New members of a satellite DNA family (Sat121), specific for wild beets of the section Procumbentes of the genus Beta, were isolated. Sequence analysis showed that the members of Sat-121 fall into two distinct classes. The organization of Sat-121 in the vicinity of a beet cyst nematode (Heterodera schachtii Schm.) resistance locus (Hs1)in B. patellaris and B. procumbens was investigated by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) using DNA from a series of resistant monosomic fragment additions, each containing an extra chromosome fragment of B. patellaris chromosome-1 (pat-1) in B. vulgaris. In this way several clusters of Sat-121 flanking the Hs1Pat-1 locus were identified. In nematode resistant diploid introgressions (2n=18), which contain small segments of B. procumbens chromosome-1 (pro-1) in B. vulgaris, only two major Sat121 clusters were detected near the Hs1pro-1 locus.
