Various types of meiotic anomalies in Mi generation such as multivalents, fragments, bridges, mioronuclei, polyads and in particular the multispindle formation, were observed after seed X-ray irradiation inCapsicum annuum L. As the dose increased there was a gradual increase in the number of aberrations.
