Numerical taxonomic studies on some Centaurea L. species grown in Elazıg/Turkey

Abstract

Morphological investigations the taxa which includes C. carduiformis DC. subsp. carduiformis var. carduiformis, C. kotschyi Boiss. & Heldr. Hayek var. kotschyi, C. drabifolia Sibth. & Sm. subsp. drabifolia, C. cynarocephala Wagenitz, C. balsamita Lam., C. kurdica Reichardt., C. behen L., C. derderifolia Wagenitz, C. virgata Lam., C. polypodifolia Boiss. var. polypodifolia, C. polypodifolia Boiss. var. pseudobehen Wagenitz, C. saligna C. Koch , C. iberica Trev., C. aggregata Fisch. & Mey. ex DC. subsp. aggregata, C. urvillei DC. subsp. urvillei, C. urvillei DC. subsp. armata Wagenitz, C. urvillei DC. subsp. hayekiana Wagenitz, C. solstitialis L. subsp. solstitialis belong Centaurea L. were made and these morphological characters were used in numerical analysis of these taxa. The nearest and furthest taxa from each other were determined and these findings were compared with cladistic taxonomic results. Numerical taxonomic results are similar with Flora of Turkey. Additionaly, the most effective characters which were used to separate the taxa were determined and compared with the characters used in Flora of Turkey

Elazığ Bölgesinde yetişen bazı Centaurea L. türleri üzerinde nümerik taksonomik çalışmalar

Abstract

Centaurea L. cinsine dahil Elazığ civarında yetişen C. carduiformis DC. subsp. carduiformis var. carduiformis, C. kotschyi Boiss. & Heldr. Hayek var. kotschyi, C. drabifolia Sibth. & Sm. subsp. drabifolia, C. cynarocephala Wagenitz, C. balsamita Lam., C. kurdica Reichardt., C. behen L., C. derderifolia Wagenitz, C. virgata Lam., C. polypodifolia Boiss. var. polypodifolia, C. polypodifolia Boiss. var. pseudobehen Wagenitz, C. saligna C. Koch , C. iberica Trev., C. aggregata Fisch. & Mey. ex DC. subsp. aggregata, C. urvillei DC. subsp. urvillei, C. urvillei DC. subsp. armata Wagenitz, C. urvillei DC. subsp. hayekiana Wagenitz, C. solstitialis L. subsp. solstitialis taksonları üzerinde morfolojik incelemeler yapılmış ve bu incelemelerde elde edilen morfolojik karakterler bu taksonların nümerik analizinde kullanılmıştır. Birbirine en yakın ve en uzak taksonlar belirlenmiş, bu bulgular klasik taksonomi sonuçları ile karşılaştırılmıştır. Nümerik taksonomik sonuçlar Türkiye Florası ile aynıdır. Ayrıca taksonların ayrılmasında en etkili olan karakterler belirlenerek Türkiye Florası’nda kullanılan karakterlerle karşılaştırılmıştır
