Abstract

This study includes 4 reports of chromosome counts in Tripleurospermum Sch. Bip. belonging to the tribe Anthemideae of the family Asteraceae from Iran. Confirming the reported base number of x=9 for this genus, the species studied include diploid and tetraploid species. Chromosome counts for three species are reported for the first time from Iran.

Abstract [Persian]

در این بررسی تعداد کروموزوم های چهار گونه از جنس Tripleurospermum Sch. Bip متعلق به طایفه Anthemideae  از تیره Asteraceae از ایران گزارش می شود. با توجه به عدد کروموزومی پایه x=9 گزارش شده برای این جنس، نمونه های مورد بررسی شامل گونه‌های دیپلویید و تترا پلویید بود. عدد کروموزومی سه گونه برای اولین بار از ایران گزارش می شود.
