    Abstract:
    Using the model of synthetic allopolyploid Aegilops longissima TL05 x Triticum urartu TMU06 of the first generation, the degree and character of changes in subtelomeric, microsatellite and random amplified DNA sequences (RAPD) on early stage of polyploidization was estimated. Study of genome changes was performed by comparing of PCR spectra obtained while amplifying genome DNA of allopolyploid and its parental forms. For analysis of subtelomeric DNA, we used 66 pairs of primers composed of 11 singular primers designed for subtelomere DNA sequences of cereals. RAPD analysis was performed with usage of 38 primers, in microsatellite (SSR) analysis 23 primer pairs were used. RAPD analysis appeared to be a more effective PCR-based method to identify genome changes. Absence of some PCR fragments typical for parental genome in RAPD specters of allopolyploid TL05 x TMU06 was shown using 13 primers of 38 (34%), and with usage of subtelomere primers such changes in PSR specters were shown only for one of 66 pays of primers (1.5%). SSR loci were stable during the polyploidization process. Subsequent analysis of PCR fragments absent in specter of synthetic allopolyploid showed that high level of genome changes in RAPD analysis is probably connected with more effective ability of this method to reveal point mutations. Some data was found suggesting that not all genome changes observed in experimentally synthesized allopolyploids of the first generation are consequences of coadaptation of few genomes in one nucleus.
