Organization and expression analysis of 5S and 45S ribosomal DNA clusters in autotetraploid Carassius auratus

Abstract Background Autotetraploid Carassius auratus (4n = 200, RRRR) (abbreviated as 4nRR) is derived from whole genome duplication of Carassius auratus red var. (2n = 100, RR) (abbreviated as RCC). Ribosome DNA (rDNA) is often used to study molecular evolution of repeated sequences because it has...

Ribosome DNA (rDNA) is often used to study molecular evolution of repeated sequences because it has high copy number and special conserved coding regions in genomes. In this study, we analysed the sequences (5S, ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 region), structure, methylation level (NTS and IGS), and expression level (5S and 18S) of 5S and 45S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes in 4nRR and RCC in order to elucidate the effects of autotetraploidization on rDNA in fish.
