Abstract
Karyotypic analysis of Lens culinaris Medic., s.sp. Macrosperma Laird x Precoz was carried out to dcrermine the chromosomal positions. The diploid chromosome number was 14. The Karyotype characterized its seven pairs of chromosomes into 3 metacentric and 4 sub-metacentric pairs. No chromosome with secondary constriction was observed. The total chromosomal length of the diploid complement was 45.74 µm whereas, the average chromosomal length observed was 3.67 µm. The Karyotypic formula was K (n = 7) = 3 M+4Sm. A Karyogram and an idiogram was prepared for further cytogenetic studies.
