Use of FISH in sequencing tomato chromosome 6René Klein LankhorstHans de Jong Korea meeting 2007
Topics • FISH to define the borders between euchromatin and heterochromatin • FISH to target novel seed BACs towards BAC-oceans
Standard assay 1: FISH • Prepare Cot-100 (protocols available) • Two-colour FISH with labeled Cot-100 and candidate BAC • Standard assay 2: spot-blot • Prepare Cot-100 Prepare spot-blot with candidate BAC and reference BACs • Hybridize with radioactive Cot-100 Proposed definition: Euchromatine is that part of the tomato genome that does not hybridize to the Cot-100 repetitive DNA fraction in a standard assay
Part 2 • FISH to target novel seed BACs towards BAC-oceans

Take-home messages • Cot-100 can be used to discriminate between euchromatin and heterochromatin and thus can be used to define borders. • (For the long arm of chr. 6) genetic gaps and physical gaps correspond and thus genetic information can be used to target novel seed-BACs towards BAC-oceans • (For the long arm of chr. 6) no indication for a bias in the HindIII library nor in the F2.2000 genetic map was found.
