• Chromosome configurations and structures during meiotic prophase were investigated by staining large repeated DNA sequences localized in the subtelomeric regions of all the chromosomes in rye, Secale cereale, in order to clarify when and how homolog pairing and bouquet formation occur. The changes of the spatial locations of chromosomes in the nucleus were investigated by the use of laser confocal microscopy, together with the surface-spreading method of silver nitrate staining to detect the formation of the synaptonemal complex. Homolog pairing in which homologs of four chromatids of a pair of homologs were coaligned in parallel but remained distinctly separate was microscopically detected for the first time in the present study. Homolog pairing showed the following characteristics: (1) it occurred at the leptotene-zygotene transition stage, prior to the formation of nodules and the synaptonemal complex; (2) the chromatin structure of chromosomes was in a state of decondensation; (3) it required no telomere clustering. These data suggest that homolog pairing represents a structure that indicates incipient recombination. After the homolog pairing stage, two kinds of bouquet configuration were found in zygotene. The commonly observed type was a loose bouquet, in which the subtelomeric regions were loosely aggregated. The other type was a definite bouquet, in which almost all the subtelomeric regions were conjugated, but this type was observed only in a limited number of the meiotic prophase cells of some individuals. It was concluded that the former represents the configuration of homologous recombination and the latter that of ectopic recombination.
