, 578 new PCR-based rye-specific markers have been developed by using specific length amplified fragment sequencing (SLAF-seq) technology, and 76 markers displayed different polymorphism among rye Kustro, Imperial, and King II. A total of 427 and 387 markers were, respectively, located on individual chromosomes and chromosome arms of Kustro by using a set of wheat–rye monosomic addition lines and 13 monotelosomic addition lines, which were derived from T. aestivum L. ‘Mianyang11’ × S. cereale L. ‘Kustro’. In addition, two sets of wheat–rye disomic addition lines, which were derived from T. aestivum L. var. Chinese Spring × S. cereale L. var. Imperial and T. aestivum L. ‘Holdfast’ × S. cereale L. var. King II, were used to test the chromosomal specificity of the 427 markers. The chromosomal locations of 281 markers were consistent among the three sets of wheat–rye addition lines. The markers developed in this study can be used to identify a given segment of rye chromosomes in wheat background and accelerate the utilization of elite genes on rye chromosomes in wheat breeding programs.

Three tetraploid triticales were analysed by C-banding techniques in order to establish their chromosome constitutions. All three tetraploid triticales contained seven rye chromosomes with the banding pattern of Secale cereale L. A mixture of A- and B-genome chromosomes from Triticum turgidum L. constituted the wheat genome present in the tetraploid triticales. Triticale Trc 4x3 contained 1A, 2B, 3A, 4A, 5B, 6A, and 7B. Triticale Trc 4x2 contained 1A, 2B, 3B, 4B, 5B, 6A, and 7B, while triticale Trc 4x5 contained 1A, 2B, 3B, 4A, 5A, 6A, and 7B. The reliability of the staining technique is subject to errors in identification, which are discussed.

Metaphase I

A comparative analysis of synaptonemal complex formation at pachytene and chromosome association at metaphase I was carried out in heterozygotes for translocation T242W (2R/6R) of rye (Secale cereale L.). Synaptonemal complex formation supported earlier light microscopic observations that one exchanged segment of this translocation was very small and restricted to the telomere or had been lost. Negative interference between the interstitial segments with respect to chiasma formation was detected at metaphase I. This interference was apparently the result of the simultaneous occurrence of either asynapsis or nonhomologous pairing around the translocation point at pachytene. Negative interference detected across the centromere of 6R was attributed to nonhomologous pairing. The presence of an intercalary C-band in the interstitial segment 2RLi or in the 1RS arm had no apparent influence on synaptonemal complex formation. Unmatched ends of synaptonemal complex 1R and of the multivalent were in most cases associated with heterozygosity for the telomeric C-heterochromatin.Key words: Secale cereale, translocation, synapsis, interference, C-banding.

Pairing Behaviour

In order to investigate the possible relation between meiotic time and meiotic chromosome pairing behaviour, meiosis was timed in various forms of wheat and wheat hybrids. First, meiosis was timed in ten Triticum aestivum (var. Chinese Spring) genotypes with different chromosome constitutions which differed widely in the meiotic pairing behaviour. Secondly, in order to escape from the disadvantage of aneuploid material, meiosis was also timed in plants which differed in the extent of homoeologous pairing because of the activities of different alleles at one or two loci. For this experiment use was made of F 1 -hybrids from the cross T. aestivum x Aegilops mutica which, although they all have 28 chromosomes, differ widely in the amount of homoeologous pairing. Thirdly, meiosis was also timed in 28-chromosome and 29-chromosome plants derived from the cross between rye (Secale cereale) x 43-chromosome T. aestivum containing a single Ae. mutica addition chromosome known to carry genes which greatly affect the level of homoeologous pairing in wheat. Although the 28-chromosome plants display very little pairing (chiasma frequency per cell (c. f.) = 0.5) while 29-chromosome plants display a much higher amount of pairing (c. f. = 7.8) no difference in meiotic time was detected between them. Similarly, the duration of meiosis was not significantly different between the three types of F 1 -hybrids between T. aestivum x Ae. mutica which had chiasma frequencies of 14.3, 7.4 and 0.9. Thus, these results agree in showing that there was no correlation between the duration of meiosis and the amount of homoeologous chromosome pairing. The results obtained for genotypes of Chinese Spring also provided no evidence to support the notion that there is a relation between the level of chromosome pairing and the duration of the pairing process. Consequently some doubt must be cast upon the idea that the time available for pairing is limiting to the pairing process. It was shown that individual wheat chromosomes in Chinese Spring differed in their effects on meiotic duration. For instance, the absence of chromosome 7B has no detectable effect on meiotic duration. The absence of chromosome 5B in two genotypes resulted in an increase in meiotic time from that found in euploid plants (24 h) to that found in tetraploid wheat species (about 30 h). By using plants ditelosomic for chromosome 5B L it was shown that most, if not all, of the genetic effects of chromosome 5B on meiotic time are determined by the short arm.

The present study analyzed meiotic pairing in wheat – rye hybrids obtained by crossing of Triticum aestivum cv. Chinese Spring with allogamous ryes, two cultivars of Secale cereale ('Don Enrique' and 'Selectión') and Secale cereale ssp. segetale. The results indicate that each rye type has different behaviour on hybrid meiotic pairing because they contain distinct genetic systems affecting meiotic pairing. In the case of 'Don Enrique' and 'Selección,' a polygenic system could be present, but not identical in both cultivars. On the other hand, Secale cereale ssp. segetale contained genes that strongly affect the genetic system controlling homoeologous pairing in wheat.Key words: homoeologous pairing, wheat – rye hybrids, polygenic system, major genes.

The Relationship

Three of the seven chromosomes of rye (Secale cereale L.) 2R, 3R, and 6R have been identified individually by their N-banding pattern. Each of the N-banded chromosomes possesses a single band which is seen as one dot on each chromatid. Although the bands correspond with particular intercalary C-bands, they were found to be different from the remaining C-bands by sequential C- and N-banding analysis and thus reveal the heterogeneity of rye heterochromatin. It is described as C-banding and N-banding positive heterochromatin (C+N+). Similar to wheat and barley, the N-bands in rye appear to correspond to sites of (GAA)m (GAG)n sequence satellite DNA. In chromosome identification, the N-bands can be used as additional markers for the long arm of chromosome 2R (2RL), the short arm of chromosome 3R (3RS), and the long arm of chromosome 6R (6RL).Key words: heterochromatin, nonhistone proteins, banding, wheat–rye addition lines, rye.

Two Stages

Electron microscopy of whole-mount surface-spread synaptonemal complex complements and conventional light microscopy of chromosomes at first metaphase of meiosis were used to compare the relative frequencies of pairing configurations at the two stages in inbred autotetraploid rye (Secale cereale L.). Statistical tests showed significantly fewer multivalents at first metaphase than expectations based on random initiation of synapsis at each telomeric site within each group of four homologues. Direct observations of synaptic behaviour of chromosomes showed that this deviation is due primarily to a preponderance of bivalents during zygotene and pachytene. It is also the result of a significant drop in multivalent frequency from meiotic prophase to metaphase I, which is attributable both to a lack of chiasmata with which to consolidate multivalents and inhibition of chiasma formation in synaptonemal complex segments of multivalents that are nonhomologous.Key words: autotetraploid, rye, synaptonemal complex, multivalents, chiasmata.
