Dahlias are octaploids (eight pairs of like chromosomes (just like the Acipenser genus of sturgeon, interestingly-enough)), each chromosome housing many transposons (segments of DNA which can move around in a chromosome).

Amazing creatures.

Mom Nature has a definite Gift ;)

Thank you for sharing.

Thanks. There is a fantastic dahlia garden at Volunteer Park here in Seattle, absolutely beautiful.
