Abstract

The paper describes morphology and meiotic behaviour of a peculiar looking almond, locally called Kharbadam. It shows some differences with almond and at the same time resembles peach in some of its features. A detailed comparison of its morphology and cytology with almond and peach suggests it to be a spontaneous hybrid between the two fruit species. The role of such hybrids in breeding is discussed.
