Abstract

The cells of some pea, tobacco and haplopappus callus strains reveal considerable variability in nuclear morphology (polymorphous nuclei, differences in nucleolar size and number, enlarged chromocentres) and chromosome counts. The specific features in the nuclear morphology of callus cells are related with some pecularities in the reproduction activity of these cells (amplification, amitosis, fragmentation, various deviations from normal mitosis) under cultural conditions including both the definite action of the culture system and the absence of the regulatory control by the intact organism.
