Abstract:

Leptysma argentina is a highly polymorphic South-American grasshopper from the cytological point of view; all populations so far studied carry a polymorphic fusion between pairs 3 and 6. In heterozygotes, the trivalent 3-3/6-6 shows alternate orientation in 97.17% of the cells. Trivalent chiasma frequency is significantly lower than in the combined 3 and 6 bivalents of the standard homozygote; besides, there is a marked displacement of chiasmata to a distal position. In structural homozygotes the same effects, but not so marked, were observed. One individual was a double heterozygote for both the polymorphic centric fusion and a spontaneous one between pairs 5 and 7. The presence of a fragment, sometimes associated with the centromeric region of the nonfused 5 chromosome, was detected in more than 50% of the cells. The orientation of trivalent 5-5/7-7 in metaphase I was highly irregular (36% linear orientation). Neither frequency nor position of chiasmata were altered in trivalent 5-5/7-7 when compared with bivalents 5+7 of normal individuals. The results suggest that proximal and interstitial chiasma reduction observed in trivalent 3-3/6-6 of L. argentina is due to a later adaptation to the polymorphic condition or a fortuitous genetic condition present in the original mutant, rather than to a direct effect of the fusion itself on chiasma distribution. © 1987 Dr W.
