ABSTRACT
The underlying processes behind the formation, evolution, and long-term maintenance of multiple sex chromosomes have been largely neglected. Among vertebrates, fishes represent the group with the highest diversity of multiple sex chromosome systems and, with six instances, the Neotropical fish genus Harttia stands out by presenting the most remarkable diversity. However, although the origin mechanism of their sex chromosome systems is well discussed, little is known about the importance of some repetitive DNA classes in the differentiation of multiple systems. In this work, by employing a combination of cytogenetic and genomic procedures, we evaluated the satellite DNA composition of H. carvalhoi with a focus on their role in the evolution, structure, and differentiation process of the rare XY1Y2 multiple-sex chromosome system. The genome of H. carvalhoi contains a total of 28 satellite DNA families, with the A + T content ranging between 38.1% and 68.1% and the predominant presence of long satellites. The in situ hybridization experiments detected 15 satellite DNAs with positive hybridization signals mainly on centromeric and pericentromeric regions of almost all chromosomes or clustered on a few pairs. Five of them presented clusters on X, Y1, and/or Y2 sex chromosomes which were therefore selected for comparative hybridization in the other three congeneric species. We found several conserved satellites accumulated on sex chromosomes and also in regions that were involved in chromosomal rearrangements. Our results provide a new contribution of satellitome studies in multiple sex chromosome systems in fishes and represent the first satellitome study for a Siluriformes species.
