Plasticity in centromere organization: Holocentromeres can consist of merely a few megabase-sized satellite arrays

Y.-T. Kuo, A. S. Camara, V. Schubert, P. Neumann, J. Macas, M. Melzer, J. Chen, J. Fuchs, S. Abel, E. Klocke, B. Huettel, A. Himmelbach, D. Demidov, F. Dunemann, M. Mascher, , A. Houben

The paper analyzes the holocentromere organization in Chionographis japonica, revealing that its holocentromeres consist of few, large satellite arrays and differ from other holocentric species.

High temperature increases centromere-mediated genome elimination frequency in Arabidopsis deficient in cenH3 or its assembly factor KNL2

U. Ahmadli, M. Kalidass, L. C. Khaitova, J. Fuchs, M. Cuacos, D. Demidov, S. Zuo, J. Pecinkova, M. Ingouff, M. Mascher, S. Heckmann, A. Houben, K. Riha, I. Lermontova

The paper shows that high temperature increases genome elimination in Arabidopsis mutants lacking cenH3 or its assembly factor KNL2, enhancing haploid induction efficiency.

Helical metaphase chromatid coiling is conserved

I. Kubalova, A. S. Camara, P. Capal, T. Beseda, J.-M. Rouillard, G. M. Krause, H. Toegelova, A. Himmelbach, N. Stein, A. Houben, J. Dolezel, M. Mascher, H. Simkova, V. Schubert

The paper investigates metaphase chromosome organization in barley and finds evidence for a helical 400-nm chromatin fiber in chromatid arms, with conserved helical turning across large eukaryotic chromosomes.

Analysis of the small chromosomal Prionium serratum (Cyperid) demonstrates the importance of a reliable method to differentiate between mono- and holocentricity

M. Baez, Y.T. Kuo, Y. Dias, T. Souza, A. Boudichevskaia, J. Fuchs, V. Schubert, A.L.L. Vanzela, A. Pedrosa-Harand, A. Houben

The study analyzes Prionium serratum chromosomes to determine centromere organization, finding monocentricity instead of holocentricity and suggesting holocentricity evolved independently in two lineages.
