TL;DR: Nuclear genome sizes have been calculated for 19 genera and 30 species of Iridaceae using cytospectrophotometry and mean extinction values for nuclei in squashes of actively growing root tips stained in Schiffs reagent were compared with a standard maize.
Abstract: Nuclear genome sizes have been calculated for 19 genera and 30 species of Iridaceae using cytospectrophotometry. Mean extinction values for nuclei in squashes of actively growing root tips stained in Schiffs reagent were compared with a standard, maize, of known genome size, treated in the same
