Cytology of the genus Pinda P.K.Mukh. & Constance (Apiaceae): An endemic genus to the India

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: The cytological studies were undertaken for one of the endemic genera to India, i.e., Pinda P.K.Mukh. & Constance (Apiaceae). Cytological characters in the generic hierarchy of Pinda such as meiotic chromosome numberr n=11, somatic chromosome number 2n=22, and 2A asymmetric category of Stebbins classification have been observed. Chromosome number and karyomorphology of P. shrirangii Gosavi & Chandore are reported for the first time. Based on cytological characters, it was understood that Pinda is a cytologically stable genus and P. concanensis (Dalzell) P.K.Mukh. & Constance has an asymmetric karyotype, thus, it is an advanced species than P. shrirangii.
