Cluster Analysis of Ranunculus Species
##plugins.themes.bootstrap3.article.main##
Abstract
The aim of the experiment was to examine whether the morphological characters of eleven species of Ranunculus
collected from a number of populations were in agreement with the genetic data (isozyme). The method used in this study was polyacrilamide gel electrophoresis using peroxides, estarase, malate dehydrogenase, and acid phosphatase enzymes. The results showed that cluster analysis based on isozyme data have given a good support to classification of eleven species based on morphological groups. This study concluded that in certain species each morphological variation was profit to be genetically based.
