Cytogenetics of Polyploids

  • Chapter
Polyploidy

Part of the book series: Basic Life Sciences ((BLSC,volume 13))

Abstract

Following Winge’s classic paper on Polyploidy (1), there have been a large number of publications dealing with various aspects of the subject. However, this symposium is probably the first to bring together at one place and at one time so many different viewpoints and disciplines dealing with this subject.
