Genome Sizes in Hepatica Mill: (Ranunculaceae) Show a Loss of DNA, Not a Gain, in Polyploids
Journal of Botany, Volume 2010, Issue 1, 2010., 2010 Genome size (C‐value) was applied anew to investigate the relationships within the genus Hepatica (Ranunculaceae). More than 50 samples representing all species (except H. falconeri), from wild and cultivated material, were investigated. Species of Hepatica turn out to be diploid (2n = 14), tetraploid (2n = 28 ), and a possible pentaploid.
