Figure 1

Oligo painting FISH on mitotic metaphase plates of three species of Musa. (A) M. acuminata ssp. malaccensis “Pahang” (2n = 22, AA; chromosome 1 in red, chromosome 3 in green). (B) M. balbisiana “Tani” (2n = 22, BB; chromosome 1 in red, chromosome 3 in green). (C) M. acuminata ssp. malaccensis “Pahang” (2n = 22, AA; short arm of chromosome 4 in green, its long arm in red). (D) M. acuminata ssp. malaccensis “Pahang” (2n = 22, AA; short arm of chromosome 5 in red, its long arm in green). (E) M. acuminata ssp. malaccensis “Pahang” (2n = 22, AA; chromosome 6 in red, chromosome 7 in green. (F) M. acuminata ssp. malaccensis “Pahang” (2n = 22, AA; chromosome 10 in red, chromosome 11 in green. (G) Musa schizocarpa “Schizocarpa” (2n = 2x = 22, SS; chromosome 8 in red, chromosome 2 in green). (H) Musa schizocarpa “Schizocarpa” (2n = 2x = 22, SS; chromosome 11 in red, chromosome 9 in green). Chromosomes were counterstained with DAPI (blue). Arrows point to the region of chromosome 3 translocated to chromosome 1 in M. balbisiana. Bars = 5 µm.
