- Observation Somatic pairing of chromatin strands was observed in young ovules.
- Observation One cell showed distinct pairing and striking similarity between chromatin threads, interpreted as possible reduced meiosis.
- Observation One chromosome had three constrictions, one had two, and four had one.
- Observation One chromosome was dicentric, four approximately isomeral, five heteromeral, and two had terminal centromeres.
