Karyotype Analysis Of Fennel (Foeniculum vulgare Mill.) From Ankara Province
Öz
Fennel (Foeniculum vulgare Mill.) belongs to Apiaceae family is medicinal and aromatic species with economic importance rich essential oils. In this research; we try to obtain cytological parameters on Fennel. Six chromosomal parameters were measured by Micro Measure 3.3 program; i.e., chromosome length (c), relative length (RL), the long arm (L) and short arm (S) lengths, arm ratio (AR: L/S), centromeric index (S/C). Maximum chromosome length was measured 1.71 μm and max arm ratio was determined 2.79 μm. It’s been observed that the long arm lengths of fennel(Foeniculum vulgare Mill.) are within the range of 0.69-1.06 μm and its short arm lengths are within range of 0.38-0.84 μm. Relative length was ranged between 3.76-5.38%. Maximum centromeric index was measured in1.81 μm. Karyotype formula were obtained 2n=22=18 median + 4 submedian (18 m + 4sm).
