“…The average percentage of dead pollen among all the genotypes was 40.75% complement to the average percentage of living pollen among genotypes which was 59.25%. Similar to the results reported here that growth of anther in the genotypes of Ms22 and Ms12 belonged to M. spicata, was completely stopped, Ikeda and Udo (1966) also showed that growth of anther in a number of mint genotypes, belonging to M. arvensis and M. spicata, was completely stopped due to male sterility, and seed was formed due to the presence of free pollination in the field. This information can be used in breeding programs of mint due to the difficulty of mint emasculation.…”

Mentha is one of the most important genera of the Lamiaceae with a wide geographical distribution and considerable commercial importance. The general aim of this work was to group 34 accessions from four species of mint using ISSR molecular markers to select some accessions to estimate the potential cross-ability of mints valuable in breeding and phytochemical research. The reproductive characteristics including the type of flower, petal color, sepal and petal lengths, length of stamen and pistil as well as the number of free and living pollen grains in the anther were also studied to find out cross-ability patterns and the possible reproductive barriers. Analysis of molecular variance (AMOVA) among and within species showed more intra-specific variation (92.24%) in comparison with inter-species variation (7.76%). Results of cluster analysis based on ISSR data grouped the mint genotypes into five clusters. By this, the greatest genetic similarity was found between Ms12 from M. spicata and Ml29 from M. longifolia. The genotype Ms12 along with Ms22, the other genotype from M. spicata, were found to be male sterile due to stopped stamen development. These two had higher combining ability (seed set) when used as the female parent in intra-specific crosses and when crossed with M. longifolia compared to the other genotypes in diallel crosses. The highest number of hybrid seeds was obtained where Ml29 was crossed as the male parent with male sterile Ms12 as the female one. This high success rate of seed set in interspecific crosses between M. spicata and M. longifolia could be related to their genomic similarity confirmed by ISSR molecular data. Therefore, producing hybrid seeds and subsequent generations from crosses between these species, utilizing male sterility mechanism, can be a source of new genetic variation for mint.

“…While almost all collections of M. arvensis, M. longifolia and M. canadensis were counted, only selected F 1 hybrids were counted: 23-7, 23-7 (4n), 23-26, 23-32, 23-38, 23-40, and 23-64 (these clones were sent to NCGR, National Clonal Germplasm Repository, in 1990 and 1991 and are currently part of the Mentha collection). Mentha arvensis ArvBaqms and ArvGentKempms were previously counted by Tucker and Fairbrothers (1990) as 2n = 72; M. canadensis CanBrazil701ms was previously counted by J. K. Morton as 2n = 96, CanHokushin was previously counted by Tsuda (1952) as 2n = 96, and CanTodd2nArv was previously counted by Ikeda & Udo (1966b) as 2n = 96.…”

“…While M. arvensis of Europe has a somatic chromosome number of 72 (Tucker & Fairbrothers, 1990), M. canadensis of North America and Asia has 2n = 96: Canada (Mulligan and Cody, 1968;Gill, 1971;Gill & al., 1973;Chambers & Hummer, 1994), China (Tsuda, 1952), India (Harley & Brighton, 1977;Kundu & Sharma, 1985), Japan (Ruttle, 1930(Ruttle, , 1931(Ruttle, , 1938Tsuda, 1952Tsuda, , 1963Ikeda & Konishi, 1954;Ikeda & Ogo, 1954;Ikeda & Udo, 1955a, b, 1958b, 1966bIkeda & al., 1956Ikeda & al., , 1963Ikeda & al., , 1968Ikeda & al., , 1970Murray, 1960b;Ammal & Sobti, 1962;Sobti, 1965Sobti, , 1971bIkeda & Ono, 1967, 1969a, Russia (Makarov & Reznikova, 1972), and U.S.A. (Gill, 1971;Gill & al., 1973;Chambers & Hummer, 1994). Plants with 2n = 72 from Asia were later shown to be a hybrid of M. canadensis × M. japonica (Ikeda & al., 1970), while those reported for North America with 2n = 72 are probably naturalized plants from Europe (e.g., Löve & Löve, 1982a).…”

Two clones of Mentha arvensis L., both with 2n = 72 from Europe, one with 49.20 ± 2.28% pulegone, another with 57.31 ± 9.41% linalool, were hybridized with M . longifolia (L.) L. from Europe with 2n = 24 and 51.87 ± 0.50% trans-piperitone oxide. The F 1 hybrids had essential oils rich in pulegone, isomenthone, menthone, trans-isopulegone, menthol, neomenthol, 3-octanol, linalool, cis-piperitone oxide, trans-piperitone oxide, carvone, limonene, piperitenone oxide, trans-carveol, trans-sabinene hydrate, 3-octanone, terpinen-4-ol, (Z)-ßocimene, geranyl acetate, citronellyl acetate, and/or ß -caryophyllene. Thirty-nine F 1 hybrids of this cross are similar to 23 clones of M . canadensis L. from North America and Asia with 2n = 96 when compared by chromosome numbers, morphology, and essential oils. Mentha canadensis is proposed as a relict amphidiploid of the mixed mesophytic flora of the Lower Tertiary.
