Meiotic studies in ten species of Hybanthus Jacq. (Violaceae) from South America
Chromosome numbers and meiotic behaviour of 10 native species of Hybanthus in South America were analyzed. 3 different chromosome numbers were found: 2n=16 for Hybanthus atropurpureus (A. St.-Hil.) Taub., H. bigibbosus (A. St.-Hil.) Hassl. and H. paraguariensis (Chodat) Schulze-Menz, 2n=32 for H. bi...

Chromosome numbers and meiotic behaviour of 10 native species of Hybanthus in South America were analyzed. 3 different chromosome numbers were found: 2n=16 for Hybanthus atropurpureus (A. St.-Hil.) Taub., H. bigibbosus (A. St.-Hil.) Hassl. and H. paraguariensis (Chodat) Schulze-Menz, 2n=32 for H. bicolor (A. St.-Hil.) Baill., H. calceolaria (L.) Oken, H. communis (A. St.-Hil.) Taub., H. hasslerianus (Chodat) Hassl., H. leucopogon Sparre and H. nanus (A. St.-Hil.) Paula-Souza, and 2n=48 for H. longistylus Schulze-Menz. This is one of the first reports for 8 analyzed species. Nowadays, the basic chromosome numbers in the South American Hybanthus species are under discussion.
