TL;DR: The results showed that the highest concentration of aqueous extracts reduced the mitotic index, the seed germination and the root development of lettuce, and the extracts have also induced chromosome aberrations and cellular death in the roots cells of L. sativa.

TL;DR: The data provide new support for the occurrence of a polyploid series in Lippia alba, a tropical, aromatic shrub with a wide distribution, extensive morphological plasticity, and several chemotypes, and three are cytogenetically described here for the first time.

TL;DR: The analysis showed that the majority of genetic variation of La3-linalool could be a consequence of ixoploidy, and indicates that sexual reproduction in those three chemotypes is unlikely and suggests the beginning of reproductive isolation.

TL;DR: The data confirm previous reports regarding the variation within the taxonomic sections and also suggest a new revision in section Zapania, where two outlier species of Lippia have been transferred from the genus Lantana.

TL;DR: The occurrence of cytomixis in meiotic cells of L. alba (tetraploid cytotype) is described for the first time analyzing data obtained from meiotic behavior assays and the pollen size and viability were evaluated.
