TI  - Cytogenetic studies on some Scorzonera L. s.l. (Asteraceae) taxa from Turkey
AB  - In the present study, chromosome morphology of 32 Scorzonera L. taxa, including 19 species endemic to Turkey, wasanalyzed. Te plant materials were collected from diferent natural populations of Turkey between 2005 and 2011. Te classificationof chromosomes, the length of the long and short arm, haploid chromosome length, arm ratio, and relative chromosomal length weremeasured by sofware image analyses. Te basic chromosome numbers were determined as x = 6 and x = 7. Two types of ploidy levelswere observed as diploidy and tetraploidy. Karyotype asymmetry indices, TF%, As K%, Syi, Rec, A, A1, and A2 were also calculated.Scorzonera ahmet-duranii S.Makbul & Coskuncelebi, S. laciniata subsp. calcitrapifolia (Vahl) Marie, and Scorzonera suberosa C.Kochsubsp . cariensis (Boiss.) Chamberlain had the most symmetrical karyotypes for the subgenera Scorzonera L., Podospermum (L.) DC.,and Pseudopodospermum (Lipsch. & Krasch.) Lipsch., respectively.
