Haploidy in Nicotiana spp

  • Chapter
In Vitro Haploid Production in Higher Plants

Part of the book series: Current Plant Science and Biotechnology in Agriculture ((PSBA,volume 29))

Abstract

The genus Nicotiana belongs to the tribe of Nicotianeae, of the family Solanaceae. It was classified by Goodspeed (1954) into three subgenera (Rustica, Tabacum and Petunioides), 14 sections and 60 species. Forty-five are indigenous to North and South America and 15, the Suaveolentes section of the subgenus Petunioides, to Australia. Five new species (N. umbratica, N. cavicola, N. amplexicaulis, N. hesperis and N. simulans) were added to the Australian group by Burbidge (1960) who also changed the name of N. stenocarpa to N. rosulata. In the same year, Wells (1960), after finding a continuous intergradation of N. palmeri with N. trigonophylla, removed the validity of species rank to N. palmeri. A complete list of the 64 species was reported by Smith (1979). Subsequently, two other species with uncertain taxonomic position were described. The first, N. africana (Merxmüller & Buttler, 1975), was found on the mountains in the middle of Namib (Southwest Africa) and although some characteristics were reminiscent of the subgenera Rustica and Tabacum, it was placed in the subgenus Petunioides. The authors state that: “N. africana can be considered as an endemic relict of considerable age. It may form a parallel to the Suaveolentes section (endemic to Australia and the South Pacific) with which it agrees in being diploid (2n = 2x = 46)”. So far, N. africana is the only Nicotiana known from Africa. The second new species, N. kawakamii (Ohaski, 1976) was found in the Andes of South America and although some cytological features are unique to this species and it is day neutral, it seems to fit in the Tomentosae section of the subgenus Tabacum (Smith, 1979).
