Abstract
The karyomorphological features of Holarrhena antidysenterica (Roxb. ex Fleming) Wall. through the application of differential staining techniques (using orcein, CMA, and DAPI) were studied. After applying orcein staining, the interphase nuclei of this species exhibited a ‘simple chromocenter type’ with numerous small heterochromatin blocks and the prophase chromosomes were ‘interstitial type’. The karyotype analysis revealed that this species possesses diploid chromosome number of 2n = 22, with all metacentric chromosomes. The total length of the chromosome complement in the diploid set was 29.91 μm. A total of four CMA-positive bands were observed in this species whereas seven bands were found after DAPI-staining. Heteromorphicity was observed in the DAPI stained metaphase stage indicating the probable occurrences of chromosomal aberrations such as deletion and inversion. The karyotype profile of H. antidysenterica obtained from orcein and fluorescent banding was determined for the first time in Bangladesh. Bangladesh J. Bot. 52(4): 1085-1089, 2023 (December)
期刊介绍:
Bangladesh in situated on the north of Bay of Bengal. Climatically it is a humid subtropical country. Most of the land is deltaic plain of two great rivers, the Ganges and the Bhrammaputra and it tributaries. The country has rich diversity of plants. Main crops cultivated are Rice, Jute, Wheat, Maize, Sugarcane, Mustard and different kinds of Lentils. There are a good number of Public and Private Universities and Plant Research Establishments.
Bangladesh Journal of Botany is the official organ of the Bangladesh Botanical Society established in 1972. Since 1972 Bangladesh Journal of Botany is being published regularly. Two issues of the Journal are published, one in June and another in December.
Scientific papers (Full paper and short communication) on any field of Plant Sciences from anywhere in the World are considered for publication in Bangladesh Journal of Botany.
