Morus notabilis |
Morus notabilis is a species of mulberry found in Yunnan and Sichuan provinces of China, at around 1,300 to 2,800 metres (4,300 to 9,200 feet) in elevation.[citation needed] It was first formally named by Camillo Karl Schneider in 1916.[1][2]
It has 2n = 14 chromosomes, suggesting that it is basal to all the other species in its genus.[3] Chromosome number ranges among species in the genus; for comparison, there are 28 in M. indica and 308 in M. nigra.[4]
