This paper concerns the cytogenetic investigation of the Croatian endem­ ic species Fibigia triquetra (DC.) Boiss. (Brassicaceae). The number of chro­ mosomes in all investigated cells from three populations of Fibigia triquetra was 2n=2x=!6. Chromosomes were small and ranged from submetacentrics to acrocentrics. One chromosome pair had a relatively small satellite. Although meiosis was not com...

As part of our ongoing investigation of the stenoendemic plants belonging to the Brassicaceae family, we report on the chemistry of Fibigia triquetra (DC.) Boiss. ex Prantl for the first time. Different plant parts (flower, leaf, stem, and seed) of F. triquetra were characterized and quantified for glucosinolates (GLs) according to the ISO 9167-1 EU official method based on the HPLC analysis of...

Water defi cit in the soil leads to osmotic stress in plants. The type of stress affects plant water relations, osmolyte accumulation and oxidative stress balance. The present study aimed to investigate the effects of osmotic stress on the Croatian perennial species Fibigia triquetra (DC.) Boiss, adapted to a hot and dry habitat. Plants grown in culture conditions were subjected to isoosmotic c...
