Chromosome rearrangements and the evolution of genome structuring and adaptability.
Eukaryotes appear to evolve by micro and macro rearrangements. This is observed not only for long-term evolutionary adaptation, but also in short-term experimental evolution of yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Moreover, based on these and other experiments it has been postulated that repeat elements, retroposons for example, mediate such events. We study an evolutionary model in which genomes w...
متن کاملSynteny conservation and chromosome rearrangements during mammalian evolution.
An important problem in comparative genome analysis has been defining reliable measures of synteny conservation. The published analytical measures of synteny conservation have limitations. Nonindependence of comparisons, conserved and disrupted syntenies that are as yet unidentified, and redundant rearrangements lead to systematic errors that tend to overestimate the degree of conservation. We ...
متن کاملChromosome rearrangements in Dictyostelium discoideum.
A tandem duplication (D350(III,III] of the whiB to radB interval of linkage group III has been characterized. The gene order on the duplication-bearing chromosome is: centromere, whiB500, radB+, whiB+, radB24, bsgA5, acrC4. Slow-growing, duplication-bearing strains (yellow-spored, radiation-resistant) produced four classes of faster growing sectors involving the whiB and radB loci: white-spored...
متن کاملChromosome rearrangements in Caenorhabditis elegans.
A method for selecting unlinked duplications of a part of the X chromosome of C. elegans is described. Five such duplications have been identified. One of them, Dp (X;V)1, is translocated to linkage group V, where it suppresses crossing over along the left half of linkage group V. Dp(X;V)1 homozygotes grow slowly and are sterile. The other four duplications are associated with chromosome fragme...
متن کاملHow to recognize and diagnose chromosome rearrangements
In most eukaryotes, chromosome rearrangements are recognized cytologically by visibly altered chromosome structure, or genetically by altered linkage relations. The first translocations in Neurospora were detected and verified using these methods (McClintock 1945, Houlahan et al. 1949). However, characteristics of Neurospora provide an easier method that depends on ascospore pigmentation, and t...
