Cytotaxonomy of some species of vernonanthura and vernonia (asteraceae, vernonieae) from south America

The number and behavior of meiotic chromosomes in four populations of three species of Vernonanthura were analyzed. It was observed that all stages of meiosis were stable without chromosomal irregularities. The somatic chromosome number is reported for four populations of three species of Vernonanth...

It was observed that all stages of meiosis were stable without chromosomal irregularities. The somatic chromosome number is reported for four populations of three species of Vernonanthura and two populations of Vernonia. All species were diploid with 2n = 34.

description The number and behavior of meiotic chromosomes in four populations of three species of Vernonanthura were analyzed. It was observed that all stages of meiosis were stable without chromosomal irregularities. The somatic chromosome number is reported for four populations of three species of Vernonanthura and two populations of Vernonia. All species were diploid with 2n = 34. The first chromosome count is presented for Vernonanthura chaquensis (2n = 17II and 2n = 34). The karyotypes were determined for Vernonanthura lucida (32m + 2sm), V. oligactoides (24m + 10sm) and V. pseudolinearifolia (28m + 6sm); they are presented for the first time.
