“…T. clusii and T. tomentosum contained seven pairs of metacentric and one pair of submetacentric type chromosomes ( Figure 2G, H). The chromosome number of T. clusii was determined as 2n = 16 by Zohary & Heller (1984) and that of T. tomentosum as 2n = 16 by Giri et al (1981) and 2n = 16 by Badr (1995).…”

This research comprises a karyologic study of the nine taxa of Trifolium from Turkey. From the Trifolium L. section, Trifolium striatum L. and T. leucanthum Bieb. chromosome numbers were 2n = 14, T. echinatum Bieb. was 2n = 16 and T. phleoides Pourr. ex Willd was 2n = 12. From the Vesicaria Crantz. section, T. resupinatum L. var. resupinatum, T. clusii Godr. and Gren., and T. tomentosum L. all had chromosome numbers of 2n = 16. Chromosome numbers of T. retusum, L. from section Lotoidea, Crantz. and T. glanduliferum Boiss. var. glanduliferum from section Paramesus (C. Presl) Gris. were all found to be 2n = 16. Seven of the 9 taxa contained all pairs of chromosomes and were metacentric; the remaining taxa included 7 were metacentric and only one pair was submetacentric. One pair of satellites was found in T. phleoides. This study reports detailed karyotype analyses from Turkey for the first time in Trifolium.
