THE MEIOTIC BEHAVIOR OF ANEUPOLYHAPLOIDS OF THE CULTIVATED OATAVENA SATIVA(2n = 6x = 42)

Open publisher page 16 citations

Abstract

Chromosome pairing and the frequency of secondary associations in two aneupolyhaploid plants of A. sativa are described. There was little evidence of pairing between homoeologous chromosomes in either plant. The results are discussed in relation to the genetic control of bivalent pairing in A. sativa and the possible divergence between the constituent genomes.
