Cytogenetic studies of Southern South-American Ilex
The dioecious genus Ilex (Aquifoliaceae) has been poorly studied from a cytogenetic point of view. Chromosome numbers of only ca. 5% of the species have been reported. In the present work the chromosome number of eight taxa from Argentina and Brazil are presented: Ilex taubertiana Loes., I. integerr...
