Research Abstract |
To identify an extra chromosome observed in interspecific hybrid between Torenia fournieri (2n=2x=18) and Torenia baillonii (2n=2x=16) at DNA level, 169 SSR markers were developed using fosmid and cDNA clone sequences and a partial linkage map was constructed in F_2 population of T. fournieri and T. violacea. Next, fosmid-FISH analysis has been conducted to screen fosmid clones derived from the extra chromosome, but the FISH signals of 19 clones tested did not formed on the extra chromosome. In addition, phylogenic analysis including other 7 Torenia species collected in south Asia suggests a hypothesis that T. baillonii lost the extra chromosome during the speciation.
