Open publisher page 7 citations

Abstract

Aspen ( Populus tremula ) from two locations in Iceland, representing the north and the east populations, were examined for its chromosome number. The plants all have diploid chromosome number (2n=2x=38), as with most other aspen populations of this species in Europe. No previous record of chromosome count on the Icelandic material is available. The significance of such chromosome study is discussed. — Flora Nordica Notes no. 22.
