Abstract excerpt
The Brevivalvula section of the grass polyploid complex Pennisetum shows various reproductive systems, apomixis being the most widespread. Haplotype variation of chloroplast DNA was studied in the six morphological taxa (species) of this section by using RFLP analysis in 54 plants corresponding to 14 elementary taxa, each characterized on the basis of morphology and ploidy level. Two additional species,...
