The karyotype of Sophora tetraptera (Fabaceae (Leguminosae), subfam. Papilionoideae) is reported for the first time. The chromosome number, 2n = 18, coincides with former reports and is the most common number for the genus. ...

The taxa of genus Zea, maize and teosintes, have both intra and interspecific variation in its genome size, due to differences in heterochromatin content (Tito et al. Theor. App. Genet. 83:58-64, 1991; Poggio et al. Ann. ...

The karyotypes of nine Arachis hypogaea accessions, including two botanical varieties of subspecies hypogaea and four of subspecies fastigiata, were analyzed. Varieties aequatoriana and peruviana were studied for the first ...

The species of the genus Arachis (Leguminosae) are ordered into nine sections. The assignment of genome types in this genus has been based on cross-compatibility analysis and molecular cytogenetic studies. The latter has ...

In Argentina there are two different centers of maize diversity, the Northeastern (NEA) and the Northwestern (NWA) regions of the country. In NEA, morphological studies identified 15 landraces cultivated by the Guaraní ...

Within the cosmopolitan family Solanaceae, Physalideae is the tribe with the highest generic diversity (30 genera and more than 200 species). This tribe embraces subtribe Physalidinae, in which phylogenetic relationships ...

The karyotypes of Zea luxurians and a race of maize from northwestern Argentina are described and compared using 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) banding and fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) to localize the 180 ...
