Sumario: | <i>Trifolium</i> L. is an economically important genus that is characterized by variable karyotypes relating to its ploidy level and basic chromosome numbers. The advent of genomic resources combined with molecular cytogenetics provides an opportunity to develop our understanding of plant genomes in general. Here, we summarize the current state of knowledge on <i>Trifolium</i> genomes and chromosomes and review methodologies using molecular markers that have contributed to <i>Trifolium</i> research. We discuss possible future applications of cytogenetic methods in research on the <i>Trifolium</i> genome and chromosomes. |
