[Identification and mapping of polymorphic RAPD markers of pea (Pisum sativum L.) genome].

Various pea cultivars, lines, and mutants were studied by the RAPD method. Polymorphic fragments characteristic of certain pea genotypes and which can be used for identifying genotypes were detected. Inheritance of some polymorphic RAPD fragments was studied. Mendelian inheritance of these fragments was shown. By analyzing the data obtained in studies of RAPD polymorphism, genetic distances between different pea cultivars, lines, and mutants were calculated and a genealogic dendogram showing a varying extent of differences between RAPD patterns was constructed. Ten new RAPD markers linked to various pea genes were detected. Genetic distances between RAPD markers and genes to which they are linked were calculated, and the respective disposition of RAPD markers on chromosomes was established.

Chromosome Mapping↗

[Studying plant genome variation using molecular markers].

The authors' studies on the organization and variation of plant genome with the use of molecular markers are briefly reviewed with special emphasis on random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD), inter simple sequence repeat (ISSR), sequence characterized amplified region (SCAR), and cleaved amplified polymorphic sequence (CAPS) markers detected with the use of polymerase chain reaction (PCR). These markers have been demonstrated to be promising for identifying cultivars and determining the purity of genetic strains of pea. Genetic relationships between strains, cultivars, and mutants of pea have been studied. The role of molecular markers in molecular genetic mapping and localizing the genes of commercially important characters of pea has been shown. The possibility of the use of molecular markers for studying somaclonal variation and detecting mutagenic factors in plants during long-term spaceflights is considered. The prospects of using DNA markers for understanding the organization and variability of higher plant genomes are discussed.

[RAPD-analysis of corn somaclones].

The genetic difference between maize line A188 and A188-derived somaclones was assessed via analysis of randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD). In total, 15 out of 17 decanucleotide primers used each allowed amplification of 2-17 fragments ranging 200-2000 bp. The RAPD patterns did not differ between individual plants of line A188, which demonstrated again its high genetic homogeneity. The difference between the initial line and the somaclones was high, ranging 64-74%. On evidence of the genetic divergence, the somaclones formed two clusters. The distribution of somaclones between these clusters was consistent with their origin.

[Comparative study of the somatic conjugation of chromosomes in the neural ganglia of male and female Drosophila melanogaster D-32].

The frequency of somatic conjugation of the 2nd and 3d chromosome pairs has been analysed in male and female neural ganglia from Drosophila melanogaster larvae D-32 line. The frequency of conjugation found for males was 1.5 times lower than for females. On this basis a supposition concerning less duration of homologous conjugation in males has been put forward. It is suggested that it is due to the differences in space arrangement of homologous chromosomes holding their conjugation.
