Hello viola peoples!

I'm a new graduate student at The Oho State University in Columbus (Ohio, USA) and am developing a topic for my research thesis. Ornimental plant breeding is my line of work, and I'm quite proficient in dabbing hemerocallis (my true love), hosta, and am expanding my tastes :)

Anyway, I am interested in examining DNA fingerprints of (Ohio) naive species, in order to try and connect them to common ancestors. I am having a heck of a time finding in formation on chromosome counts of all the species I have (not all natives):

bicolor

blanda

canadensis

cornuta 'Black Magic'

cucullata

dissecta

gracilis

hastata

hederacea

hirsutala

labradorica

labradorica 'alba'

laceolata

macloskeyi

o. 'Rosinia'

palmata

palustris

papillonacea

pedata

pinnata

pubescens

rostrata

rotundifolia

'Royal Robe'

sagittata

sororia

sororia 'freckles'

striata

triloba

Any chance anyone here can help me out -either digits or maybe a reference or referral? I have checked some peer-reviewed literature, and most recently the "Chromosome Atlas of Flowering Plants" by Darlington and Wylie.

Thanks,

Dan
