Sambucus (Adoxaceae) is a tall tree-like shrub distributed throughout temperate and subtropical regions in Europe, Asia, North Africa and North America. Since there is not any morphological and anatomical comprehensive study on Sambucus species in Iran and Sambucus nigra is located in the Arasbaran region with very limited distribution, we have encouraged studying the patterns of morphological variation and anatomical structure among Sambucus taxa. In this study, the morphological and anatomical structure of 18 populations from two species of Sambucus (S. ebulus and S. nigra) has been considered to evaluate the relationships in this genus. In total, nine quantitative and nine qualitative morphological features were evaluated and measured. Ward’s dendrogram showed two main clusters. The first cluster is comp.. Read More»
