DNA elimination in embryogenic development of Pennisetum glaucum x Pennisetum purpureum (Poaceae) hybrids.
Interspecific hybridization between Napier grass (Pennisetum purpureum), which is widely grown in Brazil for cattle forage, and pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum) has been used as a breeding strategy for the development of improved cultivars. However, the hybrid between these two species is sterile due to its triploid condition (2n = 3x = 21 chromosomes), which hinders its use in crop breeding p...
متن کاملChromosome Number Variation in Iranian Populations of Acorus calamus
Different ploidy levels, diploid (2n=2x=24) to hexaploid (2n=6x=72) have been reported for Acorus calamus, a perennial medicinal plant. According to available information, there is a significant relationship between the ploidy level and essential oil compositions and medicinal properties of this important genetic resource. However, there is no information about the chromosome number of A. calam...
متن کاملChromosome segregation from cell hybrids
We searched for evidence of aberrant movement or position of segregant set chromosomes in Cbanded and G-11 -banded early-phase hamstermouse and hamster-human cell hybrids that had been prepared with minimal disruption. No evidence was obtained for an increased frequency of multipolar mitosis, delayed or precocious metaphase congression or anaphase segregation, or for exclusion of chromosomes fr...
متن کاملChromosome number variation in somatic hybrids between transgenic tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) and Solanum lycopersicoides.
Leaf mesophyll protoplasts of Lycopersicon esculentum were fused with suspension-culture-derived protoplasts of Solanum lycopersicoides by a PEG treatment. Both species have the same chromosome number (2n = 2x = 24). The hybrid calli were selected using the full selection method - kanamycin resistance and culture conditions critical for L. esculentum protoplast divisions. The genomic in situ hy...
متن کاملSpontaneous Chromosome Aberrations in Triploid Tradescantia Hybrids.
T HAS recently been found that chromosome aberrations of the types I induced by various kinds of radiations occur spontaneously during the development of the pollen grains in diploid species and especially in species hybrids of Tradescantia (GILES 1940). The present studies have shown that the frequency of these aberrations is even higher in triploid Tradescantia hybrids. Furthermore, it has be...
