Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Dasypyrum villosum (2n = 2x = 14) harbours potentially beneficial genes for hexaploid and tetraploid wheat improvement. Highly diversified chromosome variation exists among and within accessions due to its open-pollination nature. The wheat-D. villosum T6VS·6AL translocation was widely used in breeding mainly because gene Pm21 in the 6VS segment conferred high and lasting powdery mildew resistance. However, the widespread use of this translocation may narrow the genetic base of wheat. A better solution is to utilize diversified D. villosum accessions as the genetic source for wheat breeding. Analysis of cytological and genetic polymorphisms among D. villosum accessions also provides genetic evolution information on the species. Using cytogenetic and molecular tools we analysed genetic polymorphisms among D. villosum accessions and developed consensus karyotypes to assist the introgression of beneficial genes from D. villosum into wheat. METHODS A multiplex probe of repeats for FISH, GISH and molecular markers were used to detect chromosome polymorphisms among D. villosum accessions. Polymorphic signal block types, chromosome heterogeneity and heterozygosity, and chromosome polymorphic information content were used in genetic diversity analysis. KEY RESULTS Consensus karyotypes of D. villosum were developed, and the homoeologous statuses of individual D. villosum chromosomes relative to wheat were determined. Tandem repeat probes of pSc119.2, (GAA)10 and the AFA family produced high-resolution signals and not only showed different signal patterns in D. villosum chromosomes but also revealed the varied distribution of tandem repeats among chromosomes and accessions. A total of 106 polymorphic chromosomes were identified from 13 D. villosum accessions and high levels of chromosomal heterozygosity and heterogeneity were observed. A subset of 56 polymorphic chromosomes was transferred into durum wheat through wide crosses, and seven polymorphic chromosomes are described in two newly developed durum-D. villosum amphidiploids. CONCLUSIONS Consensus karyotypes of D. villosum and oligonucleotide FISH facilitated identification of polymorphic signal blocks and a high level of chromosomal heterozygosity and heterogeneity among D. villosum accessions, seen in newly developed amphiploids. The abundant genetic diversity of D. villosum and range of alleles, exploitable through interploid crosses, backcrosses and recombination (chromosome engineering), allow introduction of biotic and abiotic stress resistances into wheat, translating into increasing yield, end-use quality and crop sustainability.

Abstract
Intermediate wheatgrass (Thinopyrum intermedium (Host) Barkworth & D.R. Dewey), a segmental autoallohexaploid (2n = 6x = 42), is not only an important forage crop but also a valuable gene reservoir for wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) improvement. Throughout the scientific literature, there continues to be disagreement as to the origin of the different genomes in intermediate wheatgrass. Genotypic data obtained from newly developed EST-SSR primers derived from the putative progenitor diploid species Pseudoroegneria spicata (Pursh) Á. Löve (St genome), Thinopyrum bessarabicum (Savul. & Rayss) Á. Löve (J = Jb = Eb), and Thinopyrum elongatum (Host) D. Dewey (E = Je = Ee) indicate that the V genome of Dasypyrum (Coss. & Durieu) T. Durand is not one of the three genomes in intermediate wheatgrass. Based on all available information in the literature and findings in this study, the genomic designation of intermediate wheatgrass should be changed to JvsJrSt, where Jvs and Jr represent ancestral genomes of present-day Jb of Th. bessarabicum and Je of Th. elongatum, with Jvs being more ancient. Furthermore, the information suggests that the St genome in intermediate wheatgrass is most similar to the present-day St found in diploid species of Pseudoroegneria from Eurasia.

Abstract
The genus Dasypyrum contains two species: the annual and widespread D. villosum (2x = 2n = 14) and the perennial and generally rare D. breviaristatum (2x = 2n = 14 and 4x = 2n = 28). The origin of the latter and its genome constitution have been subject of several studies. There is agreement that the genome of the diploid D. villosum (VV) is different from the diploid cytotype of D. breviaristatum (VbVb), but there is no agreement of the constitution of the tetraploid cytotype, specifically whether is it an autotetraploid or an allotetraploid. This is a long-standing disagreement that this study aims to resolve using the 5S nrDNA as a genomic marker. Our studies suggest that the 4x D. breviaristatum is an allotetraploid (VVVbVb).

Abstract
As the most ancient member of the wheat gluten family, the γ-gliadin genes are suitable for phylogenetic analysis among wheat and related species. Species in the grass genus Dasypyrum have been widely used for wheat cross breeding. However, the genomic relationships among Dasypyrum species have been little studied. We isolated 22 novel γ-gliadin gene sequences, among which 10 are putatively functional. The open reading frame lengths of these sequences range from 642 to 933 bp, and these putative proteins consist of five domains. Phylogenetic analyses showed that all Dasypyrum γ-gliadin gene sequences clustered in a large group; D. villosum and tetraploid D. breviaristatum γ-gliadin gene sequences clustered in a subgroup, while diploid D. breviaristatum γ-gliadin gene sequences clustered at the edge of the subgroup. All of the Dasypyrum γ-gliadin gene sequences were absent in three major T cell-stimulatory epitopes binding to HLA-DQ2/8 in celiac disease patients. Based on the phylogenetic analyses, we suggest that D. villosum and tetraploid D. breviaristatum evolved in parallel from a diploid ancestor D. breviaristatum.

Abstract
Dasypyrum breviaristatum and nine related species in Triticeae were analyzed using the random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) technique, in order to understand the genetic relationship and to develop species specific markers. The genome relationship dendrogram shows that D. breviaristatum and D. villosum could not be grouped together, indicating that D. breviaristatum was unlikely to be directly derived from D. villosum, while D. breviaristatum was closest to Thinopyrum intermedium, which implied that they might have similar breeding behaviors when introducing their chromatins into wheat. A D. breviaristatum genome specific RAPD product of 1182bp, was cloned and designated as pDb12H. Sequence analysis revealed that pDb12H was strongly homologuos to a long terminal repeat (LTR) Sabrina retrotransposon newly reported in Hordeum. The pDb12H was converted into a PCR based marker, which allows effectively monitoring the D. breviaristatum chromatin introgression into wheat. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) suggested that pDb12H was specifically hybridized throughout all D. breviaristatum chromosomes arms except for the terminal and centromeric regions, which can be used to characterize wheat -D. breviaristatum chromosome translocation. The genomes repetitive element will also be useful to study gene interactions between the wheat and alien genomes after the polyploidization.

Abstract
A wheat-Dasypyrum breviaristatum partial amphiploid and its derivatives were analyzed by molecular cytological observation and tested for disease resistance in order to evaluate the potential use of the D. breviaristatum for wheat improvement. A fertility-improved partial amphiploid, TDH-2, was produced from the selfing population of Triticum aestivum cv. Chinese spring (CS)-D. breviaristatum amphiploid. Based on the results obtained from genomic in situ hybridization (GISH) and seed protein electrophoresis, we found the presence of fourteen D. breviaristatum chromosomes and the absence of D genome in TDH-2, indicating that the genomic composition of TDH-2 was AABBV(b)V(b). GISH analysis on BC(1)F(4) progenies of TDH-2xwheat demonstrated that alien D. breviaristatum chromosomes or segments were frequently transmitted. A survey of diseases resistance revealed that powdery mildew resistance from D. breviaristatum was totally expressed, however, the expression of stripe rust resistance from D. breviaristatum was dependent on the wheat background. The comparison of polymerase chain reaction (PCR), which was carried out using molecular marker SCAR(1400) linked to Pm21 D. villosum-derived powdery mildew resistance gene, suggested that D. breviaristatum possessed new resistance gene(s) different from that in D. villosum. The present study showed that the partial amphiploid TDH-2 and its derivatives could serve as novel sources for transfer of disease resistance genes to wheat.

Abstract
To elucidate the genome relationships in the genus Dasypyrum and the ancestry of tetraploid D. breviaristatum, two cytotypes of D. breviaristatum and D. villosum were reciprocally crossed with one another. Chromosome pairing at the first metaphase of meiosis and fertility were examined in the F1 hybrids and the parental plants. The mean pairing configuration and mean arm pairing frequency in D. villosum-D. breviaristatum (2x) hybrids were 11.12I + 1.44II per cell and 0.107, respectively, and they were almost completely sterile. In D. breviaristatum (4x)-D. breviaristatum (2x) hybrid, up to seven trivalents were formed, and the mean pairing configuration was 3.38I + 3.20II + 3.74III + 0.005IV per cell. The mean arm pairing frequency and relative affinity calculated in that F1 hybrid were 0.915 and 0.641, respectively. Seven bivalents and seven univalents were characteristically formed in D. villosum-D. breviaristatum (4x) hybrids. Based on the present results, we clearly concluded that the genome of diploid D. breviaristatum is distantly related to the genome V of D. villosum, and that these two species have different basic genomes. We, therefore, proposed the symbol Vb for the haploid genome of diploid cytotype of D. breviaristatum. Moreover, we concluded that tetraploid D. breviaristatum is an autotetraploid with doubled sets of the genomes homologous with that of diploid D. breviaristatum, and we proposed the genome constitution VbVb for the haploid genome set of tetraploid cytotype of D. breviaristatum. Furthermore, from the chromosome pairing in the F1 hybrids involving Moroccan and Greek accessions, it was suggested that complicated rearrangements of chromosome structure have occurred in tetraploid D. breviaristatum in its natural populations across the entire distribution area.
