Abstract

Cytological studies of the pollen mother cells of Zea mays Linn., (2n=20) and experimentally induced autotetraploid (4n=40) were undertaken to examine the pairing behaviour of chromosomes.The autotetraploid maize seeds were obtained from United States Department of Agriculture.In the diploid maize,
