Chromosome numbers of Australian and New Guinean species of Veronica (Plantaginaceae)

“…Chromosome numbers for most of the Australian and one New Guinean species are presented here (Table 1), making them available for a compilation of karyological data for Veroniceae (Albach et al submitted). Information on the New Zealand taxa is given by Dawson (2000) while Bayly and Kellow (2006) provide a revised and updated list of chromosome numbers for species formerly included in Hebe or Leonohebe. New taxa and taxonomic notes on these Australian taxa are presented by Briggs and Ehrendorfer (2006) in this issue of Telopea.…”

First karyotype description and nuclear 2C value for Myrsine (Primulaceae): comparing three species

“…Chromosome number 2n = 46 (Beuzenberg and Hair 1983, Dawson 1995, Dawson 2000, Molero et al 2002, Rice et al 2015, present study) and 2n = 48 (Molero et al 2006) had been reported, but this was the first record of 2n = 45. The odd chromosome number 2n = 45 was well-marked by absence of the homologue pair of the chromosome 23 (Fig.…”

“…As well as for FCM, karyotype data about Myrsine species in the literature are very limited, with only the chromosome number reported (Beuzenberg and Hair 1983, Dawson 1995, Dawson 2000, Molero et al 2002, Molero et al 2006, Rice et al 2015). In vitro Myrsine plantlets were fundamental for providing sufficient quantities of roots for the cytogenetic study independent of the reproductive period.…”

“…Previous studies regarding the chromosome number in Primulaceae (s. APG 2016) are available for some genera, as: Cyclamen Linnaeus, 1753 (Bennett and Grimshaw 1991, Ishizaka 2003), Anagallis Linnaeus, 1753 (Aguilera et al 2011, Bennett and Leitch 2012), Lysimachia Linnaeus, 1753 (Baltisberger and Kocyan 2010, Bennett and Leitch 2012, Chalup and Seijo 2013), Androsace Linnaeus, 1753 (Chepinoga et al 2009), Elingamita Baylis, 1951 (Dawson 1995), Trientalis Linnaeus, 1753 (Vickery and Miller 2008), Ardisia Swartz, 1788 (Koyama and Kokubugata 1998), Primula Linnaeus, 1753 (Abou-El-Enain 2006, Casazza et al 2012, Theodoridis et al 2013), and Dodecatheon Linnaeus, 1753 (Oberle et al 2012), and Myrsine Linnaeus, 1753 (Beuzenberg and Hair 1983, Dawson 1995, 2000, Hanson et al 2003, Rice et al 2015). Except the genus Cyclamen and Myrsine , these taxa comprise annual and biennial herbaceous species.…”

Chromosome number of two Chilean species of Nothofagus (Nothofagaceae)

“…On this respect, chromosome numbers and/or qualitative karyotype studies have been previously reported for 11 species of Nothofagus (30.5% of the species of the genus), seven of them inhabit various countries from Oceania (Armstrong & Wylie 1965, Wardle 1967, Ono 1977, Carr & McPherson 1986, Oginuma et al 1998, Wiltshire & Jackson 2003, and four occurring in Chile (Ono 1977) (Table I). The most frequent chromosome number described within the genus is 2n = 26 (Ono 1977, Dawson 2000, although one species from Oceania has been reported having a diploid number of 2n = 28 (N. cunninghamii (Hook.) Oerst.…”
