Cytological and Morphological Characterization of Pisum sativum and Pisum fulvum Tetraploids

Abstract: Two colchicine-induced tetraploid lines, one belonging to Pisum sativum and the other to the wild species Pisum fulvum, were compared with their corresponding diploids and among themselves for chromosome number, meiotic behaviour and for pollen and pod fertility. For both hnes, five generations were analyzed; the tetraploid level was maintained throughout the generations.In P. fulvum, aneuploids with 27, 29 and 30 chromosomes were observed, while in P. sativum aneuploids with 29 chromomes were found. Meiotic a… Show more

“…The occurrence of polyploidy in the cells (Fig 3E) is associated above all with the endoreduplication process and the course of C-mitosis as indicated by many enlarged nuclei at the initial callus stage (21,20). The number of tetraploids in pea ( Fig 4A) was relatively low and contradictory to most reports showing prevailing tetraploidisation in cultures of this species (64,41,36,14). In most cases, the cultures were subcultivated for many years and this distinction may be the explanation for the discrepancy in the results, than it is apparent tendency from different genotypes of pea to tetraploidisation although the development of this pea culture is not an anomaly.…”

“…The reproductive barriers between wild crop progenitors and domesticated crops might be attributed to several mechanisms, including differences in karyotype or chromosomal rearrangements. Such karyotype differences are reported between P. fulvum and P. elatius , P. sativum , and between P. sativum and P. abyssinicum [72,73], and contribute to the partial fertility of the respective hybrids. Much less is known about the interactions between nuclear and cytoplasmic genomes.…”

“…They also reported that the chromosome length and the relative chromosome length varied between 3.86 -5.92 p and 5.64-8.86, respectively. In addition, Kar and Sen (1991), Mannan et al (1991) and Errico et al (1991) obtained that the chromosome number of Pisum sativum L. was 2n= 14. Kar and Sen (1991) reported that the chromosome lengths of Pisum sativum L. varied from 4.5-5.5 p. Kar and Sen (1991) also reported that the chromosomes of Pisum safivum L. have nearly submedian to submedian primary constriction.…”
