Chromosome contribution to Andean Polyploid Species of Senecio (Asteraceae), from Argentina

Meiotic chromosome numbers were determined and observations of meiotic behavior were made in six species and two hybrid specimens of Senecio L. (Asteraceae). Two different numbers were found: 2n=4x=40 in S. pogonias Cabr., S. ragonesei Cabr., S. sectilis Griseb. and S. viridis Phil. var. radiatus R....
