In a random sample of 2263 cloned genomic DNA fragments of the wild potato species Solanum spegazzinii six related, highly repetitive fragments (SPG repeat family) were identified that were present in much higher copy numbers in S. spegazzinii when compared with the closely related cultivated potato S. tuberosum. The SPG repeat family was organized in long arrays of multiple copies. Cross hybridization experiments with 29 wild and cultivated Solanum species and with the related tomato showed specificity of the SPG repeat family for tuber-bearing Solanum species. Among tuber bearing Solanum species a high degree of variation was observed for restriction fragment length and copy number. The variation in copy number was not correlated with established taxonomic relationships between tuber-bearing Solanum species. DNA sequence analysis revealed a subrepeat structure of 120-140 base pairs embedded in longer repeat units of variable length. Length polymorphisms between highly repeated restriction fragments detected by the SPG probes were used for segregation- and linkage analysis in four mapping populations of potato, for which RFLP maps had been constructed. Twelve loci were identified, eleven of which mapped to the distal ends of nine linkage groups. All the evidence suggested that the SPG repeat family represents a satellite repeat members of which are localized in the subtelomeric region of potato chromosomes. The SPG repeat family could be used, therefore, for completing the genetic map of potato.
