Abstract
Structural changes of chromosomes are a primary mechanism of genome rearrangement over the course of evolution and detailed knowledge of such changes in a given species and its close relatives should increase the efficiency and precision of chromosome engineering in crop improvement. We have identified sequences bordering each of the main translocation and inversion breakpoints on chromosomes 4A, 5A and 7B of the modern bread wheat genome. The locations of these breakpoints allow, for the first time, a detailed description of the evolutionary origins of these chromosomes at the gene level. Results from this study also demonstrate that, although the strategy of exploiting sorted chromosome arms has dramatically simplified the efforts of wheat genome sequencing, simultaneous analysis of sequences from homoeologous and non-homoeologous chromosomes is essential in understanding the origins of DNA sequences in polyploid species.

<abstract><p>Structural changes of chromosomes are a primary mechanism of genome rearrangement over the course of evolution and detailed knowledge of such changes in a given species and its close relatives should increase the efficiency and precision of chromosome engineering in crop improvement. We have identified sequences bordering each of the main translocation and inversion breakpoints on chromosomes 4A, 5A and 7B of the modern bread wheat genome. The locations of these breakpoints allow, for the first time, a detailed description of the evolutionary origins of these chromosomes at the gene level. Results from this study also demonstrate that, although the strategy of exploiting sorted chromosome arms has dramatically simplified the efforts of wheat genome sequencing, simultaneous analysis of sequences from homoeologous and non-homoeologous chromosomes is essential in understanding the origins of DNA sequences in polyploid species.</p>

<p>Scientists have long understood that chromosome translocation is a major driving force in shaping genomes during evolution <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0079329-Burt1">[1]</xref>
–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0079329-Morrow1">[5]</xref>
. It has been well documented that translocations are frequently associated with genomic disorders <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0079329-Lupski1">[6]</xref>
–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0079329-Rowley1">[8]</xref>
and that translocated genes undergo an elevated rate of evolution <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0079329-Burt1">[1]</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0079329-Hao1">[9]</xref>
. Some studies also claim that translocation could alter levels of recombination <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0079329-McKim1">[10]</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0079329-Sherizen1">[11]</xref>
which is not only a major source of intra-specific variation but also an important constraint in crop improvement programs. Such programs aim to bring together multiple chromosomal segments containing favourable alleles into single plant lines.</p>
<p>The presence of the non-homoeologous translocations between chromosomes 4A, 5A and 7B in the hexaploid wheat (<italic>Triticum aestivum</italic>
L., 2n = 6x = 42, genomes AABBDD) is well known, with the first of these translocations was from studies of chromosome pairing and gene-based marker locations <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0079329-Naranjo1">[12]</xref>
. Detailed linkage analyses with molecular markers confirmed the presence of these translocations and also allowed the development of hypotheses on the possible evolutionary origins of these translocation and inversion events <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0079329-Liu1">[13]</xref>
–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0079329-Nelson1">[15]</xref>
. Analyses of bin-mapped expressed sequence tags (ESTs) showed that, in addition to the two well-known reciprocal translocations and two inversions, a third inversion was also likely involved in generating the structure of the modern chromosome arm ‘4AL’ <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0079329-MiftahudinRoss1">[16]</xref>
. It is believed that the 4AL/5AL translocation occurred at the diploid level as it is also present in <italic>T. monococcum</italic>
(2n = 2x = 14, genome AA) and the 4A/7B translocation must have occurred at the tetraploid level as it is also present in <italic>T. durum</italic>
(2n = 4x = 28, genomes AABB) <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0079329-Devos1">[14]</xref>
. Molecular marker profiles of chromosome addition and substitution lines indicated that a 4L/5L translocation may also exist in several other species within the tribe Triticeae <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0079329-King1">[17]</xref>
. However, due to the limited resolution of marker- or deletion bin-based analyses, fine details for any of these translocations and inversions are still not clear. As none of the techniques currently available allow rapid and accurate detection of these translocations in a given genotype, we still do not know the status of these translocations across the full spectrum of bread wheat and its close relatives. There is also no report on possible contributions of these translocations to wheat speciation.</p>
<p>Recent developments in genome sequencing offer an excellent opportunity to characterize these translocations at the gene level. Synteny-based comparisons of sequences between the sorted wheat chromosomes with those of other grass species identified five distinct segments forming the modern chromosome 4A and putative genes anchoring each of the breakpoints <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0079329-Hernandez1">[18]</xref>
. Similar approaches were used in identifying genes bordering the 7BS/5AL breakpoint on the modern 7BS <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0079329-Berkman1">[19]</xref>
. Compared with those from previous data which are predominantly based on chromosome pairing or molecular marker analyses, the resolutions offered by these gene-based studies should be significantly higher. However, it is well known that duplications of genes or chromosome segments are common in wheat <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0079329-Salse1">[20]</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0079329-Brenchley1">[21]</xref>
. Thus, accurate identification of translocation breakpoints could be difficult when analyses are focused on a single chromosome or even a set of homoeologous chromosomes. Further, attempts to trace the evolutionary origins of the modern chromosomes by exploiting genome sequencing data have not been made. Working toward a better understanding of the biological consequences of translocations and tracing the evolutionary origins of the modern chromosomes, we systematically analysed the structures of the 4A, 5A and 7B chromosomes by comparing <italic>Brachypodium</italic>
genes against survey sequences of sorted wheat chromosome arms and validating locations of selected genes using bin-mapped ESTs. These analyses identified genes neighbouring breakpoints of these translocation and inversion events thus allowing, for the first time, detailed descriptions of the origins of the modern chromosomes 4A, 5A and 7B of bread wheat at the gene level.</p>

<sec sec-type="materials|methods" id="s2"><title>Materials and Methods</title>
<p>Previous evidence shows that genome segments are highly conserved between wheat and <italic>Brachypodium</italic>
although small disruptions of colinearity are not uncommon <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0079329-Hernandez1">[18]</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0079329-Griffiths1">[22]</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0079329-Vogel1">[23]</xref>
. Analyses carried out in this study focused on those chromosomal rearrangements evidenced by two or more genes with the same pattern of chromosome arm locations. The known structures of chromosomes 4A, 5A and 7B reported previously <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0079329-Liu1">[13]</xref>
–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0079329-MiftahudinRoss1">[16]</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0079329-MickelsonYoung1">[24]</xref>
were used to group <italic>Brachypodium</italic>
orthologs examined in the initial analyses. Data based on comparison of <italic>Brachypodium</italic>
genes with deletion bin-mapped wheat ESTs were used to determine the relative positions and orientations of orthologs within segments of chromosome arms.</p>
<p>As a consequence of the high degree of rearrangement on what is considered the modern chromosome 4A, its arm ratio has been reversed <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0079329-Liu1">[13]</xref>
–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0079329-MiftahudinRoss1">[16]</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0079329-MickelsonYoung1">[24]</xref>
. As a result, discussion of the various historical states of this chromosome can become difficult to understand. To alleviate this confusion, this manuscript uses 4AS and 4AL to refer to the arms of the original ancestral version of this chromosome, while the modern chromosome arms are referred to as ‘4AS’ and ‘4AL’.</p>

<p>Several ESTs were mapped to each of the three smallest segments on the modern chromosome arm ‘4AL’ (4AL-3, 4AL-4 and 7BS-1, respectively) <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0079329-MiftahudinRoss1">[16]</xref>
. However, we found corresponding <italic>Brachypodium</italic>
genes for only a few of these ESTs (<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="pone.0079329.s003">Table S3</xref>
) preventing us from accurate allocation and orientation of the <italic>Brachypodium</italic>
orthologs on these segments. Considering the orders of the genes on the original chromosomes and the translocation and inversion events, orientations of these fragments could be deduced as (from centromere): increasing gene IDs for those in 4AL-3, decreasing gene IDs for those in 4AL-4 and decreasing gene IDs for those in 7BS-1 (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="pone-0079329-g001">Fig. 1</xref>
; <xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="pone.0079329.s002">Tables S2</xref>
and <xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="pone.0079329.s003">S3</xref>
). The deduced orientations for those genes on 4AL-3 and 4AL-4 seem to be in agreement with the findings by Hernandez et al. <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0079329-Hernandez1">[18]</xref>
who reported that genes bordering the ‘segment C’ derived from the original 4AL on the modern ‘4AL’ have opposite orientations. Our data confirm that these genes form two separate 4AL segments (4AL-3 and 4AL-4 in <xref ref-type="fig" rid="pone-0079329-g001">Fig. 1</xref>
) on the modern ‘4AL’ as proposed by Miftahudin et al. <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0079329-MiftahudinRoss1">[16]</xref>
.</p>
<p>Previous models of the structures of chromosomes 5A and 7B are highly consistent <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0079329-Naranjo1">[12]</xref>
–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0079329-Devos1">[14]</xref>
. The structure of the chromosome 4A is less clear. Based on next-generation sequencing Hernandez et al. <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0079329-Hernandez1">[18]</xref>
suggested that five segments form the modern chromosome 4A. Our results show that this chromosome contains at least nine segments (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="pone-0079329-g001">Fig. 1</xref>
), a structure similar to that deducted from deletion bin-mapped ESTs <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0079329-MiftahudinRoss1">[16]</xref>
. However, we found that many of the deletion-bin mapped ESTs detect sequences on large numbers of chromosome arms (<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="pone.0079329.s005">Table S5</xref>
) thus could not be used reliably in tracing the origins of a gene or a chromosome segment. We also found evidence showing that a small segment (4AS-1 in <xref ref-type="fig" rid="pone-0079329-g001">Fig. 1</xref>
) relocated from the original 4AS to the modern ‘4AS’ during the second pericentric inversion (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="pone-0079329-g001">Fig. 1</xref>
).</p>
<p>Analysis of chromosome pairing showed that the terminal segment of the modern ‘4AS’ is homoeologous to 4BS and 4DS <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0079329-Naranjo1">[12]</xref>
, indicating the first pericentric inversion (marked as event ‘B’ in <xref ref-type="fig" rid="pone-0079329-g001">Fig. 1</xref>
) was proximal to the telomere of the original 4AS. This chromosome pairing result seems to be supported by the locations of two deletion bin-mapped ESTs, BE518074 and BE494743 <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0079329-MiftahudinRoss1">[16]</xref>
. These two ESTs, when analysed by sequence similarity against sequences of the sorted wheat chromosome arms showed that, although both detected sequences on the modern chromosome arm ‘4AS’, neither gave a clear matching chromosome pattern to confirm that they were translocated from the original 4AS to the modern ‘4AS’ (<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="pone.0079329.s005">Table S5</xref>
). BE518074 matched <italic>Brachypodium</italic>
gene <italic>Bradi2g54210.</italic>
However <italic>Brachypodium</italic>
orthologs on either side of this gene failed to detect sequences on each of the three short arms of the homoeologous group 4 chromosomes (<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="pone.0079329.s006">Table S6</xref>
). Thus the question whether the inversion breakpoint was proximal to the telomere of the original 4AS remains unanswered.</p>
<p>The strategy of sequencing the wheat genome based on sorted chromosomes or chromosome arms has significantly simplified wheat genome research as it circumvents many of the complications caused by the hexaploid nature of this species <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0079329-Hernandez1">[18]</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0079329-Berkman1">[19]</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0079329-Berkman2">[25]</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0079329-Doleel1">[26]</xref>
. However, caution is required when using results obtained from such a strategy to trace the evolutionary origin of a given gene or a chromosome segment. For example, <italic>Bradi1g00227</italic>
and <italic>Bradi1g02980</italic>
were reported to flank the original 5AL segment on the modern ‘4AL’ <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0079329-Hernandez1">[18]</xref>
. Our results showed that the segment flanked by <italic>Brad1g00450</italic>
and <italic>Bradi1g00580</italic>
was actually translocated from the original 5AL to the modern 7BS as the majority of the genes residing on this segment have homoeologous sequences on 7BS, 5BL and 5DL (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="pone-0079329-g001">Fig. 1</xref>
, <xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="pone.0079329.s007">Table S7</xref>
). The location of these genes on 7BS is further supported by the fact that most of these genes were found to be present on the 7BS syntenic build <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0079329-Berkman1">[19]</xref>
. Many of the genes between <italic>Bradi1g00227</italic>
and <italic>Bradi1g00460</italic>
detected homoeologous sequences on the modern ‘4AL’. However, most of them also detected multiple sequences on chromosomes belonging to several homoeologous groups. For example, <italic>Bradi1g00227</italic>
detects homoeologous sequences on 21 chromosome arms belonging to six of the seven homoeologous groups of bread wheat (<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="pone.0079329.s007">Table S7</xref>
). The multiple locations of many genes in bread wheat are not surprising considering its hexaploid nature and the well-known fact that duplications of genes or chromosome segments are common in this species <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0079329-Salse1">[20]</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0079329-Brenchley1">[21]</xref>
.</p>
<p>Another example is the 7BS syntenic build where <italic>Bradi1g49497</italic>
was suggested to be one of the genes neighbouring the 7BS/5AL breakpoint on this chromosome arm <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0079329-Berkman1">[19]</xref>
. We found that the anchoring gene for this breakpoint is <italic>Bradi1g49340. Bradi1g49497</italic>
detected sequences on both 7BS and 4AL and most of the <italic>Brachypodium</italic>
orthologs between these two genes belong to a segment translocated from the original 7BS to the modern ‘4AL’ as they detected homoeologous sequences on ‘4AL’, 7AS and 7DS, respectively (<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="pone.0079329.s008">Table S8</xref>
). These examples demonstrate that a more in-depth simultaneous analysis of sequences from homoeologous and non-homoeologous chromosomes is essential in understanding the origins of a DNA sequence in polyploid species.</p>
