Chromosome number, genome size and heterochromatin evolution in diploid species of Ipomoea and related genera (Convolvulaceae: Convolvuloideae)
ABSTRACT Convolvuloideae is a group of plants formed by genera with n = 15 and high stability of chromosome numbers. Despite being stable, polyploidy is the main mechanism of karyotype evolution for the group and seems to be related to speciation events. The present work aimed to comparatively analy...
