Larrea interspecific hybrids revisited (Zygophyllaceae)
Evidence from recent molecular studies suggested a reappraisal of genome relationships between Larrea ameghinoi and the other South American species of the genus. As a consequence, new attemps to study the meiotic pairing of the L. ameghinoi x L. cuneifolia hybrids were undertaken (2n = 3x = 39). Me...
