Plant speciation through chromosome instability and ploidy change: Cellular mechanisms, molecular factors and evolutionary relevance

open access: yesCurrent Plant Biology, 2014
Plant speciation and diversification strongly rely on structural changes in the nuclear genome, both at the whole ploidy and individual chromosome level.

Plant reproduction research in Latin America: Toward sustainable agriculture in a changing environment

open access: yesPlant-Environment Interactions, Volume 5, Issue 3, June 2024.
The sustainability of Latin American agriculture in the face of climate change may depend on advances on plant reproduction research performed by local groups. Abstract Food production and food security depend on the ability of crops to cope with anthropogenic climate change and successfully produce seed.

Genome architecture and genetic diversity of allopolyploid okra (Abelmoschus esculentus)

open access: yesThe Plant Journal, Volume 118, Issue 1, Page 225-241, April 2024.
SUMMARY The allopolyploid okra (Abelmoschus esculentus) unveiled telomeric repeats flanking distal gene‐rich regions and short interstitial TTTAGGG telomeric repeats, possibly representing hallmarks of chromosomal speciation. Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes organize into 5S clusters, distinct from the 18S–5.8S–28S units, indicating an S‐type rRNA gene ...

CHROMOSOME STUDIES IN TURKISH SPECIES OF NONEA (BORAGINACEAE): THE ROLE OF POLYPLOIDY AND DESCENDING DYSPLOIDY IN THE EVOLUTION OF THE GENUS

open access: yesEdinburgh Journal of Botany, 2002
Seven Turkish species of Nonea Medik. (Boraginaceae-Boragineae) were studied karyologically using material collected in the field from wild populations. Somatic chromosome number and karyotype morphology were determined for each species using orcein staining. Nonea pulmonarioides is diploid with 2n=20, though some cells showed 2n=19.

Towards a FISH-based karyotype of Rosa L. (Rosaceae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The genus Rosa Linnaeus, 1753 has important economic value in ornamental sector and many breeding activities are going on supported by molecular studies. However, the cytogenetic studies of rose specks are scarce and mainly focused on chromosome counting
