Chromosome numbers in plant cytotaxonomy: concepts and implications

Guerra, M.·2008·Cytogenetic and Genome Research

Abstract

Chromosome number is the karyotype feature most commonly used in cytotaxonomical analyses. The chromosome number can be a plesiomorphic characteristic of a large clade or a recurrent trait which arose independently in two or more clades. Some concepts regarding chromosome number variation, such as base number, aneuploidy, paleopolyploidy, and neopolyploidy have been used by different authors in quite different ways. Therefore, its use in cytotaxonomy and karyotype evolution deserves much attention. In this paper, these terms are reappraised and their meaning and implication for plant cytotaxonomy are discussed.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
