Crotalaria assadii Zaeifi is described from south of Iran. It is widely distributed along the coastal plains and dunes of Balouchestan and Hormozgan provinces and erroneously previously determined as C. burhia Buch. -Ham. ex Benth. in some herbaria. The new species differs from C. burhia in legume shape, size and indumentum as well as plant indumentum which will be described here.

Shahi Shavvan
In the current survey, pollen, seed and fruit micro-morphological characters of the genus Geum L., comprising 5 species from two subgenera, Orthostylus Fisch & Mey. and Geum were examined using scanning electron microscope (SEM) and light microscope (LM). The pollen grains are monad, radially symmetrical, isopolar, tricolporate, medium in size, elliptical (from equatorial view) and triangular to circular (from polar view) in outline, subprolate to prolate in shape. The exine ornamentation is striate with micro perforation. Seeds coat micro -morphology revealed two types of sculpturing (including sulcat-ribbed and sulcat-foveolate) and fruits morphological analysis showed the importance of joint position and hairs on the style, beak length and hook in this genus. Principal component analysis (PCA) was carried out using a total of 20 characters. The result supports current classifications and emphasizes the importance of micro- macro-morphologocal traits for separating the two subgenera and species of the genus. Based on the important distinguishing characters a key is presented.

Trifolium incarnatum L. is reported for the first time for the flora of Iran. It has been collected from Marivan area in Kurdistan province. This species belongs to the section Trifoilium anddistinguished from T. sylvaticum Gerard ex Loisel by the following characters: Dense, large head (about twice as much as the later one) and red flowers. Also it differs from T. stellatum L. by possessing larger leaflets, oblong heads (about two times longer than the later) and red flowers.

Phyllanthus tenellus Roxb. was lately found as naturalized species in Mazandaran province. This report represents the first record of the species for the flora of Iran. It seems that it is introduced through exotic plants commerce and often distributed in the gardens, especially in the ornamental plants nurseries. Since ornamental plants imports started in a large scale in Iran less than 50 years ago. It is a small and herbaceous plant and is easily recognized by its very small flowers in axillary cymes on the branches and leaves thin and fragile produced on lateral shoots which resembling a compound leaves.

The trichomes of silicules and pedicels in 37 Alyssum species of Iran were studied. The shapes of trichomes vary from star-shape to simple and dendroid. The star-shape is the most common type. Section Alyssum has the most diversity in its trichomes. Some of species have two kinds of trichomes on their silicules. The form of trichome in some species like A. hirsutum and A. heterotrichome separate them from the other species. Therefore, the trichome shapes in Alyssum species can be used as a taxonomic tool to some extent.

LEAF ANATOMICAL PROPERTIES OF SOME RARE AND ENDEMIC IRIS L. TAXA AND THEIR RELATIONS: SUBGENUS HERMODACTYLOIDES IN TURKEY
Nezahat
Kandemir
Leaf anatomical characters of eight Iris L. taxa were compared and their relations were determined. Iris danfordiae, Iris celikii, Iris histrioides, Iris pamphylica and Iris histrio ssp. aintabensis are endemic to Turkey. Iris bakeriana, I. celikii, I. histrioides, I. pamphylica, I. histrio ssp. aintabensis and Iris histrio ssp. histrio have limited distribution in Turkey. The differences were seen especially in the mesophyl layer of the leaves. Mesophyll of I. reticulata and I. histrioides have an unifacial ensiform structure. Whereas mesophyll of the other investigated taxa have a bifacial ensiform structure. Leaf outline structure of all taxa are quadrangular structure (excluding I. bakeriana-terete structure). In mesophyll of leaves, hexagonal crystals (I. histrioides, I. danfordiae, I. bakeriana, I. histrio ssp. histrio, I. histrio ssp. aintabensis and I. pamphylica) and crystalline granules (I. reticulata, I. bakeriana, I. celikii, I. danfordiae, I. histrio ssp. histrio, I. histrio ssp. aintabensis and I. pamphylica) were found. The layer number of spongy and palisade parenchyma also vary among taxa. In the leaf anatomic characters of I. histrio ssp. histrio, I. histrio ssp. aintabensis, significant differences were not obseved. Based on the above leaves anatomical characters, we suggest that (1) I. reticulata and I. histrioides should be independent species with close relationships; (2) ssp. histrio and ssp. aintabensis should be homonym of I. histrio, rather than of its subspecies; (3) I. danfordiaeand I. celikii should be independent species with close relationships; (4) I. pamphylica and I. bakeriana are different species of the subgenus.

Tavassoli
The somatic chromosome numbers and karyotype of five species of Onopordum L. (Asteraceae) from Iran were investigated. Our results confirm that all of the species are diploid (2n=34). First chromosome reports are presented for O. leptolepis DC., O. heteracanthum C. A. Mey. and O. carduchorum Bornm & Beauverd. Besides, the chromosome numbers of O. armenum Grossh., O. carduchorum and O. acanthium L. are reported from Iran for the first time, confirm the previous reports. Karyotype formulae for O. armenum, O. carduchorum and O. leptolepis were similar (1Sm+16m), for O. heteracanthum and O. acanthium were respectively 17m and 1M+16m+2B.Satellites were commonly found on submetacentric pairs, being also variable in morphology and location.

PHYLOGENETIC ANALYSIS AMONG FOUR SECTIONS OF GENUS DENDROBIUM SW. (ORCHIDACEAE) BASED ON LOW COPY NUCLEAR GENE (XDH) SEQUENCES IN PENINSULAR MALAYSIA
Maryam
Moudi
Rusea
Go
The present study focused on the molecular phylogeny of the four sections (Aporum, Crumenata, Strongyle, and Bolbidium) of genus Dendrobium SW. (Orchidaceae) based upon low copy nuclear gene, Xanthine Dehydrogenase (Xdh) sequences using maximum parsimony (MP), maximum likelihood (ML) and Bayesian (BI) methods. Single and low copy nuclear genes have been increasingly used in phylogenetic reconstruction because they contain large amounts of genetic information and are biparentally inherited. Classifications based on morphological characters have not been able to clearly divide these four sections and neither do they support their monophyletic origins. Therefore, detailed analysis using molecular data is required to ascertain their status. This study includes 20 species of genus Dendrobium and 2 species from genus Bulbophyllum (section Sestochilus) as outgroup taxa. According to the results, the aligned sequences consisted of 733 nucleotide characters of which 131characters were parsimony informative. The analysis revealed that the nuclear genes can be reliable marker for the phylogenetic study of genus Dendrobium. The results suggested that the four sections are probably best considered as one section instead of four and based on the International code of Botanical Nomenclature (ICBN) rules can be named as section Aporum for this new classification.
