The Index to Plant Chromosome Numbers is a compilation of all the original plant chromosome numbers reported in the scientific literature throughout the world, covering algae, fungi, bryophytes, ferns, and seed plants. Indexes are compiled annually but are usually published in volumes covering at least two years at a time. The chromosome number is an important attribute of a plant species, and the literature reporting these data provides important information for plant breeders, geneticists, and scientists who study the classification and evolution of plants. The Index to Plant Chromosome Numbers is the only worldwide index of this type and is thus the primary information source for chromosome data about plants for the world's scientific community. Indexes also function as a general bibliography for current studies in plant systematics. The scientific literature is reviewed voluntarily by the approximately 25 contributing editors for the project, who are spread throughout the world and are assigned responsibility for particular scientific publications. The data are forwarded to the editors Dr. Peter Goldblatt and Dr. Dale Johnson of the Missouri Botanical Garden, who coordinate the reviewing activities of the contributors and supervise the preparation of the published indexes. The chromosome information is sorted by computer alphabetically by plant family, genus, and species name, in which form it is published. All entries are cross-indexed to the original publication. Information from the Index will be available on-line via computer from Missouri Botanical Garden's TROPICOS system starting in 1989.

植物染色体数目索引是世界各地科学文献中报道的所有原始植物染色体数目的汇编，涵盖藻类、真菌、苔藓植物、蕨类植物和种子植物。指数每年编制一次，但通常一次出版至少两年的成册。染色体数目是植物物种的重要属性，报道这些数据的文献为植物育种者、遗传学家和研究植物分类和进化的科学家提供了重要信息。植物染色体数目索引是这类唯一的世界性索引，因此也是世界科学界有关植物染色体数据的主要信息源。索引也是当前植物系统学研究的一般参考书目。科学文献由该项目的大约25名撰稿人自愿审查，他们分布在世界各地，负责特定的科学出版物。这些数据被转发给密苏里州植物园的编辑彼得·戈德布拉特博士和戴尔·约翰逊博士，他们协调撰稿人的审查活动，并监督出版索引的准备工作。染色体信息由计算机按照植物科、属和物种名称的字母顺序进行排序，并以何种形式发布。所有条目都与原始出版物交叉索引。从1989年开始，密苏里州植物园的TROPICOS系统将通过计算机在线获取该指数的信息。
