Abstract

Cell suspension cultures of Triticum monococcum, Triticiam aestivum, Glycine max, Melilotus alba, and Haplopappus gracilis, were examined to determine whether chromosomal changes had occurred during culture. All cultures except H. gracilis showed change in chromosome number and the two species of Triticum showed abnormal karyotypes.
