    Notes: Summary Meiosis and fertility of interspecific hybrids obtained from reciprocal crosses between Phaseolus vulgaris and P. acutifolius were examined. Bivalents as well as univalents were found at Metaphase I. The majority of the microsporocytes had four or more univalents and the average was 6.3 univalents per cell. The average number of lagging chromosomes at Anaphase I was 2.3 per cell and the most frequent chromosome distribution at late Anaphase I was 10–12. The lower than expected number of lagging chromosomes as compared with the number of univalents at Metaphase I suggests the possible occurrence of precocious separation of bivalents. The male fertility as measured by pollen stainability was 17%, however, the frequency of pollen germination in selfing was 3.5%. Upon selfing of the interspecific hybrids, no dividing embryos were found even though 7 and 26% of the ovules were fertilized at 12 hours and four days after pollination. In backcrosses to P. vulgaris (male), 6 and 20% of the ovules were fertilized and 0 and 4% of the ovules contained dividing embryos at the same sampling times. When P. acutifolius was the male parent, respective values were 8 and 31% for fertilization and 0 and 13% for ovules with dividing embryos. The frequencies of backcross embryos recovered at 14–26 days were in agreement with the frequencies of dividing embryos at four days. The ability to obtain backcross plantlets demonstrates the feasibility to further utilize interspecific hybrids for the improvement of P. vulgaris

    Notes: Summary Intercrossing and irradiation were successfully used in pearl millet (Pennisetum typhoides) to develop multiple interchanges involving up to the total complement of all the chromosomes in one complex. In interchange heterozygotes showing ⊙ 12 + 1 II and ⊙ 14, 90.9 and 87.8 per cent of the cells, respectively, had chromosome configurations other than that of 12 and 14 chromosomes. In general, the frequency of such cells resulting from breakdown of the expected complex configuration increased with the increase in the number of translocated chromosomes in the complex. The higher the number of chromosomes involved in the interchange ring, the higher were the pollen and ovule sterility. The results indicated that meiotic instability, deficiency-duplication gametes, and unequal distribution of chromosomes account for increased sterility of multiple interchange heterozygotes. Even though interchanges in pearl millet predominantly show the alternate type of segregation, sterility seems to be the major barrier for the exploitation of the multiple interchange method for gamete selection and the establishment of homozygous lines in this plant species.

    Notes: Summary Catenaria allomycis Couch (Blastocladiales) is an endobiotic fungal parasite primarily of species of the genusAllomyces. The life cycle ofC. allomycis contains both sexual and asexual phases. Synaptonemal complexes have been found in young developing resistant sporangia (RS) suggesting that meiosis occurs within the thick walled RS prior to syngamy. Ultrastructural evidence suggests that meiosis proceeds through pachytene in the developing RS and is arrested in diplotene of prophase I until the sporangia are induced to germinate at which time the meiotic process is completed. Quantitative nuclear counts in developing RS support the ultrastructural observations. Meiotic nuclei are characterized by polar fenestrae in the nuclear envelope and intranuclear plaque-like microtubule organizing centers (MTOC).

    Notes: Summary A thoroughly documented account of the ultrastructure of the meiotic spindle pole body (SPB) cycle in a rust (Basidiomycota, Uredinales) is presented for the first time. The three-dimensional structure of the SPB and spindle during meiosis in the hollyhock rust fungusPuccinia malvacearum is analyzed from serial sections of preselected stages. This paper covers prophase I to prometaphase I. At late prophase I, the nucleolus disperses and does not reappear until the end of meiosis. The SPB at late prophase I consists of two, 4-layered discs, 0.8–1.0 μm in diameter, connected by a middle piece (MP). The SPB is associated with a differentiated region of the nuclear envelope and nucleoplasm. At late diplotene to diakinesis, each disc generates a half spindle as it inserts into an otherwise intact nuclear envelope. The MP connecting the interdigitating half spindles elongates and eventually splits transversely during subsequent spindle elongation. Each half MP, which is attached to a SPB disc, becomes inserted in a sheath-like extension of the nuclear envelope. The intranuclear late prometaphase I spindle always becomes oriented perpendicularly to the longitudinal axis and sagittal plane of the metabasidium. There are 200–290 spindle microtubules (MTs) at each SPB at late prometaphase. The nonkinetochore MTs form a coherent central spindle around which the kinetochore MTs and bivalents are spread. A metaphase plate is absent. The results are compared with SPB behavior and spindle structure in early meiosis of other basidiomycetes and ascomycetes.

    Notes: Summary The three-dimensional structure of the spindle pole body (SPB) and meiotic spindle during early metaphase I through telophase I inPuccinia malvacearum is analyzed ultrastructurally from serial sections. During early metaphase I the spindle rotates from the perpendicular to a position oblique to the longitudinal axis and parallel to the sagittal plane of the cell. Tubular cisternae are present within the spindle at this stage. The half middle piece (MP) subtends a collateral disc (co-disc) which is inserted eccentrically within each SPB. The SPB, co-disc and half MP at opposite poles are in mirror image. During the transition from early metaphase I to full metaphase I, the spindle orients parallel to the lateral wall of the promycelium and the half MPs are lost. The co-discs partially detach from each discoid SPB and maintain this relation until the end of interphase I. Co-discs become further differentiated as they attach to the subtending sheath-like extension of the nuclear envelope previously occupied by the half MPs. Microvesicles within the nucleoplasm are specific to mid metaphase I. A metaphase plate is absent. The 14 bivalents, which are directly connected to each polar SPB by 2 to 3 kinetochore MTs, are spread over nearly the entire length of the central spindle. The first anaphasic movement involves asynchronous shortening of the kinetochore MTs while the second consists of extensive pole-to-pole elongation. Astral MTs first appear at early metaphase I and become most numerous at anaphase I. An intact nuclear envelope constricts against the central spindle at either end of the interzonal region. Concurrently, centripetal growth of the nuclear envelope under each SPB results in their gradual externalization by the end of telophase I. The sibling nuclei are cut off by constriction of the nuclear envelope at either end of the interzonal region. These meiotic stages inP. malvacearum are compared with those in other basidiomycetes and ascomycetes.

    Notes: Summary Changes in the spindle pole body (SPB) and meiotic nuclei from interphase I through interphase II in the hollyhock rustPuccinia malvacearum are analyzed ultrastructurally by three-dimensional reconstructions from serial sections. Interphase I nuclei undergo a coordinated migration and rotation during which the SPBs approach the convex face of the lateral promycelial wall. During the transition from interphase I to prometaphase II, the collateral disc (co-disc) apparently enlarges and fuses with the main disc of the SPB. The resulting single SPB nucleates two confluent half spindles and about 225 astral microtubules (MTs). Co-discs and middle pieces (MPs) are absent during division II. SPBs separate and form metaphase II intranuclear spindles oriented in a predictable manner. Tubular cisternae are present within the spindle at early metaphase II. The architecture of the spindle at division II is essentially identical to that reported for division I except that the spindle is about half as long. Anaphase-telophase II nuclear envelope constriction, separation of the sibling nuclei, and externalization of the SPBs is identical to that reported for division I. Genesis of the duplicated interphase II SPB apparently occurs rapidly and involves formation of the MP followed by the three-layered SPB discs. General aspects of the division II spindle are discussed. A model for the meiotic SPB cycle in a rust is presented and its phylogenetic and functional significance in relation to other basidiomycetes and ascomycetes is discussed.
