Identification of all homoeologous chromosomes of newly synthetic allotetraploid Cucumis × hytivus and its wild parent reveals stable subgenome structure.

Abstract:

:Allopolyploidy and homoeologous recombination are two important processes in reshaping genomes and generating evolutionary novelties. Newly formed allopolyploids usually display chromosomal perturbations as a result of pairing errors at meiosis. To understand mechanisms of stabilization of allopolyploid species derived from distant chromosome bases, we investigated mitotic stability of a synthetic Cucumis allotetraploid species in relation to meiosis chromosome behavior. The Cucumis × hytivus is an allotetraploid synthesized from interspecific hybridization between cucumber (Cucumis sativus, 2n = 14) and its wild relative Cucumis hystrix (2n = 24) followed by spontaneous chromosome doubling. In the present study, we analyzed the wild parent C. hystrix and the latest generation of C. hytivus using GISH (genomic in situ hybridization) and cross-species FISH (fluorescence in situ hybridization). The karyotype of C. hystrix was constructed with two methods using cucumber fosmid clones and repetitive sequences. Using repeat-element probe mix in two successive hybridizations allowed for routine identification of all 19 homoeologous chromosomes of allotetraploid C. hytivus. No aneuploids were identified in any C. hytivus individuals that were characterized, and no large-scale chromosomal rearrangements were identified in this synthetic allotetraploid. Meiotic irregularities, such as homoeologous pairing, were frequently observed, resulting in univalent and intergenomic multivalent formation. The relatively stable chromosome structure of the synthetic Cucumis allotetraploid may be explained by more deleterious chromosomal viable gametes compared with other allopolyploids. The knowledge of genetic and genomic information of Cucumis allotetraploid species could provide novel insights into the establishment of allopolyploids with different chromosome bases.
