Germline-Restricted Chromosomes and Autosomal Variants Revealed by Pachytene Karyotyping of 17 Avian Species
Karyotypes of less than 10% of bird species are known. Using immunolocalization of the synaptonemal complex, the core structure of meiotic chromosomes at the pachytene stage, and centromere proteins, we describe male pachytene karyotypes of 17 species of birds. This method enables higher resolution than the conventional analyses of metaphase chromosomes. We provide the first descriptions of the karyotypes of 3 species (rook, Blyth’s reed warbler, and European pied flycatcher), correct the published data on the karyotypes of 10 species, and confirm them for 4 species. All passerine species examined have highly conservative karyotypes, 2n = 80–82 with 7 pairs of macrochromosomes (including the ZZ sex chromosome pair which was not unambiguously distinguished from other macrochromosomes in most species) and 33–34 pairs of microchromosomes. In all of them, but not in the common cuckoo, we revealed single copies of the germline-restricted chromosomes varying in size and morphology even between closely related species. This indicates a fast evolution of this additional chromosome. The interspecies differences concern the sizes of the macrochromosomes, morphology of the microchromosomes, and sizes of the centromeres. The pachytene cells of the gouldian finch, brambling, and common linnet contain heteromorphic synaptonemal complexes indicating heterozygosity for inversions or centromere shifts. The European pied flycatcher, gouldian finch, and domestic canary have extended centromeres in several macro- and microchromosomes.
期刊介绍:
During the last decades, ''Cytogenetic and Genome Research'' has been the leading forum for original reports and reviews in human and animal cytogenetics, including molecular, clinical and comparative cytogenetics. In recent years, most of its papers have centered on genome research, including gene cloning and sequencing, gene mapping, gene regulation and expression, cancer genetics, comparative genetics, gene linkage and related areas. The journal also publishes key papers on chromosome aberrations in somatic, meiotic and malignant cells. Its scope has expanded to include studies on invertebrate and plant cytogenetics and genomics. Also featured are the vast majority of the reports of the International Workshops on Human Chromosome Mapping, the reports of international human and animal chromosome nomenclature committees, and proceedings of the American and European cytogenetic conferences and other events. In addition to regular issues, the journal has been publishing since 2002 a series of topical issues on a broad variety of themes from cytogenetic and genome research.
