Chromosome Counts for Malvaceae

Malvaceae Info (Home)

The following is a list of chromosome counts for species of Malvaceae that are published on the web. In some cases (not all) following the link to the referenced web site will provide a further reference to the original print source. I have not included web sites whose data is duplicated by that already present. Print sources are used when there is not an online source.
