Abstract

Abstract The percentages of DNA complementary to ribosomal RNA in five species of the Liliaceae family was determined by rRNA/DNA hybridization experiments. The rDNA percentages are appreciably lower in Scilla campanulata (0.050%), Scilla sibirica (0.060%) and Bellevalia webbiana (0.076%), species with higher DNA per 2C nucleus content, than in Allium schoenoprasum (0.106%) and Leopoldia comosa (0.148%), species with lower DNA per 2C nucleus content. A comparison is made with other results on the same subject.
