    Notes: Abstract Silver-stained random amplified polymorphic DNA (ssRAPD) markers have been identified that are always jointly present or absent in the ssRAPD profiles of cranberry varieties. On the basis of segregation data and the ability to re-create these “associated ssRAPDs” through the intermixing of amplified DNA from individuals lacking them, five of the six pairs of associated ssRAPDs analyzed were shown to be consistent with heteroduplex molecules. Heteroduplexes are “hybrid”” double-stranded DNAs that are formed following the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification of two DNA segments that have a high degree of homology to one another, yet differ in their nucleotide sequences as a result of base pair deletions, additions, or substitutions. Three of the five putative heteroduplex systems identified are consistent with a one locus, two-allele heteroduplex model. The remaining two systems appeared to be multi-allelic, involving interactions among three and four alleles, respectively. RAPD heteroduplex formation has the potential to confound genetic relatedness and pedigree studies. Heterozygous individuals exhibit heteroduplex RAPDs not seen in either of the two homozygote classes. Genetic estimates under such a circumstance would “inflate” the differences between the heterozygote and the homozygote classes. Heteroduplex formation is also a mechanism for the presence of non-parental RAPDs in progeny of parents homozygous for alternate alleles. While this class of molecular markers can confound RAPD analyses, they also offer a source of co-dominant RAPD markers, which are of value in genetic relatedness estimates and as markers for studying breeding behavior.

    Notes: Abstract Electrofusion was used to obtain somatic hybrids between Solanum etuberosum (2n=2x=24) and two diploid potato lines. These hybridizations were conducted to determine if haploidxwild species hybrids are better fusion partners than conventional S. tuberosumGp. Tuberosum haploids. Restriction fragment length polymerase (RFLP) analyses of the putative somatic hybrids confirmed that each parental genome was present. The somatic hybrids between S. etuberosum and a haploid S. tuberosum clone, US-W730, were stunted and had curled, purple leaves. In contrast, somatic hybrids between S. etuberosum and a haploidxwild species hybrid (US-W 730 haploidx S. berthaultii), were vigorous and generally tuberized under field conditions. These hybrids were designated as E+BT somatic hybrids. Analyses of 23 E+BT somatic hybrids revealed a statistically significant bias towards the retention of S. etuberosum chloroplasts. Stylar incompatibilities were observed when the E+BT somatic hybrids were used as pollen donors in crosses with S. tuberosum cultivars. Reciprocal crosses did not show this incompatibility. The progeny were vigorous and had improved tuber traits when compared to the maternal E+BT parent. RFLP analyses of three sexual progeny lines confirmed the presence of all 12 S. etuberosum chromosomes. In two of these lines, RFLPs that marked each of the 24 chromosome arms of S. etuberosum were present. However, RFLP markers specific for regions on chromosomes 2, 7, and 11 were missing from the third clone. Because other markers for these chromosomes were present in the progeny line, these results indicated the likelihood of pairing and recombination between S. etuberosum and S. tuberosum chromosomes.
