Cytological studies on some accessions of African yam bean (AYB) (Sphenostylis stenocarpa Hochst. Ex. A. Rich. Harms)
Mitotic, meiotic and pollen studies were carried out on selected accessions of African yam bean (AYB). Presented results confirmed diploid status of the species. Somatic chromosome counts of 2n= 22 (n=11) were made in most of the accessions except TSs3 in which counts of 2n= 18 were made in some cells. The somatic chromosomes were very small, mostly metacentric and submetacentric with...
