Immunolocalization of γH2AX in male meiocytes of different alleles. (A) γH2AX localization on zygotene stage chromosomes of wild type, atm-2, atm-5, atr-2, and atm-5 atr-2 respectively. (B) γH2AX localization on pachytene stage chromosomes of wild type, atm-2, atm-5, atr-2, and atm-5 atr-2 respectively. (C) Number of γH2AX foci per cell in zygotene stage in different alleles: wild type (204.07 ± 10.64, n = 30), atm-2 (146.84 ± 18.55, n = 32, P = 1.40E-11), atm-5 (152.3 ± 6.59, n = 30, P = 2.91E-11), atr-2 (208.48 ± 24.83, n = 33, P = 4.36E-1) and atm-5 atr-2 (21.1 ± 6.58, n = 29, P = 4.31E-11). (D) Number of γH2AX foci per cell in pachytene stage in different alleles: wild type (80.2 ± 10.31, n = 30), atm-2 (47.31 ± 10.02, n = 31, P = 6.27E-11), atm-5 (51.07 ± 5.33, n = 30, P = 2.93E-11), atr-2 (72.44 ± 15.66, n = 33, P = 1.86E-2) and atm-5 atr-2 (18.64 ± 5.86, n = 36, P = 3.64E-12). Bar = 5 μm. NS: P > 0.05, ***P < 0.001 (Wilcoxon Rank Sum test). Cells counted in each allele are from at least 30 plants. The atm-2 and atm-5 are two independent atm mutant alleles.
