Abstract:: Phacelia capitata Rruckeberg is a member of the Phacelia magellanica polyploid complex (species group Magellanicae), a group of wide-ranging, polymorphic perennials in western North America related to the South American P. secunda (= P. magellanica). The purpose of this project was to determine, to the extent possible, the interrelationships of...

Abstract:: Astragalus diaphanus is a rare plant endemic to the John Day River drainage of north-central Oregon. This species has several interesting features, including the dimorphism of its fruit and its geographical isolation from the two nearest taxonomically related species, which occur in Colorado. This study addressed the species' distribution and...

Abstract:: A study was made of the subgenus Genuini of the genus Juncus in the Pacific States, California, Oregon and Washington. Extensive morphological comparisons, geographical distributions, habitat differences and observations of apparent presence or absence of natural hybrids provided the major data sources. Cytological studies were made, but were inconclusive. Eleven...

Abstract:: A systematic study was made of the species comprising Phacelia section Miltitzia. These species, which are commonly found in the Great Basin physiographic province of western North America, are distinguished from other members of Phacelia by their yellow, marcescent corollas and their transversely corrugated seeds. This project utilized morphological, cytological,...

Abstract:: A cytogeographical study was made of populations of tetraploid (n=18) and hexaploid (n=27) Achillea millefolium (Compositae- Anthemideae) from the Pacific Coast states. There is a complex distributional pattern, involving overlapping ranges, mixed populations, migration of one form into areas occuplied by the other, pentaploid hybrids, and septaploid and octoploid plants....

Creator:: Guppy, Geraldine Anne Allen
Abstract:: Species relationships were investigated in a western North American polyploid complex in the genus Aster (Asteraceae). A combination of cytological, genetical, chemical, morphological and numerical approaches was employed. Fifteen presently recognized species were included in the study, and populations were sampled throughout most of the range of the group. Living...
