Best results were achieved for cytological preparation from developing leaf buds of S. album when fixed in modified Cornoy's solution having from Chlorlde in traces hydrolysed in 1 : 9 parts of Normal Hcl and Aceto-orcein and stained in 2% Aceto-orcein. Chromosome number of diploid (2n = 20) and induced tetraploid (4n = 40) was counted by this techaiquea from leaf bads fixod at 1l.30 A.M. The induced tetraploids did not show the reversion trend to diploidy. Flowering is delayed in tetraploid.

Abstract


Best results were achieved for cytological preparation from developing leaf buds of S. album when fixed in modified Cornoy's solution having from Chlorlde in traces hydrolysed in 1 : 9 parts of Normal Hcl and Aceto-orcein and stained in 2% Aceto-orcein. Chromosome number of diploid (2n = 20) and induced tetraploid (4n = 40) was counted by this techaiquea from leaf bads fixod at 1l.30 A.M. The induced tetraploids did not show the reversion trend to diploidy. Flowering is delayed in tetraploid.
