Abstract

The genus Elymus L. is a complicated aggregate of ecological and geographical races, species, subspecies, varieties, and hybrids. We suggest that comparative analysis of intragenomic polymorphism of internal transcribed spacers ITS1 and ITS2 of 35S rRNA genes in the supposed hybrids and their possible “parents” can be one of the approaches to verification of hybrid origin of the samples collected in nature to confirm or reject the hypotheses about their possible “parents.” Polymorphic sites (PS) in ITS of 23 Elymus species, as well as in two supposed interspecific Elymus hybrids and in a supposed intergeneric hybrid between Elymus × Hordeum determined as × Elyhordeum sp., were analyzed in the work. We collected all hybrids in the Altai. There were 2 and 5 PS in two samples of E. dahuricus and 1 and 4 PS in two studied samples of E. schrenkianus in the ITS1-5.8S rDNA-ITS2 region. From 0 to 4 (modes 0 and 3) PS were detected in 32 samples relating to 21 tetraploid Elymus species. More PS (14) were found in the × Elyhordeum sp. sample. A large number of single nucleotide substitutions were found in 5.8S rRNA in × Elyhordeum. It was shown that about half of them do not change the secondary structure of the 5.8S rRNA molecule, so these molecules probably retain the ability to work as a component of large subunit of a ribosome. On the other hand, the absence or weakening of 5.8S rDNA homogenization in × Elyhordeum indirectly suggests that a significant part of 5.8S rDNA is not transcribed. Paradoxically, ITS sequences of × Elyhordeum sp. are less polymorphic than 5.8S rDNA. There are no ITS sequences derived from Hordeum among × Elyhordeum ITS sequenced by Sanger method. No traces of the H subgenome and a subgenome originating from Agropyron (P-subgenome) are seen in the Alt 10–278 plant genome (a chimera, combining the morphological traits of Elymus, Elytrigia, and Agropyron). In this plant, as well as in the supposed intersectional hybrid Alt 11–60 distinguished by a mosaic of the traits typical for the E. caninus × E. mutabilis species, only 4 and 5 PS, respectively, are detected when sequencing by Sanger method. The comparison of ITS sequences of the supposed Elymus Alt 10–278 hybrid and its probable “parents” demonstrates that one of the species of the Elymus macrourus kinship circle, as well as the Elytrigia geniculata, could be one of its ancestors. The comparison of the ITS sequence of the supposed parental species with ITS of Alt 11–60 samples and five PS of the supposed Alt 11–60 hybrid does not contradict the hypothesis that this is an intersectional hybrid of the first generation that emerged with the involvement of E. caninus and E. mutabilis common in the Altai.
