We used pre-annealing of differently labelled total genomic DNA probes to perform simultaneous genomic in situ hybridization on mitotic and meiotic chromosomes of interspecific hybrids between plant species of the Tribe Triticeae. The species origin of chromosomes was demonstrated by a two-colour fluorescence after in situ hybridization with directly labelled probes incorporating fluorescein (visualized green) and rhodamine (visualized red). The pre-annealing blocked out common DNA sequences between the different genomes, hence increasing species specificity of the probes. The method is simple and rapid because the hybridization takes only about 2 h, including the pre-annealing step, and hence the whole process can be accomplished easily within a working day making it suitable for routine analysis of chromosomes and genomes.Key words: pre-annealing, genomic in situ hybridization, total genomic DNA probe, cereal species.

Metaphase Chromosomes

Genomic in situ hybridization to somatic metaphase chromosomes of hexaploid wheat cv. Chinese Spring using biotinylated maize genomic DNA as a probe revealed the existence of amplified maize DNA sequences in five pairs of chromosomes. The in situ hybridization sites were located on chromosomes 1A, 7A, 2B, 3B, and 7B. One pair of in situ hybridization sites was also observed in hexaploid oat. The locations and sizes of in situ hybridization sites varied among progenitor species.Key words: Triticum aestivum, Zea mays, shared DNA sequences, genomic in situ hybridization.

Homoeologous Chromosomes

A 4x potato (+) tomato fusion hybrid (2n = 4x = 48) was successfully backcrossed with a diploid Lycopersicon pennellii (2n = 2x = 24). Genomic in situ hybridization (GISH) on somatic and meiotic chromosomes confirmed that the progenies were triploids (2n = 3x = 36) and possessed three different genomes: potato, tomato, and L. pennellii. Therefore, they have been called trigenomic hybrids. Total genomic probes of both Lycopersicon species were found to hybridize mutually, whereas the potato genome was clearly differentiated. During metaphase I, bivalents were formed predominantly between tomato and L. pennellii chromosomes and the univalents of potato chromosomes were most common. Trivalents in all cases included homoeologous chromosomes of potato, tomato, and L. pennellii. However, the triploids were totally sterile as determined from extensive crossing. On chromosome doubling of triploids by shoot regeneration from callus, hexaploids (2n = 6x = 72) were obtained. Despite exhibiting clear allohexaploid behaviour by forming 36 bivalents at meiosis, these were also completely sterile like their triploid counterparts. In spite of this drawback, the prospects of chromosome pairing between potato L. pennellii and Solanum genomes does open the possibilities for bringing the two genera close.Key words: trigenomic triploids, GISH, bridge species, potato (+) tomato fusion hybrids.

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.

Southern and in situ hybridization were used to examine the chromosome constitution, genomic relationships, repetitive DNA sequences, and nuclear architecture in durum wheat × tritordeum hybrids (2n = 5x = 35), where tritordeum is the fertile amphiploid (2n = 6x = 42) between Hordeum chilense and durum wheat. Using in situ hybridization, H. chilense total genomic DNA hybridized strongly to the H. chilense chromosomes and weakly to the wheat chromosomes, which showed some strongly labelled bands. pHcKB6, a cloned repetitive sequence isolated from H. chilense, enabled the unequivocal identification of each H. chilense chromosome at metaphase. Analysis of chromosome disposition in prophase nuclei, using the same probes, showed that the chromosomes of H. chilense origin were in individual domains with only limited intermixing with chromosomes of wheat origin. Six major sites of 18S–26S rDNA genes were detected on the chromosomes of the hybrids. Hybridization to Southern transfers of restriction enzyme digests using genomic DNA showed some variants of tandem repeats, perhaps owing to methylation. Both techniques gave complementary information, extending that available from phenotypic, chromosome morphology, or isozyme analysis, and perhaps are useful for following chromosomes or chromosome segments during further crossing of the lines in plant breeding programs.Key words: In situ hybridization, molecular cytogenetics, plant breeding, Hordeum chilense, Southern hybridization, durum wheat, hybrids.

A technique for in situ hybridization is reported that can be used to detect barley chromatin in wheat background using total genomic DNA as a probe. A 1:2 ratio of biotin-labeled genomic DNA of barley to blocking (unlabeled, sheared) DNA of wheat was sufficient to reveal brownish labeled barley chromosome domains against bluish background of unlabeled wheat chromatin in metaphase, prophase, and interphase nuclei of wheat-barley addition lines. Using this procedure, the behavior of specific barley chromosomes was analyzed in interphase and prophase cells. In prophase cells, the 6H chromosome was always associated with a nucleolus. A genomic clone of α-amylase gene (gRAmy56) that contains a barley-specific dispersed repeat sequence was also used to detect barley chromosomes in a wheat background.Key words: Hordeum vulgare, Triticum aestivum, genomic in situ hybridization, biotin, nucleolar organizing region.

Genomic in situ hybridization using total genomic DNA extracted from the C genome diploid species Avena eriantha (2n = 2x = 14, genome CpCp) was used to identify monosomics (2n = 6x − 1 = 41) of the constituent genomes of the hexaploid cultivated oat A. sativa L. cv. Sun II (2n = 6x = 42, genomes AACCDD). The results demonstrate 3 AD/C and 6 C/AD chromosome translocations, indicate that five of the missing monosomics are derived from the C genome, and show that there are duplicates within the partial monosomic series. Chromosome polymorphisms between some monosomic lines are also demonstrated.Key words: Avena, monosomics, genomic in situ hybridization, genomic identification.

Introgression of genes in species crosses can be observed morphologically in backcrossed or selfed progenies, but the phenotype does not give information about the movement of DNAs. Cytogenetic markers allow for visualization of specific DNAs in a genome. Few cytogenetic markers are available in onion to monitor the introgression of DNA in species crosses. Genomic in situ hybridization (GISH) provides a way to locate unique DNA sequences contributed by parents. We are using GISH to monitor the movement of DNAs from A. fistulosum into A. cepa. Results of experiments using A. fistulosum as probe DNA, and A. cepa as blocking DNA will be reported. Also presented are hybridization sites observed in F1BC3 progeny of the GISH.

Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) technique enables the direct detection of DNA sequences inintact cellular materials (e.g. individual chromosomes in metaphase spreads). This review article focuses on theapplications of FISH in genome research, including validation and correction of the genome assembly from thenext-generation sequencing (NGS) projects. DNA probes for specific DNA fragments of the assembly can beobtained from PCR amplicon or cloned products using different vector systems. Localization of these probeson their respective chromosomal regions can be visualized by FISH, providing useful information to crosscheckthe assembly data. Furthermore, the recent refinements in the FISH technology including using smartpooling scheme of differently colored DNA probes, together with consecutive FISH experiments (stripping andreprobing of the same slide) are described. These advances in multicolor FISH can provide crucial linkageinformation on association of linkage groups and assembly scaffolds, resulting in so-called cytogenetic maps.Integration of the cytogenetic maps and assembly sequences assists to resolve the chromosome-level genomeassembly and to reveal new insights in genome architecture and genome evolution. Especially, comparativechromosome painting with pooled DNA probes from one reference species can be used to investigate ancestralrelationships (chromosome homeology and rearrangements) among other not-yet-sequenced species. Inaddition, FISH using DNA probes for certain specific classes of repetitive DNA elements as well as for basicchromosome structures (e.g. centromere or telomere DNA repeats, ribosomal DNA loci) can be used to studythe genome organization and karyotype differentiation. We also discussed about limitations and futureperspectives of the FISH technology.
