Abstract:

The systematic identity of Senecio madagascariensis is ratified against the opinion that it is conspecific with Senecio inaequidens. Both species are native to South Africa and have been merged in the 'Senecio inaequidens complex', a group of entities difficult to distinguish from each other. Senecio madagascariensis is widespread in South America and Australia, where it is an invasive weed. Mitotic and meiotic studies were conducted on Argentinian material; chromosome counts solved the chromosome number controversy, validating 2n = 20. The karyotype was symmetrical, composed of ten pairs of metacentric chromosomes varying from 1.62 to 2.38 μm in length. The most frequent number of satellited chromosomes was three, but their position was difficult to assign. Meiosis was regular, with a configuration of ten predominantly open bivalents. Univalents and quadrivalents were rarely observed. High frequencies of secondary associations of bivalents, chromosome asynchrony and bivalent grouping were documented, reinforcing the hypothesis that x = 5 is the basic chromosome number. Pollen stainability ranged from 94 to 99%. The relevance of chromosomal studies in the circumscription of S. madagascariensis is discussed. Hybridization and polyploidy, as principal evolutionary forces in this genus, explain the systematic difficulties. © 2008 The Linnean Society of London.
