Numerical Comparative Hairs of Some Lamiaceae Taxa Collected from Turkey

Comparação Numérica de Pelos de Alguns Táxons de Lamiaceae Coletadas na Turquia

ABSTRACT

In this study, glandular and aglandular hairs were examined and compared numerically in the vegatative and reproductive organs of Salvia viridis, Salvia verticillata subsp. amasiaca, Salvia virgata, Phlomis pungens var. pungen, Phlomis pungens var. hispida, Stachys cretica subsp. anatolica, Stachys cretica subsp. smyrnaea, Teucrium scordium subsp. scordioides. It has been observed that all taxa which are collected Western and Northern Anatolia have glandular hairs and aglandular hairs of various shapes, size and modes of secretion. The hairs variations in eight Lamiaceae taxa were been investigated by means of numerical methods (Analysis of variance and Pearson correlation). It was also found that the results from numerical analysis of the hairs characters can provide additional evidences for the recognition of the taxa.
