Elymus Lanceolatus

Two accessions of Elymus caucasicus (Koch) Tzvelev and three accessions of Elymus longearistatus (Boiss.) Tzvelev were studied to determine the meiotic behavior and chromosome pairing in the two taxa, their interspecific hybrid, and their hybrids with various "analyzer" parents. Interspecific and intergeneric hybrids of the target taxa were obtained with the following analyzer species: Pseudoroegneria spicata (Pursh) A. Löve (2n = 14, SS), Pseudoroegneria libanotica (Hackel) D. R. Dewey (2n = 14, SS), Hordeum violaceum Boiss. &Hohenacker (2n = 14, HH) (= Critesion violaceum (Boiss. &Hohenacker) A. Löve), Elymus lanceolatus (Scribn. &Smith) Gould (2n = 28, SSHH), Elymus abolinii (Drob.) Tzvelev (2n = 28, SSYY), Elymus pendulinus (Nevski) Tzvelev (2n = 28, SSYY), Elymus fedtschenkoi Tzvelev (2n = 28, SSYY), Elymus panormitanus (Parl.) Tzvelev (2n = 28, SSYY), and Elymus drobovii (Nevski) Tzvelev (2n = 42, SSHHYY). Cytological analysis of their F1 hybrids showed that E. caucasicus and E. longearistatus were allotetraploids comprising the same basic genomes. Chromosome pairing in the E. caucasicus × P. libanotica hybrid demonstrated that the target taxa contained the S genome, based on 6.1 bivalents per cell. The lack of chromosome pairing, less than one bivalent per cell, in the E. longearistatus × H. violaceum hybrid showed that the H genome was absent. Increased pairing in the tetraploid and pentaploid hybrids when the Y genome was introduced indicated that the second genome in the two taxa was a segmental homolog of the Y genome. The S and Y genomes in E. caucasicus and E. longearistatus have diverged from each other and from those in many of the eastern and central Asian SY tetraploids.Key words: genome, meiosis, chromosome pairing, morphology, hybrid, Triticeae.

Root Contact

A previous study showed that clonal morphology of the rhizomatous grass Elymus lanceolatus ssp. lanceolatus (Scibner & J.G. Smith Gould) was influenced more by neighbouring root systems than by the local distribution of nutrients. In this study we determine whether individual rhizomes or roots of E. lanceolatus perceive neighbouring root systems and how this is manifested in morphological responses of E. lanceolatus clones. Elymus lanceolatus was grown in the same bin with Pseudoroegneria spicata (Pursh) A. Love or Agropyron desertorum (Fisch. ex Link) Schult. plants. Elymus lanceolatus was separated from its neighbours by different barriers. The barriers allowed either only E. lanceolatus roots; only a single E. lanceolatus primary rhizome; or both roots and rhizomes to contact the neighbour root system. When only a single E. lanceolatus primary rhizome with potentially developing branching rhizomes made contact with the neighbour, the clonal structure of E. lanceolatus was modified more with P. spicata as the neighbour than with A. desertorum. With root contact of E. lanceolatus alone there was a similar effect with the neighbouring plants, but there was a more marked inhibitory effect on E. lanceolatus clonal growth with P. spicata than with A. desertorum, compared with the treatment with only a single rhizome in contact with the neighbour. Root resource competition in the unconstrained treatment (roots and rhizomes) between neighbouring plant and E. lanceolatus was more apparent with A. desertorum than with P. spicata. This study is one of the first to document that rhizome and root contact of a clonal plant with its neighbours may induce different clonal responses depending on the species of neighbour. Key words: Agropyron desertorum, clonal morphology, Elymus lanceolatus ssp. lanceolatus, plant interference, plant contact, Pseudoroegneria spicata, rhizome structure, root systems.

This study reports on the cytogenetics, fertility, mode of reproduction, and morphological variation of two perennial Triticeae grasses, Elymus kengii (Keng) Tzvelev and Elymus grandiglumis (Keng) A. Löve, from west central China. Both species are allohexaploids (2n = 42), self-fertile, and morphologically distinct on the basis of their plant color, glume length, and lemma and rachis vestiture. F1 hybrids between these two species are partially fertile and morphologically intermediate to their parents. Analysis of chromosome pairing in hybrids between E. grandiglumis or E. kengii and the following "analyzer" species, Psathyrostachys juncea (Fisch.) Nevski (NN), Psathyrostachys huashanica Keng (NN), Elymus lanceolatus (Scribn. &Smith) Gould (SSHH), Elymus dentatus (Hook. f.) Tzvelev ssp. ugamicus (Drob.) Tzvelev (SSYY), Elymus ciliaris (Trin.) Nevski (SSYY), Pseudoroegneria spicata (Pursh) A Löve (SS), and Pseudoroegneria tauri (Boiss. &Bal.) A. Löve (SSPP), suggested that both taxa contain the S, Y, and P genomes. This represents a new genome combination not previously reported and shows that the P genome from the crested wheatgrasses (Agropyron) has been involved in polyploid evolution within the. Triticeae.Key words: genome, meiosis, chromosome pairing, interspecific hybrids, Elymus, Triticeae.

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.

Emasculated clones of tetraploid and octaploid Elymus trachycaulus crossed with Pseudoroegneria spicata yielded 69 triploids and 13 pentaploid hybrids. The triploid hybrids were morphologically intermediate between the parental species but the pentaploid hybrids resembled E. trachycaulus more closely than P. spicata. A very high degree of plant size variability (very weak to very vigorous) was observed among the 50 triploids that survived to maturity. The variability among the pentaploids, though apparent, was not high. Mean chromosome associations among the selected eight triploids varied from low multivalent formation at meiosis (7.60 I + 6.18 II + 0.24 III + 0.08 IV) to high multivalent-forming meiosis (7.28 I + 5.66 II + 0.32 III + 0.36 IV). The bivalent configurations in these triploids were attributed to homoeologous pairing between the S1 genome of P. spicata and S genomes of E. trachycaulus and the multivalents indicated intergenomal and intragenomal pairings. Mean chromosome associations of 5.22 I + 11.94 II + 1.97 III in 78.7% and 7 I + 14 II in 21.3% of the 150 cells were distributed among the three pentaploid hybrids. The low frequency of trivalents and the absence of multivalents higher than trivalent configurations suggest that homoeologous pairing was substantially reduced and there was no intergenomal and intragenomal pairing in these 2n = 35 x hybrids. Fourteen triploids and three pentaploid hybrids were produced from 4x and 8x forms of E. trachycaulus and P. spicata spp. inermis crosses. The triploids were intermediate between the parents but the pentaploids were more similar to E. trachycaulus. Mean chromosome associations in the triploids (6.020 I + 5.315 II + 0.554 III + 0.235 IV + 0.250 V + 0.048 VI + 0.03 VII) and in the pentaploids (3.50 I + 10.18 II + 3.54 III + 0.13 IV) indicated a very high degree of intergenomal and intragenomal pairing in the triploids; nevertheless, it was greatly reduced in the pentaploids. The Pseudoroegneria spicata ssp. inermis genome may have gene(s) that affect a high degree of intergenomal and intragenomal pairing in triploid hybrids with E. trachycaulus. However, in pentaploid hybrids (SS HH S2) the S and H genomes of E. trachycaulus in double dose seem to have restored its regular meiotic bahaviour, at least partially, and reduced homoeologous pairing as well as intergenomal and intragenomal pairing. Key words: Elymus trachycaulus, Pseudoroegneria spicata, regular meiotic behaviour, double dose, intergenomal pairing, intragenomal pairing.
