Apomixis is a specific way of asexual plant reproduction by seeds. Conversion from sexual reproduction to apomixis is enabled by many different factors. These include molecular changes in DNA, changes on chromosomes, or affinity to certain taxonomical lineages. Even ecological conditions, as stressful high altitude or latitude environment, are thought to be factors capable of turning sexuality into apomixis. To test this hypothesis, we collected seeds of angiosperms from Indian part of Himalayas, in Ladakh. The seeds were analysed by FCSS where ratio of genome sizes of endosperm / embryo revealed type of reproduction system. Our data indicated 9 apomictic species from 232 totally measured species. These were Biebersteinia odora, Potentilla ...
