abstract = {Oat × maize addition lines (OMAs) are plants of oat (Avena sativa L.) obtained by wide crossing with maize (Zea mays L.) that retained one or more maize chromosomes in the oat genome, which can result in morphological and physiological changes. The aim of the study was to determine the relationship between phenolics, pigments, sugars, and yield components in 14 OMAs and oat cv. Bingo under soil drought. The plants were sown in pots in a vegetation tunnel. The pots were watered to the level of 70% field water capacity (FWC) and then drought treated to 20% FWC for 2 weeks. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) showed that genotype and treatment significantly influenced the measured parameters. Out of 14 OMAs, lines 9 and 78b showed the highest grain weight and number, with the least amount of biomass loss under drought. These OMAs were the only two to equal or surpass the oat cv. Bingo under drought and control conditions. On average, soil drought caused decrease in biomass and the number and mass of grains (30%; 44%; 46%; respectively). Soil drought increased the amount of sugars by 15% and phenolics by 9% but decreased pigment contents by 8%. According to Pearson’s correlation coefficients, fifteen pairs of traits were positively and statistically significantly correlated in control and drought conditions. Significant relationships were found between the yield components and biochemical parameters on the fourteenth day of drought. A positive correlation occurred between the number and weight of kernels and the content of soluble sugars, chlorophyll a, b, and the sum of a and b. A negative correlation was found between all analyzed yield components and the content of phenolics. The results suggest the possibility of using such biochemical parameters as a quick physiological indicator of plant tolerance to soil drought. Variation in studied OMA lines reveals substantial differences in drought response, offering promising opportunities for targeted selection and breeding strategies. © 2025 by the authors.},

abstract = {Background. The oat×maize addition (OMA) lines are used for mapping of the maize genome, the studies of centromere-specific histone (CENH3), gene expression, meiotic chromosome behavior and also for introducing maize C4 photosynthetic system to oat. The aim of our study was the identification and molecular-cytogenetic characterization of oat × maize hybrids. Methods. Oat DH lines and oat × maize hybrids were obtained using the wide crossing of Avena sativa L. with Zea mays L. The plants identified as having a Grande- 1 retrotransposon fragment, which produced seeds, were used for genomic in situ hybridization (GISH). Results. A total of 138 oat lines obtained by crossing of 2,314 oat plants from 80 genotypes with maize cv. Waza were tested for the presence of maize chromosomes. The presence of maize chromatin was indicated in 66 lines by amplification of the PCR product (500 bp) generated using primers specific for the maize retrotransposon Grande-1. Genomic in situ hybridization (GISH) detected whole maize chromosomes in eight lines (40%). All of the analyzed plants possessed full complement of oat chromosomes. The number of maize chromosomes differed between the OMA lines. Four OMA lines possessed two maize chromosomes similar in size, three OMA-one maize chromosome, and one OMA-four maize chromosomes. In most of the lines, the detected chromosomes were labeled uniformly. The presence of six 45S rDNA loci was detected in oat chromosomes, but none of the added maize chromosomes in any of the lines carried 45S rDNA locus. Twenty of the analyzed lines did not possess whole maize chromosomes, but the introgression of maize chromatin in the oat chromosomes. Five of 66 hybrids were shorter in height, grassy type without panicles. Twenty-seven OMA lines were fertile and produced seeds ranging in number from 1-102 (in total 613). Sixty-three fertile DH lines, out of 72 which did not have an addition of maize chromosomes or chromatin, produced seeds in the range of 1-343 (in total 3;758). Obtained DH and OMA lines were fertile and produced seeds. Discussion. In wide hybridization of oat with maize, the complete or incomplete chromosomes elimination of maize occur. Hybrids of oat and maize had a complete set of oat chromosomes without maize chromosomes, and a complete set of oat chromosomes with one to four retained maize chromosomes. © 2018 Skrzypek et al.},

abstract = {The co-occurrence of hybrids and parental species in similar ecological niches poses a question on the role of traits additivity and overdispersion (emergence of new traits) in microevolutionary processes. We analysed genetic polymorphism of Bromus benekenii, B. ramosus and the spontaneous hybrid B. benekenii × B. ramosus in sympatric and allopatric parts of the species distribution in Europe, based on non-coding regions of the taxon genomes (ISSR genetic fingerprinting). We tested 68 individuals in 7 populations, including a hybrid population in N France. Altogether 233 polymorphic ISSR bands (loci) were obtained. We found that the parent species were genetically distinct and the hybrids had an additive pattern of ISSR bands found in the putative parental species (NMDS; STRUCTURE); however, there was evidence of introgression towards B. ramosus (NEWHYBRIDS; UPGMA classifications; Nei's D genetic distance). Bromus benekenii had 72, B. ramosus 21 and the hybrids 9 private bands (genetic overdispersion), probably resulting from the rearranged genomes. Based on its low genetic divergence index DW, the hybrid population seems to be at a young age. We argue that in the face of anthropogenic landscape transformations favouring secondary contacts, the hybrids may competitively replace the parental species in sympatric areas. © Polish Academy of Sciences and Jagiellonian University, Cracow 2015.},

abstract = {Despite not having been fully recognized, the cryptic northern refugia of temperate forest vegetation in Central and Western Europe are one of the most important in the Holocene history of the vegetation on the subcontinent. We have studied a forest grass Bromus benekenii in 39 populations in Central, Western and Southern Europe with the use of PCR-ISSR fingerprinting. The indices of genetic population diversity, multivariate, and Bayesian analyses, supplemented with species distribution modelling have enabled at least three putative cryptic northern refugial areas to be recognized: in Western Europe-the Central and Rhenish Massifs, in Central Europe-the Bohemia-Moravia region and in the Eastern/Western Carpathians. Central Poland is the regional genetic melting-pot where several migratory routes might have met. Southern Poland had a different postglacial history and was under the influence of an Eastern/Western Carpathian cryptic refugium. More forest species should be checked in a west-east gradient in Europe to corroborate the hypothesis on the Western European glacial refugia. © 2014 The Author(s).},

abstract = {We studied the thermophilous grass Bromus erectus in Central Europe to determine its pattern of population genetic structure and genetic diversity, using ISSR-PCR fingerprinting to analyze 200 individuals from 37 populations. We found three genetic groups with a clear geographic structure, based on a Bayesian approach. The first group occurred west and south of the Alps, the second east and north of the Alps, and the third was formed by four genetically depauperated populations in Germany. The populations from Germany formed a subset of the Bohemian-Moravian populations, with one private allele. Two differentiation centers, one in the Atlantic-Mediterranean and the second in the Pannonian-Balkan area, were recognized by species distribution modeling. The geographic distribution of the genetic groups coincides with the syntaxonomic split of the Festuco-Brometea class into the Festucetalia valesiaceae and Brometalia erecti orders. We found a statistically significant decrease in mean ISSR bands per individual from south to north, and to a lesser extent from the east to west. The former was explained by Holocene long-distance migrations from southern refugia, the latter by the difference in the gradient of anthropopression. We hypothesize a cryptic northern shelter of the species in Central Europe in the putative Moravian-Bohemian refugium. © Polish Academy of Sciences and Jagiellonian University, Cracow 2013.},
