In this study, morphological and
anatomical features of two morphologically similar species (Iris peshmeniana Güner & T. Hall. and
Iris aucheri (Baker) Sealy) within
the Scorpiris Spach subgenus (Juno iris) of the genus Iris
L. were determined and similarities and differences between the two species
were discussed. Iris peshmeniana is endemic to Tu...

... dark contents. Margins of parenchyma cells are apparently undulated. Endoderma and pericycle are single layered and parenchymatic. The thickness in endodermal cells are three sided and oriented to pericycle. There is no thickness towards cortex. Xylem has 8-10 strands and phloem elements are obvious. In the pith region, there is one large trachea (Fig. ...

Pericycle is single layered, oval shaped and parenchymatic. Phloem is obvious, xylem has 9-11strands. There are metaxylem elements in the center of the root (Fig. 3B). The pith area is absent in the root. There are three large trachea in the ...

... parviflorum, the crystal granules were not seen in the epidermis cells of M. amasiensis. Kandemir et al. (2019), Kandemir (2019) reported that the presence of crystal granules in the epidermis cells of the leaves could be used as important characters in the taxonomy of plant species. There are not variable in aspects of midrib region of two taxa. ...
The anatomical, ecological and trichome micro-morphological features of two taxa (Marrubium amasiensis and Marrubium parviflorum subsp. parviflorum) belonging to the genus Marrubium were determined and these features were compared. M. amasiensis is endemic and is distributed only around Amasya in Türkiye. In anatomical examinations, cross sections were taken from the root, stem, petiole, leaves and surface sections were taken from stem, petiole, the lower and upper surfaces of the leaves. When the anatomical findings were examined, multi-layered lamellar collenchyma layer was encountered at the corners of the stem. The studied taxa have equifacial leaves in terms of mesophyll structure. Stomata of M. amasiensis are anomocytic and rarely anisocytic type, while stomata of M. parviflorum subsp. parviflorum are anomocytic type. The margins of the adjacent cells of the stomata in both taxa are very undulate. Eglandular and glandular trichomes were seen on vegetative organs of the two taxa. Eglandular trichomes are stellate, dendroid, marrubioid and simple types, while glandular trichomes are capitate and peltate types. Dense stellate trichomes were found in the vegetative organs of the studied taxa. Since the head and stalk cell numbers of capitate trichomes showed variation, these trichomes were divided into subtypes. Soil samples were taken during flowering periods of taxa, physical and chemical properties were determined. Some similarities and differences were determined in the anatomical, ecological and trichome micro-morphological features of the studied two taxa. It has been emphasized that these different features will be used as valuable taxonomic characters in distinguishing of the two taxa.
... In another research, the anatomic features of the leaves of eight species of Iris were compared and their relationships were determined. The species I. pamphylica, I. histrioides, I. celikii, I. danfordiae, I. histrio ssp., I. pamphylica, I. histrioides, I. celikii, histrio ssp., I. aintabensis, I. bakeriana, I. aintabensis and I. histrio are exclusive native to Turkey (Kandemir, 2019). ...
... The seed production was calculated based on the number of seed capsules per inflorescence. All collected samples were identified according to the keys found in the plant flora (Wendelbo, 1977;Ghahraman, 1998;Al Maarri et al., 2017;Kandemir, 2019;, Azimi, 2021. ...
... The purple-white colors of Iris songaric, Iris songarica 2, and Iris songarica 3 were divided into two separate groups which can be due to the environment effects, geographical area and climate of the habitat of two different areas. Kandemir (2019) found that the natural selection (including weather conditions and geographical separation) caused the differentiation among the populations. ...
Nowadays, the flower industry is growing so fast that its development requires introducing new varieties to the flower market. Iran is the habitat of numerous species of wild plants that are among the valuable genetics in the breeding process. The identification of native Iris species, investigation of morphological diversity, and distribution method have a significant effect on the introduction of this flower as new and superior cultivars cut flower and bedding plant. The documentation of the most important habitats of Iris in Arak province, identification of morphological characteristics and correlation determination of morphological traits are the most important aims of this research. The results showed that there is a correlation between some of the traits. The highest positive correlation was related to the height of flower and length of the leaf, length of the flowering stem and the length of the leaf and the height of the flower and the length of the flowering stem. The ecotypes of Iris sp. were divided into six groups. Based on the results of the cluster diagram, the bulbous species were separated from rhizome species. Generally, due to the color diversity of Iris sp. and unique beauty of the flowers and the resistance of the native species, they can be used as native foundations. Due to the prominent traits such as high durability of Iris meda, odor of I. hymernospatha Subsp. leptoneura and color diversity of I. persica, I. songarica and height of I. spuria, they can be used to introduce new ornamental species. Iris spuria is the most suitable genotype because of the high height, large flower, high durability, and beautiful flower.
