The progeny of two crosses between a structural heterozygote for a reciprocal translocation (4RL/5RL) and a homozygote for the standard chromosome arrangement and of four crosses between standard chromosome homozygotes were analysed in rye (Secale cereale L. cv 'Ailés') for the electrophoretic patte

✦ Synopsis
Rye secalins, telomeric C-bands, and telocentric chromosomes were used as markers in the progeny of a test-cross in order to determine the position of seed storage-protein genes Glu-R1 and Gli-R1 with respect to the centromere and both telomeres of chromosome 1 R in rye. These genes were linked to the centromere (32.35±3.28% and 36.27±3.37% recombination, respectively). Glu-R1 was loosely linked to the telomere of the long arm (43.63±3.47% recombination), while Gli-R1 was closely linked to the telomere of the short arm (9.80±2.08% recombination). This finding supports the possibility that rye ω- and γ-secalin genes may be located on the satellites, as has been described in wheat for genes that code similar proteins. The importance of metaphase-I pairing failure and its consequences for the estimation of the recombination fraction are also discussed.

A cytogenetic map of the whole 1 R chromosome of rye has been made, with distances between adjacent markers shorter than 50% recombination. Included in the map are isozyme loci Gpi-R1, Mdh-R1 and Pgd2, the telomere C-bands of the short arm (ts1) and the long arm (tl1), two interstitial C-bands in th
