Cytogenetics of pearl millet

Theoretical and Applied Genetics, 1982
The somatic karyotype of pearl millet Pennisetum americanum (L.) Leeke.

In the progeny of crosses between plants with the chromosome number 2n=13+2 telocentrics as the male parents and the normal diploids of Pennisetum typhoides S. & H., two plants with 2n=13+1 telocentric chromosome were located. These two plants were heterozygous for an interchange, since at diakinesis and metaphase I associations of four chromosomes ...
