Abstract

Tiarella polyphylla D. Don(Saxifragaceae) is a perennial herb and distributed in China, Japan, Taiwan and Korea. Especially, it only grows in Ulleung island of Korea. It has been using for asthma, bruise and audition troubles with main components of some Triterpenoids and seven oleanolic Saponins. There is only known its chromosomal number rarely and cytogenetic study was not done. From this study, karyotype analysis and chromosomal localization of 5S and 45S rDNAs using bicolor-FISH(fluorescence in situ hybridization) were carried out. The somatic metaphase chromosome number was 2n=2x=14 and the size of chromosomes ranged $1.66{\sim}3.50{\mu}m$. The chromosome complement consisted of four pairs of submetacentrics(chromosomes 1, 2, 3 and 6), two pairs of subtelocentrics(chromosomes 5 and 7) and one pair of telocentrics(chromosome 4). We also observed NOR(nucleolus organizer region) on the chromosome 4. In bicolor-FISH, one pair of 55 and 45S rDNA sites was detected on the centromeric region of chromosome 3 and short arm of chromosome 4, respectively. Bicolor FISH was very useful tool for the localization and identification of rDNAs on the chromosomes in Tiarella polyphylla.

헐떡이풀은 다년생 초본으로 중국, 일본, 대만 그리고 한국에 분포한다. 특히 우리나라에서는 울릉도에서만 분포하는데, 천식 치료, 타박상 그리고 청각장애의 치료에 사용된다. 약용작물로써의 높은 가치에도 불구하고 염색체 수를 제외한 다른 세포유전학적인 연구가 거의 이루어지지 않았다. 따라서 핵형분석 뿐만 아니라 bicolor FISH를 통한 5S 와 45S rDNA의 물리적 지도작성에 관한 연구가 수행되었다. 체세포 염색체 수는 2n=2x=14로 염색체의 길이는 $1.66{\sim}3.50{\mu}m$ 이다. 또한 염색체의 구성은 4쌍의 차중부 염색체(염색체 1, 2, 3, 6)와 2쌍의 차단부 염색체(염색체 5, 7)그리고 1쌍의 단부 염색체(염색체 4)로 확인되었다. 또한 4번 염색체가 부수체 염색체로 관찰되었다. Bicolor-FISH를 통해 각각 1쌍의 5S와 45S rDNA 위치를 확인하였는데, 5S rDNA의 경우 염색체 3번의 동원체 부위에서 확인되었고, 45S rDNA는 염색체 4번의 단완 말단 부위에서 관찰되었다. Bicolor-FISH는 헐떡이풀 염색체상에 rDNA 유전자의 위치 확인에 매우 유용한 정보를 제공하는 기술로 사용되었다.
