Abstract
Fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) is a powerful method for the targeted visualization of nucleic acids in their native contexts. Recent technological advances have leveraged computationally designed oligonucleotide (oligo) probes to interrogate > 100 distinct targets in the same sample, pushing the boundaries of FISH-based assays. However, even in the most highly multiplexed experiments, repetitive DNA regions are typically not included as targets, as the computational design of specific probes against such regions presents significant technical challenges. Consequently, many open questions remain about the organization and function of highly repetitive sequences. Here, we introduce Tigerfish, a software tool for the genome-scale design of oligo probes against repetitive DNA intervals. We showcase Tigerfish by designing a panel of 24 interval-specific repeat probes specific to each of the 24 human chromosomes and imaging this panel on metaphase spreads and in interphase nuclei. Tigerfish extends the powerful toolkit of oligo-based FISH to highly repetitive DNA.

PLANTS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 12:4169. [PMID: 38140496 PMCID: PMC10747672 DOI: 10.3390/plants12244169] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/12/2023] [Revised: 12/05/2023] [Accepted: 12/11/2023] [Indexed: 12/24/2023]
Abstract
Pseudoroegneria species play an important role among Triticeae grasses, as they are the putative donors of the St genome in many polyploid species. Satellite repeats are widely used as a reliable tool for tracking evolutionary changes because they are distributed throughout the genomes of plants. The aim of our work is to perform a comparative characterization of the repeatomes of the closely related species Ps. libanotica and Ps. tauri, and Ps. spicata was also included in the analysis. The overall repeatome structures of Ps. libanotica, Ps. tauri, and Ps. spicata were similar, with some individual peculiarities observed in the abundance of the SIRE (Ty1/Copia) retrotransposons, Mutator and Harbinger transposons, and satellites. Nine new satellite repeats that have been identified from the whole-genome sequences of Ps. spicata and Ps. tauri, as well as the CL244 repeat that was previously found in Aegilops crassa, were localized to the chromosomes of Ps. libanotica and Ps. tauri. Four satellite repeats (CL69, CL101, CL119, CL244) demonstrated terminal and/or distal localization, while six repeats (CL82, CL89, CL168, CL185, CL192, CL207) were pericentromeric. Based on the obtained results, it can be assumed that Ps. libanotica and Ps. tauri are closely related species, although they have individual peculiarities in their repeatome structures and patterns of satellite repeat localization on chromosomes. The evolutionary fate of the identified satellite repeats and their related sequences, as well as their distribution on the chromosomes of Triticeae species, are discussed. The newly developed St genome chromosome markers developed in the present research can be useful in population studies of Ps. libanotica and Ps. tauri; auto- and allopolyploids that contain the St genome, such as Thinopyrum, Elymus, Kengyilia, and Roegneria; and wide hybrids between wheat and related wild species.

Fine mapping of two recessive powdery mildew resistance genes from Aegilops tauschii accession CIae8. TAG. THEORETICAL AND APPLIED GENETICS. THEORETISCHE UND ANGEWANDTE GENETIK 2023; 136:206.

Abstract
KEY MESSAGE Two recessive powdery mildew resistance loci pmAeCIae8_2DS and pmAeCIae8_7DS from Aegilops tauschii were mapped and two synthesized hexaploid wheat lines were developed by distant hybridization. Wheat powdery mildew (Pm), one of the worldwide destructive fungal diseases, causes significant yield loss up to 30%. The identification of new Pm resistance genes will enrich the genetic diversity of wheat breeding for Pm resistance. Aegilops tauschii is the ancestor donor of sub-genome D of hexaploid wheat. It provides beneficial genes that can be easily transferred into wheat by producing synthetic hexaploid wheat followed by genetic recombination. We assessed the Pm resistance level of 35 Ae. tauschii accessions from different origins. Accession CIae8 exhibited high Pm resistance. Inheritance analysis and gene mapping were performed using F2 and F2:3 populations derived from the cross between CIae8 and a Pm susceptible accession PI574467. The Pm resistance of CIae8 was controlled by two independent recessive genes. Bulked segregate analysis using a 55 K SNP array revealed the SNPs were mainly enriched into genome regions, i.e. 2DS (13.5-20 Mb) and 7DS (4.0-15.5 Mb). The Pm resistance loci were named as pmAeCIae8_2DS and pmAeCIae8_7DS, respectively. By recombinant screening, we narrowed the pmAeCIae8_2DS into a 370-kb interval flanked by markers CINAU-AE7800 (14.89 Mb) and CINAU-AE20 (15.26 Mb), and narrowed the pmAeCIae8_7DS into a 260-kb interval flanked by markers CINAU-AE58 (4.72 Mb) and CINAU-AE25 (4.98 Mb). The molecular markers closely linked with the resistance loci were developed, and two synthesized hexaploid wheat (SHW) lines were produced. These laid the foundation for cloning of the two resistance loci and for transferring the resistance into common wheat.

Chromosoma 2023:10.1007/s00412-023-00789-4. [PMID: 36905415 DOI: 10.1007/s00412-023-00789-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/19/2022] [Revised: 11/16/2022] [Accepted: 02/22/2023] [Indexed: 03/12/2023]
Abstract
Fluorescence in situ hybridization is a powerful tool that enables plant researchers to perform systematic, evolutionary, and population studies of wheat wild relatives as well as to characterize alien introgression into the wheat genome. This retrospective review reflects on progress made in the development of methods for creating new chromosomal markers since the launch of this cytogenetic satellite instrument to the present day. DNA probes based on satellite repeats have been widely used for chromosome analysis, especially for "classical" wheat probes (pSc119.2 and Afa family) and "universal" repeats (45S rDNA, 5S rDNA, and microsatellites). The rapid development of new-generation sequencing and bioinformatical tools, and the application of oligo- and multioligonucleotides has resulted in an explosion in the discovery of new genome- and chromosome-specific chromosome markers. Owing to modern technologies, new chromosomal markers are appearing at an unprecedented velocity. The present review describes the specifics of localization when employing commonly used vs. newly developed probes for chromosomes in J, E, V, St, Y, and P genomes and their diploid and polyploid carriers Agropyron, Dasypyrum, Thinopyrum, Pseudoroegneria, Elymus, Roegneria, and Kengyilia. Particular attention is paid to the specificity of probes, which determines their applicability for the detection of alien introgression to enhance the genetic diversity of wheat through wide hybridization. The information from the reviewed articles is summarized into the TRepeT database, which may be useful for studying the cytogenetics of Triticeae. The review describes the trends in the development of technology used in establishing chromosomal markers that can be used for prediction and foresight in the field of molecular biology and in methods of cytogenetic analysis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Dasypyrum villosum (2n = 2x = 14) harbours potentially beneficial genes for hexaploid and tetraploid wheat improvement. Highly diversified chromosome variation exists among and within accessions due to its open-pollination nature. The wheat-D. villosum T6VS·6AL translocation was widely used in breeding mainly because gene Pm21 in the 6VS segment conferred high and lasting powdery mildew resistance. However, the widespread use of this translocation may narrow the genetic base of wheat. A better solution is to utilize diversified D. villosum accessions as the genetic source for wheat breeding. Analysis of cytological and genetic polymorphisms among D. villosum accessions also provides genetic evolution information on the species. Using cytogenetic and molecular tools we analysed genetic polymorphisms among D. villosum accessions and developed consensus karyotypes to assist the introgression of beneficial genes from D. villosum into wheat. METHODS A multiplex probe of repeats for FISH, GISH and molecular markers were used to detect chromosome polymorphisms among D. villosum accessions. Polymorphic signal block types, chromosome heterogeneity and heterozygosity, and chromosome polymorphic information content were used in genetic diversity analysis. KEY RESULTS Consensus karyotypes of D. villosum were developed, and the homoeologous statuses of individual D. villosum chromosomes relative to wheat were determined. Tandem repeat probes of pSc119.2, (GAA)10 and the AFA family produced high-resolution signals and not only showed different signal patterns in D. villosum chromosomes but also revealed the varied distribution of tandem repeats among chromosomes and accessions. A total of 106 polymorphic chromosomes were identified from 13 D. villosum accessions and high levels of chromosomal heterozygosity and heterogeneity were observed. A subset of 56 polymorphic chromosomes was transferred into durum wheat through wide crosses, and seven polymorphic chromosomes are described in two newly developed durum-D. villosum amphidiploids. CONCLUSIONS Consensus karyotypes of D. villosum and oligonucleotide FISH facilitated identification of polymorphic signal blocks and a high level of chromosomal heterozygosity and heterogeneity among D. villosum accessions, seen in newly developed amphiploids. The abundant genetic diversity of D. villosum and range of alleles, exploitable through interploid crosses, backcrosses and recombination (chromosome engineering), allow introduction of biotic and abiotic stress resistances into wheat, translating into increasing yield, end-use quality and crop sustainability.

Abstract
The middle to lower reaches of the Yangtze River are China's second largest area for wheat production; wheat disease is more serious there than in other areas because of the high humidity and warm weather. However, most cultivated varieties are susceptible to Fusarium head blight (FHB), powdery mildew, and stripe rust, and the lack of disease-resistant germplasm is an obstacle in wheat breeding. Rye and Thinopyrum elongatum, related species of wheat, carry many genes involved in disease resistance. In this study, a trigeneric hybrid, YZU21, with resistance to FHB, powdery mildew, and stripe rust was used to improve two major wheat cultivars, Ningmai 13 (NM13) and Yangmai 23 (YM23). Specific molecular markers and GISH were used to identify hybrid progenies. Five addition or substitution lines and one translocation line of the Triticum-Secale-Thinopyrum trigeneric hybrid were obtained and evaluated for agronomic traits and the resistance to multiple diseases. The results showed that the six trigeneric hybrid lines had desirable agronomic traits and improved resistance to FHB, powdery mildew, and stripe rust; they might be used as parents in wheat breeding for the resistance to multiple disease.

Abstract
Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) is a basic tool that is widely used in cytogenetic research. The detection efficiency of conventional FISH is limited due to its time-consuming nature. Oligonucleotide (oligo) probes with fluorescent labels have been applied in non-denaturing FISH (ND-FISH) assays, which greatly streamline experimental processes and save costs and time. Agropyron cristatum, which contains one basic genome, "P," is a vital wild relative for wheat improvement. However, oligo probes for detecting P-genome chromosomes based on ND-FISH assays have not been reported. In this study, according to the distribution of transposable elements (TEs) in Triticeae genomes, 94 oligo probes were designed based on three types of A. cristatum sequences. ND-FISH validation showed that 12 single oligo probes generated a stable and obvious hybridization signal on whole P chromosomes in the wheat background. To improve signal intensity, mixed probes (Oligo-pAc) were prepared by using the 12 successful probes and validated in the diploid accession A. cristatum Z1842, a small segmental translocation line and six allopolyploid wild relatives containing the P genome. The signals of Oligo-pAc covered the entire chromosomes of A. cristatum and were more intense than those of single probes. The results indicate that Oligo-pAc can replace conventional genomic in situ hybridization (GISH) probes to identify P chromosomes or segments in non-P-genome backgrounds. Finally, we provide a rapid and efficient method specifically for detecting P chromosomes in wheat backgrounds by combining the Oligo-pAc probe with the Oligo-pSc119.2-1 and Oligo-pTa535-1 probes, which can replace conventional sequential GISH/FISH assays. Altogether, we developed a set of oligo probes based on the ND-FISH assays to identify P-genome chromosomes, which can promote utilization of A. cristatum in wheat improvement programs.

THEORETICAL AND APPLIED GENETICS. THEORETISCHE UND ANGEWANDTE GENETIK 2022; 135:2041-2057. [PMID: 35451594 DOI: 10.1007/s00122-022-04092-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/22/2021] [Accepted: 03/26/2022] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
A new wheat-Thinopyrum ponticum translocation line with excellent powdery mildew resistance was produced, and alien-specific PCR markers and FISH probes were developed by SLAF-seq. Powdery mildew is one of the most threatening diseases in wheat production. Thinopyrum ponticum (Podp.) Barkworth and D. R. Dewey, as a wild relative, has been used for wheat genetic improvement for the better part of a century. In view of the good powdery mildew resistance of Th. ponticum, we have been working to transfer the resistance genes from Th. ponticum to wheat by creating translocation lines. In this study, a new wheat-Th. ponticum translocation line with excellent resistance and agronomic performance was developed and through seedling disease evaluation, gene postulation and diagnostic marker analysis proved to carry a novel Pm gene derived from Th. ponticum. Cytogenetic analysis revealed that a small alien segment was translocated to the terminal of chromosome 1D to form new translocation TTh-1DS·1DL chromosome. The translocation breakpoint was determined to lie in 21.5 Mb region of chromosome 1D by using Wheat660K SNP array analysis. Based on specific-locus amplified fragment sequencing (SLAF-seq) technology, eight molecular markers and one repetitive sequence probe were developed, which were specific for Th. ponticum. Fortunately, the probe could be used in distinguishing six alien chromosome pairs in partial amphiploid Xiaoyan 7430 by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). Furthermore, a Thinopyrum-specific oligonucleotide probe was designed depending on the sequence information of the FISH probe. The novel translocation line could be used in wheat disease resistance breeding, and these specific markers and probes will enable wheat breeders to rapidly trace the alien genome with the novel Pm gene(s).

Genome 2021; 64:789-800.

Abstract
The perennial species Dasypyrum breviaristatum (genome Vb) contains many potentially valuable genes for the improvement of common wheat. Construction of a detailed karyotype of D. breviaristatum chromosomes will be useful for the detection of Dasypyrum chromatin in wheat background. We established the standard karyotype of 1Vb-7Vb chromosomes through nondenaturing fluorescence in situ hybridization (ND-FISH) technique using 28 oligonucleotide probes from the wheat - D. breviaristatum partial amphiploid TDH-2 (AABBVbVb) and newly identified wheat - D. breviaristatum disomic translocation and addition lines D2138 (6VbS.2VbL), D2547 (4Vb), and D2532 (3VbS.6VbL) by comparative molecular marker analysis. The ND-FISH with multiple oligo probes was conducted on the durum wheat - D. villosum amphiploid TDV-1 and large karyotype differences between D. breviaristatum and D. villosum was revealed. These ND-FISH probes will be valuable for screening the wheat - Dasypyrum derivative lines for chromosome identification, and the newly developed wheat - D. breviaristatum addition lines may broaden the gene pool of wheat breeding. The differences between D. villosum and D. breviaristatum chromosomes revealed by ND-FISH will help us understand evolutionary divergence of repetitive sequences within the genus Dasypyrum.
