Abstract :Large morpho-anatomical and biochemical variability was evidenced in all Lonicera caerulea L. provenances. The knowledge of chromosome constitution is of basic importance in this context of elevated phenotype heterogeneity and represents a necessary step in breeding programs. The Romanian selections are tetraploid (2n = 4x = 36). Chromosomes are small-sized (Keywords : Key words: Blue honeysuckle, idiogram, karyotype, Lonicera caerulea, symmetry/asymmetry indexes
