In the present study, however, extensive genomic changes were detected in two octoploid partial amphiploids of common wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)_wheatgrass (Agropyron intermedium (Host) P.B.=Elytrigia intermedia (Host) Nevski=Thinopyrum intermedium (Host) Barkworth and Dewey), namely Zhong 3 and Zhong 5, by RFLP analysis using 10 low_copy, wheat chromosome_specific sequences and 33 representative homoeologous group_specific sequences as probes. Genomic changes involved loss of wheat hybridization fragment(s) and/or acquisition of new fragment(s). Uniformity of the RFLP patterns among 5 individual plants taken respectively from Zhong 3 and Zhong 5 in two successive generations, suggested that genomic changes probably had occurred in the early few generations after octoploid amphiploid formation, and remained essentially static thereafter. The highly similar RFLP patterns between Zhong 3 and Zhong 5, which had identical genomic constitution but differed from each other due to involvement of different wheat varieties as parents imply that genomic changes were probably not at random. Possible causes for the extensive and rapid genomic changes in the newly formed plant amphiploids, as well as their implications for polyploid genome evolution and breeding application are discussed.展开更多
