Spontaneous reciprocal translocations in cultivated form of Emmer wheat.

Abstract
Twenty-one F1 hybrids among fourteen varieties or cultivars of cultivated form of Emmer wheat were studied with respect to chromosome pairing at MI of PMC''s, and four chromosome types were determined according to the reciprocal translocations detected. In relation to LD 222 type that was recognized as a standard, Ethiopicum type had a reciprocal translocation between 2A and 4A, and two translocations among three chromosomes, i.e 4A-2A:2A-2B, were carried by Abyssinicum type. Liguliforme type had two different translocations, the one being between 7A and 5B, but the other unidentified.
