Abstract

Two plants which were sectorial chimeras in the two tested characters,i.e. in the length of stomata and their frequency, were found among the 17 individuals regenerated from the stem pith of the same marrow stem kale plant. The chimeral character was also expressed in the size and variability of pollen grains and in the number of colpae in their exine. The different ploidy of sectors (2n, 4n) was confirmed cytologically.
