Abstract

Three plant species belonging to three genera of Apiaceae, Boraginaceae & Poaceae were collected from wetlands in western regions of Iran. The chromosomal count of Leiotulus porphyrodiscus (Stapf & Wettst.) Pimenov & Ostr. (2n = 22) is reported for the first time, and the chromosome count of Arrhenatherum elatius (L.) P. Beauv. ex J. Presl & C. Presl (2n = 28) is reported for the first time for the flora of Iran. The number of chromosomes in Echium italicum L. (2n = 16) is reported from Kermanshah Province. Karyomorphological parameters such as karyotypic formula, Romero-Zarco indices, Stebbins class, and other karyotypic symmetry indices were determined for all species.

Abstract [Persian]

سه گونه گیاهی متعلق به سه تیره Apiaceae, Boraginaceae, Poaceae از مناطق ماندابی غرب کشور جمع‌آوری گردید. شمارش کروموزومی برای گونه Leiotulus porphyrodiscus (Stapf & Wettst.) Pimenov & Ostr. (2n = 22) برای اولین بار و شمارش کروموزومی گونه Arrhenatherum elatius (L.) P. Beauv. ex J. Presl & C. Presl (2n = 28) برای اولین بار در فلور ایران و در گونهEchium italicum L.  نیز 2n = 16 از استان کرمانشاه گزارش می‌گردند. پارامترهای کاریومورفولوژیکی از جمله فرمول کاریوتیپی، شاخص‏های رومروزرکو، کلاس Stebbins و سایر شاخص‏های تقارن کاریوتیپی برای همه گونه‌ها تعیین شد.
