Abstract

Karyological studies of seven populations of Buxus hyrcana Pojark. from different habitats are presented. We found one usual basic chromosome number in this species x=14. All populations were diploid (2n = 2x = 28). The results of kryotypic analysis made it possible to categorize different populations of a species and make a logical comparison among them.

Abstract [Persian]

در مطالعه حاضر بررسی کاریولوژیکی هفت جمعیت مختلف گونه Buxus hyrcana Pojark. که از مناطق مختلف کشور جمع‌آوری شده بودند ارائه شده است. نتایج نشان داد که پایه کروموزومی این گونه 14 x = می‌باشد. تمام جمعیت‌های مورد مطالعه دیپلوئید با 28= x2=n2 می‌باشند. نتایج تجزیه و تحلیل کاریوتیپی امکان دسته‌بندی جمعیت‌های مختلف گونه را از مناطق مختلف رویشگاهی و همچنین مقایسه منطقی بین آنها را فراهم نمود.
