Molecular Evidence for a Natural Primary Triple Hybrid in Plants Revealed from Direct Sequencing

Abstract: Even though the triple hybrid is sterile, it possesses an efficient strategy for its existence and became locally successful even in the parental environment, perhaps as a result of heterosis. The population investigated is the only one known of this hybrid, P. x torssanderi, worldwide. Isozyme analysis indicated the colony to be genetically uniform. The plants studied represented a single clone that seems to have persisted at this site for a long time.

“…Our previous studies have revealed a very low level of intra-individual polymorphism in the multicopy nuclear ribosomal ITS region for Potamogeton species as well as relatively little intraspecific variation while hybrids, the majority of which are sterile, maintained the ribotypes of their respective parents (Kaplan & Fehrer 2007). These features provide an opportunity for the use of ITS sequencing as a very helpful tool in the detection of hybrids, which show additive patterns of their parents, i.e., superimposed peaks and insertions/deletions (indels) at diagnostic positions (Kaplan & Fehrer 2007).…”

“…Although character expression in hybrids is generally unpredictable (Rieseberg & Ellstrand 1993), several previous molecular studies (Hollingsworth et al 1995;Kaplan et al 2002;Fant & Preston 2004;Kaplan & Fehrer 2004Kaplan & Wolff 2004;Kaplan 2007) have demonstrated that for most Potamogeton and Stuckenia hybrids, either the parental species themselves or at least their respective species group can be reliably identified morphologically, as long as adequate expert inspection of a large set of key features is adopted. However, molecular proof of identification of Potamogeton hybrids is always advisable (Kaplan & Fehrer 2007), particularly if a previously unknown hybrid combination is suspected.…”

“…Furthermore, in such a genus, hybridization is considered to be relatively frequent, and complex series of polyploidy and aneuploidy are present (e.g., Haynes 1974;Haynes and Hellquist 1978;Les 1983;Wiegleb 1988;Hollingsworth et al 1998;Kaplan et al 2002;Fant et al 2003). Both hybridization and polyploidy play significant roles in the evolution and diversification of various members of Potamogeton (Hollingsworth et al 1995;Kaplan and Fehrer 2007). In addition to phenotype plasticity, within Potamogeton, the chromosome numbers exhibit extensive variation both inter-and intraspecifically.…”

“…Since Wiegleb's (1988) comprehensive description of Potamogeton, increasing numbers of natural interspecific hybrids have been reported and identified that occurred between species either in the same or different ploidy levels (Kaplan et al 2002;Kaplan and Fehrer 2007;Lindqvist et al 2006;Du et al 2009;Wang et al 2007). P. 9 intortusifolius (He 1988), the synonym of P. anguillanus (Miki 1937;Lida and Kandono 2002), is a putative natural hybrid recorded in China.…”
