NEW OR RARE CHROMOSOME COUNTS IN TEN SPECIES OF COUSINIA FROM IRAN-II
author
Abstract:
In the present study, choromosome numbers of 10 species of the genus Cousinia including: C. bienerti (n=13), C. decipiens (n=13), C. deserti (n=12), C. esfandiari (n=13), C. komarowii (n=13), C. lepida (n=13), C. neurocentra (n=12), C. piptocephala (n=13), C. smirnowii (n=12)and C. turcomanica (n=13) are reported from Iran. Specimens have been collected from Semnan and Khorasan Provinces. Nine of the counts are new to science and one provides confirmation of the previous report. The chromosome numbers for three sections are reported for the first time.

In this study, we investigated the chromosome numbers of some endemic species distributed in East and South-East Iran. The mitotic chromosome counts were presented for the first time for six species in three angiosperm families including: Linaria iranica (2n=12), Nanorrhinum campyloceras (2n=18), Chaenorhinum grossecostatum (2n=24) (Plantaginaceae), Gaillonia bruguieri (Rubiaceae) (2n=22), Nepe...
full textCOUSINIA PAPILLOSA, A NEW SPECIES FROM EASTERN IRAN, INCLUDING CHROMOSOME COUNT AND PALYNOLOGICAL STUDIES
Cousinia papillosa (Asteraceae) from eastern Iran is described and illustrated as a new species. Differences between the new species and its closest relative, C. meshhedensis, are discussed. A map showing the distribution of the two species is given. The scanning electron micrography of the pollen grains shows obvious differences between the two species especially in the sculpturing of exine. T...

Two new species of Cousinia are described from Iran. Cousinia bornmulleriana from the west that can be placed in sect. Haussknechtii based on some key characters such as flower numbers, phyllary numbers and the inflorescence form traits. This species can be also compared with its closest relative C. haussknechtii. and C. karkasensis. The second new species, C. semnanensis, from North East of Ir...
