Pollen Morphology and its Contribution to the Taxonomy of Some Native Greek aegilops Species.

  • Chapter
Progress in Botanical Research

Abstract

Native Greek polyploid Aegilops species sharing two common genomes (Ae. ovata MU, Ae. triaristata UM, Ae. triaristata UMN) and the parental diploid species (Ae. umbellulata U, Ae. comosa ssp. comosa var. thessalica, ssp. heldreichii var. biaristata and subventricosa M, Ae. uniaristata N) are investigated for their pollen quantitative characters (genome symbols according to Kimber and Tsunewaki 1988). As in a previous paper (Panajiotidis et al. 1998) results are compared to those of different taxonomical discriminations based on morphological (Zhukovsky 1928. Eig 1929) and cytogenetical data (Kihara 1954. Chennaveeraiah 1960).
