Title: Dual-color oligo-FISH can reveal chromosomal variations and evolution in Oryza species. Author: Liu X, Sun S, Wu Y, Zhou Y, Gu S, Yu H, Yi C, Gu M, Jiang J, Liu B, Zhang T, Gong Z. Journal: Plant J; 2020 Jan; 101(1):112-121. PubMed ID: 31494982. Abstract: Fluorescence in situ hybridization using probes based on oligonucleotides (oligo-FISH) is a useful tool for chromosome identification and karyotype analysis. Here we developed two oligo-FISH probes that allow the identification of each of the 12 pairs of chromosomes in rice (Oryza sativa). These two probes comprised 25 717 (green) and 25 215 (red) oligos (45 nucleotides), respectively, and generated 26 distinct FISH signals that can be used as a barcode to uniquely label each of the 12 pairs of rice chromosomes. Standard karyotypes of rice were established using this system on both mitotic and meiotic chromosomes. Moreover, dual-color oligo-FISH was used to characterize diverse chromosomal abnormalities. Oligo-FISH analyses using these probes in various wild Oryza species revealed that chromosomes from the AA, BB or CC genomes generated specific and intense signals similar to those in rice, while chromosomes with the EE genome generated less specific signals and the FF genome gave no signal. Together, the oligo-FISH probes we established will be a powerful tool for studying chromosome variations and evolution in the genus Oryza.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
