Abstract:
This article aims to study the homoeologous chromosome pairing and translocation induced by 5A/5R x 6A/6R wheat-rye substitution lines. To clarify the mechanism of homoeologous chromosome pairing and create wheat-rye translocation lines, two wheat-rye substitution lines, 5A/5R and 6A/6R were crossed. The chromosome behavior of pollen mother cells (PMCs) in meiosis was investigated in hybrid F1. Homoeologous chromosome pairing between wheat and rye occurred in 22.91% of PMC. Wheat-rye translocation lines were identified via C-banding and in situ hybridization (GISH) in hybrid F2 and later generations. In F2 generation, translocations happened in 9 of 45 plants, reached to 20%. These translocation lines were generated from homoeologous chromosome pairing, or mis-division and reconstruction of univalent chromosomes.

Trihybrid Crosses
Some of Mendel’s crosses examined three pairs of contrasting characteristics. Such a cross is called a trihybrid cross. A trihybrid cross is a combination of three individual monohybrid crosses. For example, plant height (tall vs. short), seed shape (round vs. wrinkled), and seed color (yellow vs. green).
The F1 generation plants of a trihybrid cross are heterozygous for all three traits and produce eight gametes. Upon self-fertilization, these gametes have an equal chance to...

Crossing Over
The homologous pairs of sister chromosomes—one from the maternal and one from the paternal genome—then begin to align alongside each other lengthwise, matching corresponding DNA positions in a process called synapsis.
