Summary
The C-banding pattern of nine meiotic chromosomes of common wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) as described. In F1s of crosses between monosomics of ‘Chinese Spring’ and two Spanish wheat cultivars, univalent chromosomes were used to aid the recognition and analysis of the C-banding pattern for the individual chromosomes. The identification of one chromosome involved in one translocation in ‘Chinese Spring’ x ‘Pané 247’ has been made through heterochromatin bands observed in the chromosomes involved in multivalents.
