The following points highlight the three main types of allopolyploidy. The types are: 1. Segmental Allopolyploidy 2. Genome Allopolyploidy 3. Auto-Allopolyploidy. Type # 1. Segmental Allopolyploidy: Some degree of homology (partial homology) may exist between some chromosome of one genome and those of the other genome. Therefore, in such polyploids both bivalents and multivalents are […]

In this article we will discuss about:- 1. Origin and Occurrence of Autotetraploids 2. Chromosome Pairing and Chiasma Formation in Autotetraploids 3. Fertility 4. Genetics. Origin and Occurrence of Autotetraploids: Autotetraploids originate both spontaneously and can be experimentally induced; the various means of their origin are briefly described below: A. Spontaneous origin: (1) In diploid […]
