Abstract

Meiotic pairing frequencies of the Un and D genomes of Ae. ventricosa and the R of S. cereale could be easily established at metaphase I in Aegilops ventricosa - Secale cereale amphiploid plants as well as in its parental species by using the C-banding technique procedure. The results show a high diminution of chromosome pairing for all genomes in the amphiploid with respect to its parental species probably due to C-heterochromatin content and/or genotypic or cryptic interactions between the three genomes.
