Genetic aberration wherein the plant has twice as many chromosome sets as normal, often resulting in very vigorous, large plants and flowers.
A plant that has twice the number of chromosomes, resulting in larger, thicker flowers. Often, there will be more blooms.
a cell or organism with 4 sets of chromosomes.
An organism with four basic (n) sets of chromosomes.
( Genet.). Having four chromosome sets; the individual so constituted. ( BCFT).
Having chromosomes in two homologous pairs.
Having four times (4n) the basic number of chromosomes or twice the diploid number (2n).
having four sets of chromosomes instead of the usual two
having four times the number of chromosomes characteristic of somatic cells.
Having four sets of chromosomes, two from each parent. This is very unusual.
Having twice the normal number of chromosomes.
("4/fold"): having four haploid sets of chromosomes in the nucleus
having four of the basis sets of chromosomes in a nucleus.
An organism whose cells contain four haploid (4) sets of chromosomes.
A plant with four sets of chromosomes per cell. See Tetraploids
A cell having four chromosome sets; an organism composed of such cells.
A plant with four sets of chromosomes. A normal plant is diploid with two sets of chromosomes. Most modern complex orchids hybrids are tetraploid. Compared to diploids, tetraploids general have larger, fuller and heavier substanced flowers.
Having four pairs of chromosomes. The extra pair usually allows for larger, sharper thorns and for the plant to host more than one disease at once. See Diploid above.
having two times the normal amount of DNA or chromosomal material
