The present paper deals with meiotic studies in 15 species belonging to 6 genera of the tribe Cichorieae from various localities of Western Himalayas. The chromosome number has been reported for the first time in Hieracium crocatum (2n = 10) and Lactuca lessertiana (2n = 2x = 16). Further, intraspecific variability has been reported for the first time in H. umbellatum (2n = 2x = 10 and 2n = 6x ...

A cytogenetic study was performed on M4 generation of gamma irradiated lines of Shirpan cultivar of tetraploid cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.). A significant difference was observed in cytogenetical characteristics such as the number and type of quadrivalents as well as percentage of cells showing abnormality among the irradiated and non irradiated lines. Cytomixis and post- pachytene diffuse st...
