Abstract

|
Geographical distribution of diploid plants with AA genome (2n=16)and allotetraploid with AABB genome (2n=34) of Scilla scilloides Complex from Korea has been studied. The composition and frequencies of B chromosomes were also investigated. Plants with AABB genome were predominant over AA genome plants. A mixed population of AA and AABB genome plants was found for the first time. Aneuploid plants have not been found. Chromosomes of AA genome were composed of three pairs of metacentric, two pairs of submetacentric, two pairs of subtelocentric and one pair of telocentric chromosomes, whereas BB genome was four pairs of metacentric and five pairs of subtelocentric chromosomes. B chromosomes were classified into two categories, isochromosome (F) and chromosome fragment (f). The frequencies of B chromosomes were 43% in AA genome plants and 44% in AABB genome plants. The number of B chromosome ranged from 1 to 3 and 1 to 7 in AA and AABB genome plants, respectively. B chromosome combinations were F and F+f in AA genome plants and F,F+f and f in AABB genome plants.
