Abstract
Salvia is widely used as medicine, food, and ornamental plants all over the world, with three main distribution centers, the Central and western Asia/Mediterranean (CAM), the East Aisa (EA), and the Central and South America (CASA). Along with its large number of species and world-wide distribution, Salvia is paraphyletic with multiple diversity. Chloroplast genomes (CPs) are useful tools for analyzing the phylogeny of plants at lower taxonomic levels. In this study, we reported chloroplast genomes of five species of Salvia and performed phylogenetic analysis with current available CPs of Salvia. Repeated sequence analysis and comparative analysis of Salvia CPs were also performed with representative species from different distribution centers. The results showed that the genetic characters of the CPs are related to the geographic distribution of plants. Species from CAM diverged first to form a separate group, followed by species from EA, and finally species from CASA. Larger variations of CPs were observed in species from CAM, whereas more deficient sequences and less repeated sequences in the CPs were observed in species from CASA. These results provide valuable information on the development and utilization of the worldwide genetic resources of Salvia.

SSR-Sequencing Reveals the Inter- and Intraspecific Genetic Variation and Phylogenetic Relationships among an Extensive Collection of Radish ( Raphanus) Germplasm Resources. BIOLOGY 2021; 10:biology10121250. [PMID: 34943165 PMCID: PMC8698774 DOI: 10.3390/biology10121250] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/18/2021] [Revised: 11/14/2021] [Accepted: 11/22/2021] [Indexed: 11/29/2022]
Abstract
Simple Summary Raphanus is an important genus of Brassicaceae and has undergone a lengthy evolutionary process. However, the inter- and intraspecific phylogenetic relationships and genetic diversity are not well understood. To elucidate these issues, we SSR-sequenced 939 wild, semi-wild and cultivated accessions, and discovered that Europe was the origin center of radishes with diverse European wild radishes, and Europe, South Asia and East Asia might be three independent domestication centers. There was considerable genetic differentiation within European cultivated radishes. European primitive cultivated radish exhibited gene flow with black radish/oil radish and rat-tail radish. Among Asian cultivated radishes, rat-tail radish was a sister to the clade of Chines big radish (including Japanese wild radish), suggesting that they may share the most recent common ancestry. Japanese wild radish had strong gene exchange with Japanese/Korea big radish, oil radish and rat-tail radish. American wild radish developed from natural hybridization between European wild radish and European small radish. All these demonstrated that European primitive cultivated type, American wild radish and Japanese wild radish might have played indispensable roles in radish evolution. Our study provides new perspectives into the origin, evolution and genetic diversity of Raphanus and facilitates the conservation and exploitation of radish germplasm resources. Abstract Raphanus has undergone a lengthy evolutionary process and has rich diversity. However, the inter- and intraspecific phylogenetic relationships and genetic diversity of this genus are not well understood. Through SSR-sequencing and multi-analysis of 939 wild, semi-wild and cultivated accessions, we discovered that the European wild radish (EWR) population is separated from cultivated radishes and has a higher genetic diversity. Frequent intraspecific genetic exchanges occurred in the whole cultivated radish (WCR) population; there was considerable genetic differentiation within the European cultivated radish (ECR) population, which could drive radish diversity formation. Among the ECR subpopulations, European primitive cultivated radishes (EPCRs) with higher genetic diversity are most closely related to the EWR population and exhibit a gene flow with rat-tail radishes (RTRs) and black radishes (BRs)/oil radishes (ORs). Among Asian cultivated radishes (ACRs), Chinese big radishes (CBRs) with a relatively high diversity are furthest from the EWR population, and most Japanese/Korean big radishes (JKBRs) are close to CBR accessions, except for a few old Japanese landraces that are closer to the EPCR. The CBR and JKBR accessions are independent of RTR accessions; however, phylogenetic analysis indicates that the RTR is sister to the clade of CBR (including JWR), which suggests that the RTR may share the most recent common ancestry with CBRs and JWRs. In addition, Japanese wild radishes (JWRs), (namely, R. sativus forma raphanistroides) are mainly scattered between CBRs and EPCRs in PCoA analysis. Moreover, JWRs have a strong gene exchange with the JKBR, OR and RTR subpopulations. American wild radishes (AWRs) are closely related to European wild and cultivated radishes, and have a gene flow with European small radishes (ESRs), suggesting that the AWR developed from natural hybridization between the EWR and the ESR. Overall, this demonstrates that Europe was the origin center of the radish, and that Europe, South Asia and East Asia appear to have been three independent domestication centers. The EPCR, AWR and JWR, as semi-wild populations, might have played indispensable transitional roles in radish evolution. Our study provides new perspectives into the origin, evolution and genetic diversity of Raphanus and facilitates the conservation and exploitation of radish germplasm resources.

Abstract
Alloplasmic lines are a suitable model for studying molecular coevolution and interrelations between genetic systems of plant cells. Whole chloroplast (cp) and mitochondrial (mt) genome sequences were obtained by the MiSeq System (Illumina). Organelle DNA samples were prepared from a set of 12 alloplasmic barley lines with different cytoplasms of Hordeum vulgare ssp. spontaneum and H. vulgare ssp. vulgare, as well as from their paternal varieties. A bioinformatic approach for analysis of NGS data obtained on an organellar DNA mix has been developed and verified. A comparative study of Hordeum organelle genomes’ variability and disposition of polymorphic loci was conducted. Eight types of chloroplast DNA and 5 types of mitochondrial DNA were distinguished for the barley sample set examined. These results were compared with the previous data of a restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) study of organelle DNAs for the same material. Formerly established data about a field evaluation of alloplasmic barley lines were revised in the light of information about organelle genomes gained after NGS. Totally 17 polymorphic loci were found at exons of chloroplast genomes. Seven of the SNPs were located in the genes of the Ndh complex. The nonsynonymous changes of nucleotides were detected in the matK, rpoC1, ndhK, ndhG and infA genes. Some of the SNPs detected are very similar in codon position and in the type of amino acid substitution to the places where RNA editing can occur. Thus, these results outline new perspectives for the future study of nuclear-cytoplasmic interactions in alloplasmic lines.

Abstract
The commercial production of high quality natural rubber (NR) solely depends on Hevea brasiliensis Muell. Arg, (Para rubber tree) and accounts for >98% of total production worldwide. NR with its unique properties is an essential commodity for the automobile industry and its synthetic counterparts are in no way substitute to it. The rubber tree genome is very complex and plays an important role in delivering the unique properties of Hevea. But a lack of knowledge on the molecular mechanisms of rubber biosynthesis, disease resistance, etc., in elite clones of rubber still persists. Marker-assisted selection and transgenic techniques were proved to be advantageous in improving the breeding efficiency for latex yield, disease resistance, etc. The suppression subtractive hybridization (SSH), in the form of subtracted cDNA libraries and microarrays, can assist in searching the functions of expressed genes (candidate gene approach). Expressed sequence tags (ESTs) related to various metabolic aspects are well utilized to create EST banks that broadly represent the genes expressed in one tissue, such as latex cells, that assists in the study of gene function and regulation. Transcriptome analysis and gene mapping have been accomplished in Hevea at various stages. However, a selection criterion to delineate high yielding genotypes at the juvenile stage has not been accomplished so far. This is the main pit fall for rubber breeding apart from stock-scion interactions leading to yield differences among a clonally multiplied population. At least four draft genome sequences have been published on Hevea rubber, and all give different genome size and contig lengths-a comprehensive and acceptable genomic map remains unfulfilled. The progress made in molecular markers, latex biosynthesis genes, transcriptome analysis, chloroplast and mitochondrial DNA diversity, paternity identification through Breeding without Breeding (BwB), stimulated latex production and its molecular intricacies, molecular biology of tapping panel dryness, genomics for changed climates and genome mapping are discussed in this review. These information can be utilized to improvise the molecular breeding programs of Hevea in future.

Abstract
The origin and domestication of cultivated barley have long been under debate. A population-based resequencing and phylogenetic analysis of the single copy of RPB2 gene was used to address barley domestication, to explore genetic differentiation of barley populations on the worldwide scale, and to understand gene-pool exchanges during the spread and subsequent development of barley cultivation. Our results revealed significant genetic differentiation among three geographically distinct wild barley populations. Differences in haplotype composition among populations from different geographical regions revealed that modern cultivated barley originated from two major wild barley populations: one from the Near East Fertile Crescent and the other from the Tibetan Plateau, supporting polyphyletic origin of cultivated barley. The results of haplotype frequencies supported multiple domestications coupled with widespread introgression events that generated genetic admixture between divergent barley gene pools. Our results not only provide important insight into the domestication and evolution of cultivated barley, but also enhance our understanding of introgression and distinct selection pressures in different environments on shaping the genetic diversity of worldwide barley populations, thus further facilitating the effective use of the wild barley germplasm.

Abstract
PREMISE OF THE STUDY We developed a bioinformatic strategy to recover and assemble a chloroplast genome using data derived from low-coverage 454 GS FLX/Roche whole-genome sequencing. METHODS A comparative genomics approach was applied to obtain the complete chloroplast genome from a weedy biotype of rice from Uruguay. We also applied appropriate filters to discriminate reads representing novel DNA transfer events between the chloroplast and nuclear genomes. RESULTS From a set of 295,159 reads (96 Mb data), we assembled the chloroplast genome into two contigs. This weedy rice was classified based on 23 polymorphic regions identified by comparison with reference chloroplast genomes. We detected recent and past events of genetic material transfer between the chloroplast and nuclear genomes and estimated their occurrence frequency. DISCUSSION We obtained a high-quality complete chloroplast genome sequence from low-coverage sequencing data. Intergenome DNA transfer appears to be more frequent than previously thought.

Abstract
Hordeum, distributed worldwide in temperate zones, is the second largest genus in the tribe Triticeae and includes diploid, tetraploid, and hexaploid species. We determined, by DAPI staining and flow cytometry, the nuclear DNA content for 35 accessions of the genus Hordeum, from a total of 19 species, including specimens of 2 cultivars and 2 landraces of Hordeum vulgare ssp. vulgare as well as samples of 12 Hordeum vulgare ssp. spontaneum populations. Genome sizes ranged from 5.69 to 9.41 pg for the G1 nuclei of the diploids, and from 13.13 to 18.36 pg for those of the tetraploids. This constitutes a 1.7-fold variation for the diploids, contrasting with a 4% variation previously reported. For H. vulgare ssp. vulgare (barley), the accessions examined differed by 18%. These variations in genome size cannot be correlated with meiotic pairing groups (I, H, X, Y) or with proposed phylogenetic relationships within the genus. Genome size variation between barley accessions cannot be related to status as cultivated or wild, or to climatic or geological gradients. We suggest these data may indicate rapid but sporadic changes in genome size within the genus. Key words : barley, Hordeum, Triticeae, genome size, flow cytometry.

Abstract
Rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis) is an economical plant and widely grown for natural rubber production. However, genomic research of rubber tree has lagged behind other species in the Euphorbiaceae family. We report the complete chloroplast genome sequence of rubber tree as being 161,191 bp in length including a pair of inverted repeats of 26,810 bp separated by a small single copy region of 18,362 bp and a large single copy region of 89,209 bp. The chloroplast genome contains 112 unique genes, 16 of which are duplicated in the inverted repeat. Of the 112 unique genes, 78 are predicted protein-coding genes, 4 are ribosomal RNA genes and 30 are tRNA genes. Relative to other plant chloroplast genomes, we observed a unique rearrangement in the rubber tree chloroplast genome: a 30-kb inversion between the trnE(UUC)-trnS(GCU) and the trnT(GGU)-trnR(UCU). A comparison between the rubber tree chloroplast genes and cDNA sequences revealed 51 RNA editing sites in which most (48 sites) were located in 26 protein coding genes and the other 3 sites were in introns. Phylogenetic analysis based on chloroplast genes demonstrated a close relationship between Hevea and Manihot in Euphorbiaceae and provided a strong support for a monophyletic group of the eurosid I.

Abstract
We present a study of fine-scale spatial genetic structure (SGS) and assess the impact of seed and pollen dispersal on the pattern of genetic diversity in the predominantly selfing Hordeum spontaneum. The study included (1) direct measurement of dispersal in a controlled environment, and (2) analyses of SGS and estimation of the ratio of pollen to seed flow in three natural populations sampled in linear transects at fixed increasing inter-plant distances. Analysis of SGS with 10 nuclear SSRs showed in all three populations a significant autocorrelation for the distance classes of 1 or 2 m and a negative linear relationship between kinship coefficients, calculated for pairs of individuals, and logarithm of geographical distance between members of the pairs. Major seed dispersal (95%) was found to be within 1.2 m from the mother plant. Pollen flow, estimated from the comparison of nuclear and chloroplast variation, was spatially limited as much as was seed dispersal, and tended to be overestimated when measured at spatial scales exceeding that of SGS. We conclude that combined effects of selfing, occasional outcrossing, localized seed dispersal and high plant density create an equilibrium between drift and gene flow in this species resulting in SGS at a very fine spatial scale.

Abstract
Organellar DNA sequences are widely used in evolutionary and population genetic studies, however, the conservative nature of chloroplast gene and genome evolution often limits phylogenetic resolution and statistical power. To gain maximal access to the historical record contained within chloroplast genomes, we have adapted multiplex sequencing-by-synthesis (MSBS) to simultaneously sequence multiple genomes using the Illumina Genome Analyzer. We PCR-amplified approximately 120 kb plastomes from eight species (seven Pinus, one Picea) in 35 reactions. Pooled products were ligated to modified adapters that included 3 bp indexing tags and samples were multiplexed at four genomes per lane. Tagged microreads were assembled by de novo and reference-guided assembly methods, using previously published Pinus plastomes as surrogate references. Assemblies for these eight genomes are estimated at 88-94% complete, with an average sequence depth of 55x to 186x. Mononucleotide repeats interrupt contig assembly with increasing repeat length, and we estimate that the limit for their assembly is 16 bp. Comparisons to 37 kb of Sanger sequence show a validated error rate of 0.056%, and conspicuous errors are evident from the assembly process. This efficient sequencing approach yields high-quality draft genomes and should have immediate applicability to genomes with comparable complexity.

Abstract
Pre-Columbian farmers cultivated several species of agave in central Arizona from ca. A.D. 600-1350. Because of the longevity and primarily asexual reproduction of these species, relict agave clones remain in the landscape and provide insights into pre-Columbian agricultural practices. We analyzed variation in allozyme allele frequencies to infer genetic effects of prehistoric cultivation on Agave murpheyi and A. delamateri, specifically to estimate genetic diversity and structure, to determine whether cultivated populations descended from a single clone, and to examine regional-scale genetic variation. Agave murpheyi maintained more genetic diversity at the species and population levels than A. delamateri, and A. murpheyi populations typically included more multilocus genotypes. Relict plants from prehistoric fields reflect a more complex history than descent from a single clone; A. murpheyi populations may have included more diversity initially because bulbils (produced routinely in A. murpheyi but not A. delamateri) and possibly seed would have facilitated transport of genetically diverse planting stock. Genetic variation in both cultigens was lower than in most contemporary commercial crops but similar to that observed in modern traditional agricultural systems.

According to a widely accepted theory on barley domestication, wild barley (Hordeum vulgare ssp. spontaneum) from the Fertile Crescent is the progenitor of all cultivated barley (H. vulgare ssp. vulgare). To determine whether barley has undergone one or more domestication events, barley accessions from three continents have been studied (a) using 38 nuclear SSR (nuSSRs) markers, (b) using five chloroplast SSR (cpSSR) markers yielding 5 polymorphic loci and (c) by detecting the differences in a 468 bp fragment from the non-coding region of chloroplast DNA. A clear separation was found between Eritrean/Ethiopian barley and barley from West Asia and North Africa (WANA) as well as from Europe. The data from chloroplast DNA clearly indicate that the wild barley (H. vulgare ssp. spontaneum) as it is found today in the "Fertile Crescent" might not be the progenitor of the barley cultivated in Eritrea (and Ethiopia). Consequently, an independent domestication might have taken place at the Horn of Africa.

Abstract
In order to examine how molecular polymorphism in barley landraces, sampled from five different ecogeographical regions of Syria and Jordan, is organised and partitioned, genetic variability at 21 nuclear and 10 chloroplast microsatellite loci were examined. Chloroplast polymorphism was detected, with most variation being ascribed to differences between the five regions (Fst 0.45) and to within sites within each region (Fst 0.44). Moreover, the distribution of chloroplast polymorphism is structured and not distributed randomly across the barley landraces sampled. From a total of 125 landrace accessions (five lines from each of five sites from each of five regions) genotyped with 21 SSRs a total of 244 alleles were detected, of which 38 were common to the five regions sampled. Most nuclear variation was detected within sites. Significant differentiation between sites (Fst 0.29) was detected with nuclear SSRs and this partially mirrored polymorphism in the chloroplast genome. Strong statistical associations/interaction was also detected between the chloroplast and nuclear SSRs, together with non-random association (linkage disequilibrium) of alleles at both linked and unlinked SSR loci. These results are discussed in the context of adaptation of landraces to the extreme environment, the concept of 'adapted gene complexes' and the exploitation of landraces in breeding programmes.

Abstract
About 12,000 years ago, humans began the transition from hunter-gathering to a sedentary, agriculture-based society. From its origins in the Near East, farming expanded throughout Europe, Asia and Africa, together with various domesticated plants and animals. Where, how and why agriculture originated is still debated. But newer findings, on the basis of genome-wide measures of genetic similarity, have traced the origins of some domesticated cereals to wild populations of naturally occurring grasses that persist in the Near East. A better understanding of the genetic differences between wild grasses and domesticated crops adds important facets to the continuing debate on the origin of Western agriculture and the societies to which it gave rise.

Abstract
The Brevivalvula section of the grass polyploid complex Pennisetum shows various reproductive systems, apomixis being the most widespread. Haplotype variation of chloroplast DNA was studied in the six morphological taxa (species) of this section by using RFLP analysis in 54 plants corresponding to 14 elementary taxa, each characterized on the basis of morphology and ploidy level. Two additional species, Pennisetum glaucum and P. purpureum, which belong to another section of the same genus, were analysed for comparison. In Brevivalvula, chloroplast DNA size was estimated to range between 130 and 133 kb. Thirteen of 15 distinct haplotypes identified in the study were specific to the Brevivalvula section. They were unequally distributed among the morphotypes, the ploidy levels and sampling sites. Within the Brevivalvula section, plants of P. setosum, which are perennial and reproduce vegetatively or by agamospermy, possessed a single specific haplotype. This species differed clearly from the five other morphological species, which are known to be annual, to show either sexual or agamospermic reproduction and which shared most of the 12 other haplotypes observed in the section, suggesting the occurrence of multiple hybridization events between the taxa. Chloroplast DNA variation was highly geographically structured, suggesting low seed dispersal between sites, whereas the substantial haplotype diversity observed in the sites may indicate that agamic reproduction is responsible for the maintenance of distinct genetically isolated clones. Haplotype classification using Wagner's parsimony suggested the occurrence of bidirectional gene flow between the diploids and the polyploids, as reported already in other related apomictic complexes.

Abstract
In this study we report the development of primers to amplify polymorphic chloroplast simple sequence repeats in the genus Hordeum, which includes cultivated barley (H. vulgare ssp. vulgare) and its wild progenitor H. vulgare ssp. spontaneum. Polymorphic products were amplified in a wide range of Hordeum spp. and intraspecific variation was detected in both cultivated and wild barley. A decrease in cytoplasmic diversity was observed between sspp. spontaneum and vulgare as well as between ssp. vulgare landraces and cultivars, which is characteristic of domestication processes in many corp species. We also observed possible evidence for reticulate evolution of H. brachyantherum polyploids, with apparent multiple cytoplasmic introgressions during successive polyploidization events.

Abstract
The origin and spread of agriculture have been central questions in archaeology for the last 75 years and are increasingly being addressed by a multidisciplinary approach involving biologists, ecologists, geographers and anthropologists as well as archaeologists. Molecular genetics has the potential to make an important contribution, especially by enabling the number of times that a crop or animal was domesticated to be determined. Molecular genetics can also assign approximate dates to domestication events, identify the wild progenitor of a domesticate, and provide new forms of evidence relevant to agricultural spread. With wheat, molecular genetical studies of modern plants have suggested that einkorn was domesticated just once but that emmer might have been domesticated more than once. Ancient DNA studies of animal remains have benefited from progress made with equivalent analyses of human bones, and with plant material there have been clear demonstrations of DNA preservation in desiccated seeds. Charred remains have also been shown to contain ancient DNA but this finding is unexpected in view of the high temperatures to which these seeds have supposedly been exposed. Ancient DNA studies of wheat remains have been used in taxonomic identification and in assessment of the possible bread–making quality of the wheat grown at an Early Bronze Age site in Greece.

Abstract
The background selection hypothesis predicts a reduction in nucleotide site diversity and an excess of rare variants, owing to linkage associations with deleterious alleles. This effect is expected to be amplified in species that are predominantly self-fertilizing. To examine the predictions of the background selection hypothesis in self-fertilizing species, we sequenced 1,362 bp of adh1, a gene for alcohol dehydrogenase (Adh; alcohol:NAD+ oxidoreductase, EC 1.1.1.1), in a sample of 45 accessions of wild barley, Hordeum vulgare ssp. spontaneum, drawn from throughout the species range. The region sequenced included 786 bp of exon sequence (part of exon 4, all of exons 5-9, and part of exon 10) and 576 bp of intron sequence (all of introns 4-9). There were 19 sites polymorphic for nucleotide substitutions, 8 in introns, and 11 in exons. Of the 11 nucleotide substitutions in codons, 4 were synonymous and 7 were nonsynonymous, occurring uniquely in the sample. There was no evidence of recombination in the region studied, and the estimated effective population size (Ne) based on synonymous sites was approximately 1.8-4.2 x 10(5). Several tests reveal that the pattern of nonsynonymous substitutions departs significantly from neutral expectations. However, the data do not appear to be consistent with recovery from a population bottleneck, recent population expansion, selective sweep, or strong positive selection. Though several features of the data are consistent with background selection, the distributions of polymorphic synonymous and intron sites are not perturbed toward a significant excess of rare alleles as would be predicted by background selection.

Abstract
Hierarchical sampling from populations, incipient and recognized varieties within Phacelia dubia and P. maculata has revealed high levels of intraspecific polymorphism in chloroplast DNA. Much of the variation is partitioned between populations as evidenced by population-specific variants at fixation in all three populations of P. dubia var. interior and in both populations of P. maculata. Nine of 16 populations were polymorphic for cpDNA haplotypes. A total of 16 haplotypes was found in a sample of 106 individuals; the most common occurred in eight of the 16 populations and in 31 per cent of the individuals in the entire sample. A phylogenetic analysis revealed four basic plastome types. The two major groups of plastomes were separated by four independent base-pair mutations which suggests an ancient split in the evolution of plastid genomes. Representatives from each major plastome division were found in each of five populations spanning two allopatric varieties of P. dubia. The geographical distribution of haplotypes and lack of evidence for recent admixture argue against migration as a source of the polymorphism. It is more likely that the current taxonomic varieties are descendants of a polymorphic common ancestor.

Abstract
This study was undertaken to assess the relative level of molecular diversity between cultivated barley, Hordeum vulgare ssp. vulgare (HV), and one of its wild relatives, H. vulgare ssp. spontaneum (HS), and to identify possible restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) patterns that may provide information concerning the phylogenetic relationship between these two barley groups. A total of 363 barley accessions were assayed, including 95 entries of HV collected from 36 major barley growing countries of the world and 268 entries of HS from 25 natural populations in Israel and Iran. The 26 RFLP marker loci used in the survey represent single-copy, low-copy, and repetitive DNA sequences and mark all of the chromosome arms. A randomization test, on the basis of equal sample sizes, showed that HS is more polymorphic than HV, as evaluated by the number of alleles and diversity indices. The analysis also indicated extensive RFLP differentiation between these two barley groups; highly significant differences of allele frequencies were detected at the majority of the loci. The HV sample can be subdivided according to winter or spring growth habits, and two- or six-rowed spikes. Analysis of genetic polymorphisms in these subgroups showed that levels of diversity were about equal in spring and winter groups and also in the groups with two- and six-rowed spikes. However, significant differences of allelic frequencies were detected between subgroups of the two divisions.Key words: Hordeum vulgare, genetic diversity, germplasm.

Abstract
This study was undertaken to assess the extent of genetic variation in barley simple sequence repeats (SSRs) and to study the evolutionary dynamics of SSR alleles. SSR polymorphisms were resolved by the polymerase chain reaction with four pairs of primers. In total, 71 variants were observed in a sample of 207 accessions of wild and cultivated barley. Analyses of wheat-barley addition lines and barley doubled haploids identified these variants (alleles) with four loci, each located on a different chromosome. The numbers of alleles detected at a locus corresponded to the number of nucleotide repeats in the microsatellite sequences. The numbers of alleles at two loci were 28 and 37; to our knowledge these are the largest numbers of alleles for single Mendelian loci reported in plants. Three alleles were resolved by each of the other two loci. Allelic diversity was greater in wild than in cultivated barley and surveys of two generations (F8 and F53) of Composite Cross II, an experimental population of cultivated barley, showed that few of the alleles present in the 28 parents survived into generation F53, whereas some infrequent alleles reached high frequencies. Such changes in frequency indicate that the chromosomal segments marked by the SSR alleles are under the influence of natural selection. The SSR variants allow specific DNA sequences to be followed through generations. Thus, the great resolving power of SSR assays may provide clues regarding the precise targets of natural and man-directed selection.

Abstract
A restriction-site analysis of chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) variation in Lens was conducted to: (1) assess the levels of variation in Lens culinaris ssp. culinaris (the domesticated lentil), (2) identify the wild progenitor of the domesticated lentil, and (3) construct a cpDNA phylogeny of the genus. We analyzed 399 restriction sites in 114 cultivated accessions and 11 wild accessions. All but three accessions of the cultivar had identical cpDNAs. Two accessions exhibited a single shared restriction-site loss, and a small insertion was observed in the cpDNA of a third accession. We detected 19 restriction-site mutations and two length mutations among accessions of the wild taxa. Three of the four accessions of L. culinaris ssp. orientalis were identical to the cultivars at every restriction site, clearly identifying ssp. orientalis as the progenitor of the cultivated lentil. Because of its limited cpDNA diversity, we conclude that either the cultivated lentil has passed through a genetic bottleneck during domestication and lost most of its cytoplasmic variability or else was domesticated from an ancestor that was naturally depauperate in cpDNA restriction-site variation. However, because we had access to only a small number of populations of the wild taxa, the levels of variation present in ssp. orientalis can only be estimated, and the extent of such a domestication bottleneck, if applicable, cannot be evaluated. The cpDNA-based phylogeny portrays Lens as quite distinct from its putative closest relative, Vicia montbretii. L. culinaris ssp. odemensis is the sister of L. nigricans; L. culinaris is therefore paraphyletic given the current taxonomic placement of ssp. odemensis. Lens nigricans ssp. nigricans is by far the most divergent taxon of the genus, exhibiting ten autapomorphic restriction-site mutations.

Abstract
The amount, distribution and mutational nature of chloroplast DNA polymorphisms were studied via analysis of restriction fragment length polymorphisms in three closely related species of conifers, the California closed-cone pines-knobcone pine: Pinus attenuata Lemm.; bishop pine: Pinus muricata D. Don; and Monterey pine: Pinus radiata D. Don. Genomic DNA from 384 trees representing 19 populations were digested with 9-20 restriction enzymes and probed with cloned cpDNA fragments from Douglas-fir [Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco] that comprise 82% chloroplast genome. Up to 313 restriction sites were surveyed, and 25 of these were observed to be polymorphic among or within species. Differences among species accounted for the majority of genetic (haplotypic) diversity observed [Gst = 84(+/- 13)%]; nucleotide diversity among species was estimated to be 0.3(+/- 0.1)%. Knobcone pine and Monterey pine displayed almost no genetic variation within or among populations. Bishop pine also showed little variability within populations, but did display strong population differences [Gst = 87(+/- 8)%] that were a result of three distinct geographic groups. Mean nucleotide diversity within populations was 0.003(+/- 0.002)%; intrapopulation polymorphisms were found in only five populations. This pattern of genetic variation contrasts strongly with findings from study of nuclear genes (allozymes) in the group, where most genetic diversity resides within populations rather than among populations or species. Regions of the genome subject to frequent length mutations were identified; estimates of subdivision based on length variant frequencies in one region differed strikingly from those based on site mutations or allozymes. Two trees were identified with a major chloroplast DNA inversion that closely resembled one documented between Pinus and Pseudotsuga.

Abstract
DNA restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) and isozyme variation were surveyed in 268 accessions of a wild barley (Hordeum vulgare ssp. spontaneum) sampled from diverse ecogeographical areas in Israel and Iran. A total of 24 markers was used: 7 well characterized isozyme loci and 15 DNA probes which detected 17 putative loci and included three classes of DNA sequences (single copy, low copy and repetitive) representing all 7 barley chromosomes. Survey results indicated that both RFLPs and isozymes are highly polymorphic both within and among populations of this wild barley. The number of alleles per locus and average level of diversity do not differ between isozymes and RFLPs. However, the relative amounts of within vs. between population components vary greatly between these two sets of molecular markers. Isozymes demonstrated a larger amount of within population diversity, whereas RFLPs resolved a higher proportion of between population differentiation. Furthermore, RFLPs detected more heterozygosity than did isozymes. Both classes of markers resolved large numbers of multilocus combinations, the majority of which were represented by only one individual in the total sample. Up to 30% of the loci differ among individuals within populations, and about 50% of the loci differ among plants in different populations. While many important aspects of population diversity as determined by RFLPs are significantly correlated with those of isozymes, such correlation values are generally low, indicating that only a small proportion of the genetic variation detected by one class of markers can be predicted by the other.

Abstract
Previous examination of intraspecific mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) diversity in common bean, Phaseolus vulgaris, showed that five restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) distinguish the mitochondrial genomes of the two major gene pools of cultivated beans, the Mesoamerican and the Andean. In the study presented here, mtDNA was used to compare the amount of diversity in cultivated beans to that in collections of wild beans to gain an understanding of how and when the mitochondrial genomes of the gene pools became distinct. The mtDNA of six wild bean accessions from Central and South America were digested with nine restriction endonucleases and analyzed by Southern hybridization. A total of twenty RFLPs were detected demonstrating a significantly higher amount of mtDNA variability in wild beans than in cultivated ones. All of the wild beans had the same mtDNA pattern for four out of the five inter-gene pool RFLPs, indicating that the polymorphism arose soon after domestication: two in the gene pool of the cultivated Mesoamerican beans and two in the gene pool of the cultivated Andean beans. The fifth RFLP must have occurred before domestication since the locus was also polymorphic in the wild beans. Wild beans from the south Andes were distinct and less variable than wild accessions of the north Andes and Mesoamerica. The distribution of mtDNA RFLPs among the wild beans supports the concept of two distinct domestication events for P. vulgaris.

Abstract
The potential of variation in repeated nucleotide sequences as a tool for phylogenetic studies was examined by investigating the phylogeny of 13 diploid species of the genus Triticum L. sensu Bowden. Low intraspecific variation in repeated nucleotide sequence families in Triticum indicated that restriction fragment profiles of repeated nucleotide sequences in Southern blots are reliable and uniform characteristics of each species. Cloned repeated nucleotide sequences were hybridized with Southern blots of DNAs of the Triticum species and the outgroup, Lophopyrum elongatum (Host) Á. Löve. The presence or absence of bands in the Southern blot autoradiograms was considered to be a character for phylogenetic analysis. A most parsimonious tree was resolved with the PAUP version 3.0L computer package. The tree was consistent with cytotaxonomic and evolutionary data available on the species.

Abstract
Associations among alleles at nine nuclear loci and three chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) genotypes were assessed in a sample of 247 accessions of the wild barley, Hordeum vulgare ssp. spontaneum. Alleles at two of the nine nuclear loci are marked by length variations in the intergenic spacer region of ribosomal DNA (rDNA), and those of the other seven loci are well characterized allozymes. The three chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) genotypes are marked by restriction fragment length polymorphisms resulting from three polymorphic restriction sites detected by Southern blot hybridization. The analyses were performed by dividing the nine nuclear loci into a series of two-locus subsets and constructing log-linear models to characterize associations between the subsets of two nuclear loci and the cpDNA genotypes. Statistically significant associations were detected between six of the nine nuclear loci and the cpDNA genotypes, either individually as pairwise correlations, or through interaction with another nuclear locus to form three-variate complexes. Although the sample size of the present study was inadequate for statistical evaluation of higher order interactions, the results suggest the existence of interactions in which more than two nuclear loci are involved in associations with cpDNA genotypes. The observed cytonuclear associations appear to result from interplay among a number of evolutionary forces including a mating system of predominant selfing, differentiation among gene pools of local populations, and adaptation of barley genotypes to specific environmental conditions.

Abstract
The extent and type of chloroplast DNA restriction fragment length polymorphism was determined among individual tree samples of coast redwood, Douglas fir, incense-cedar, and loblolly pine. A total of 107 trees was surveyed for three restriction enzymes (BamHI, EcoRI, HindIII) and six chloroplast DNA probes from petunia (P3, P4, P6, P8, P10, S8). The probes comprise 64% of the petunia chloroplast genome. Polymorphisms were detected in all species but loblolly pine. Coast redwood and incense-cedar had a small number of rare variants, whereas Douglas fir had one highly polymorphic region of insertions/deletions in sequences revealed by the P6 probe from petunia. The mutation hotspot is currently being studied by DNA sequence analysis.

Abstract
DNA from 267 accessions of wild barley from ecologically diverse habitats in Israel and Iran and from 92 accessions of cultivated barley from throughout the world were assayed for the 20 ribosomal DNA (rDNA) spacer-length variants that have been identified in the barley species. These 20 spacer-length variants, which are detectable by Southern blot hybridization, serve as markers of rDNA alleles of two Mendelian loci, Rrn1 and Rrn2. All of the populations of wild barley studied were polymorphic for both loci. In wild barley allele 112 (Rrn1) and allele 107 (Rrn2) behaved as widely adapted wild-type alleles; in our sample of cultivated barley allele 112 also behaved as a wild-type allele but allele 104 was somewhat more frequent than allele 107 in Rrn2. A few other alleles were locally frequent in wild barley. However, most of the 20 alleles were infrequent or rare and such alleles were often associated as "hitchhikers" with one of the wild-type alleles in compound two-component alleles. Allelic and genotypic frequencies differed widely in different habitats in correlation with eight of nine factors of the physical environment. Discrete log-linear multivariate analyses revealed statistically significant associations among alleles of Rrn1 and Rrn2. It was concluded that natural selection acting differentially on various rDNA alleles plays a major role in the development and maintenance of observed patterns of molecular and genetic organization of rDNA variability.

Abstract
Twenty alleles, 12 at Mendelian locus Rrn1 and 8 at locus Rrn2, control rRNA genes [ribosomal DNA (rDNA)] variability in barley. These alleles differ strikingly in their effects on adaptedness. In the present study, we determined variation in the copy number of 101 accessions of wild barley plants from 10 ecologically diverse sites in Israel and examined relationships between rDNA copy number and adaptedness. The average multiplicity of rDNA per haploid genome was 1881 copies and the average numbers of copies for Rrn1 and Rrn2 were 962 and 917, respectively. The total number of copies as well as the number of copies for Rrn1 and Rrn2 varied widely from plant to plant within sites and also from site to site. The predominant allele of Rrn2 had somewhat more copies on the average than the other alleles of this locus but differences between the predominant allele and other alleles of Rrn1 were not statistically significant. Overall, the results indicated that differing amounts of rDNA resulting from variations in copy number and/or number of subrepeats in the intergenic spacer region were not closely associated with adaptedness. This suggests that the high adaptedness of a few specific alleles results in large part from adaptatively favorable nucleotide sequences in the transcription units and/or the intergenic spacer regions of the favored alleles--i.e., that adaptedness in barley depends on the quality more than on the quantity of rDNA present.
