THE CHROMOSOME NUMBER OF MAIZE [PDF]
Genetics, 1925 The wide-spread interest in the genetics of maize, coupled with the uncertainty as to the number of chromosomes occurring in this species prompted the investigation which is here reported. From a review of the literature it appears that Kuwada (1911, 1915, 1919) is the only worker who has reported extensive counts of maize chromosomes.

Chromosome number evolves at equal rates in holocentric and monocentric clades [PDF]
PLoS Genet, 2020 Despite the fundamental role of centromeres two different types are observed across plants and animals. Monocentric chromosomes possess a single region that function as the centromere while in holocentric chromosomes centromere activity is spread across ...

Genome size variation at constant chromosome number is not correlated with repetitive DNA dynamism in Anacyclus (Asteraceae). [PDF]
Ann Bot, 2019 BACKGROUND AND AIMS Changes in the amount of repetitive DNA (dispersed and tandem repeats) are considered the main contributors to genome size variation across plant species in the absence of polyploidy. However, the study of repeatome dynamism in groups

Chromosome number evolution in skippers (Lepidoptera, Hesperiidae)
Comparative Cytogenetics, 2014 Lepidoptera (butterflies and moths), as many other groups of animals and plants, simultaneously represent preservation of ancestral karyotype in the majority of families with a high degree of chromosome number instability in numerous independently ...

Variation in genome size, cell and nucleus volume, chromosome number and rDNA loci among duckweeds [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2019 Duckweeds are small, free-floating, largely asexual and highly neotenous organisms. They display the most rapid growth among flowering plants and are of growing interest in aquaculture and genome biology.

Unscrambling phylogenetic effects and ecological determinants of chromosome number in major angiosperm clades [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2018 As variations in the chromosome number are recognized to be of evolutionary interest but are also widely debated in the literature, we aimed to quantitatively test for possible relationships among the chromosome number, plant traits, and environmental ...
