Key Findings
- The study by Bydgoszcz University of Science and Technology focused on the genetic characterization of Trigonella species
- Flow cytometry revealed that Trigonella species have small genomes, mostly under 2.8 pg/2C, and detected endopolyploid nuclei in 14 species
- Combining flow cytometry with SCoT molecular markers allowed for quick and accurate identification of Trigonella species, aiding in breeding and conservation programs
