    Notes: Abstract Degenerate oligonucleotide primed (DOP)-PCR has emerged as a simple and rapid method for representative amplification of highly complex genomic DNA from humans, mice and Drosophila. The present paper describes the adaptation of this method for use on a plant species, Vicia faba, with a large genome (2C = 30 pg). Specific low-copy-number sequences as well as highly repeated sequences were detectable among DOP-PCR products obtained from small samples of purified genomic DNA (100 pg), DNA from 10 prophase nuclei, 10 flow-sorted chromosomes or 15 microdissected chromosome segments (satellites) following reamplification with sequence-specific primers and/or Southern hybridization. Biotinylated chromosome-specific DOP-PCR products were used for fluorescent in situ hybridization. All chromosomes showed hybridization signals, with the exception of regions containing Fok elements which are not present in the chromosomal DNA targeted by DOP-PCR.

    A monophyletic origin of the B chromosomes ofBrachycome dichromosomatica (Asteraceae) (1999)

    Notes: Abstract The A and B chromosomes of different karyotype variants (cytodemes A1, A2, A3 and A4) ofBrachycome dichromosomatica were analysed by computer-aided chromosome image analysis and fluorescencein situ hybridisation (FISH). Ribosomal DNA and the B chromosome-specific sequence Bd49 were detected on all B chromosomes. In addition to minor size variation of the Bs, polymorphism of the rDNA and Bd49 position and copy number revealed two major types of B chromosomes. The B chromosomes of all the cytodemes were indistinguishable from each other in length, but that of A3 showed evidence of rearrangements consistent with its long-term geographic isolation. The results presented suggest a monophyletic origin of the B chromosomes ofB. dichromosomatica.

    Keywords: Aegilops markgrafii ; aneuploids ; chromosome specific library ; DOP-PCR ; microdissection ; molecular markers ; Triticum aestivum ; wheat

    Notes: Summary We established a chromosome specific DNA library of the Aegilops markgrafii chromosome B. Eight microdissected chromosomes B obtained from a monosomic T. aestivum-Aegilops markgrafii addition line were PCR-amplified and the DNA was cloned in Escherichia coli DH5α. Clones were characterized by dot blot hybridization with total Ae. markgrafii DNA. 62% of clones represented repetitive sequences and 38% low or single copy sequences. The estimated length of excised inserts varied between less than 200 bp and more than 500 bp. The average size of inserts was 310 bp.

    Structure and evolution of supernumerary chromosomes in the Pacific giant salamander, Dicamptodon tenebrosus (2000)

    Notes: Abstract We examined the genetic make-up and plausible origins of the supernumerary (B) chromosomes of the Pacific giant salamander, Dicamptodon tenebrosus, from the Pacific Northwest of North America. These salamanders have variable numbers of B chromosomes, from 0 to 10 per individual. Salamanders from the most southerly and northerly regions of the species' range have lower average numbers of B chromosomes than salamanders in the middle of the range. To assess how the supernumerary chromosomes originated in D. tenebrosus, B chromosome DNA was isolated by microdissection and amplified by degenerate oligonucleotide-primed PCR. The B chromosome DNA hybridized similarly to genomic DNA from individuals of D. tenebrosus and the related species D. copei and D. ensatus, thus demonstrating that the supernumerary chromosomes were derived from the normal chromosome complement. Unique hybridization bands in both D. copei and D. tenebrosus suggest that the shared sequences have evolved independently.

    Differential immunostaining of plant chromosomes by antibodies recognizing acetylated histone H4 variants (1996)

    Notes: Abstract Metaphase chromosomes ofVicia faba were exposed to antibodies recognizing defined acetylated isoforms of histone H4. After indirect immunostaining with antibodies directed against H4 acetylated on lysines 5, 8 and 12 respectively, the entire chromosome complement was labelled. The brightest signal appeared at the nucleolus organizing region (NOR). The large genetically inert heterochromatic regions, which are composed of late replicating tandemly repetitive DNA sequences, remained unlabelled. Thus, the chromosomal distribution of histones H4 acetylated at positions of lysine 5, 8 and 12 is broadly correlated with the intensity of transcription and the sequence of replication of the field bean chromatin during interphase. Antibodies against H4 acetylated at lysine 16 also caused a strong signal at the NOR but otherwise a uniform fluorescence along the chromosome.

    Genetics of sex determination in flowering plants (1994)

    Notes: Most flowering plant species are hermaphroditic, but a small number of species in most plant families are unisexual (i.e., an individ-ual will produce only male or female gametes). Because species with unisexual flowers have evolved repeatedly from hermaphroditic progenitors, the mechanisms controlling sex determination in flowering plants are extremely diverse. Sex is most strongly determined by genotype in all species but the mechanisms range from a single controlling locus to sex chromosomes bearing several linked locirequired for sex determination. Plant hormones also influence sex expression with variable effects from species to species. Here, we review the genetic control of sex determination from a number of plant species to illustrate the variety of extant mechanisms. We emphasize species that are now used as models to investigate the molecular biology of sex determination. We also present our own investigations of the structure of plant sex chromosomes of white campion (Silene latifolia - Melan-drium album). The cytogenetic basis of sex determination in white campion is similar to mammals in that it has a male-specific Y-chromosome that carries dominant male determining genes. If one copy of this chromosome is in the genome, the plant is male. Otherwise it is female. Like mammalian Y-chromosomes, the white campion Y-chromosome is rich in repetitive DNA. We isolated repetitive sequences from microdissected Y-chromosomes of white campion to study the distribution of homologous repeated sequences on the Y-chromosome and the other chromosomes. We found the Y to be especially rich in repetitive sequences that were generally dispersed over all the white campion chromosomes. Despite its repetitive character, the Y-chromosome is mainly euchromatic. This may be due to the relatively recent evolution of the white campion sex chromosomes compared to the sex chromosomes of animals. © 1994 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
