Abstract

Curuculigo capitulata is a perennial species from tropical Asia. The rhizomes have medicinal value and several chemical compounds were isolated from rhizomes. Only a few cytogenetic studies have been developed on this species. The presente study reports the formation of reduced gametes in plants of two Brasilian populations and confirms the chromosome number previously reported.
