DEVELOPMENTAL INSTABILITY AND HIGH MERISTIC COUNTS IN INTERSPECIFIC HYBRIDS OF SALMONID FISHES

Genomic instability within centromeres of interspecific marsupial hybrids.

Several lines of evidence suggest that, within a lineage, particular genomic regions are subject to instability that can lead to specific types of chromosome rearrangements important in species incompatibility. Within family Macropodidae (kangaroos, wallabies, bettongs, and potoroos), which exhibit recent and extensive karyotypic evolution, rearrangements involve chiefly the centromere. We prop...

Interspecific Hybrids

The regulation of gene expression is essential for organismal form, function, and fitness. Complex organismal development from zygote to adult requires finely tuned expression of genes in space, time, and abundance. Proper expression of genes is also required for most other aspects of physiology and function. Even minor changes in gene expression have the potential to significantly impact pheno...

Meiotic behavior of interspecific hybrids

The meiotic behavior of four interspecific promising hybrids was evaluated by conventional cytological methods. The female genitors were two artificially tetraploidized sexual accessions of B. ruziziensis (R41 and R44, 2n = 4 χ = 36), which were crossed to an agronomically superior natural tetraploid apomictic genotype of B. brizantha (B140 BRA003395). Three of them (HBGC313, HBGC 315, and HBGC...
