FISH mapping of TcSAT1 and TcSAT2 satellite DNA repeats and Arabidopsis-type (TTTAGGG)n telomeric repeats on meiotic pachytene (a–d) and diakinesis (e–g) chromosomes of T. cinerariifolium (2n = 18). (a) Rabl formation showed with telomeric sequence TTTAGGG (red) and TcSAT1 (green) as probes. (b–g) TcSAT1 (green) and/or TcSAT2 (red). (a,g) accession Africa-7, (c,d) accession 32-2, (e,f) accession 53-3. Arrow in (b–d) mark association of TcSAT1 and TcSAT2 sites. Bivalents in (f) are arranged according to metaphase chromosomes shown on the Figure 2p. Arrow in (f) points to a bivalents that show heterozygosity of subtelomeric heterochromatin. Arrow in (g) indicates connection between non-homologous chromosomes. Scale bar, 10 μm.
