Hybrid characteristics in Spartina X neyrautii Fouc., a taxon rediscovered in northern Spain
1977
MARCHANT, C.J.
As a result of a renewed search in the historical locality of Spartina x neyrautii this taxon was rediscovered on the Atlantic seaboard of northern Spain in 1970. Cytological study has subsequently demonstrated its hybrid nature, the same chromosome number as S. x townsendii and probable similar parentage. However, it is significantly different in chromosome analysis and chiasma frequency. This, along with minor morphological deviations, suggests a different genotype and denotes it as a separate taxon, possibly of reciprocal parentage.
