Abstract

The paper reports somatic chromosome numbers for two native Iranian species: Frankenia hirsuta (2n=10) of Frankeniaceae family, Chenopodium foliusum (2n=18) of Chenopodiaceae family. Their chromosome numbers are reported as the first counts on Iranian populations. Ideograms were depicted for each species.
