Genetic interactions and natural variation underlying S-RNase-independent unilateral incompatibility in Solanum.

Pistils of self-incompatible (SI) species/populations typically reject pollen of related self-compatible (SC) species/populations, but not vice versa, a pattern known as unilateral incompatibility (UI). UI is complex and includes both S-RNase-dependent and S-RNase-independent mechanisms. Pistils of Solanum pennellii LA0716 (SC, no S-RNase) reject pollen of cultivated tomato, Solanum lycopersicum (SC); UI in this system involves the expression of ornithine decarboxylase2 (ODC2) and HT-A/-B genes in the pistil, and farnesyl pyrophosphate synthase2 (FPS2), ui6.2, and ui12.2 in pollen. We show that IL12-3 (HT-A/-B) × IL3-3 (ODC2) double introgression lines reject S. lycopersicum pollen, while odc2 or ht-a mutants do not, demonstrating that ODC2 and HT-A are required for UI. Transmission ratio distortion in favor of pennellii alleles was observed in interspecific F2 S. lycopersicum × S. pennellii near ui6.2 and ui12.2, and in F2 IL12-3 × IL3-3 near ui12.2. Equivalent populations made with odc2 mutants segregate in Mendelian ratios, while ht-a mutants have little effect, indicating ui6.2 and ui12.2 interact primarily with ODC2. Pollen from fps2 mutants in S. pennellii LA0716 are incompatible on pistils of all tested S. pennellii and some Solanum habrochaites accessions, but compatible with all other tomato clade species, suggesting ODC2-dependent UI evolved in a common ancestor to S. pennellii and S. habrochaites. Within S. habrochaites, fps2 pollen rejection was observed mainly in SI or mixed mating populations, suggesting an association with outcrossing. Triple mutants of S. pennellii and S. habrochaites lacking functional ODC2, HT-A/-B, and S-RNase are cross-compatible as female parents with S. lycopersicum, allowing transfer of their cytoplasmic genomes into cultivated tomato.

Clonal distribution of resistance plasmid-carrying Salmonella typhimurium, mainly in the Middle East.

Strains of Salmonella typhimurium of predominantly Middle Eastern origin, but distributed from England to India, were found to carry at least three types of resistance plasmid. The most important was initially identified as an F(I) plasmid by compatibility tests, but differs from the F factor on the one hand and the F(I) factors R162 and ColV on the other. The three groups of F(I) plasmids can be distinguished by their compatibility reactions with the MP10 plasmid of S. typhimurium (Smith, Humphreys, Grindley, Grindley & Anderson, 1973) and group H(1) factors: the F factor is unilaterally incompatible with group H(1) (Smith, Grindley, Humphreys & Anderson, 1973; Anderson, 1975b); the F(I) factors are compatible with MP10 and group H(1); and F(I)me factors are incompatible with MP10 but compatible with H(1). The majority of S. typhimurium cultures belonged to phage type 208; most of those that did not, belonged to types related to 208. Only a minority of their F(I)me plasmids were autotransferring. The remainder were mobilizable by F-like plasmids, and by group H(1) and H(2) factors, but not by the fi(-) I(1) factor Delta, or by plasmids of the I(2), B, P, W, N and com 7 groups. The compatibility reactions of the autotransferring F(I)me plasmids were identical with those of the non-transferring members of the group, and both were large, single-copy plasmids.The S. typhimurium strains of this series carried A or AK, and SSu resistance determinants: small, probably multicopy, non-transferring plasmids similar to those originally described in phage type 29 of S. typhimurium (Anderson & Lewis, 1965b).These S. typhimurium cultures probably represent a clone of wide geographical distribution. The accurate epidemiological study of such clonal outbreaks requires, in addition to phage typing, precise identification of the plasmids harboured by the epidemic strains, and may have to be carried to the molecular level.F(I)me plasmids were identified in other drug-resistant salmonellas, notably in a strain of S. wien which caused large outbreaks of mainly paediatric infection in Algeria, and also spread to Britain. An F(I)me plasmid was found in S. typhi phage type 44 from Algeria, in which the phage-restricting properties of the plasmid are responsible for the specificity of the type.

Genetic basis for broad interspecific compatibility in Solanum verrucosum.

Solanum verrucosum Schlechtendal (2x = 2n = 24) is unique among the clade 4 Solanum Sect Petota species. In addition to being one of the only fully self-compatible diploid potato species, S. verrucosum is the only clade 4 species that lacks prezygotic interspecific reproductive barriers. This allows S. verrucosum to accept pollen from a broad range of Solanum species and thereby serving as a genetic "bridge" between the cultivated or primary potato gene pool and distantly related wild relatives in the tertiary gene pool. The genetic mechanisms underlying self-compatibility in Solanum often underpin interspecific compatibility interactions, which in S. verrucosum, has been attributed to the lack of S-RNase expression. Using an interspecific F2 mapping population (n = 150), we investigated the genetic mechanisms responsible for the lack of interspecific reproductive barriers in S. verrucosum. This F2 population was evaluated for the ability to accept pollen from two clade 1, 1 EBN species (S. pinnatisectum and S. tarnii); from which two QTL for interspecific compatibility were identified on chromosomes 1 and 11, explaining 56.6% of the phenotypic variation observed. To identify the genetic basis of interspecific compatibility, we generated a chromosome-scale genome assembly of S. verrucosum MSII1813-2 and performed gene expression profiling of reproductive organs. Differential gene expression of S-RNase, located within the chromosome 1 QTL, confirmed the central role of the S-locus and specifically, S-RNase, in interspecific compatibility. Discovery of a non-S-locus QTL is consistent with previous findings that other non-S-locus factors are necessary for interspecific compatibility in S. verrucosum.

Bilateral renal dysplasia (case report).

Bilateral renal dysplasia is a very rare condition, unlike unilateral renal dysplasia. We came across three cases. In one of them there were other multiple congenital anomalies. In all the cases the ureters and renal blood vessels were rudimentary. The condition is incompatible with life. The different theories explaining this congenital anomaly and the incidence of the disease are being discussed.

Inhibition and facilitation of transfer among Pseudomonas aeruginos R plasmids.

Esamining 12 plasmids in Pseudomonas aeruginosa, we found two types of interaction in their transfer (inhibition and facilitation), using donor cells carrying two compatible plasmids. (i) Ten plasmids representing incompatibility groups P-1, P-2, P-5, P-6, and P-7 were all transmissible at a high frequency, 10-2 to 10-1, except for one with a lower frequency of about 10-3. The transfer of P-5 plasmids was inhibited by P-2 plasmids reciprocally or unilaterally, and the unilateral transfer inhibition was observed in other combinations between plasmids belonging to groups P-1, P-2, P-6, and P-7. It was characteristic of Pseudomonas plasmids that most plasmids with high transferability inhibited the transfer of other coexisting plasmids without distinct inhibition of their own transfer. (ii) Two plasmids, Rms149 of P-8 group and Rlb679, which was not classified, were transmissible at an exceptionally low frequency of 10-7 to 10-6, but their transfer was facilitated by plasmids with high transferability.
