Identification and physical mapping of induced translocation breakpoints involv...
Descrição
Abstract To obtain translocations involving specific chromosomes in rye, pollen of a line in which chromosome 1R has large C-bands on its two telomeres, but which lacks C-bands (or has very small ones) on the telomeres of the remaining chromosomes, was X-irradiated. All translocations involving the labelled chromosome (1R) could be easily recognized in C-banded mitotic metaphases. The non-labelled chromosome involved in each translocation was identified either from mitotic C-banding analysis or from the meiotic configurations observed in some specific progenies. A physical map including 40 translocation breakpoints has been developed by means of synaptonemal complex (SC) analysis of well-paired pachytene quadrivalents. The results agree with the hypothesis of chromosomes 2R to 7R having similar probabilities of participating in translocations with chromosome 1R. However, the locations of the breakpoints are not entirely random: an excess of translocation breakpoints located on the short arm of chromosome 1R was obtained, and the two acentric translocated segments of each translocation show a trend towards having similar sizes. The possible reasons for these two non-random situations are discussed. http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s10577-006-1089-7
