Artemisia kurramensisの外部形態について

抄録

External morphology of 84 individuals of Artemisia kurramensis, cultivated experimentally, was examined (May to November, 1957). It was thereby observed that the domestic species differed from the original description of this plant by Qazilbash in the point of color of young, and grown leaves, tubulous flowers, and number of involucral scales. Further detailed examinations were made on the outward appearance, height, color of stems, leaves, and petals, number of stipules, size of tubulous flower, number of involucral scales and tubulous flowers in one caput, number of chromosome number in pollen mother cell and santonin content in 14 individuals (April to November, 1960). The domestic strains seem to be divisible into three strains by the number of tubulous flowers in one caput, color of leaves, stems, and petals and number of involucral scales.
