Morphological and karyotypic variability of selected genotypes of Aegilops speltoides and Ae. sharonensis. Spikes of different genotypes are presented. Ae. speltoides ssp. aucheri Ts-84 and genotype 1: only terminal spikelet awned. Ae. speltoides ssp. ligustica Ts-24 and genotypes 4-1, 4-2, Ae. sharonensis: terminal spikelet and lemmas of lateral spikelets awned. Presence or absence of keel tooth on the glume is shown, respectively, by red and blue arrows in the enlargement fragments of the spikes (Ae. speltoides ssp. aucheri Ts-84 and genotype 4-1 do not have the tooth on the glume, red arrows). Simultaneous in situ hybridization of 5S (detected red) and 45S rDNA (detected green) on the somatic chromosomes. Only chromosomes 1, 5, and 6 with signals are shown. Polymorphism in the morphological characters and chromosomal rDNA patterns are observed in plants of Ae. speltoides and Ae. sharonensis from the Kishon.
