Türkiye?deki meşe (Quercus L.) palamutlarının morfometrik analizi

Morphometric analyses of 14 Turkish oak (Quercus L.) species were carried out using both quantitative and qualitative acorns? characters. The materials were collected from 47 populations representing different regions of Turkey.First, investigation of the usefulness of chosen characters was tested for classification of genus Quercus L. Second, classifications of traditional studies were compared in order to show the possible congruency of groupings resulted from the morphometric analyses. Finally, it was intended to indicate the spectrum of variation within the quantitative characters chosen for the study.
