- Abstract
Polyploidy and dysploidy have been reported as the main events in karyotype evolution of plants. In the genus Phaseolus L. (2n = 22), a small monophyletic group of three species, the Leptostachyus group, presents a dysploid karyotype with 2n = 20. It was shown in Phaseolus leptostachyus that the dysploidy was caused by a nested chromosome fusion (NCF) accompanied by several translocations, suggesting a high rate of karyotype evolution in the group. To verify if this karyotype restructuring was a single event or occurred progressively during the evolution of this group, we analysed P. macvaughii, sister to Phaseolus micranthus + P. leptostachyus. Twenty-four genomic clones of P. vulgaris previously mapped on P. leptostachyus, in addition to the 5S and 35S rDNA probes, were used for fluorescence in situ hybridization. Only a single rearrangement was common to the two species: the nested chromosome fusion (NCF) involving chromosomes 10 and 11. The translocation of chromosome 2 is not the same found in P. leptostachyus, and pericentric inversions in chromosomed 3 and 4 were exclusive of P. macvaughii. The other rearrangements observed in P. leptostachyus were not shared with this species, suggesting that they occurred after the separation of these lineages. The presence of private rearrangements indicates a progressive accumulation of karyotype changes in the Leptostachyus group instead of an instant genome-wide repatterning.
