Abstract
In the present paper earlier findings on the interference of colchicine with presynaptic alignment and synaptonemal complex formation in Allium ursinum are corroborated and several other direct or indirect consequences of colchicine treatment, like deformations and decomposition of lateral elements and a high incidence of non-homologous associations are reported. Mechanisms of meiotic alignment and pairing are discussed with respect to their susceptibility to the known cytological and biochemical activities of colchicine.
