(Fabaceae), an endemic species critically endangered of the Maule Region, Chile JF - Gayana Botanica JA - Gayana Bot. VL - 73 IS - 1 SE - SHORT COMMUNICATIONS DO - UR - https://gayanabotanica.cl/index.php/gb/article/view/339 SP - 152-155 AB - <p>In this note the vegetative reproduction and chromosome number of&nbsp;<em>Adesmia bijuga</em>&nbsp;Phil., an endemic shrub of Central Chile, that is classified as a critically endangered species, is investigated. Our results indicate a positive response of&nbsp;<em>A. bijuga</em>&nbsp;to the shoot rooting by means of promoting hormones. The chromosome number of&nbsp;<em>A. bijuga</em>&nbsp;is 2<em>n</em>&nbsp;= 20. Most of the chromosomes are metacentrics and of small size.</p> ER -
