Q. Which of the following species has the chromosome complement similar to that of Triticum aestivuml

AIIMSAIIMS 2009Molecular Basis of Inheritance

Solution:

The chromosome complement of Triticum aestivum (2n = 26) is similar to that of Gossypium whose ploidy level is also 2n = 26. Zea mays has ploidy level of 2n = 20. Secale and Aegilops both have the similar ploidy level of 2n = 14.
