Türkiye’de yetişen Cheiranthus cheiri L. (Brassicaceae) türünün Karyotip Analizi

Abstract

Cheiranthus L. is a perennial herbaceous genus belonging to the family Brassicaceae. In this research, the karyotype analysis of the species of Cheiranthus
cheiri L. was examined using Image Analysis System. The chromosome number of the species was counted as 2n = 12; also the chromosome lengths range
from 0.70 to 1.08 µm. The total length of the haploid set is 5.11 μm. The basic chromosome number for this species is x = 6. As a classification result, the
karyotype formula is 6m. The ideogram was prepared using Image Analysis System.
