The occurrence of cyclical translocation involving three non-homologous chromosomes and affecting pollen stainability has been observed in two cranberry cultivars: Howes, and Wilcox, a progeny of Howes. These cultivars were crossed with six normal cranberry cultivars to study the transmission of the cyclical translocation to their progeny. The translocational progeny were determined by pollen tetrad analysis. A total of 102 individuals (6 crosses) were analyzed in the progeny of Wilcox and 116 individuals (5 crosses) in the progeny of Howes. The ratios observed in the progeny of Wilcox and Howes were 71 translocated: 31 normal, and 79 translocated: 37 normal, respectively. The segregations deviated from the expected 1 translocated: 1 normal progeny ratio, but fit either a 3:1 or 2:1 ratio. The altered segregations may indicate the presence of a balanced lethal system located in the translocated segments of both Howes and Wilcox. Sterile individuals were found in the progeny of Wilcox × Howes, which could indicate that the two parents have non-identical translocations. The translocated progeny of both cultivars had a normal distribution for pollen stainability, which indicated that both the occurrence of crossing over in the interstitial region and the segregation of chromosomes are under polygenic control.
