    Notes: Out of 400 reciprocal crosses made between Brassica napus and Arabidopsis thaliana, 200 maternal B. napus flowers produced 31 seeds and 10 seeds developed when A. thaliana was used as the female parent. Of the latter, three seeds successfully germinated but did not develop into mature plants. In contrast, plants from all 32 seeds generated from B. napus were established. DNA from these 31 plants was analysed by 18 probes mapped to the A. thaliana genome, two selectable marker genes and one A. thaliana species-specific repetitive probe. It was found that one plant had identical restriction fragments to A. thaliana with two of the 21 probes used. The gene flow within Brassicaceae is discussed in light of this result.

    Notes: Abstract  Chromosome counts and RFLP markers mapped to Arabidopsis thaliana were used to determine the proportion of eliminated chromosomes and retained A. thaliana DNA in the back-crossed (BC) progeny derived from symmetric and asymmetric somatic hybrids between Brassica napus and A. thaliana. All plants were analysed for the presence of two RFLP markers per chromosome, preferably with one located on each chromosome arm. A reduction in both A. thaliana RFLP markers and chromosome numbers was found in the BC1 and BC2 generations of the symmetric hybrids as well as in the BC1 generation of the asymmetric hybrids. In the symmetric hybrids, two back-crosses to B. napus were required to reduce the frequency of retained A. thaliana loci to 42.4% and mean chromosome number to 39.4. In comparison, the BC1 progeny of the asymmetric hybrids had 16% of the analysed A. thaliana loci present and an average of 38.4 chromosomes maintained. When the frequency of A. thaliana chromosomes with both analysed loci maintained was compared with the frequency of chromosomes with one locus lost and one kept, a reduction in the number of complete chromosomes between BC1 and BC2 derived from the symmetric hybrids was observed. Among the BC1 plants in the asymmetric group the situation was different, with higher amounts of incomplete donor chromosomes compared to whole chromosomes. The results indicate that A. thaliana chromosome fragments are more often found in the progeny of irradiated hybrids, while back-crossed symmetric hybrids have more complete chromosomes.

    Notes: Abstract  Asymmetric somatic hybrids between Brassica napus (receptor) and Arabidopsis thaliana (donor) have been produced by three different methods supposed to induce asymmetry. The donor protoplasts were either UV- or X-irradiated, or the mixture of protoplasts was treated with the restriction enzyme PvuII immediately before fusion. The genome composition of the hybrids was analysed with Southern blot hybridisations using 15 different mapped A. thaliana RFLP markers as probes. Both UV- and X-irradiation were found to be efficient treatments for induction of asymmetry in somatic hybrids in a dose-dependent manner. The addition of a restriction enzyme to the protoplast mixture did not have any effect on the frequency of asymmetric hybrids or on the degree of asymmetry in the hybrids produced. UV- and X-irradiation resulted in higher fertility in the hybrids, while PvuII treatment did not have any effect on seed set. A significant positive correlation between degree of asymmetry in different plants and seed set after selfing was detected.
