Karyotype's Rearrangement in Some Hybrids of the Orchidinae Subtribe.

Based on our karyological findings in the Rich., L., and L.

New Cytogenetic Data for the Neottieae Tribe (Orchidaceae) in the Mediterranean Region.

This work presents a summary of cytogenetic data, including new information, on several species within the tribe Neottieae, with an update of the karyotype for 23 species belonging to the genera , , , and (including ). Each of these four genera also presents distinctive chromosomal features, such as bimodal karyotypes. Our research includes insights into the distribution of constitutive heterochromatin, measured using C-banding and, in some cases, specific fluorochromes for the detection of A-T- and G-C-rich DNA.

Comparative Cytogenetic of the 36-Chromosomes Genera of Subtribe (Orchidaceae) in the Mediterranean Region: A Summary and New Data.

This article provides a summary of the current knowledge on the cytogenetics of four genera, which are all composed of 36 chromosomes, within the Orchidinae subtribe (Orchidaceae). Previous classical studies have revealed differences in karyomorphology among these genera, indicating genomic diversity. The current study includes an analysis of the current knowledge with an update of the karyotype of 47 species with 36 chromosomes from the genera , , , and The study discusses comparisons of karyotypes among these genera that used traditional techniques as well as karyotype asymmetry relationships with various asymmetry indices.

Orchidaceae in Puglia (Italy): Consistency, Distribution, and Conservation.

A study of the distribution of orchid species in Puglia, based on an analysis of 2084 bibliographic reports from 2000 to 2022, was carried out with the aim of revising and updating the information on the consistency of the Orchidaceae family in Puglia, with a special focus on assessing threatened species occurring inside and outside protected areas. The work presents a checklist of the Orchidaceae taxa (genera, species, and subspecies) found in the region, including observations on genera and species that present taxonomic challenges. A total of 113 taxa (i.

Comparative chromosome studies in species of subtribe Orchidinae (Orchidaceae).

In our study, FISH mapping using 18S-5.8S-25S rDNA and 5S rDNA sequences was performed for the first time on Willdenow, 1805, (Burman f., 1770) Briquet, 1910 and (Linnaeus, 1753) Sprengel, 1826.

Karyomorphometry on three polyploid species of Arum L. (Araceae, Aroideae).

In this study three polyploid Arum Linnaeus, 1753 species from Southern Italy were chromosomally investigated. Arum italicum Miller, 1768 was found to have 2n = 84 chromosomes and a karyotype composed of numerous asymmetric chromosomes. Arum maculatum Linnaeus, 1753 and Arum apulum (Carano) P.
