Abstract: Petrocodon Hance (Gesneriaceae) consists of 41 species and is mainly distributed in the limestone region of
South China. So farꎬ the chromosome numbers of only four species have been reportedꎬ with the rest species in the genus
remained uninvestigated yet. Furthermoreꎬ the evolutionary history of the chromosome number and ploidy in Petrocodon
as well as in its sister genus Primulina remain unexploredꎬ and particularly whether it affected their diversifications into
extant species diversity remain unknown. In this studyꎬ the root tip cells of four species (including one variety) of
Petrocodon (i.e. Petrocodon dealbatus var. dealbatusꎬ Petrocodon dealbatus var. denticulatusꎬ Petrocodon longangensis
and Petrocodon sp.) which were generated by hydroponic culture method for the cutting leavesꎬ were used for the
chromosome experiments. Firstꎬ the effects of various experimental treating conditions on the quality of chromosome
squashing were explored and the chromosome numbers were counted. Thenꎬ the evolutionary history of chromosome
numbers in Petrocodon and Primulina were traced based on the molecular phylogenetic treeꎬ and whether the
diversifications of the species diversity for the two genera were impacted by changes of the chromosome number or
especially the ploidy or not was discussed. The results were as follows: ( 1) The root tip of 1 - 1. 5 cm lengthꎬ
 ̄1
pretreatment for 5 h with 0. 002 mol L 8 ̄hydroxyquinoline solution and dissociation for 4 min was a suitable
chromosome preparation condition. (2) All the four species (including one variety) investigated were diploid and the
chromosome numbers were the same (2n = 2x = 36). (3) Although the reconstruction of the ancestral state of the
chromosome number of Petrocodon and Primulina failed to give any resolution for the most recent common ancestors of
the two genera ( generic stem node) and each of the genera ( generic crown nodes)ꎬ the chromosome number of
Petrocodon and Primulina was highly conserved with most taxa possessing 2n = 2x = 36ꎬ except for the ploidy or
chromosome number changes in few speciesꎬ suggesting the disproportional diversification of species diversity between
Petrocodon and Primulina was not correlated to the change of the chromosome number or ploidy. This study provides a
reference for the chromosome preparation of Petrocodon and its alliesꎬ and also provides basic data and implications for
further research on the classificationꎬ systematic evolution and speciation of Petrocodon.
Key words: Petrocodonꎬ chromosome numbersꎬ genome ploidyꎬ species diversification
