[摘要]：Fluorescence in situ hybridization, base-specific fluorescence, C-banding and silver-staining were performed to reveal the cyto-molecular constitution of the karyotype in the bivalent-forming Rhoeo spathacea concolor. It was shown that the genome of this form is almost identical to the beta-complex of the ring-forming rhoeos. In spite of some modifications in the arrangement of a few distal rDNA sites and in the amount of pericentromeric AT-rich heterochromatin, the alethal genome of the bivalent-forming Rhoeo seems segmentally unaltered. Thus, the breakdown of balanced lethals in Rhoeo is most likely uncoupled from creating new chromosome arm combinations. Copyright (C) 2011 S. Karger AG, Basel |
