(Rhododendron pruniflorum X Rhododendron arborescens) X Rhododendron calendulaceum 'Smoky Mountaineer', which is a John and Sally Perkins hybrid, has been determined to be a triploid using flow cytometry by
Dr. João Loureiro, Dr. Silvia Castro, and Mariana Castro
Plant Ecology and Evolution Group,
Centre for Functional Ecology,
Department of Life Sciences,
Faculty of Science and Technology,
University of Coimbra, Portugal.
Rhododendron pruniflorum and Rhododendron arborescens are diploid species. Rhododendron calendulaceum is a tetraploid species.
In this case of this triploid (39 chromosomes), a diploid crossed with a tetraploid produced a triploid indicating normal meiosis occurred where the diploid contributed a 1x gamete (13 chromosomes) and the tetraploid contributed a 2x gamete (26 chromosomes).
