Table 1.

Chromosome number and genome size in Sobralieae. The list of Brasolia, Elleanthus, and Sobralia species analyzed here and published on the literature is presented. For each species, the determined chromosome number is presented followed by its figure in text or reference on the literature. For each species analyzed here, the number of analyzed specimens in FCM is indicated in brackets. The genome size is presented in pg, followed by its standard deviation (SD), and Mega base-pairs (Mbp). The genome size (the 1C-value) is given in pg ± SD (Standard Deviation) and Mbp (Mega base-pairs). For each 1C-value, the sample Coefficient of Variation (CV) is presented and the genome size is classified according Soltis et al. [16].
