Other claims from this paper (12)
- Observation Arachis Gregoryi has 2n=20 chromosomes and lacks the small A pair.
- Observation Arachis Krapovickasii has 2n=20 chromosomes and lacks the small A pair.
- Observation Arachis linearifolia has 2n=20 chromosomes, including the small A pair.
- Observation Arachis Schininii has 2n=20 chromosomes, including the small A pair.
- Observation Arachis Schininii shows many morphological differences from A. Hoehnei and is considered a new species.
- Observation Arachis submarginata has 2n=20 chromosomes.
- Observation Arachis Pflugeae has 2n=20 chromosomes.
- Observation Arachis Hassleri has 2n=20 chromosomes.
- Observation Arachis seridoensis has 2n=20 chromosomes.
- Observation Arachis interrupta has 2n=20 chromosomes.
- Observation Arachis porphyrocalyx has 2n=18 chromosomes, the first 2n=18 count for an Arachis species outside section Arachis.
- Mechanism The origin of the 2n=18 chromosomes is probably not associated with the origin of the 18 chromosomes in section Arachis species.
