Ecological and Morphological Differentiation of Populations of the Species Fragaria Vesca L. In Tuzla Area and Its Environment

Abstract

On ecologically different habitats we collected 30 individuals from each population of the species Fragaria vesca. Morphological variability was observed on the basis of 10 populations and 300 individuals. All specimens were neatly stored in herbarium. Live materials of the selected species of the genus Fragaria (Fragaria vesca) were investigated in order to determine the most variable and most consistent morphological character, depending on environmental factors under which it has developed. The results show a high degree of variability of morphometric characters for parameters: total length of plants with flowers, floral handle length and petiole length of leaf rosettes.

Na ekološki različitim staništima prikupljeno je po 30 individua iz populacije vrste Fragaria vesca. Morfološka vaijabilnost je sagledana na osnovu 10 lokacija i 300 jedinki. Sve jedinke su uredno pohranjene u herbarijumu. Živi materijali odabranih vrsta roda Fragaria (Fragaria vesca) su istraženi s ciljem da se odredi najvarijabilniji i najkonzistentniji morfološki karakter, u zavisnosti od ekoloških faktora pod kojima se razvijao. Utvrđen je visok stepen varijabilnosti morfometrijskih karaktera za parametre: totalna dužina biljke sa cvjetovima, dužinu cvjetne drške i dužinu lisne drške lista rozete.
