Table 3.
Cytogenomic results obtained for 16 taxa. Average 2C-values in picograms with standard deviation (SD), group (the same letter(s) indicates species within the genus that are not significantly different), sample coefficient of variation as a percentage (CV), previous 2C-value estimates in pictograms based on a previous study [49], and the origin of the collected specimens (Az, Azores; CV, Cabo Verde; Lu, mainland Portugal; Ma, Madeira). The number of chromosomes retrieved from the literature [see references in Section 4.3. Data Collection] is also given.
