Abstract:
The number of somatic cell chromosomes,the size and density of stomata,the morphology and size of pollen grains and microsporocytes on "Guilin Liangfeng"Seedless Ponkan (
Citrus reticulata Blanco)were identified.The results of cytological identifications showed the "Guilin Liangfeng"Seedless Ponkan was mixoploid(2n=2x=18 and 2n=4x=36)and its somatic cell ratio of 4x to 2x was 1:1,and the phenomenon was reported in Ponkan for the first time.Therefore, it is a new type mutant of seedless and may be used as the germplasm resources in citrus breeding.
