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.
