Ploidy of Andean Root and Tuber Crops

1994.2018

The ploidy level and number of chromosomes of 1266 accessions from the Andean roots and tuber collection (arracacha 36, achira 29, ahipa 31, maca 15, oca 810, ulluco 326 and yacon 19) were estimated using a flow cytometry and/or chromosome count of stained meristematic cells of root tips under an optical microscope.

The International Potato Center (CIP) germplasm collection of Andean Roots and Tubers Species conserves 2526 accessions that belong to nine different crops: Oca (Oxalis tuberosa), Ulluco (Ullucus tuberosus), Mashua (Tropaeolum tuberosum), Achira (Canna indica) Yacon (Smallanthus sonchifolius), Arracacha (Arracacia xanthorrhiza), Maca (Lepidium meyenii), Ahipa (Pachyrhizus spp.), and Mauka (Mirabilis expansa), including cultivated and wild germplasm of each crop. The chromosomes basic number is different in each species (x=8 maca, x=12 ulluco, x=11 ahipa, x=8 oca, x=9 achira, x=11 arracacha), being able to exist in some species more than one level of ploidy (diploids and triploids in achira, diploids, triploids and tetraploids in ulluco) and even allopolyploidy (octoploids and dodecaploids in yacon).
