The major 45S rDNA locus-carrying chromosome arm shows increased chiasmata in asy1 but not in pch2 or the WT. (A) Top: B. rapa chromosomes organized by size with 5S and 45S rDNA clusters detected by FISH. Bottom: a representative WT cell after FISH. (B) Percentage of #3 rod bivalents with a chiasma in the 45S-carrying arm (‘45S yes’, example FISH image right) or in the opposite arm (‘45S no’, example FISH image left). Total number of rod bivalents scored: WT 41, pch2 16, asy1 36. FISH images: 5S (red), 45S (green); DNA is counterstained with DAPI and shown in blue.
