Abstract
The polyploid species in Rosa section Caninae (2n=21, 28 or 35) are characterized by an unusual reproductive system known as odd (or asymmetric) meiosis. Only two chromosome sets form bivalents in meiosis, whereas the remaining chromosomes are transmitted as univalents through the female germline. Evolution of ribosomal rRNA genes (rDNA) does not seem to be significantly affected by interlocus homogenization in dogroses. As a consequence, most species contain several rDNA families falling into two main clades (beta and gamma) thought to be differentially distributed between bivalent and univalent chromosomes, respectively. Here, we have investigated expression of rRNA gene families in five pentaploid species (R. canina, R. rubiginosa, R. dumalis, R. sherardii and R. caesia, 2n=35) and in one tetraploid (R. mollis, 2n=28). Using extensive sequencing of ITS clones and cleaved amplified polymorphism sequence (CAPS) analysis, we found that the beta-family was constitutively expressed in all species. However, there was large variation in the expression patterns of families constituting the gamma-clade. In addition, a single family can be active in one species, whereas silenced in another. The data show that the families on bivalent-forming chromosomes dominate rDNA expression in all dogrose species. We hypothesize that genes on bivalent genomes are stably expressed, whereas those on univalent genomes undergo variable levels of epigenetic silencing. Nonetheless, mosaic expression of univalent genomes could contribute to phenotypic variation between the species.

Abstract
Trees of 68 apple cultivars, aimed for preservation by the 'National Program for diversity of cultivated plants' as mandate cultivars, were analysed using a set of 10 SSR (simple sequence repeat) primer pairs and the self-incompatibility (S-)locus to evaluate genetic diversity and reveal inter-cultivar relationships. The 12 polymorphic SSR loci exhibited 2 to 15 alleles, with expected heterozygozity (H(e)) ranging from 0.36 to 0.88 and a mean of 0.74. Numerous alleles were classified as rare or unique (35% and 18% respectively). For the S-locus, a total of 14 alleles were identified in this study. Five alleles, S1-S3, S5 and S7 had frequencies ranging from 11 to 18%, whereas the remaining 9 alleles were below 6%. All sexually obtained cultivars could be distinguished with the set of SSR loci. Sports were identical with their progenitors in two cases, but differed in one SSR allele in a third case. An SSR-based dendrogram, based on Roger's genetic distances, did not reveal any clear pattern of clustering. The genetic distances were, however, correlated with a corresponding matrix obtained in a previously conducted RAPD-based study of the same cultivars. Non-mandate parents of Swedish mandate cultivars together with some other reference cultivars were included in this study to check the accuracy of allele scoring, verify parentage and compare the results of this study with those presented in previously published studies. Some discrepancies in allele sizing were revealed and the possibilities of avoiding this problem are discussed.

Abstract
In pentaploid dogroses, Rosa section Caninae (2n=5x=35), the pollen transmits one basic genome (x=7) derived from the seven segregating bivalents, whereas the egg transmits four basic genomes (4x=28) one set derived from the segregation of seven bivalents and three sets of univalent-forming chromosomes. Chromosomes from all five genomes carry 18-5.8-26S nuclear ribosomal DNA (rDNA) sites. This mode of sexual reproduction, known as permanent odd polyploidy, can potentially lead to the independent evolution of rDNA on bivalent- and univalent-forming chromosomes. To test this hypothesis, we analyzed rRNA gene families in pollen and somatic leaf tissue of R. canina, R. rubiginosa and R. dumalis. Six major rRNA gene families (alpha, beta, beta' gamma, delta and epsilon) were identified based on several highly polymorphic sites in the internal transcribed spacers (ITSs). At least two of the major rRNA gene families were found in each species indicating that rDNAs have not been homogenized across subgenomes. A comparison of ITS1 sequences from leaf and pollen showed differences: the shared beta rRNA gene family was more abundant among pollen clones compared to leaf clones and must constitute a major part of the rDNA loci on bivalent-forming chromosomes. The gamma and delta families were underrepresented in pollen genomes and are probably located predominantly (or solely) on the univalents. The results support the hypothesis that pentaploid dogroses inherited a bivalent-forming genome from a common proto-canina ancestor, a likely donor of the beta rDNA family. Allopolyploidy with distantly related species is likely to have driven evolution of Rosa section Caninae.

Abstract
The genus Rosa has a complex evolutionary history caused by several factors, often in conjunction: extensive hybridization, recent radiation, incomplete lineage sorting, and multiple events of polyploidy. We examined the applicability of AFLP markers for reconstructing (species) relationships in Rosa, using UPGMA clustering, Wagner parsimony, and Bayesian inference. All trees were well resolved, but many of the deeper branches were weakly supported. The cluster analysis showed that the rose cultivars can be separated into a European and an Oriental cluster, each being related to different wild species. The phylogenetic analyses showed that (1) two of the four subgenera (Hulthemia and Platyrhodon) do not deserve subgeneric status; (2) section Carolinae should be merged with sect. Cinnamomeae; (3) subsection Rubigineae is a monophyletic group within sect. Caninae, making sect. Caninae paraphyletic; and (4) there is little support for the distinction of the five other subsections within sect. Caninae. Comparison of the trees with morphological classifications and with previous molecular studies showed that all methods yielded reliable trees. Bayesian inference proved to be a useful alternative to parsimony analysis of AFLP data. Because of their genome-wide sampling, AFLPs are the markers of choice to reconstruct (species) relationships in evolutionary complex groups.

Abstract
An allopolyploid complex with high genomic integrity has been studied. Dogroses transmit only seven chromosomes (from seven bivalents) through the pollen, whereas 21, 28 or 35 chromosomes (from seven bivalents and 14, 21 or 28 univalents) come from the egg cells. Seedlings derived from two interspecific crosses were analysed with flow cytometry and molecular markers to determine ploidy level, mode of reproduction and genomic constitution. Evidence was obtained for the formation of unreduced male and female gametes, which can take part in fertilization (producing seedlings with higher ploidy than the parental plants) or in apomictic reproduction. Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) and microsatellite analyses indicated that three seedlings (5%) were derived through apomixis, whereas the other 49 were hybrids. Bivalent formation appears to involve chromosomes that consistently share the same microsatellite alleles. Allele-sharing between the maternally transmitted and highly conserved univalent-forming chromosomes reflected the taxonomic distance between different genotypes. The frequently recombining bivalent-forming chromosomes were taxonomically less informative.

Abstract
Plant breeding in black chokeberry (Aronia melanocarpa) is based mainly on seedlings derived from domesticated Russian plants. Previous studies have, however, demonstrated very low levels of phenotypic variation within this gene pool. The present investigation was undertaken in order to study the genetic structure in native populations growing in North America. Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) marker variation was analysed in eight populations (three or five mother plants/population and five seedlings/mother plant) and compared with the variation in four cultivars and 15 seedlings derived from a Russian plantation. The four cultivars and all the Russian seedlings turned out to have identical RAPD profiles. In the native plant material, there were two types of mother plants: diploid plants that produced very heterogeneous offspring and tetraploid plants that produced homogeneous offspring. Partitioning of variability based on Shannon's diversity index attributed approx. 22% of the variation to the among-population level in diploids, compared to approx. 55% in the tetraploids. However, the diploid populations and the tetraploid populations did not differ significantly in within-population variation. These results prompted a second set of RAPD analyses, which were carried out on offspring obtained through open pollination of the initially examined material when growing in an experimental field. The analyses showed that tetraploid plants produced tetraploid offspring that, with few exceptions, were identical, indicating apomixis, whereas offspring of diploid plants were diploid or triploid, and highly heterogeneous, indicating outcrossing. Presumably, the tetraploid form of Aronia is an allopolyploid, with A. melanocarpa as one of the parents.

Abstract
According to previous cytological evidence, the hemisexual dog-rose species, Rosa sect. Caninae, transmit only seven chromosomes (derived from seven bivalents) through their pollen grains, whereas egg cells contain 21, 28 or 35 chromosomes (derived from seven bivalents and 14, 21 or 28 univalents) depending on ploidy level. Two sets of reciprocal pairwise interspecific crosses involving the pentaploid species pair R. dumalis and R. rubiginosa, and the pentaploid/tetraploid species pair R. sherardii and R. villosa, were analysed for 13 and 12 microsatellite DNA loci, respectively. Single loci were represented by a maximum of three simultaneously occurring alleles in R. villosa, and four alleles in the other three parental plants. In the experimentally derived offspring, the theoretical maximum of five alleles was found for only one locus in the pentaploid progenies. Microsatellite DNA allele composition was identical with that of the maternal parent in 10 offspring plants, which were probably derived through apomixis. Almost all microsatellite DNA alleles were shared with the maternal parent also in the remaining offspring, but 1-4 alleles shared only with the paternal parent, indicating sexual seed formation. Analysis of quantitative peak differences allowed a tentative estimation of allelic configuration in the individual plants, and suggested that bivalent formation preferentially takes place between chromosomes that consistently share the same microsatellite alleles and therefore appear to be highly homologous. Moreover, alleles that were shared between the species in each cross combination comparatively often appear to reside on the bivalent-forming chromosomes, whereas species-specific alleles instead occur comparatively often on the univalent-forming chromosomes and are therefore inherited through the maternal parent only. Recombination then takes place between very similar genomes also in interspecific crosses, resulting in a reproduction system that is essentially a mixture between apomixis and selfing.

Abstract
Polysomic inheritance frequently results in the simultaneous occurrence of several microsatellite DNA alleles on a single locus. The MAC-PR (microsatellite DNA allele counting-peak ratios) method was recently developed for the analysis of polyploid plants and makes use of the quantitative values for microsatellite allele peak areas. To date, this approach has only been used in plants with known genetic relationships. We report here the application of MAC-PR for the first time to random samples of unknown pedigrees. We analysed six microsatellite loci using a set of tetraploid ornamental rose ( Rosa x hybrida L.) varieties. For each locus, all alleles were analysed in pairwise combinations in order to determine their copy number in the individual samples. This was accomplished by calculating the ratios between the peak areas for two alleles in all of the samples where these two alleles occurred together. The allele peak ratios observed were plotted in a histogram, and those histograms that produced at least two well-separated groups were selected for further analysis. Mean allelic peak ratio values for these groups were compared to the relationships expected between alleles in hypothetical configurations of the locus investigated. Using this approach, we were able to assign precise allelic configurations (the actual genotype) to almost all of the varieties analysed for five of the six loci investigated. MAC-PR also appears to be a very effective tool for detecting 'null' alleles in polyploid species.

Abstract
In southwest Ethiopia, the cultivation area of Ensete ventricosum (enset) overlaps with the natural distribution area of this species. Analyses of genetic diversity were undertaken using RAPD to provide information for conservation strategies as well as evidence of possible gene flow between the different gene pools, which can be of interest for future improvement of cultivated enset. The extent of RAPD variation in wild enset was investigated in 5 populations in the Bonga area (Kefficho administrative region) and 9 cultivated clones. Comparisons were also made with some Musa samples of potential relevance for crop improvement. Nine oligonucleotide primers amplified 72 polymorphic loci. Population differentiation was estimated with the Shannon index (G'(ST)=0.10), Nei's G(ST) (0.12) and AMOVA (Phi(ST)=0.12), and appears to be relatively low when compared with outbreeding, perennial species in general. Cluster analysis (UPGMA) and principal component analysis (PCA) similarly indicated low population differentiation, and also demonstrated that cultivated clones essentially clustered distinctly from wild enset samples, suggesting that the present-day cultivated enset clones have been introduced to domestication from a limited number of wild progenitors. In addition, subsequent gene flow between wild and cultivated enset may have been prohibited by differences between modes of propagation and harvesting time; cultivated enset is propagated vegetatively through sucker production and the plant is generally harvested before maturity or flower set, thereby hindering pollination by wild enset or vice versa. A significant correlation was not found between genetic and geographical distances. The relatively high total RAPD diversity suggests that wild enset populations in the Bonga area harbour genetic variability which could potentially act as a source for useful or rare genes in the improvement of cultivated enset. As expected, E. ventricosum was clearly differentiated from the analysed Musa samples, that clustered in accordance with the present morphology- and molecular marker-based taxonomy of the genus.

Abstract
A compilation was made of 307 studies using nuclear DNA markers for evaluating among- and within-population diversity in wild angiosperms and gymnosperms. Estimates derived by the dominantly inherited markers (RAPD, AFLP, ISSR) are very similar and may be directly comparable. STMS analysis yields almost three times higher values for within-population diversity whereas among-population diversity estimates are similar to those derived by the dominantly inherited markers. Number of sampled plants per population and number of scored microsatellite DNA alleles are correlated with some of the population genetics parameters. In addition, maximum geographical distance between sampled populations has a strong positive effect on among-population diversity. As previously verified with allozyme data, RAPD- and STMS-based analyses show that long-lived, outcrossing, late successional taxa retain most of their genetic variability within populations. By contrast, annual, selfing and/or early successional taxa allocate most of the genetic variability among populations. Estimates for among- and within-population diversity, respectively, were negatively correlated. The only major discrepancy between allozymes and STMS on the one hand, and RAPD on the other hand, concerns geographical range; within-population diversity was strongly affected when the former methods were used but not so in the RAPD-based studies. Direct comparisons between the different methods, when applied to the same plant material, indicate large similarities between the dominant markers and somewhat lower similarity with the STMS-based data, presumably due to insufficient number of analysed microsatellite DNA loci in many studies.

Abstract
The dogroses, Rosa section Caninae, are all polyploid and characterised by their unbalanced meiosis; the pollen parent contributes one genome, whereas the seed parent contributes 3-5 genomes depending upon ploidy level of the species. As a result, genetically determined traits are expected to be matroclinally inherited. In the present study, the transmittal of genetic material was studied using manually scored reproductive characters (ovary and sepals), automated image analysis of leaflet shape (Fourier coefficients), and molecular markers (RAPD). The plant material consisted of a pair of reciprocal crosses between R. sherardii and R. villosa, a R. rubiginosa x R. sherardii cross and offspring obtained from selfing or within-population crosses of the parental species. All but one of the maternal markers were transmitted to all the offspring plants, whereas only 41% of the paternal markers were transmitted to all of them, 23% were never transmitted and 36% reached only one or two of the offspring plants. Canonical variates analyses (CVA) based on the vegetative characters could easily separate the offspring groups representing parental species and also all three hybridogenous offspring groups from each other, whereas CVA based on reproductive characters failed to separate R. sherardii x R. villosa from its seed parent, but otherwise distinguished all offspring groups. The study shows that the expression of characters as well as molecular marker inheritance is dependent upon the direction of the cross, and on the species involved. It also demonstrates the importance of employing several different types of character sets for an improved comprehension of the effects of the peculiar canina meiosis.

Abstract
Evidence of spontaneous hybridization between two partially sympatric species of Chaenomeles, C. cathayensis and C. speciosa, has been obtained through analysis of offspring families from these two species, as well as from two presumed interspecific hybrid populations. A combination of different methods was applied. Analysis of diagnostic RAPD markers and of chloroplast DNA haplotypes supported the notion of spontaneous hybridization, and suggested that there has been symmetrical, rather than unidirectional, introgression between C. cathayensis and C. speciosa. RAPDs and morphological characters revealed concordant patterns of genetic relatedness among the studied offspring families. Some putative hybrid families had mainly intermediate characters, whereas others appeared to be later generation hybrids as they were genetically and phenotypically rather similar to families that appeared to represent pure species. The RAPD-based proportion of between-family variability was considerably higher in the putatively hybridogenous populations than in populations of the pure species. Within-family gene diversity estimates ranged from C. speciosa (max. Hj = 0.235) to C. cathayensis (min. Hj = 0.094) with the presumed hybrid families taking intermediate values.
