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.

PLANTS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 12:2816. [PMID: 37570972 PMCID: PMC10420648 DOI: 10.3390/plants12152816] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/19/2023] [Revised: 07/19/2023] [Accepted: 07/27/2023] [Indexed: 08/13/2023]
Abstract
Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) is an indispensable technique for studying chromosomes in plants. However, traditional FISH methods, such as BAC, rDNA, tandem repeats, and distributed repetitive sequence probe-based FISH, have certain limitations, including difficulties in probe synthesis, low sensitivity, cross-hybridization, and limited resolution. In contrast, oligo-based FISH represents a more efficient method for chromosomal studies in plants. Oligo probes are computationally designed and synthesized for any plant species with a sequenced genome and are suitable for single and repetitive DNA sequences, entire chromosomes, or chromosomal segments. Furthermore, oligo probes used in the FISH experiment provide high specificity, resolution, and multiplexing. Moreover, oligo probes made from one species are applicable for studying other genetically and taxonomically related species whose genome has not been sequenced yet, facilitating molecular cytogenetic studies of non-model plants. However, there are some limitations of oligo probes that should be considered, such as requiring prior knowledge of the probe design process and FISH signal issues with shorter probes of background noises during oligo-FISH experiments. This review comprehensively discusses de novo oligo probe synthesis with more focus on single-copy DNA sequences, preparation, improvement, and factors that affect oligo-FISH efficiency. Furthermore, this review highlights recent applications of oligo-FISH in a wide range of plant chromosomal studies.
