| Résumé : |
"The Old World grass genus, Crypsis, is represented in the United States by three naturalized taxa. Although these are usually treated as specifically distinct in America, European botanists consider two of them to be merely different growth forms of the same species. The few chromosome counts in the literature suggest x = 9 as the basic number. Our studies, including chromosome counts from 44 populations and seed protein analyses from 32 populations, demonstrate that the three taxa differ chemically and represent a polyploid series with a diploid, a tetraploid, and a hexaploid, and a basic chromosome number of x = 8. Each entity seems specifically distinct, and can be recognized by small, but consistent morphological characteristics. Evidence is presented indicating that the correct name for the species listed as C. niliaca in Hitchcock's Manual is Crypsis vaginiflora (Forsk.) Opiz." |
