A total of 53 species (54 sequence accessions) representing 28 species of the tribe Hedysareae, 5 species of Vicioid clade and 19 species of Galegeae including the two Glycyrrhiza species as outgroups was included in a phylogenetic analysis using nrDNA ITS sequences with maximum parsimony method. The analysis, based on successive reweighting by rescaled consistency index, revealed that Vicioid clade is the first branch followed by Chesneya-Caragana clade and Astragalean clade as successive sisters to Hedysaroid clade. The genus Alhagi is well allied, as the basal most taxon, with the remainder of Hedysaroid clade. Ebenus and Taverniera are each monophyletic and weakly allied taxa. Hedysarum is not monophyletic, its species are dispersed across Hedysaroid clade. Sulla a segregate of Hedysarum, forms a well supported monophyletic group with the inclusion of H. humile. The enigmatic genus Eversmannia is allied with Onobrychis clade. Onobrychis itself is not monophyletic due to inclusion of the two Hedysarum species, and Onobrychis subgenus Onobrychis is not monophyletic as well, whereas Onobrychis subgenus Sisyrosema forms a strongly supported clade. In contrast to Onobrychis section Heliobrychis, sections Dendrobrychis and Onobrychis appear not to be each monophyletic. Hedysareae is circumscribed herein to include only Alhagi, Ebenus, Eversmannia, Hedysarum, Onobrychis, Sulla, Taverniera, Coretrodendron and Sartoria.

Astragalus borujenensis Ranjbar & Maassoumi (Fabaceae) is described from Iran and illustrated in line drawings. It belongs in Astragalus sect. Ammodendron and resembles A. podolobus, from which it differs mainly in its stipe, color and type of pod indumentum and pod arrangement. Seed coat surfaces of A. borujenensis and A. podolobus are displayed in SEM photographs. Also A. filifoliolatus is transferred from A. sect. Onobrychoidei to A. sect. Ammodendron.

Artemisia sieberi Besser is distributed in vast steppes of Iran. There are different opinions about the correct name of Iranian steppic Artemisia. Some authors believe that the Iranian specimens are A. sieberi and the others A. herba-alba. Phytochemical studies of 34 populations of the species in Iran, A. herba-alba specimens of Spain and A. sieberi specimen of Palestine confirmed that the name of A. sieberi is correct.

In the present study, 28 species of Bromus L. have been investigated based on micromorphological characters of abaxial surface. The lamina of grass leaf blades is divided into costal and intercostal zones. The results of this study showed that the costal zone includes short and long cells and probably hair and prickle and the intercostals zone includes long cells, stomata and hairs. They are similar and constant in all species. But indumentum types are different in species. Also the characters of indumentum have taxonomical value and can be used in distinguishing of species.

Cross sections of petioles in 24 species of Astragalus Sect. Incani has been studied for a comparison of anatomical characters based on phylogeny in this section. The characters which employed in this study are as follows: Numbers of parenchymatous cell layers in pith, number of bundles, length of ventral axis, length of dorsiventral axis, diameter of ventral latéral vascular bundle (VLB) and diameter of dorsal médian bundle (DMB). Furthermore the evolutionary direction in anatomical characters (character polarity) is studied. The results reveal that anatomical characters are not useful for circumscribing section but are suitable evidences for taxonomical differentiation in species in this section and can be use for delimiting small natural groups. Moreover, they are helpful characters for determining some complexes in this section.

During the bryophyte floristic study of northern Tehran, spore morphology of 15 moss species belonging to families Amblystegiaceae, Brachytheciaceae, Encalyptaceae, Funariaceae, Grimmiaceae, Mniaceae, Orthotrichaceae, and Pottiaceae were examined and photographed by scanning electron microscopy. Spore shape of all the studied species was spheroid. The spore size was ranging from 7.50 (±0.06) × 8.07 (±0.06) μm in Schistidium flaccidum to 35.84 (±3.67) × 37.51 (±4.55) μm in Encalypta intermedia. No sulcus was detected on the exine surface of the examined species. Based on surface ornamentation, the spores were divided into six following types: verrucate, scabrate-gemmate, gemmate, pilate, retipilate and rugulate. The examined mosses species are belonging to two habitat types: saxicolous type and terrestrial type. The taxonomical and ecological implications of the spore morphology of the species were discussed.
