Chromosomal interchanges in plants

TL;DR: A discussion of how translocations have been and how they might be used as tools in the investigation of other cytological and cytogenetic problems and also certain applications to practical breeding have been included.

A re-examination of the mechanisms of 2n gamete formation in potato and its implications for breeding

M.S. Ramanna
- 01 Nov 1979 - 
TL;DR: To elucidate the genetic basis of 2n gamete formation in potato, it is desirable to answer whether there are exclusive genetic mechanisms for the formation of first or second division restitution gametes; to establish reliable cytological criteria for their detection; and to determine the effect of environmental factors on the occurrence of different mechanisms.

2n gametes in potato species and their function in sexual polyploidization

TL;DR: Proof is presented for the occurrence of alleles governing 2n pollen production in the cultivated tetraploids, providing additional evidence for the hypothesis that 2n gametes have been involved in their origin.

The Secondary Association of Chromosomes

W. J. C. Lawrence
- 30 Nov 1931 - 
TL;DR: It is claimed that secondary association is evidence of more remote affinities than can ever be expressed in primary association in a poly-ploid, proved by the occurrence of true (primary) association in triploid Pyrus between chromosomes which only show secondary association in the diploid form.
Journal ArticleDOI

Primary and secondary chromosome balance in Pyrus.

TL;DR: The pairing, morphology, and breeding results show that the thirty-four chromosomes in the “diploid”Pyrus are of seven types, of which four are represented four times and three are represented six times, which makes it plausible that the Pyrus group owe their special morphological characters to this reorganisation of the nucleus.
