Abstract

In this research, the chromosome numbers of six taxa of the genus Marrubium L. Horehound growing naturally in Turkey were counted. Of the taxa of the genus Marrubium Lamiaceae , Marrubium vulgare L. has somatic chromosome number of 2n=34+2B, M. vulcanicum Hub.-Mor. 2n=32, M. bourgaei Boiss. subsp. bourgaei 2n=30, M. bourgaei Boiss. subsp. caricum P.H. Davis and M. astracanicum subsp. astracanicum Jaq. 2n=20, M. peregrinum L. 2n=34. Chromosome numbers of the three taxa examined are presented for the first time
