In the mitotic chromosome counts showed that V. scamandri had 2n = 32 chromosome number. Flow cytometric analysis revealed that 14-week-old in vitro grown plants have 0.73 pg/2C ± 0.01, callus tissue has 0.76 pg/2C ± 0.02 and propagated plantlets have 0.79 pg/2C ± 0.01. The results proved that propagated plants had similar DNA content to the seed-derived plants which showed analysed plants were genetically stable.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessGenetik ve KalıtımMineralojiBitki BilimleriDETERMINATION OF NUCLEAR DNA CONTENT AND CHROMOSOME NUMBER OF VERBASCUM SCAMANDRI MURB.
