Substitution of rye chromosome 5r for chromosome 5b of wheat and its effect on chromosome pairing.
HEXAPLOID wheat normally exhibits homologous pairing, forming only bivalents at meiosis. However, in the absence of chromosome 5B, homoeologous as well as homologous pairing occurs ( SEARS and OKAMOTO 1958; RILEY and CHAPMAN 1958; RILEY and KEMPANNA 1963). In 5Bdeficient hybrids between wheat and related genera, the level of chromosome pairing is increaesd (RILEY, CHAPMAN and KIMBER 1959). In w...
متن کاملNondisjunction in favor of a chromosome: the mechanism of rye B chromosome drive during pollen mitosis.
B chromosomes (Bs) are supernumerary components of the genome and do not confer any advantages on the organisms that harbor them. The maintenance of Bs in natural populations is possible by their transmission at higher than Mendelian frequencies. Although drive is the key for understanding B chromosomes, the mechanism is largely unknown. We provide direct insights into the cellular mechanism of...
متن کاملMaternal "imprinting" in Goats.
Some years ago Collias1 reported a study on maternal-filial bonds in goats in which he suggested that events transpiring during a brief post partum period were particularly important. As part of our studies of the ontogenesis of social behavior, we have sought to subject the putative importance of this period to a further analysis, with special attention to its precise boundaries (if any) and t...
متن کاملEffect of a rye B chromosome and its segments on homoeologous pairing in hybrids between common wheat and Aegilops variabilis.
Rye B chromosomes, which are supernumerary chromosomes dispensable for the host but increase in number by non-disjunction after meiosis, have been reported to affect meiotic homoeologous pairing in wheat-rye hybrids. The effect of a rye B chromosome (B) and its segments (B-9 and B-10) on homoeologous pairing was studied in hybrids between common wheat (2n=42) and Aegilops variabilis (2n=28), wi...
متن کاملGenomic imprinting and maternal effect genes in haplodiploid sex determination.
The research into the Drosophila melanogaster sex-determining system has been at the basis of all further research on insect sex determination. This further research has made it clear that, for most insect species, the presence of sufficient functional Transformer (TRA) protein in the early embryonic stage is essential for female sexual development. In Hymenoptera, functional analysis of sex de...
