The genus Gossypium is favorable for study of genome divergence at several levels. Early stages of divergence have been studied among four D genomes by comparing chiasma frequencies (reciprocal exchanges) between pairs of genomes and between individual counterpart chromosomes marked by heterozygous translocations. D(5) (G. raimondii) shows barely detectable differentiation from from D(h) (G. hirsutum), whereas D(7) (G. lobatum) is considerably less closely related to D(h) than is D(5). Fragmentary data suggest that D(2-2) (G. harknessii) falls between D(5) and D(7) in its relationship to D(h). Since chiasma frequencies in individual chromosomes and marked regions exhibit the same order of relationships as their corresponding whole genomes, it is concluded that the genome differentiation is generalized (i.e., nucleus-wide) rather than localized in specific chromosomes or chromosome regions. Estimates of relationships based on reciprocal exchange frequencies agree with those based upon preferential synapsis in allohexaploids reported previously. Since preferential synapsis and reciprocal exchange frequencies reveal the same order of relationships, it is concluded that to some extent they reflect common underlying changes in chromosome properties, despite recent evidence that synapsis and crossing over are under independent genetic control.
