Phylogenetic and cytobiological relationships in the Campanula edulis Forssk. and C. bordesiana Maire complex (Campanulaceae).

Morphological and caryological studies on the Campanula edulis Forssk. complexe and C. bordesiana Maire subsp. bordesiana show : 1) relationship between the composants of the former group with a well marked polymorphism independently of the chromosomical races ; 2) a morphological homogeneity within the latter with a dodecaploid chromosome number (2n = 84). The evolutive significance of this number 2n = 84 may be different with a neopolyploid category for the first and a paleopolyploid concerning the second group.
