These complex genomes have hindered deciphering the genome structure and marker-assisted selection in sugarcane breeding. Ten cultivars were analyzed by fluorescence in situ hybridization adopting chromosome painting and S. spontaneum-specific probes. The results showed six types of chromosomes in the studied cultivars, including S. spontaneum or S. officinarum chromosomes, interspecific recombinations from homoeologous or nonhomoeologous chromosomes, and translocations of S. spontaneum or S. officinarum chromosomes. The results showed unexpectedly high proportions of interspecific recombinations in these cultivars (11.9-40.9%), which renew our knowledge that less than 13% of chromosomes result from interspecific exchanges. Also, the results showed a high frequency of translocations (an average of 2.15 translocations per chromosome) between S. officinarum chromosomes. The diverse types of chromosomes in cultivars imply that hybrid gametes of S. spontaneum and S. officinarum may form unusual chromosome pairs, including homoeologous or nonhomoeologous chromosomes either between or within S. spontaneum and S. officinarum. Moreover, we consistently observed 11 or 12 copies for the four studied chromosomes, i.e., chromosomes 1, 2, 7, and 8, suggesting steady transmission during the breeding program. By comparison, we found a relatively fewer copies of S. spontaneum chromosome 1 than those of S. spontaneum chromosomes 2, 7, and 8. These results provide deep insights into the structure of cultivars and may facilitate chromosome-assisted selection in sugarcane breeding. 收起
