Taxonomic Relationships of Ten Fritillaria Species of Subgenera Fritillaria and Theresia Based on Analysis of Flower Qualitative and Quantitative Morphological Characters
Flower morphology of 10 Fritillaria species of subgenera Theresia and Fritillaria growing wild in Iran is studied using seventy morphological characters. Qualitative and quantitative datasets separated taxa into subgenera, sectional and groups. Three enigmatic species F. caucasica, F. zagrica (endemic to Zagros Mountains) and F. pinardii (recently reported from Zagros Mountains) appeared as clo...
متن کاملA taxonomic study of cyanobacteria in wheat fields adjacent to industrial areas in Yazd province (Iran)
Culturing, isolation, purification, and identification of cyanobacteria collected from wheat field soil, in five stations around the industrial areas in Yazd province (Iran) were conducted in this study. Identification of taxa was based on morphology and molecular methods. Cluster analysis and principal component analyses performed using SPSS software and rate of resemblance among the taxa were...
متن کاملPalynological study of the genus Gypsophila in Iran
Gypsophila with approximately 150 speciesrepresents the fourth largest genus of Caryophyllaceae and the second genus of tribe Caryophylleae. Iran is the second main center of Gypsophila diversity with 38 species in the world. Considering Gypsophila as one of the most polymorphic genus of the family andalmost half of its taxa distributed in Iran as endemic, thus makes it as a significant genus f...
متن کاملNUMERICAL TAXONOMIC STUDY OF THE IRANIAN SPECIES OF ALYSSUM L. BASED ON MORPHOLOGICAL CHARACTERS
The genus Alyssum L. belongs to the subtribe Alyssinae, tribe Alysseae and family Cruciferae (Brassicaceae). This genus is one of the largest genera of the family of Cruciferae in Iran, and seems to be the most problematic genus in which the boundary of certain species is not completely clear due to the polymorphism of morphological characters. The main objective of this research is to stud...
متن کاملMicromorphological study on the seeds of wild species of Pyrus (Rosaceae) in Iran and their taxonomic implication
The seed micromorphological characters of 15 taxa of Iranian Pyrus comprising 22 individuals were examined by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Digital Microscopy (DM) for the first time in this survey. For the assessment of probable ecological effects, several individuals of some widespread species were studied. After collecting several samples of each wild taxa of Pyrus from different lo...
