Abstract This study conducted karyotype analysis on 56 Chinese kale varieties from Guangdong and Fujian provinces using conventional chromosome analysis methods. The varieties were categorized into four groups based on their origin and flower color: white-flower Chinese kale originating from Guangdong (GW), yellow-flower Chinese kale originating from Guangdong (GY), white-flower Chinese kale originating from Fujian (FW), and yellow-flower Chinese kale originating from Fujian (FY). Karyotype differences among the four groups of Chinese kale were analyzed, and the evolutionary relationship between yellow-flower and white-flower Chinese kale from the two regions was inferred based on karyotype parameters.
