Abstract

Cytogenetic analysis of five Solanum lycopersicoides monosomic alien addition lines of tomato was carried out. Meiotic analysis showed that additional chromosomes caused serious abnormalities. It was demonstrated that different chromosomes of S. lycopersicoides had different effects on chromosome pairing. For instance, associations formed between chromosomes II and IV of S. lycopersicoides and chromosomes of cultured tomato were trivalents, while chromosome XI in all cells was present as a univalent. Pachytene analysis showed that chromosomes of homeologous group II paired at their long arms, and their nucleolus organizer regions were of different sizes. The use of molecular markers provided accelerated identification of the introgression of S. lycopersicoides genetic material.
