“…Comparing our results to the karyotype reported by Bareka et al (2012), we see two differences. One is the 5S rDNA locus on the long arm of chromosome 1, and the other is the CMA 3 positive band on the long arm of chromosome 2, which is co-localized with the 5S rDNA signal in the results of Bareka et al (2012).…”

The difference in 5S rDNA locus on chromosome 1 might be an intraspecific variation in B. romana, or it may be caused by the sensitivity of the FISH experiment; the 5S rDNA signal on chromosome 1 was very weak in our experiment.…”

“…B. romana L. is a species growing in south Europe and has only four pairs of chromosomes in its somatic cells. Its exact karyotype has been reported by Maggini and de Dominicis (1977) and Bareka et al (2012). Chromomycine A 3 (CMA 3 ) bands and FISH with 18S and 5S rDNAs have also been reported (Bareka et al 2012).…”

“…Four pairs of B. romana chromosomes are distinguished by their chromosome shape and chromosome markers. Bareka et al (2012) reported interspecific karyotype variation in the genus Bellevalia; the chromosome shapes are similar among the species of this genus, but the pattern of chromosome markers shows species having unique chromosome characters, and intraspecies variation has not been reported. In this report, we reanalyzed the chromosomes of B. romana by using several techniques, including aceto-orcein staining, C-banding staining, Ag-staining, and CMA 3 staining.…”

Chromosome Bandings and Signal Pattern of FISH Using rDNAs in <i>Bellevalia romana</i>

SummaryThe karyotype of Bellevalia romana L., which is composed of two long metacentric chromosomes (chromosome 1), two short subtelocentric chromosomes (chromosome 2), and four short submetacentric chromosomes (chromosomes 3 and 4), were analyzed by several techniques. C-bands, CMA 3 bands, Ag-staining bands, and FISH signals of 18S rDNA appeared at the same sites on the end of an arm of chromosomes 1 and 3. A large FISH signal with 5S rDNA was localized at the end of the long arm of chromosome 2, and a small signal appeared at the interstitial region of the long arm of chromosome 1. When compared with a previous report, there were differences in the CMA 3 band on chromosome 2 and a small 5S rDNA signal on chromosome 1.
