CYTOGENETIC, ECOLOGIC AND MORPHOLOGIC STUDIES IN BRAZILIAN FORMS OF PASPALUM DILATATUM

Abstract: The somatic number, meiotic behavior, morphology and ecology of five forms of Paspalum dilatatum Poir are reported. The sexual type yellow anther (2n = 40) showed essentially regular meiotic behavior. The common form (2n = 50) presented 20 II and 10 I in about 85% of the cells studied at diakinesis and metaphase I. Pauciciliatum (2n = 40) and Uruguaiana (2n = 60) showed a wide range of chromosome configurations at these stages; finally, Torres presented uniformly 60 univalents. These results are compared with … Show more

“…One accession presented a predominance of cells with just bivalents (MoraesFernandes et al, 1973). Variability in chromosome configurations in other Paspalum species have been reported by other authors such as Moraes-Fernandes et al (1968), Pagliarini et al (2001) and Adamowski et al (2005).…”

“…The genus Paspalum L. comprises around 400 species, most of them native to tropical and sub-tropical Americas (Moraes-Fernandes et al, 1968). Many of these species are important forages, due to quality, productivity and tolerance to environmental stresses (Valls, 2000).…”

“…A partir dos dados do presente trabalho, torna-se óbvio que a simples observação da morfologia não mais permite a determinação segura do biótipo "Torres", associada, desde sua primeira citação, à presença de 60 cromossomos (FERNANDES et al, 1968;BURSON, 1991).…”

“…A análise citogenética mostrou 50 cromossomos. Este acesso deve resultar da hibridação entre plantas dos biótipos "Virasoro" -4x, sexual (CAPONIO & QUARIN, 1990;HICKENBICK et al, 1992) e "Uruguaiana" -6x, apomítico (FERNANDES et al, 1968;BURSON, 1991). Dentre vários caracteres nitidamente intermediários, o aspecto mais distintivo é a presença de sete ou mais nervuras no lema estéril, característica típica do biótipo "Virasoro", mas em espiguetas muito menores, que reportam ao biótipo "Uruguaiana", ocorrente a poucos metros de distância do novo pentaplóide, no sítio original de coleta do acesso V14253 (Tabela2).…”

“…Many of the 400 species of genus Paspalum L., most of them native to tropical and sub-tropical Americas (Moraes-Fernandes et al, 1968) are important forages, as the well studied P. notatum Flügge (Pedreira and Pedreira, 2006), due to quality, productivity and tolerance to environmental stresses (Valls, 2000). About 75% of the described Paspalum species occur in Brazil, in a wide range of ecological conditions as part of several plant communities (Barreto, 1974).…”
