An investigation of the karyotypes of two species of the genus Brachymystax (B. lenok and B. tumensis) has been done for the Russia Primorye rivers running to the East Sea basin, and others belonging to Amur basin. Based on the analysis of two species chromosome characteristics, combined with original and literary data, four cytotypes have been described. One of these cytotypes (Cytotype I: 2n=90, NF=110-118) was the most common. This common cytotype belongs to B. tumensis from the rivers of the East Sea basin and B. lenok from the rivers of the Amur basin, i.e. extends to the zones of allopatry. In the rivers of the Amur river basin, in the zone of the sympatric habitat of two species, each taxon has karyotypes with different chromosome numbers, B. tumensis (2n=92) and B. lenok (2n=90). Because of the ability to determine a number of the chromosome arms for these two species, additional cytotype have been identified for B. tumensis: Cytotype II with 2n=92, NF=110-124 in the rivers basins of the Yellow sea and Amur river and for B. lenok three cytotypes: Cytotype I: 2n=90, NF=110 in the Amur river basin; Cytotype III with 2n=90, NF=106-126 in the Amur river basin and Cytotypes IV with 2n=92, NF=102 in the Baikal lake.

A karyotype of cytotype BB plant in Scilla scilloides Complex was established and the frequency of B-chromosomes were investigated. Chromosome complements of BB genome were composed of five pairs of subtelocentric and four pairs of metacentric chromosomes. Chromosome 1 has satellite with nucleolar organizer. Polymorphism was found in chromosome 2. The karyotype of cytotype BB will be available for analysis of genome composition in various cytotypes of S. scilloides Complex. The frequency of B-chromosome was 78.6%. Numbers of B-chromosome ranged from 1 to 4 and plants with 2B-chromosomes were predominant (57.2%). Two type of B-chromosomes, F and F', were found; F is a large iso-chromosome and F' a small one.

Polyploidization plays an important role in generating the current high diversity of plants. Studies of the distributional patterns of diploid and derivative polyploid races have provided important insights into the evolutionary process and cryptic speciation by polyploidization within and between closely related taxa defined on the basis of their morphology. Allium thunbergii and A. sacculiferum, occurring throughout eastern Russia, eastern China, Korea, and Japan, are examples of closely related species with unsolved taxonomic relationships. A total of 97 and 65 individuals from 26 and 13 populations of A. thunbergii (including var. thunbergii, var. deltoids, and var. teretifolium) and A. sacculiferum, respectively, were studied to determine their ploidy. The geographic structure and habitat differentiation of the cytotypes were also analyzed. The main cytotype of A. thunbergii was diploid (92.3% in total; the rest were tetraploids). In contrast, the majority of A. sacculiferum plants were tetraploids (69.2% of the total; the rest were diploids). No populations of the studied taxa harbored both cytotypes. Allium thunbergii was more often found at higher elevations than A. sacculiferum, and it tended to occur more frequently on rocky slopes and below forests in mountainous areas. On the other hand, A. sacculiferum occurred at forest margins and in lowland pastures. The cytotypes differed with respect to the elevation; diploids were found more frequently at higher elevations than tetraploids. The results of this study and additional biosystematics data indicate that the morphological characteristics of A. thunbergii and A. sacculiferum may be influenced by polyploidization and by their adaptation to various habitat conditions and that A. thunbergii and A. sacculiferum do not clearly fulfill the requirements of any species concept. Consequently, we propose that A. sacculiferum be considered as an additional synonym of A. thunbergii. Additionally, Allium thunbergii var. deltoides is unified into A. thunbergii var. thunbergii.

기존 보고된 바에 의하면 한국 자생 버뮤다그래스는 군집 내에서 형태학, 생육 특성, 세포학적 특성에 대해 유전적으로 매우 다양한 변이를 보여주었다. 버뮤다그래스의 염색체 수와 핵 DNA 량에 따르면 배수성 수준의 범위가, 3배 체(2n=3x), 4배체(2n=4x), 5배체(2n=5x), 6배체(2n=6x)로 나타났었다. 본 연구에서는 한국에서 휴면이 유도되는저온과 짧은 일장에 대한 항산화효소(superoxide dismutase, catalase, peroxidase, ascorbate peroxidase)의 다양한 반응과 각 버뮤다그래스 세포형의 세포막 안정성을 조사하였다. 모든 항산화효소는 휴면 기간동안 높게 나타났으나, 과산화수소를 물과 산소 분자로 변환시키는 헴기를 함유한 카탈라제는 6배체 버뮤다그래스를 제외한 세 개의 세포형에서 휴면이 개시되기 전에 활성화되었다. 상대적으로 세엽이며 생육속도가 빠른3배체와 4배체는 superoxide dismutase와 peroxidase 효소의 활성이 증가됨을 확인하였다. 수산기를 가진 라디칼에 의해 손상을 받은 세포막에서 지질과산화의 산물인 말론디알데히드(MDA)는 온도가 감소함에 따라 모든 세포형에서 증가되었고, 방어적인 항산화효소를 더 갖고 있는 3배체와 4배체는 MDA 생산이 현저하게 더 낮게 나타났다. 전해질 유출은 5배체와 6배체에서 더 높았던 것과 유사하게, 저온이 적용될 때 외견상으로 세포막에 더 손상을 받는 것 같았다. 실험 결과, 서로 다른 세포형(cytotype)의 항산화 반응은 유전적으로 특이적이며, 이는 버뮤다그래스에서 저온 저항성과의 연관성을 분자 수준에서 더 연구하는 것이 필요하다.

무릇 (S. scilloides Complex)에서 게놈 유형이 다른 AA, BB 및 AABB 게놈 식물의 조직배양을 통하여 유도된 재분화체를 대상으로 RAPD기법을 이용한 유전적 분석을 통해 게놈의 안정성과 게놈 유형에 따른 차이를 분석한 결과, 적용한 20가지의 primer중 Al, A2및 A3에서 게놈 유형에 따른 다형현상을 관찰할 수 있었다. RAPD분석 결과 AA게놈에서 39.2%로 다형성이 세 가지 유형 중 가장 낮게 나타났으며, BB 게놈에서는 72.3%로 가장 높은 다형성을 보였고, AABB 게놈에서는 45.7%의 다형성이 관찰되었다. AA유형에서 관찰된 총 110개의 밴드 중 특이 밴드가 A3에서 하나 나타나 0.9%의 변이율을 보였으며, BB 게놈의 경우 총 116개의 밴드 중 특이 밴드는 A3에서 5개 나타나 4.3%의 변이율을 보여 주었고, AABB유형에서는 총 103개의 밴드 중 특이 밴드가 Al에서 2개, A2에서 1개, A3에서 2개로 총 5개가 나타나 4.9%의 변이율을 나타내었다. RAPD 분석은 게놈 유형이 다른 무릇 체세포클론의 유전적인 안정성 분석에 유용하게 이용될 수 있다.

Wild relative species of domesticated crops are useful genetic resources for improving agronomic traits. Cytogenetic investigations based on chromosome composition provide insight into basic genetic and genomic characteristics of a species that can be exploited in a breeding program. Here, we used FISH analysis to characterize the ploidy level, chromosome constitution, and genomic distribution o f 5S and 4 5S r ibosomal DNA (rDNA) in four wild Cucurbitaceae species, namely, Citrullus lanatus (Thunb.) Mansf. var. citroides L. H. Bailey (2n = 22), Melothria japonica Maxim. (2n = 22), Sicyos angulatus L. (2n = 24), and Trichosanthes kirilowii Maxim. (2n = 66, 88, 110 cytotypes), collected in different areas of Korea. All species were diploids, except for T. kirilowii, which included hexa-, octa-, and decaploid cytotypes (2n = 6x = 66, 8x = 88, and 10x = 110). All species have small metaphase chromosomes in the range of $2-5{\mu}m$. The 45S rDNA signals were localized distally compared to the 5S rDNA. C. lanatus var. citroides and M. japonica showed one and two loci of 45S and 5S rDNA, respectively, with co-localization of rDNA signals in one M. japonica chromosome. S. angulatus showed two co-localized signals of 5S and 45S rDNA loci. The hexaploid T. kirilowii cytotype showed five signals each for 45S and 5S rDNA, with three being co-localized. This is the first report of hexaploid and decaploid cytotypes in T. kirilowii. These results will be useful in future Cucurbitaceae breeding programs.
