Two Solanum brevidens specific repetitive DNA clones (pSB1 and pSB7) were used simultaneously as probes in fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) for cytological studies of somatohaploids and their somatic hybrid donors. pSB1 was labelled with digoxigenin-11-dUTP and pSB7 was labelled with biotin-14-dATP and they were detected with reporter molecules conjugated to fluorescent dyes using digital imaging. The tandemly repeated sequences hybridized mostly near the telomeres of the chromosomes of S. brevidens. Using these two probes, it was possible to identify chromosomes containing repetitive DNA of S. brevidens both in the somatic hybrids between S. brevidens and S. tuberosum, and somatohaploids derived from the somatic hybrids. These cytological analyses showed that for the largest part genomes of the hexaploid somatic hybrids and their anther-derived triploid somatohaploids were composed of the genome of S. brevidens.

The chromosomal distribution, copy numbers, and nucleotide sequences were determined for four repetitive DNA clones, pSB1 and pSB7 of Solanum brevidens and pST3 and pST10 of Solanum tuberosum. Using fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), pSB1 and pSB7 were localized near the telomeres and in some centromeric and interstitial sites of S. brevidens chromosomes, but not in S. tuberosum chromosomes, after high stringency washes. The clone pST3 showed signals in the telomeric areas of a few chromosomes in S. tuberosum, but signals were not detected in S. brevidens. All three repeated sequences (pSB1, pSB7, and pST3) were detected in chromosomal areas that are typically known to contain tandemly repeated sequences. The S. tuberosum clone pST10 did not show signals in either species even at low stringency conditions. The estimated copy numbers of the four clones were 1500, 6750, 300, and 400 for pSB1, pSB7, pST3, and pST10, respectively, in the corresponding haploid genomes (S. brevidens and S. tuberosum). The inserts of the four clones pSB1, pSB7, pST3, and pST10 were 322, 167, 845, and 121 bp, respectively. After sequencing, no significant sequence homologies were found among the four clones. A homology search in sequence data bases showed that pSB7 has variable homology (78-100%) with another repetitive sequence of S. brevidens Sb4/2 depending on its subrepeat. It also showed some homology with one repeat of tomato (pLEG15) and one repeat of Solanum circaeifolium (pSC15).Key words: chromosome, copy number, fluorescence in situ hybridization, FISH, nucleotide sequence, potato.

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.

Repetitive DNA was cloned from HindIII-digested genomic DNA of Larix leptolepis. The repetitive DNA was about 170 bp long, had an AT content of 67%, and was organized tandemly in the genome. Using fluorescence in situ hybridization and subsequent DAPI banding, the repetitive DNA was localized in DAPI bands at the proximal region of one arm of chromosomes in L. leptolepis and Larix chinensis. Southern blot hybridization to genomic DNA of seven species and five varieties probed with cloned repetitive DNA showed that the repetitive DNA family was present in a tandem organization in genomes of all Larix taxa examined. In addition to the 170-bp sequence, a 220-bp sequence belonging to the same DNA family was also present in 10 taxa. The 220-bp repeat unit was a partial duplication of the 170-bp repeat unit. The 220-bp repeat unit was more abundant in L. chinensis and Larix potaninii var. macrocarpa than in other taxa. The repetitive DNA composed 2.0–3.4% of the genome in most taxa and 0.3 and 0.5% of the genome in L. chinensis and L. potaninii var. macrocarpa, respectively. The unique distribution of the 220-bp repeat unit in Larix indicates the close relationship of these two species. In the family Pinaceae, the LPD (Larix proximal DAPI band specific repeat sequence family) family sequence is widely distributed, but their amount is very small except in the genus Larix. The abundant LPD family in Larix will occur after its speciation.Key words: AT-rich tandem repetitive DNA, fluorescence in situ hybridization, Larix, proximal DAPI band.
