The Sec-1 locus (ω-secalin) of rye (Secale cereale L.) was mapped in the satellite of the short arm of chromosome 1R using fluorescence in situ hybridization and a genomic probe called pSec2B. Sec-1 is located in the middle of the satellite at the junction of the proximal euchromatic and the distal heterochromatic regions. Double hybridization experiments using rDNA and pSec2B showed that the NOR spans over the secondary constriction of the short arm of chromosome 1R and that there is a clearly visible gap between the NOR and Sec-1. Heterologous hybridization of pSec2B to barley visualized the B-hordein locus on chromosome 1H.Key words: fluorescence in situ hybridization, physical mapping, genetic mapping, secalin, rye, B-hordein, rDNA.

We describe a direct and sensitive fluorescence in situ hybridization protocol for plant chromosomes. We labelled 45S rDNA with fluorescein-12-dUTP and hybridized to somatic chromosomes of four tomato genotypes. This technique does not require posthybridization immunocytochemical amplifications. The improved signal sensitivity with this technique allowed identification of new rDNA loci on three pairs of chromosomes, in addition to the previously known locus on chromosome 2. We discuss favorable features of direct fluorescence in situ hybridization for chromosomes fixed on a slide and chromosomes or cells in suspension.Key words: direct fluorescence in situ hybridization, 45S rDNA, tomato chromosomes.
