Abstract | ||
Numerical study of different taxonomic characters for species Trifolium L. genus in Iraq , this study is the first in Iraq . The numbers of species and var. are 28 and the characters studies include morphological , anatomical , pollen grain , some of chemical characters and chromosomes number . In this study selective 12 characters to draw polygonal graphs and 60 characters to know percent of similarity and draw the dendrogram for species which studies . The results showed similarity and different between species in polygonal graphs , high similarity appeared between two varaity T. stellatum var. adpressum and T. stellatum var. adpressum . Similarity percent between species 72% to 38% , high percent found between two var. T. tomentosum var. tomentosum and T. tomentosum var. glabrescens while low percent reported in species T. subterraenum . The dendrogram appeared variance in similarity percent between species, this result reported that species of genus Trifolium very heterogenous | ||
