1) The chromosome numbers and morphologies were studied in the species of Lolium, one species of Arrhenatherum and one species of Sorghum.
2) The karyotype formulae were as follows:
Lolium perenne K(2n)=14=2Am1+2csAsm2+2Bm1+2csBsm2+2Csm1+2Cst2+1Cst3
L. multiflorum K2(n)=14=2Asm1+2csAsm2+2Bm1+2Bsm2++2csBsm3+2Csm1+2Cst1
L. temulentumK(2n)=14=2Am1+2Asm2+2Ast3+2Am4+2Bsm1+2Bst2+2Cm1
Arrhenatherum elatius K(2n)=28=4Asm1+2Am2+2csAsm3+2Am4+2tBsm1+
