Of conservation concern. Draba monoensis appears to be polyploid (M. D. Windham, unpubl.), and its morphological similarity to D. fladnizensis (R. C. Rollins 1993) may indicate that the latter is one of its progenitors. The species is known from the White Mountains of Mono County. (Discussion copyrighted by Flora of North America; reprinted with permission.) |
Different chromosome counts for Draba stenopetala were reported as 2n = 24 from North America and 2n = 64 from the Russian Far East (S. I. Warwick and I. A. Al-Shehbaz 2006). It is unlikely that a single species is involved, and further work is needed to verify the counts from North America. (Discussion copyrighted by Flora of North America; reprinted with permission.) |
