Telomeric heterochromatin, seeds and meiotic characteristics in two tricepiro lines
A hybrid, named tricepiro, was obtained in 1972, by crossing a hexaploid triticale (2n=6×=42) and an octoploid trigopiro (2n=8×=56). The lines achieved include the tricepiro Don René INTA, which has shriveled kernels, and FA-L2, which has smooth ones. The relationship between the heterochromatin con...

The C-banding in rye chromosomes in mitotic metaphase indicated that the average percentage of heterochromatin content did not differ significantly between the two lines. In contrast to our expectations, the meiotic behavior and seed characteristics were not related to the heterochromatin percentage of the rye chromosomes of the tricepiro lines studied.
