Karyomorphology of Caesalpinia Species (Caesalpinioideae: Fabaceae) from Caatinga and Mata Atlantica Biomes of Brazil

Abstract: Out of 140 Caesalpinia s.l. species, only 20 species have the chromosome numbers presently known, and nine species have the karyomorphological studies available. We determine the karyotype and the chromosome morphometry in five Caesalpinia s.l. spp., and we describe the heterochromatin pattern in four of them. The diploid chromosome number of 24 was reported for the first time in Caesalpinia calycina, Caesalpinia microphylla and Caesalpinia pluviosa var. peltophoroides, and confirmed in Caesalpinia ferrea var.… Show more

“…The original cytogenetic data of five Brazilian endemic tree species were obtained as a complement to our previous karyomorphological studies (Rodrigues et al, 2012). Samples of each species were collected at different localities of Bahia State: C. bracteosa in Oliveira dos Brejinhos (13°36'07.6''S, 41°46'33.8''W), C. echinata in Ilhéus (14°47ꞌ20ꞌꞌS, 39°2ꞌ56ꞌꞌW) and Feira de Santana (12°16'01''S, 38°58'1''W), C. laxiflora and C. pyramidalis in Bom Jesus da Lapa (13°19'0.9''S, 43°20'14.8''W).…”

“…From this data, we calculated the ratio between chromosome arms (r = LA / SA), total chromosome length (TCL = SA + LA + SAT), the relative length of each chromosome, the average chromosome length (χ = ΣTCL / number of chromosomes), the haploid lot length (HLL), the AI for TF% (Huziwara, 1962), and the AI for A 1 of Romero Zarco (1986). The karyotypic formula was established, and the satellites were classified according to the pattern used before (Rodrigues et al, 2012). The karyograms and ideograms were obtained with the help of the Adobe Photoshop CS4.0 program.…”
