    Speciation can occur through aneuploidy, which is when a species gains or loses one or more chromosomes. In the genus Crepis, different species have varying chromosome numbers ranging from 3 to 7 that were generated through aneuploidy. Another genus, Carex, shows an even more extensive aneuploid series where chromosome numbers range from 6 to 56 among species.

    (c) Speciation: Aneuploidy can generate variation and

    source of speciation in vegetatively propagating species.


    In Crepis, aneuploid variations form a series X = 3, 4, 5, 6
    and 7 among species. A very extensive aneuploid series
    has been observed in Carex (n = 6 to 56).
