Cytological analysis of different carrot cell lines in culture has shown various cytogenetic anomalies generating new levels of ploidy and novel chromosome numbers. Polyploidy may be considered a reservoir of variability that can be released in the form of distinct new segregants of different ploidy. Mechanisms alternative to mitosis (reductional grouping, prophase chromosome reduction) operate from a polyploid state (possibly reached by means of endopolyploidy, endomitosis, nuclear fusion, or restitution nuclei) to generate new levels of ploidy and novel chromosome numbers necessary for selection to operatein vitro. The segregational phenomena require chromosome recognition in haploid set complements and abnormal behaviour of mitoses; the resulting chromosome variability suggests that chromosomes are arranged, in the resting nuclei, in an orderly and predictable manner.The knowledge of the molecular events governing these mechanisms, and how to control them, would be of great help for future applications of plant cell culture.
