Abstract excerpt
Alstroemeria (Alstroemeriaceae) displays a conserved and highly asymmetric karyotype, where most rDNA sites can be properly recognized by the size and morphology of the chromosomes. We analyzed the intraspecific variation of rDNA sites in A. longistaminea and compared with their distribution in other species (A. caryophyllaea and A. piauhyensis) and a representative of a sister genus, Bomarea edulis. All three...
