Abstract

Abstract: The chromosome numbers and karyotypes of Rheum tanguticum in 5 populations were firstly reported in this paper. The results are as follows: karyotype formulae of DW, KQ and DK populations are all 2n = 2x = 22 = 2sm + 20m; JK population is 2n = 2x = 22 = 20m+ 2M; SP population is 2n = 2x = 22 = 2sm + 18m+ 2M . The karyotypes of DW, KQ and JK populations belong to 1A type while DK and SP populations belong to 2A type . The result of Q cluster analysis of five populations shows that the karyotypes of 5 populations differentiate in some degree , which may be caused by different habitats .

Key words: Rheum tanguticum
